Good value, but and playing time is exaggerated

The main reason I bought this unit was its price, as well as the promise of having over 2 hours of playing before recharging the battery.
I was disappointed to learn that, after a full charge, I was only able to play the DVD for an hour and fifteen minutes before the low-battery light began to blink.
I may buy an additional battery to have as a spare, but it is not simple or quick to replace the battery. I did not find the unit flimsy and have not had the electrical problems that other reviewers have described.
Overall, it's a good, economical unit with some minor drawbacks.

Child hazardous product. Electric circuit burning on plane.

Keep away from this product. Burning smell on plane only after few weeks occasional use. Child hazardous. It might be comforting for Kolby to see the exploding DELL laptop with Sony battery. After all, one can still turned off the unit and took off the battery when smells burning circuit from inside unit. However, other passengers on flight may be scared as hell. Again, never trust single positive comment on PriceGrabber! May just be a phony company man.

Flimsey Portable DVD player

I did not like this DVD player because the DVD player felt too flimsey (easily broken if you are not extremely careful). When the DVD loads, a buzzing nose is annoyingly too high over the movie volume. The Coby 7" is more sturdier than the Coby 10" portable DVD player.
