Eating-up cheap dvd players


My kids have "eaten-up" 2 dvd players in the last couple of years (1 pioneer, 1 apex). They just use them a ton and little hands aren't always kind.
I need suggestions on what is the most durable/reliable. I don't need many features but don't want to keep buying "crap".

i think you are on the right track using the cheapo units..

around here, the kids always win....

I have used the $29 ones you find at local Best Buys or drug store specials...can't beat a $29 casualty
Instead of buying a $29 every year, buy 3 $29 units at once so they are always readily available.
