Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Unit just arrived yesterday. First impressions are good. I didn't buy it for stellar electronics and video; I bought it for functionality and accessories to entertain my kids. With that in mind, it has met my expectations nicely. Tried a DVD and a CD and played them fine.
Comes with the cords and wires needed to offer input or output to the unit, power cables, remote control, and battery. One bonus was that it came w/ a case and straps! The selling info doesn't point this out. The case is large enough to hold the unit, all of its accessories, and a few DVD's.
The rating would have been 5 stars had the electronics been great as well; but as I said I didn't buy it for that. The picture is adequate, but not great. And angled viewing of the LCD could be better. Lastly, the speaker's sound is so-so, but then again my kids won't care. Besides, I have my home theater system if I want 'real' electronics anyways.
Overall, quite a nice system for the money.

Unit is still performing perfectly. Has even withstood a few bumps and bruises along the way from my kids. Don't lose the credit card remote because not all (but most) functionality is on the unit's buttons. (Try stopping a DVD when the unit is at a menu selection - the down button doubles as the 'stop' button and thus lowers the menu selection by one rather than stopping the DVD.)
