Pros: Cables, carrying case included. Screen can be rotated for many different viewing angles.

Cons: Pricier than some other models.

Cons: doesn't come with a padded case like other models,

Review: My girlfriend went into the hospital for surgery and I thought it would be a great idea if she had a portable dvd player. I purchased a 7" Polaroid and surprised her at the hospital with it. We watched a bit of the movie and then it konked out. 3 hours ...

Pros: What a great toy this is for a family on the road!

Cons: Children aren't always careful with electronics -- that's why we no longer have this item.

Review: Santa brought this DVD player to my girls last Christmas, and it was a much-loved item for 18 months before it went to the great junkyard in the sky. Sadly, the machine was still in working condition: the DVD player met an untimely end when a child ...

Cons: Sound is tinny, plastic feel but sturdy, Only NTSC format.

The Bottom Line: Excellent overall DVD player, sound could be better.

Pros: Great big screen. Nice sound. Easy controls.

Cons: No Anti-shock. Cheap plastic cover over the DVD. Cheap battery connection.

Review: I bought one last September so I could catch up on my DVD's during my train ride in the morning and afternoon. I love the big screen, the sound is awesome. However, within the first month, the locking mechanism which holds on the battery snapped off. Not ...

Pros: Great set-up, many accessories, perfect for car and some home use!

Cons: Not durable, battery slides off easily, stopped after 10 months of use!

The Bottom Line: A great package, but not durable. I would look for something that would last longer, or really watch the children if they use it!

Review: We too got this as a Christmas gift! The dvd player was great. You can rotate the screen to hang it from your car roof (if you figure out how to rig it up there!). It comes with all the cases, cords, and accessories necessary to either play in the house, ...

Pros: Picture, decent sound, 3-hour battery.

Cons: DURABILITY!

Review: I would have to agree with others here. Great picture, decent sound, but alas, ours died right at the 1-year mark, just after the warranty expired. With it's purpose being that of entertaining the kids on the road, it did the job great, but the ...

Pros: It was nice while it lasted.

Cons: For the price of the player you should be getting a high quality product!

Review: I purchased on May 9th after reading reviews saying this is a great player for the price. In the beginning of Sept. the motor that spins the dvd started dying and dvds stopped playing in the player. I contacted Polaroid about the warranty and they said ...
