Coby TF-DVD5000 Portable DVD Player with 5-Inch LCD
Failed for no reason with only a 90 day warranty
At first I thought very highly of this player because of its compact size and price, but with rare use meaning at most once a week it failed to read discs after only six months.  I was well aware of Coby's Shoddy reputation but decided foolishly to take the gamble that obviously did not pay off. Shortly after the 3 month warranty period (a ridiculously short time for an electronic device) one day for no reason it failed to read any discs.  This comes on top of the fact that when I first purchased it wouldn't even play dual layered discs which I accepted as a price to pay for such a reasonable price point.  Upon retrospect I gave Coby $100 for nothing, and when I could finally get through to their horrible customer service after the fourth time calling. I was told that I had to give them $31.00 to receive the same old piece of crap how ridiculous is that.  My advice is pay more get more and steer clear of companies that don't give a damn about their customers. I highly recommend the Philips company or to a lesser extent Sony.  (and no I do not and have not ever worked for either company)
