I am a mature student studying English at the University of Salford. My hubby and I have three gorgeous kids, two boys who are 9 and 7 and a daughter aged 5. Enjoying life to the full is most important to us, and we try to fulfil this at all times.

We were looking for one of these for a long time, and eventually found this on the internet. I checked out a few prices and reviews, after all, we had never heard of "Mustek", but this machine seemed to be highly thought of and well priced. We got it for £179.99, but I forget where from.
The dvd player plays everything perfectly. Picture quality is great, and sound is just enough for its size. It comes with an adaptor to plug into the cigarette lighter, and a mains one too. The battery charges quickly, and lasts about 3 hours, plenty of time for a film to play.
The best thing however is the fact that it is a widescreen dvd player. The screen is 7 inches wide, and if you think that most dvd's are produced in this format, it makes perfect sense. Some of the cheaper portable players are in 4:3 format.
This was a godsend on holiday this year, as the kids could watch a film on the journey, and whilst waiting at the port to embarck. We used it in our cottage in France, which was fine as it rained a couple of days. It has a scart connector, and will connect to any TV to play as a normal DVD player. In fact, we used it as much as the kids!!
A welcome addition to our travelling needs, which comes on all long journeys we make.

YOu can have as many headsets as you want - well admittedly quality will decrease - you just have to use mini earphone jack doublers, or triplers.
I've seen a tripling one that makes one output go to three headphones, but only in the US.

Hi there, The unit does come with one set of earphones, but there is only one socket. So only one set can be used at a time. We thought this would be a disadvantage, but haven't really found a problem. The only ones which had multiple phone sockets were the very expensive ones, of course! Thanks for reading my review, Yvonne.
