Good Value
(5 out of 5) by D. Mac on Aug 21, 2002 (Florida)i bought this dvd player to take overseas with me on an air force tdy and have nothing bad to say about it. i have watched a half dozen or so movies and experienced no skipping problems or any freezing up. the battery life is short but i use it mainly plugged in. very easy to hook to a regular tv. for the price i am very pleased with this product. screen size is fine for personal viewing

Not for mobile use
(1 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Sep 8, 2003We were looking for a cheap/flexible mobile dvd player. This is not it. The unit works fine untill you move it. It skips, and skips, and skips.....They should note that it is NOT for use in a moving vehicle (and why include a cigerette lighter adapter?) The good news...the vendor issued a return authorization with little hassle.

Hate it
(2 out of 5) by Kent Spann on Sep 8, 2003 (Fort Campbell, Kentucky United States)I bought this DVD player about a month ago and have been cursed with skipping and freezing. Sometimes it even cut back to the beginning of the DVD. The only reason it got 2 stars was because of the features it has. Believe you me Audiovox willbe getting a nasty gram from me. Word to the wise, find another DVD player.

Great Buy
(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Mar 7, 2002This is a great little machine, especially at the price. I'm amazed at the picture quality and found it very easy to use. It's especially handy to sit on the computer desk, given its small size, so you can watch movies while you work at the computer. Perfect for someone who wants to go DVD and have portability without spending a lot of money. Highly recommended.

Was it made in Russia?
(1 out of 5) by M. La Vean on Aug 20, 2002 (Michigan)I have owned this product now for about 8 months (it was a Christmas Present for my daughter). It's intended use was for traveling hence it has only been used occasionally.
However, I am sorry to report that it is falling apart and further it no longer plays a DVD...When you put one in it just says "reading" on the screen and the disc spins faster and faster until it is making a whirring noise so loud you turn it off before something weird happens. Call me old fashioned but I think a DVD player should be able to play DVDs.
Would I buy another Audiovox product? Well this is my first experience with one and I can say it was a total waste of money. I think it should have lasted much longer than 8 months of pretty easy use.
