we used it for a 10 hr trip. it worked fine. based on different reviews (mostly bad) I was skeptical about the performance of this product. But luckily it worked for us. It is right now collecting dust. Hopefully it will work in our next trip.

We've had our Axion DVD player for a few months now, and it is fantastic! The dual screens are wonderful. I don't know how we would cope with only one screen. The quality isn't the best out there, but it works well enough for the kids. No complaints about it at all!

My children and I are very pleased with the product. They can operate it with parental intervention. It's what we needed.

After reading all the reviews bashing portable DVD units and not finding any that consistently got good marks, I didn't have high hopes. But this one seemed to get the best reviews in the write-ups and we decided to give it a whirl. We used it on a 2,500 mile, 16 day trip and it performed prefectly. It was nice to have the remote control and the carrying case was fabulous, so we could stow the unit during the trip.
The one thought I have for all DVD manufacturers is that it would be helpful to have on the actual unit that plays the DVD or on the remote a small screen that shows what you are looking at. This was bought for a 1 and 3 year old to watch and they aren't going to be manning the remote, so it was a bit of a challenge to curl around to the back seat to get some of the shows going that didn't 'auto play'. The logisitcs of essentially providing a 3rd screen are difficult enough that I still think it deserves 5 stars. I like the tilt screen and being able to adjust the brightness too.
Extremely easy to set up--we did it on the fly w/o instructions.
 Total Piece of Junk!! September 2, 2008

I bought this product in spite of all the negative reviews. That was a bad idea. The player worked for about the first 45 minutes we used it, and then it stopped working consistently after that. We put in the first movie which played at first, but then it just froze on the screen and never resumed playing. We turned the unit off and back on and tried to start over. When we did this, the unit decided that it couldn't recognize that there was a disc in the player. We tried several different movies with the same result. We tried the original movie over again and it eventually started to play again. However, it would only play for a few minutes before it would freeze-up again. I thought it was freezing up because of the car ride. However, we plugged it into a TV in the house, and the player did the exact same thing. It is a total piece of junk. I hope Amazon stops selling this unit with so much negative feedback.
