Don't buy this one
I bought this DVD player (had to use a gift certificate) in May 2006 and used it for one week-end in June. I took it out in November to use it and there was no display. Of course, the warranty has expired.
Good only for the short run
I received this as a gift, so have no idea where it's from.When it worked, for about the first nine months, it did a good job. Unfortunately either the battery or charger failed about then. Coby support VERY slowly said:
Return the unit to the retailer for an exchange..
If the retailer will not exchange the unit, then the product can be replaced by Coby Electronics.
Our units have a 90-day warranty. Any product that is out of the 90-day warranty is subject to an out of warranty cost to have the product replaced. Any product being returned without a receipt is subject to an out of warranty cost. The cost would be ( see # 3) .
To obtain warranty services:
1) Return the product to the below address:
Coby Electronics Corp.
Attn: Customer Service
56-65 Rust Street Maspeth, NY 11378 USA
2) Include a copy of the receipt
3) Provide a $65.00 Money Order for the return shipping of the replacement unit
4) Provide a detailed note stating what is wrong with the unit.
So, for half again its price, I would get a unit less than a year old replaced. Definitely not worth it. I'll buy another, but a different brand for sure.
Very Dispointed! Wish I had returned rather than changed
I bought this DVD on Aug. 14. When it arrived, I found that I cannot plug the power line into the AC Adapter. I called Amazon. The reps were very nice. But I made a mistake! I should have RETURNED it rather than replaced it!
The replacement came promptly. I took it on a trip for the first time use. Within a week, the power switch falled off. I was going to call Amazon again. But feel not worth it and thought I would just use the remote.
All in a sudden, on Nov. 11, whatever DVD I put in, it keeps saying wrong disc!!! All these are legal DVDs!!!
Now, I no longer can return this to Amazon! I don't know what I am going to do with it!
DON BUT THIS DVD PLAYER!!!
Coby TF-DVD7100 Portable DVD Player
the Coby is everything you said it would be. Very pleased with the ease of operation and the quick charging time of four hours. Some others are 6 or 8 hours.
the Coby seems able to play any DVD no matter how badly they are scratched. Work even when our DVD player with TV does not recognize the disk.
Great product!
I am very happy with this product! It really got here fast and in great condition!
