Coby's DVD-224 is about the size of a hardcover book, so whether you're ferrying the player between the kitchen and the bedroom or hooking it up for periodic use by the kids, the DVD-224's small size permits enjoyment of DVD programs and music CDs in just about any room you want. While not portable in the traditional sense--the unit has no screen and requires AC power--the DVD-224 is much easier to move around, set-up, and use than a traditional component DVD player. Less

THE COBY DVD-224 - the dirt cheap region free player rocks the house!

bydesslok May 23, 2008
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros A surprisingly robust system for such a cheap price.
Cons The remote is too damn small for my massive paws.
Recommended it? Yes

It was not too long ago that my mom sent me a whole bunch of home movies that she wanted me to dub and edit and clean up on my computer. Since I had a video capture card already plugged into my rig, I thought the easiest thing to do would be to get a DVD player and run some RCA cables to the back... Read full review »

Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this DVD player for my daughter to use. We have owned it for quite sometime and have had no issues with it.

Price
This DVD player costs next to nothing. For that reason, I have no concerns with allowing my daughter to operate it. When we originally purchased it, money was... Read full review »

Pros Multi-format, ethernet connection for software updates
Cons Some movies take a while to load
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this player in June and have had great luck with it. I've given it a lot of use since I was out of work for 3 months after knee surgery. Not only do the Blu-ray and HD-DVD movies look great, but so do all my regular DVDs. It upconverts all standard DVDs. The only downside is that my... Read full review »

I have been 'born to the purple' and am FORMAT FREE!

Pros Compatible with playback of Blu-Ray, HD-DVD, and DVD. Improved detail, clarity, color &...
Cons Speaker test needs a fix, as does 100Hz crossover for analog multi-channel audio output.
Recommended it? Yes

One day in and I can't find a much of a downside to this player.

Hooked up via component (sorry no HDMI on either my TV or AV Receiver) to a 1080i 65" Mitsubishi WS-65907 (viewed from 12 feet) via an Onkyo TX-DS989.

No problems with playing back any media so far.
