I installed a jensen touch screen a few years ago for a friend of mine. The only difference I could see was that the screen resolution was not as good as the kenwood or pioneer screens. The touch screen was not as accurate either.
I won't say anything bad about it, it looked to be a decent product for the cost. The biggest determining factor would be how long it lasts. The only problem I have ever encountered regularly with Jensen products is that they had a really small power supply that was prone to overheating and shutting the unit down until it cooled off. They may have changed that in the last few years, I don't know...
anyway, that is my 2 cents.

In my expeirence Jensen=Radioshack junk. The products have decent fetures, sound pretty good, but reliablity is to be desired. The cheap manufacturing reflects the cost and the lack of toughness.
The first thing that set me off on their fold out DVD player was the lack of an external brain. Nobody else does this that I have seen so far, and makes me wonder how many things are skimped on in order to save all that room.........
