DURABRAND PVS1960 DVD PLAYER
Peaceful vacation travel!
We got this right before we headed out on vacation.  We didn't even want to attempt to entertain our 14 month old daughter for 14+ hours on our own.  She is NOT a car kid...she hates to be in her seat or the car for that matter fo rmore than 15 minutes at a time.  So we knew we would need some help and a friend suggested a portable DVD system and some of her favorite shows. <br /> <br />So we started checking them out.  We wanted a compact unit that wouldn't take up too much room in the back of our SUV becasue we'd have her bag and toys back there too.  We also wanted dual screens as we know we'll need it once our soon to be 2nd child becomes a foward facer.  We also wanted something easy to install and remove so we could move it between cars.  This unit was perfect for all of that!   <br /> <br />It hooked up in minutes and we never even opened the directions booklet.  And it can be moved from one car to the other in a snap.  It fits perfectly and securely in both our SUV and car.  The monitors to the headrests and the player either under the seat or in the pocket on the back of the seat. It never once skipped the entire time we were on vacation and we hit some very rough roads at times! <br /> <br />The remote is also a great feature.  I can pop in one of her DVD's and once it's over either start it again or turn the unit off.  I can also pause it (in effect muting the sound) when we are in line ordering food or at the bank.  Plus it came in handy when we had to use this setup in our hotel room.  The hotel had no Nick Jr, Disney or PBS so we had to use this in the room during our down time. <br /> <br />This system more than paid for itself the first 10 days that we had it!  We enjoyed a relaxing vacation including the car ride there and back.       <br /> <br />
