 Lasted Less Than 5 Months March 7, 2008

Great little TV for the kitchen. I thought it would last longer than 5 months. Picture tube has recently gone out, after I talked to Tech. Support they said for me to send it back with a $31.00 money order to fix it and return it back to me. With the shipping to Coby and the $31.00 money order it's not cost effective since I only paid about $62.00 for the TV. Besides, all I've been reading on the reviews is that everyone is having the same problems. Also it is no longer available.

Did not work correctly hoping to get credit soon the tech support couldn't help and said to send it back. The menu would not hold and local channels would not come in.
great idea, bad customer service September 22, 2007

Ok love the TV. But it broke...10 days before the warranty was up. So I followed all the return instructions and sent my $4 or 6 bucks for return shipping and that was 4 months ago...I have YET to receive my replacement, a return phone call or a return email. This is the WORST customer service on the planet and apparently they aren't very interesting in making a good product. Like another review, I think the picture tube blew on mine. When it worked, it was fabulous, and one of the only small color TVs I could find with these features. I wish another brand would do this...and back the product!!

This TV is not portable at all. It needs to be plugged into an outside cable or an additional antenna to work. The antenna that is attached to the TV only works for the radio. I wanted a small TV to take to work to watch football on Sunday. I either have to carry this TV with an additional plug-in antenna---how portable is that---or carry my little B&W set. I would not buy this product.

I received a Coby CTV-555 as a present a year ago. The first one was DOA. So, I got a replacement. It worked, but I needed cable as I could only get one station. So, I didn't use it for several months. We got cable, and this useless machine worked all of 5 times - just long enough to get over the 90 day warranty. No picture - looks as if the picture tube has blown. This is a buyer beware . Don't buy it at any cost. Coby should be ashamed to put out a product like this to scam the customer. No wonder they only give a 90 day warranty. They know if won't last any longer. Minus 1 star is the rating I would give this.
