Serious quality issue
We bought it for long driving trips but on the first trip out, the unit stopped working after 2-3 hours. No signal connecting the screen and the unit. Had to return it (after driving it all the way to southern Cal from bay area and then back). Couldn't figure out what the problem was. Screen was ok because it powered up.
Very compact (although it weighs a lot -- help with the bouncing of the road.)
Wish someone would update the unit. Sure is nice for the kids.

Maybe Not So Good
At first the Audiovox looks very good for the current low price, and since I don't know of any other product like it on the market I bought one. But after less than 2 months ownership the LCD display started flickering during play and at times the audio output is not even there until I start a DVD over a second time. If I had it to do over I think I would save my money!

Great choice if you have a large VHS Library as well as DVD
There are many more compact DVD units out there at this price but the built in VHS player meant we didn't need to replace all the kids classics at $10-$20 a title.
Great unit is you what VHS with DVD and can handle the size (SUV and Minivan ok). It's really a transportable home/car/hotel unit as it needs an external power supply.
A great feature when buying an additional screen means the kids can watch different movies ( one VHS one DVD) at the same time. Saves some heated discussions.
Great bundle but pass if you just want DVD.

Exceptional equipment for the price!
We love the unit. It's versatility was exactly what we were looking for in a portable unit. The ability to play both format simultaneously is awesome. The unit is a bit on the bulky side but it can be managed easily. We've place ours on the floor board of the second row seating....hooked the monitors on the driver and front passenger headrests. The picture and sound these monitors put out are great. The remote is easy to use and fully noted with what is what, etc. The carrying case is excellent with all its storage compartments for all the cords and hook ups. It plays CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes and MP3s with no problem. I have even been able to play recorded DVDs that I made from my home DVD recorder. The cost of our entire new unit was less than 150.00 and that included an extra monitor which I able to find for less than a hundred bucks. If you pay more than 200 dollars for this unit...you have paid too much. There are tons of them out on the internet for less....and BRAND NEW at that! eBay stores has them up for offer at this price. I did my homework when it came to searching for this unit. I can't believe some retailers and wholesalers are still trying to sell it at the huge price of 500.00 and up. Look around -- you will be glad you did. My kids love this unit. We have tons of vhs tapes that we were about to just scrap and repurchase the dvd format ... thank goodness we didn't. You can use the unit in the house as an additional dvd/video player. We use it when we go camping in our camper. When we travel I bring it into the hotel room so the kids can still enjoy it. Heck, it's used just about everyday. I've had no problems with overheating when traveling on long trips. The adapter is long enough to reach the back seat or back cargo space cigarette lighter. Oh by the way...did I mention that you can also hook up a video game system. How cook is that? My oldest plays videos while my youngest one is still watching movies. No more whining over who has control over who had the remote first! A great buy for our family.

Versatile system, does more than it claims!
We picked this up recently, along with an additional screen. The picture looks great and sound is good too. While hanging it between two seats in the van put it too close to my toddler twins in bulky car seats, we were able to set the base between the two front seats and have them look down. Now here's the fun part: not only does it play VHS and DVD (presumably CDs and MP3s as well), it will also play CD+G Karaoke discs, making it a portable Karaoke system with one screen for the performer and one for the audience! Can you beat that? And such a great price. I tested several brands of CD+G discs and they all worked except for one. It even played a copied disc. Another great thing about this system is its portability. While it may seem a little heavy, you're getting VHS, DVD, two TV screens, and all the cords and adapters you'll ever need. And everything is separately cased. How beautiful is that? I also love the fact that I can take it anywhere in the house to watch videos or practice Karaoke. Great fun and a great unit and system. Buy this now and enjoy for a long time!
