used, not to great.......2007-11-27
I got used. Was worn out to much at the power plug so it went off everytime you touched the cord. Get a new one,, The "jungle" people ripped me off when I returned it. Don't buy from them in case there is a problem. They will steal your money
Good Picture Good Price.......2007-11-06
I'm pleased with this purchase.
I'm most impressed by the quality of the picture. People comment on it. The sound at maximum is weaker than what I expected, which might mean that using it in a car would require the headphones (two included).
The instruction book has small print, but the English is correct and the illustrations are sharp.
Operation is quiet. Button response is positive.
NOTES: To turn off a DVD press the stop button TWICE. The button to turn the power on/off is on the LEFT side- don't confuse it with the indicator light on the front that says "power on/chg"
Mintek 10.2" review.......2007-11-03
I purchased Mintek 10.2" portable DVD player in Sept '07. Sofar I have no problems. The DVD player is easy to operate. Sound quality is okay
A nice feature is that it plays DVD + as well as -.
damaged in shipping.......2007-10-29
I ordered this dvd player as a birthday gift for my father-in-law . It was damaged in shipping (scratches on the dvd player). I called amazon and they asked me to call World wide distributors because this product was not sold directly by amazon . I called them up , sent emails and I was told that if I needed a replacement , I had to wait for 6 weeks , so I had no option other than keeping it . It works fine ....but it does not look like a new one with all the scratches on top of the dvd player.
Outstanding DVD player.......2007-10-11
This is my second Mintek 10.2" DVD player. The first one was purchased almost a year ago and is still operating beautifully. It is used by my 7 year old grandson who has autism. He loves to play VHS tapes and DVD's. Unfortunately, he likes to watch the same 30 seconds or less of the video over and over again. He wore out the rewind/fast forward buttons on two VCR's already and is working on a third. He uses/abuses the Mintek for many hours a day, loading and removing the the disks himself and forward spacing and back spacing relentlessly. He carries the unit around the house and into the car for trips to his tutors. The Mintek continues to perform flawlessly through all this activity. I purchased the second unit only because I know that eventually the current one will fail and my grandson would be devastated without his DVD player. I know that the unit has a considerable number of great features that we never use but all we care about is good picture quality, acceptable sound, and extreme ruggedness. The Minket has it all. A great unit at a great price from Amazon.

Nice product.......2007-12-21
We had another mentek with a smaller screen (7.5" I think it was) and it was a great machine... until my son pulled on some wires and broke it. This machine is just as great... never skips, has a clear picture and is light weight (much lighter than the old one we had). The battery life is pretty good too. We can get though a whole movie without having to plug in.

Double Disappointment.......2007-05-13
I have bought 2 Mintek DVD players, and now, shame on me. The first one worked pretty well for a while and got a lot of use. It then started to get touchy. If it is bumped in the slightest, it thinks that the DVD door opens, and the DVD starts over again. This is terrible for travel or kids.
I bought another one, thinking that it was a good machine other than that, but it has acted up from the beginning. It actually won't play some discs (that will play on the first machine). Other discs just freeze and skip and are unwatchable (but, again, they play fine on other machines).
I'm very frustrated with both machines that I bought. I cannot have had the bad luck to have bought two lemons! Just beware when buying this product.
I gave 2 stars only because the sound and picture are good (when they work!!), otherwise I'd have given one star.
Absolutely no support.......2007-01-05
It appears to work fine except possibly the AV output. It has a password in the setup that is not documented anywhere. When I tried to find out about these problems online and by phone - there was no answer (the phone mailbox is full and won't let you even leave a message). I would not recommend this product to anyone.
Sorely disappointed.......2006-10-18
Our Mintek was unreliable right out of the box. The picture and sound were decent, it's size was a great convenience when traveling, but we had trouble getting it to play and eventually it just failed on us after a few weeks. And we hardly used it much. No damage, no dropping, no abuse, nothing but love and respect. It just up and quit on us and I will never buy a Mintek product again. Truly a grand waste of our money. I'm glad others have posted positive reviews - hope they're still happy. I wish you luck if you gamble on this item.
Great for traveling with a family.......2006-07-26
This portable DVD was originally bought for a train trip and it worked great! We were in rooms not coach so the entire family was able to watch and the screen size was plenty large enough to see every thing clearly. What I especially liked was that the screen is still able to be seen from oblique angles. I was afraid that it would be like my laptop and be hard to see unless you are directly infront of it but that isn't the case at all.
The sound works well through the dual head phones and actually works surprisingly well through the speaker as well. We we able to hear the movies on the train through the speaker. Depending on the DVD sometimes it could actually get very loud.
Like the other reviewer I suggest checking out Costco to get this player, so that you can get the pack with a bag and two earphones for less that $200. The bag, I especially liked. It is a very good bag with plenty of storage.
Extremely Versatile Player - NTSC/PAL and Region Free Capable.......2006-07-12
I looked around for a portable DVD unit that would play multiple disk formats. This player fits the bill - according to its specs, it will play DVD+-RW, CD-R/RW, and Kodak Picture CDs. So far, I've only tested it on commercial DVDs and DVD-Rs, all which play fine.
Video quality is fine and audio via headphones is more than adequate. (Audio quality via the small onboard speakers is about on par with laptop speakers.) The player makes some noise spinning up a DVD upon first play and spinning down a DVD after a stop but there is virtually no noise during playback. Video and audio outputs are fairly minimal so it's not the ideal player if you plan on routinely hooking it up to your TV. Additional accessories are available including a component (RGB) video adaptor.
Most invaluable about this player, however, is that it can be made Region Free - i.e. you can change the region code to "0" so that it will play foreign DVDs. Go to videohelp.com to find the simple 5 step process you can follow using the included remote (no firmware update required). It will also play PAL-formatted DVDs as well as the U.S. NTSC standard. I can now play my DVDs from the U.K., as well as Australia.
Because it is so highly versatile, I highly recommend it if you are an avid DVD watcher who views both U.S. and foreign DVDs. (Note, as of the time of this review, Costco is selling the unit for under $200, including a bonus accessory pack which includes a carrying case and 2 headphones).
