Great Product In Use for 4+ years July 5, 2008 We purchased the unit with an extra screen to survive a 10 hour drive with 2 kids back in Fall 2003. It still works great and still keeps the kids quiet. Cost a lot more back then but I am please to say we have gotten our money's worth many times over. Great Purchase.
Can't navigate DVD's without remote August 7, 2007 I have had this for a while and gotten some good use out of it. However, once the remote died (It would cost $75 to replace) I have been unable to watch DVD's satisfactorily. There are buttons on the unit for going forward and back a scene, but no menu button and no buttons that let you navigate around menus (also no fast forward or rewind buttons). I tried to watch TV collections, but with some of them it is now impossible to view anything but the first show. If not for this issue, I would probably give the item four stars because of its versatility.
Not happy because of.. March 19, 2007 I was happy when I bought this, as this is very compact and useful to play both casette and dvd. But sooner, the casette player stopped working if I hookup the LCD monitor (I am thinking that this is because of the power input is not sufficient to play both LCD monitor as well as Casette). However, I can play DVD and view it in the LCD monitor.
If I do not use the attached LCD monitor, but redirect the output to a regular TV, then Casette works with out any problem.
When I contacted Audiovox (at probably 13th or 14th month), they told it is not covered under warranty so the flat price is around 100 dollars (did not remember exact amount), plus shipping charges.
So, did not opt to repair it and kept quiet.

this the second one I bought. The first one came with an inoperable vcp (VCR without ability to record). I sent it back and got a refund. I bought the second one and the dvd did not "read' the dvds. This time I sent it back to Audiovox and paid the 14.00 for shipping. They paid for the return shipping and it has been working well since that time. Overall it is good for us to have both formats. The unit comes with great carrying bags and protective wrap for the screen. You have many options on how to atach it in your vehicle.
Disappointed us... October 25, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have owned this product for about a year now. I also purchased the extra screen so each of my children would have their own to view. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this product. Within about 2 months, the second screen quit working. Within approximately 4 months the DVD player stopped altogether. Now we're stuck with only the VHS portion of the player and one screen. It's better than nothing, but for what we spent on both items, it should have held up longer. And we've been very gentle with them too. Our previous vehicle had a dealership-installed system in it and I was hoping to get the same effect with this in our new SUV. Sorry to say, I think we should have opted for the installed system. We'll know for next time. :/
