The first disappointing COBY product...
I've always liked Coby products, but this one deserves no stars at all. This cd player is very inexpensive, and it only runs on batteries. It does not have an anti-skip feature, and it is extremely light sensitive. In order to have continuous play, it must be shielded from any environmental electrical current, sunlight, lamp, light fixture, flash, beam and ambient...

I've always liked Coby products, but this one deserves no stars at all. This cd player is very inexpensive, and it only runs on batteries. It does not have an anti-skip feature, and it is extremely light sensitive. In order to have continuous play, it must be shielded from any environmental electrical current, sunlight, lamp, light fixture, flash, beam and ambient lighting. I recently bought three of the players (at that price, I figured I'd have a backup once I dropped it a few times), and I've completely "used up" two players. Each one completely died from less than 2 weeks of use. It seems the abuse of using the player in a lit environment ruins the electronic mechanism!

The product cannot be operated by AC converter; it operates by battery only. AMZN should specify this. Had I known, I'd have purchased something which had the specified capacity.

I purchased this particular CD player for my son's 3rd birthday. Being that he is still pretty young, I decided to go with one of the least expensive players, knowing that kids his age are prone to either losing or breaking items soon after they are played with for the first time. When we put a CD in the player we realized that it didn't work, rather it would say Error. We figured that it was the CD itself that wasn't playable, so we tried another...and another...and another. All of the CD's we tried would read Error on the player leading us to believe that the CD player itself is the problem. I have requested a refund and will not be purchasing another CD player of this kind. I definitely wouldn't reccommend this product.

Did not like. Very poor quality. Opened it to place a cd and it would not close, the button stuck. Did not bother to return, holding it closed with a rubberband and went to Bestbuy and bought a better cd player.
