Comments about Coby COBY CX CD282 Boombox:

This unit looks like a vacuum cleaner, is heavy like a vacuum cleaner and sucks like a vacuum cleaner. I was disappointed 2 seconds after I turned it on. The sound quality is horrible for a unit that looks powerful and boasts about it's powered woofer. The sound is unchanged when the bass booster is in use and some selector controls are so flimsy I'm sure they won't last long. I wonder by the weight of it if a brick isn't inside of it. I returned this unit to my dealer as soon as they opened the next day.

Comments about Coby COBY CX CD282 Boombox:

This thing is a beast! It has that newer CD technology crammed into this portable little box. I am so impressed! Coby is THE name in quality and technology. You can't go wrong. If you load it with Enercell batteries from the Shizack, it will jam out at dangerous db levels. Be careful! Thanks Radio Shack.

Comments about Coby COBY CX CD282 Boombox:

The power this thing can produce is amazing!! I really think that i have become more inspired to get more out of my 200-in-one kit [...] I can just sit there and work on the kit, watch my Wow Wee Roboquad and listen to great tunes!!
