1.0 out of 5 stars BAD device, July 7, 2009

This review is from: Coby DVD-211 Compact DVD Player with Progressive Scan (Electronics)

I had this DVD player for about a month before it stoped working. It was playing one day. The next day it says invalid disc after it spins the disc for almost 10 minutes. I have tried every disc in my DVD collection and I even tried cleaning it with one of those lens cleaners. It still does NOT work. This DVD PLAYER SUCKS!!!!! I don't even want to put the warrenty into effect it stopped working after a month why would I want another one. This is the first and last coby product I will ever buy in my life.

1.0 out of 5 stars COBY DVD-211: works if you do not use it..., May 5, 2009

I used it for only few hours. The unit is very noisy and it takes a while to start playing and it gets very worm. Now it does not play at all I tried different CD, DVD still no play I only get "Invalid Disc" after waiting for a while as usual.

Also noticed sparks when plugging the unit in and also the disc keeps turning even when the unit turned off, but still plugged in!!!

It's been only a month I bought this unit and it only worked few hours. I noticed looking at other reviews for COBY product DVD-233 it's with same story for those units.

I never buy COBY products again, I think someone should investigate the company for "product quality check" management and convince them to get in some other business, simply I don't think microelectronics is for them.

My advice is don't be fooled by the looks and their so called cheap price (It does not worth for that price if you want to use it as "statue" or a place holder on your shelf); for this invest only in name brands even they cost more; but think, how much you will save on headache pills later on.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worked once, smells like it's burning up., September 15, 2008

DVD player worked the first time I used it. After that it no longer reads any discs. It is also extremely hot and smells like it's burning up inside. It'll be in the e-waste pile on the next trip. Don't waste a little money on a Coby, spend more money wisely on something else.
