This unit is awesome! Sound is crisp, clear, and can be heard over road noise! Picture is excellent! Only down is the wires! Wish it was wireless! Great product though for the price! Couldn't beat it!

I purchased this for our family vacation this year. We drove from Arkansas to Washington DC. And my wife and daughter watched this 70% of time while we were traveling in the car. They loved it. It was easy to setup and easy to take down while out of the car. The picture was great and sound was ok with out head phones I recomind using headphones. Well worth the money. Makes a long trip seem much shorter.

This was easy to set up and operate. The sound and picture are good. It works great to keep the grandkids entertained when driving. My single complaint is that the on/off switch is fragile and broke. I now have to turn it off and on with a precision screw driver.

Picture quality is great, and is an ease to use even for my 7yr old. Only con I see is the volume control could go louder, even when headphones are plugged in. Overall great setup..

large screens make it nice but the plastic frame is cheap feeling and scratches very easily. neither screen comes with a portable battery so you always have to have it plugged in to work, either car charger or 110 volt plug. spend a little more for one that you can take anywhere and can play different movies on each screen simultaneously.

Our older road trip DVD player set died, so I bought this to replace it. The picture quality is decent. My only issue is the strap for the DVD player is not quite long enough. The strap doesn't always catch right the first time. Otherwise connections were easy and the player offers plenty of buttons to control the device.

This is the second system I have purchased for the grandkids to enjoy when they travel with me. The first system was used constantly and after replacing the car adapter three times, I decided to purchase the new system. The screen size is great and sound quality good. A must have for traveling with children.

In my minivan the wires were short so the dvd player couldn't be used in the very back seats. Definitely, better suited for smaller cars. The sound and picture quality are good. The wires do not fit tight so keeps coming off.

The Phillips 9" Dual DVD Player is a great addition to my wife's new car. It most definitely keeps our grand kids busy watching their favorite movies on short and long trips. The screens are very clear and it has good sound as well. Glad I bought it.

We traded in a suburban that had a DVD player for one that didn't, well we decided to try these...set up is super easy and they work just fine for the kids, but the cords can be a mess so that be the downside.

Found this to be easy to use and very convenient for those long road trips to keep the kids entertained. With these and our current vehicles we are even able to integrate it into our existing stereo systems.

The DVD player worked great for my grandkids. We took a long trip for Thanksgiving and I must say it was one of the best long car trips we have had. I would definitely recommend.

We purchased this for a long drive trip (10 hours each way) for the kids to sit and watch videos in the back on the car (more importantly, to keep them occupied). It worked like a charm. So far, have played several hours of videos and have not encountered any issues. Will update after using it for a longer period.

Decent Picture... Slow loading DVD, better sound than many other portables, play button & stop button are a bit sloppy feeling but work fine, wire to play both screens should be longer so you can tuck & hide, prefer a remote but doesn't have one. I have gone through many others, so far this is the best one for a great price... Definitely could use improvements though and truthfully the next model up isn't really any different except more money and a different type of display screen.

This is a great dvd player for my two kids 6 and 3. Thy have similar taste in movies so they dont mid watching the same dvd. Its easy to take in and out of the car. My 6 year old can work the controls on the front of the main dvd player. This has been a life save on long car trips.

I was excited to buy my son this DVD player. I hooked it up but the second screen was very vague, showing nothing but a static picture. So I went back to see if they could re-wire it in a way that the second screen would show but it didn't so they offered an exchange. Unfortunately, the second set's slave screen showed no picture at all, only sound.
