3 out of 5 stars works best with CATV   January 28, 2006
 28 out of 29 found this review helpful

As a portable color TV this product would rate a 2. No battery power. Only AC/DC, including the auto adapter. It picks up 4 or 5 UHF channels but not any VHF in my large city, though with large amounts of static. On the auto adapter outside it picks up 2 channels in my city, so the built in antenna is a weakling. The AM-FM radio works well. Sound is adequate for my workshop. However, I'll give it a three because as a stationary TV in my workshop, hooked directly to cable tv, it picks up 20 something cable channels (out of at least 75), with a good picture. Oddly enough the digital tuner picks up at least 5 channels that are not available in my cable package on my other TVs, and the channels are established in a different order from the full cable package on the regular TVs! Go figure. This must be why the product is not advertised anywhere online as cable ready, though the user manual indicates that it is fully cable ready -- probably in China. So don't buy this as a portable TV; maybe for the kitchen or workshop.


5 out of 5 stars Inexpensive little TV for the kitchen...   April 30, 2006
 12 out of 12 found this review helpful

When looking for a small color television for our kitchen, I realized that LCD-screen models were too expensive for my budget.

This Coby 5" color TV takes up very little room on the kitchen counter. It offers all of the functions that we were looking for, including radio. The picture quality is good. We have had no problems at all with it. We bought this TV to replace an old black & white 5-inch model that took up much more space.

Obviously, other products are available with more features, but we found this TV to be a very good value for the price that we paid. After all, it's not our main television, and this simple little TV does a nice job in the kitchen.

Coby CTV555 5" COLOR TV is unquestionably the cheapest, worst designed, poorly manufactured, unsatisfiying product that I have ever purchased anywhere. I read the instructions plugged it in and it did not work. This was a complete waste of time. Amazon ought to drop this product.

This set lost color and picture quality over the few months that I owned it and then it just stopped working. I'm going to buy something else and so should you.
