Don't know why so many other people got such a short lifespan out of theirs, although I'm extremely gentle with portable electronics.I know they can stop working if you drop them once or even jolt them slightly. I bought this product on clearance at Sears about 5 years ago. It still works great and has a very clear picture, although I prefer to use earbuds for better sound. It works great for power outages to have something to watch, but the battery life is only about 1.5 hours per charge (not long enough to watch a movie). Luckily I was able to find a spare battery pack a couple of years ago.
I bought this for my grandson and enjoyed it myself then when my granddaughter was ill she could watch "The Wiggles" all by herself and it plays my picture CD's and CD's and DVD's. You don't get better than this present.and it has all the necessary cables with it. Wow.
I especially like the fact that.it will play PAL as well as NTSC DVDs. I bought mine for $215.00 almost 4 years ago, and it still works GREAT. I'm home now, and use it (still) as a backup machine. I was a long-haul truck driver, and I needed something that didn't take up too much space. I used it on my truck for 2 years, and it worked well even when the truck was moving (CDs, you know). However I never used the battery, never even took it out of the box, so I can't testify as to it. I LOVE THIS MACHINE.
Died after a few months at which time the battery only lasted an hour, not worth it.
The battery never held a charge. Sent message to customer service and never received a response. Wouldn't recommend this product or company.
