(2 out of 5) by E. VanDolah on Dec 20, 2007 (Parrish, FL)I purchased this DVD player to keep my toddler entertained during a long car trip. It was quirky right from the beginning. A few (brand new) DVDs would not play at all on this device. Some other DVDs would play but would cut in and out during playback. I also found it difficult to get back to the main menu at times. I had to pull the car over repeatedly so that I could climb into the back seat to troubleshoot this player. This made our long car trip take much longer!
average player, excellent mount
(4 out of 5) by Robert Orleth on Apr 26, 2007 (Bellevue, WA, USA)The player doesn't strike me as any different from other low-cost players, but the headrest mount is brilliant. The connector to the cigarette lighter DC supply fell apart, though I am not positive whether it did that on it's own or whether little fingers took it apart.
Hard to get satisfactory customer help
(2 out of 5) by Bobbie A. Pratt on Feb 9, 2007 (Edinburg, PA)So far the DVD player is working fine and the attachment to seat is great.Have only used it on two long car trips. Wanted to get a battery for it so she could watch it out of the car but am really having a difficult time doing so. They say it's available but have had no luck getting them to tell me how to get one. Customer service for this item has been less than satisfactory and I would never buy another nextar product.
Loved it, but it really did die after 1 car trip
(2 out of 5) by Avid DVD fan on Feb 5, 2007 (SF Bay Area, CA)Thought it was great. As discussed by other reviewers, the mounting is awesome. Can't believe it just stopped working. Will try to exchange it and see what happens.
Also, it does not come with a battery. That is extra $$$. We thought that was a little weird.
Update: We received a replacement unit. Also bought the extra battery. Took this to Europe and it worked well, has also worked well in many subsequent car trips. increased rating from 2-star to 3-star.

Nextar mobile dvd player
(5 out of 5) by Kelly Scherr on Jan 10, 2007 (Menomonie, WI)LOVE IT! We mainly purchased it because of how it can mount to the back of our seat. It is extremely easy to mount and to take out. We take it out quite often due to the cold weather. I love how it mounts it's very sturdy and both kids can watch a show and there is no bumping or having it move around. It has excellent sound quality! Very, very pleased.
