Will not deliver the basics May 29, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Poor construction - You get what you pay for however, you do not receive the basics with this product. Main Problem - When you press down on a function buttom on the front of the unit, the force is applied to the CD and it begins to scratch.
Amazon was great with the return process
Thanks to AMAZON! No thanks to COBY. March 15, 2007 This player has garnered decent reviews, so I thought I'd try it. The first unit sent to me was unusable because of skipping. I had purchased the extended warranty -- but Amazon's extended warranty defers to COBY's warranty for the first year, so you have to deal with COBY directly. I found that one could hardly ever get through to Coby, and when I did, they had to consult and call me back, so I ended up having to try to get through three different times, only to be told I'd have to PAY TO SHIP THE BAD UNIT BACK TO THEM -- which would cost almost as much as the unit. THANK GOODNESS FOR AMAZON. When I called to express my discontent, the Amazon customer relations staffer quicly and easily sent me another unit. THANK YOU. Because the second one works without skipping. It sounds okay, it does the basics. There is no "resume play" function, however, which is annoying.
COBY lacks integrity February 18, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The cd payer is made of what feels like a cheap plastic. The cassette adapter was broken after 10 seconds of use. So I called Coby. They said I'd have to PAY THEM to send me a replacement! My advice, don't bother buying COBY.
quit working after 4 CDs over 2 weeks February 10, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I used mine for less than the time it took to deplete one pair of AA Sony 2500 mAh batteries and to listen to 4 CDs of a recorded book. It quit working with just an "Err" message showing, so I cleaned the CD, but it would not start loading that or any other CD. The disc spins, the laser moves on its track, but it doesn't even start playing. Sometimes it does eventually read "Err," but more often it just sits with "---" showing on the display. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Coldy slim CD player skips badly if you do not hold it still. Would not recommend.
