Entertain your back seat passengers with the RCA 9 Dual Screen Mobile DVD System. This dual screen system comprises of one 9" LCD screen with built-in DVD Player and one 9" LCD monitor that can be connected to the DVD players AV output (AV cable included). Once attached to the headrest (mounting kit included), passengers can watch the same movie on both screens or use the 9 LCD monitor for video game systems, camcorders and other AV products. One remote control (with battery) is included.
Just as I expected. Same problems with power cord not being long enough. Would reengineer the way the power cord goes to the monitor then to the player. It should be the reverse. Also the on/off switch on the player should turn the power off of both units. It is great that both units have a volume control. We kept the player in the front seat where we had control and placed the monitor on the headrest in front of our 2yo grandson. Worked great for us.

My son got this as a gift for his first birthday. He loved watching it on long car rides and it worked well for a few months. It started freezing up and then just stopped working. Didn't even last 8 months!! I would NOT buy this product. Spend a few more bucks and get a better brand!

We used his product for a road trip for Thanksgiving and it worked well. Unlike the earlier version of this product, this dvd player will allow you to push stop, turn the machine off, and resume at the same spot where you pushed stop when you turn the machine back on. The sound was great although I would recommed headphones. The picture quality was excellent.

Simple, effective and reasonable quality overall, though the way they wires connect to each unit are a bit odd and causes screen location difficulty inside vehicles.

We should have stuck with the original plan and went to Best Buy. Right out of the box they didn't work. The screen said "open" even when there was a disc in and the cover closed. They look cheap, feel cheap, are cheap. Do NOT waste your time or money!

Review 6 for RCA 9" Dual Screen Mobile DVD Player
Short cables, non-sensical controls

I use units like this in a crossover SUV for my three year old and four year old on long trips. There are several features that make these units a very poor value: - power cabling is daisy chained (in the wrong order) - cables are too short - volume controls are on the units, not the remote - the player-unit is not slot-loading
With the daisy chained power cabling, the power cable *must* run from the non-player unit first, and then the linking cable provides power to the player unit. We put the non-player unit in the back row of our three-row vehicle, however. So, the power cable is not long enough for us to reach from the second row to the non-player unit. Therefore, we can't easily unplug the power from the parents' seats in the front row.
Second, the cables are too short and can not reach across rows. The "linking" cable will be up in the air ready to snag kids when they climb in, or annoy them by always brushing them when they are sitting. As a side effect of the daisy chain, you can not turn the on-off switch to off and de-power both players; you have to physically unplug from the power outlet.
Third, the volume controls are on the unit not the remote. As a result, the parent can not control volume for the kids in the back. Instead, the kids will have to learn how. Worse still, the volume control on the non-player unit is two of three buttons. Good luck to our daughter to change volume and not video settings.
As a last point, the CD is not slot loading. The flip down door is a nuisance and quite likely to break (as happened on our first player).
I wonder if the engineers ever watched a family use their units in real-world tests?
