Great to keep baby happy at restaurant

We got this as a gift from my father-in-law when we were flying cross-country with a new baby. It worked great when we needed it to keep her occupied on the plane. Since then, we have frequently taken it out to dinner with us and turned it on when we eat and can't use our hands to play with her and keep her busy. I love it!

I wish it had a battery life indicator on it to let us know when it needs charging or how much life is left in the battery so we can ration it if needed. Also, when camping, I tried setting it up FULLY open in the mesh pocket of her pack and play (pen) but when fully open, the picture goes off. Either that, or the button got pushed to make it think it was closed. Anyway, it didn't work for that purpose.

It's very portable and I regret when I forget to bring it to dinner with us now that she's not so easily entertained. Pair this with a Baby Einstein video, and it's a new parent's MUST HAVE! Just don't forget to charge it or bring the charger with you if you plan to run it for a long time. It doesn't hold a charge if left sitting on the shelf for a while. It's frustrating to have it die just when you were counting on it. But, now that I KNOW it does that, I know to charge it more often, and especially before we go out to a nice dinner.

The sound is fairly low in a loud place, but the picture is really what keeps her content, so that hasn't mattered. Headphones are out of the question for a 14 month old! :)

We even used it in the nursery for a while when we needed more sleep and she was getting up too early. Hooked this baby up to a little TV and let it run on repeat in the early morning and she was happy as a clam until we came around to the land of the living with our little lark.

I love this thing and thank my father-in-law for it all the time! THANKS JIM!!!!!

A great little player for the price!

I bought this to pass the time while flying since I travel often. Used it for the first time today and it worked great! The picture is clear, I had no problems with freezing as others have mentioned. I bought decent headphones so the sound is very good. The only thing I can say is that the guy next to me on the plane had one with just a little bigger screen, made me think I should have gone with the 8". But all in all, so far so good!
