This is the best DVD player in the world! by Afenii on cnet.com Sep 8, 2011
Since my Coby-233 DVD burnt out it has been so frustrating trying to watch a movie or an exercise DVD with the other 2 DVD players I own. I love my Coby-233 DVD player and would never but another.
 
Great basic NTSC/PAL player by Jennifer on bhphotovideo.com Feb 14, 2011
What you see is what you get with the DVD233 Compact DVD Player by Coby. We needed a simple, straightforward PAL player to test playback of PAL DVDs we burned at the office and this player does exactly that.

Piece of pooo by sunnyd667 on overstock.com Jan 15, 2009
I bought this thinking it was a good value on October 3rd. It is the 15th of January and its broken. I called Coby directly and since I am a few days past the warranty there is nothing that they can do for you. Don't waste your money on this item as you ...
 
junk is an understatement by sunnyd667 on cnet.com Jan 15, 2009
The company does not stand behind thier products and this is the 4th one I have had from them and am giving up. I think that they purposely make them to break a week after the warrany expires so you have to keep buying them. The customer service sucks ...

Run Far from this Product by AndrewM on yahoo.com Sep 24, 2007
The unit is cheap, in all aspects. It had fair picture and sound quality, but I didn't expect to much from a $36 DVD player anyway. I did, however expect it to last longer than 2 months! Coby wants a $12 for shipping to repair the unit, under ... ...
