I bought this product about three months ago. It has a lot of great features and the image when playing dvds is great. I would like it if it had a bigger screen though. Good for the price but not the best. My main complaint is that the clip that holds the screen on is plastic and mine broke. I was able to fix it with some JB quick weld but it is not detachable anymore. Kind of made cheap. I would also like it more if you could put a picture for the background. Also the USB port won't play my songs from a flash drive.

Awesome radio. Easy to install and it has great features. The screen is a good size and comfortable to watch. I have it in a small sports car so it is perfect. Good radio and stylish.

Don't let the looks of this fool you, it looks a lot better in person. This cd/dvd player pretty much has it all, my favorite is the bluetooth dialing, you just pair up your phone with the unit and your set! This also puts out a lot of power, 22 rms x 4 which really makes my speakers work. The only thing bad i have to say about this unit is that the software isn't the best, but it gets the job done. over all this is a great product with lots of features i would recommend this to anyone.

This product is exactly what I expected for the price. Not excellent but not garbage. I would recommend this to anyone who Doesn't want to spend $800 on a pioneer AVIC-90BT.. anything in between is a waste of money, either go value or go big.
The touch screen works well, and its nice that it has physical buttons if you prefer them. The on screen display looks basic and blocky but it works quite well. My only complaint is that when trying to dial on screen the number pad isnt the same layout as a phone.
The bluetooth works good for voice calls and you can also stream music from your phone to your stereo as well as change songs on your phone from the deck. I had issues getting this to work on my blackberry, it works now, i dont think it's this product's fault.
One thing to keep in mind is that units like this don't support call display or transferring your phone book. You have to spend some real cash to get a unit that has those features.
Sound quality is good, very happy with it. My only complaint there is there's no volume control for your subwoofer, just base adjustment and sub on/off.
Load time for DVDs and CDs is a little long, not too bad though. The DVD player's features are very good.
Input/Output wise, I was a little disappointed to learn that there's really no inputs on the back of the unit, except for rear view camera. All the inputs are on the front for additional A/V sources and USB. Would have been nice to have one of each on the back too.
USB playback worked OK but not great. From my blackberry it worked good, but the interface is a little weak. From my USB harddrive it proved impossible, I think my harddrive requires too much power. The JPEG slideshow feature was cool, images displayed well.
Sonic has been the place i go to nowadays for all my wiring and smaller system needs. They have always given me good service and never had a problem with any product i have bought. keep up the good work guys!
