Summary: Love cheap dvd players
Comment: Every single time I buy a dvd player from $100.00 to $184.00 they last one year. Granted we watch a lot of dvds, we don't watch t.v. However, that still bites, if I buy the "best" I expect it will work for years, not a year. I bought a cheapo Coby for my family room a year and a half ago, still works, no glitches. So i purchased another one for the basement and my workout room. I'm quite pleased with it, the remote has big buttons, but the remote itself is small.
I feature I like but isn't necessary in my workout room is to fast foward within scenes. I watch a lot of long winded BBC epics and the chapters are really long, and so sometimes if you stop and start you don't want to start at the beginning of the chapter again. I can do that on the3 Coby, but interestingly I can't on my Samsung, Sony of Magnavox.
Sometimes Cheap is better, Coby is the case. I've never had a disk fail to play on it, even home videos people give me.

Summary: Affordable. Minimalist. Compact.
Comment: I bought this for my apartment. Its compact (around the same size as a new hardcover book) and works great. I only wish it had an small screen on the front panel, but I wasn't willing to shell out any extra cash just for a screen. This is simple, functional and you can't beat the price.

Summary: Stopped working two months after purchase
Comment: I bought the Colby DVD player only in October 2008 and it stopped working two months after I bought it. Yes, its super cheap, but it should have certainly lasted longer. And, since the player died two months after the purchase, I couldn't get a refund from Amazon, as they have a 30-day return policy. Almost all stores have a similar policy but if an electronic item stops working within six months, stores like Target, Fred Myers replaces it. I think Amazon needs to rethink its policies.

Summary: You get what you pay for
Comment: Its true what they say you do get what you pay for. When i first got this player, 8months ago, the remote didn't work, but since i had a universal remote control i didn't let that bother me. 7(1/2) months later after mild usage, it stopped working. When i tried the playback while watching a dvd just a couple weeks ago it just went blank on me. I guess it stopped reading the dvd but i wouldn't know since it didn't even have an error message. After that it wouldn't even open to let me retrive the dvd inside and i had to yank it out.

Summary: What a waste of money
Comment: We bought this item on September 1st. As of mid-December, it was dead. It won't power up no matter what we try, and since it's past Amazon's return window, and Coby's crummy warranty is only 90 days, we're left with $27 we flushed down the toilet.
It may be cheap, but you get what you pay for! In the past I've always gone with better brand electronics and paid more for companies with a good reputation. Since this was for an extra machine in our bedroom, I went cheap, and now I'm regretting it!
Spend the extra $20-50 and get a Sony or something else.
