Excellent player, really great purchase!!
This DVD player is great for the road, and even at home when you don't want to be bothered. Unless the are much loud noises happening around you, the players' speakers work fine. It comes with all of the accesories you'd want, including a car outlet, wall adapter, remote, and the battery. It charges in under 4 hours, and plays for over 3 hours.
The player is sleek and so is the battery, but together are a bit bulky, not bad. Screen quality is good, great for a portable. Made of goo...

Very nice
This is actually my third portable DVD player, the first two being cheap brands. I can now say that brand name electronics are definitely better.
The first noticeable difference is that the unit itself is smaller and sleeker than the cheaper ones. I like that the exterior is black and the interior is silver. Also, the way the battery mounts on the bottom is much better than the ones that stick out the back.
The battery life is rated as 4 hours, and I would say it is a ve...

Nice machine, but...
I bought this player to replace my cheapo chinese Initial 5.8" portable dvd player. My application is straightforward (no DIVIX, memory sticks, etc), just viewing movies on the plane to kill time. I tested the units with 3 movies: "Miracle", "In Good Company" and "Black Hawk Down". Here's my take:
1. Build/ quality
The Toshiba is stunning. Beautiful metal top and control panel, nice buttons, high quality throughout. Although my Initial has served me well over the years, it i...

Sent it right back
I actually meant to order the Philips 7-incher (brighter screen, $20 cheaper, bulkier), but somehow I got confused when I placed the order...this one looked beautiful so I was pretty psyched anyway and was definitely going to keep it. I was planning on using this for work, as I get a lot of DVD's from clients - so I popped one of those in and guess what? It came up as "invalid disc". It's supposed to play the majority of formats, and I triple checked the disc in my other dvd players, and it w...

Buy anything other then this
Fell apart after 5 uses. Plastic fatigue at the back hinge. Very loud mechanical sounds at times at well. This was a product that felt like it was years old at time of purchase even tho it was brand new

Read before you buy this.
I ordered this unit as a birthday present for my 90 year old mother. Thought I would try it before taking it to her. It worked for 20 minutes. Then the screen went blank and stayed blank no matter what I tried. I've ordered so much from Amazon over the years and always could return if unhappy for any reason, so I hadn't paid attention to the reviews of the current online seller ANTonline. Beware! These people are unresponsive and uninterested. They would not accept a return or even reply ...

Great picture quality
I bought this item rather than the cheaper products advertised because I trust Toshiba and because the picture quality was better than average. Overall, I am very satisfied with the product. We have used it on several aiplane trips and my toddler is very entertained. We haven't had any problems with the mechanics of the player. We also bought a case (which I highly recommend) so that we have enough Baby Einstein to keep her happy to our destination. Also, the battery has never run out, and ...

user friendly
At first I was concerned that the screen would be too small, but for portability and travel it is a perfect size. Picture quality is excellent, sound is O.K. but earphones are must, for best listening. Battery plays a full length DVD with power to spare. Very user friendly, well designed with a very substantial feel. Make sure to order earphones and padded carrying case, since they are not included

Don't buy this one
I bought the Toshiba SD-P1700 portable DVD player as a birthday gift for my mom. This machine didn't work from the minute we turned it on. It would not read any of our DVDs. I either got the "Invalid Disk" message or if the machine did play the DVD, it would look seriously pixelated for a few seconds then would simply stop playing altogether. The DVDs, by the way, play just fine in my old Sony portable.
