These are easy to install, and great to keep the kids entertained. Very easy to use and can be moved from vehicle to vehicle.

I PURCHASED THE PRODUCT AND THE BATTERY FOR AN ADDITIONAL $40 IT STOPPED WORKING NOW POLAROID WONT COVER ME FOR EITHER PRODUCT THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT, THIS WAS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF MONEY EVER!!!!

I purchased 2 of the Polaroid PDM-2727 last year. One for my family and the other as a gift. The color and clarity of the 7" screen is superb. Sound quality too is very good. It keeps the kids entertained during long trips in the car. My only quams about this DVD player is that the provided cables are too short to run under the carpet, so you have to run the cables across the headrests, and there are too many buttons on the unit, which makes it difficult to push the correct button while driving. My kids are careful when they put DVDs in and out of the player, but after 6 months of almost daily use, one of the plastic hinges on the door that houses the DVD/CD broke. Short of replacing the door, there's no way to replace the hinge and without this door, the DVD won't play. Shortly after that, the player had difficulty recognizing a DVD was in the unit, and wouldn't play. It eventually stopped working altogether. I believe the ribbon cable is damaged. Anyway, it was great while it lasted and I'm now looking for either a replacement for the damaged master unit, or a new player set although I don't need the slave DVD. The slave unit serves solely as a second monitor,so it's not subject to the same wear and tear as the master which receives the DVD/CD.

We've had these for 18 months or so now, but only had used them one time on a trip until recently. We pulled them out and installed them again for another trip. They have worked great and allow each kid to eaither watch a movie, or one can watch a movie the other can play games. They were easy to install both times and have a nice travel bag included. Also headphones which was a plus !

Used this system on a one hour trip and it worked wonderfully. On the second trip the slave screen died and shortly after the master unit quit.
Returned it to Target for refund. Save up your money to buy a good one.
