PORTABLE & CONVENIENT - GOOD PICTURE QUALITY,
by Denise, 2010-07-07
We purchased this product for our RV and are very happy with it. Since we sometimes camp at sites where there are no hookups, the DVD player comes in handy. The picture quality is good. It's also easily portable - we can store it in a cabinet in the RV. I'm sure it would be good for a child's room too.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT,
by R. Corey, 2010-06-24
This set was a problem from the get go, When I saw it only had a 90 day warrantee I should have returned it immediately.
Coby is not compatible with Cablevision's set up and I had to use 2 remotes at all times.
Shipped on July 1, 2009 and the set died this month.
I am amazed Amazon would sell a product like this.
An honest review after about a year,
by Douglas J. Wilsey, 2010-06-17
I purchased this TV/DVD combo about a year ago. My usage for this unit was to be on my back porch during the summer. It wouldn't be fair to rate the internal tuner as I use a separate satellite tuner. The TV portion of this unit has not failed me yet. The picture quality is real nice, crisp and provides clear definition.
Now, the not so good review; the DVD player in this unit (at least mine) is awful. There are constant artifacts going on, total picture breakup and basically an unwatchable experience using either purchased, rental or my own burned DVD's. A very disappointing DVD experience but I'm not surprised based on other reviews and the fact that this can't be a decent player. By this I mean, a decent DVD player would have adequate error correction to compensate for misreads. I honestly believe the DVD portion became a mere after thought. To those who have experienced no such issues with the DVD, I tip my hat to you and find some comfort in the fact that Coby (or it's third parties) actually manufactured some working units.
I will admit that I should have returned this unit for my money back, then purchased something else. Instead, I got lazy and became satisfied with just the TV side. If I end up losing the TV portion, I will invest in a small LCD (NOT COBY) instead.
No, I would not recommend this to anyone else even though I gave this unit above average marks. The overall product is not reliable and has failed components. It's low cost presents an attractive purchase but I doubt the the manufacturer has offered an olive branch to those customers; who like myself have expressed disappointment.

Shoddy Product,
by E. Zito, 2010-03-05
I bought this TV/DVD combo in June 2009. Last night I was watching TV when the screen suddenly went black. I checked the outlet, etc. & tried to turn it on again using the remote & then the power button on the TV. Nothing worked. I called Coby tech support & they told me that because the warranty had expired, I could either call in a TV repairman or BUY A NEW TV!!! But I had this TV for ONLY 9 months!!!Needless to say I was not happy with this answer. Bad business practice & shoddy material. I WILL buy another TV, but it will not be manufactured by Coby. I e-mailed Coby about my dissatisfaction & I am filing a complaint with The Better Business Bureau.
DVD failed after one use,
by James F. Leach, 2009-11-22
I received this tv I quickly verified that it work. Played on DVD, changed channels. Exercised the features. All seemed OK. Since this is a backup unit, I did not use it until weeks later. When I tried to play the second DVD it failed within a few minutes. Has not played a DVD since. So do yourself a favor and buy a different product. This one is unreliable.
