An Impulse Purchase That Worked

bygamblin_man Jul 30, 2005
44 Helpfuls 45 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 3 Comments
Pros Good price point, good screen size and resolution
Cons A lot of plastic, some seeming flimsy
Recommended it? Yes

My purchasing style varies from heavy and near never-ending research to walking by something and grabbing it without much thought. My purchase of the Polaroid PDV-0820T Portable DVD Player with Screen was all the way over to the impulse side. I had thought about a portable DVD player but never... Read full review »

Pros Screen rotation, compact car bag that attatches to headrest, 12 month limited warranty

Recommended it? No

I bought this player 10 months ago. It was great at first. I really liked the 8in. screen as opposed to the 7in. I liked the clean compact way the unit attaches on the back of the headrest. My only original gripe was the sound quality, it really is too low. It is barely loud enough for my son by... Read full review »

Pros Functionality, Swivel Screen, Large Screen, Dual Headphone Jacks, and A/V in AND out.
Cons Most features require use of remote control.
Recommended it? Yes

After doing considerable research, and annoying many sales people by forcing them to perform multiple and lengthy product demos, we chose the Polariod PDV-0820. It's functionality and large screen made it our choice. The picture quality is not excellent, but it is very good when compared to any 8"... Read full review »

Pros 8" Swivel screen, remote, good picture.
Cons Very flimsy, stopped working after 25-30 uses. Polaroid will not stand behind product.
Recommended it? No

I initially paid $250 with a $50 rebate. The unit worked fine during the initial 90 day period, however, I really didn't use the product but maybe 8-10 times during that time period. I purchased the unit in mid-December, '04, mainly for the up-coming summer travel season. Rotating screen was the... Read full review »

Both were the same problems they stop reading the dvds. It says no disc. I took alot better care of... Read full review »

Pros Picture was great while it lasted.
Cons Didn't last but 8 months.
Recommended it? No

The picture was great (for 8 months).

Be attentive when playing in folded position(mounted on back of headrest),the battery would get hot and cause the picture to go out. The picture would return when cooled, or in open/unfolded position.

Also, there were some functions that... Read full review »

Fragile player is cool when it works, but a paperweight when it doesn't.

Pros Swivel flat design, very portable, great in cars, plays well with others (in/out), etc.
Cons Picture not great when expanded to fit screen, unit seems a bit fragile; needs warranty!
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased two of these, new, off a seller on eBay a month ago. I really liked the idea of placing them on the back of the truck's headrests for the kids to watch. We used to have a portable video cassette player (VCP) that was suspended between the front seats, took up a lot of room had a... Read full review »

Pros Easy to use, good quality
Cons None so far
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this for my children, we travel a lot and it comes really handy. One of the best buys so far, it works great, my 3 year old operates it himself so it says a lot about how easy is to operate and how sturdy it is. Read full review »
