Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Product Description
Take your favorite tunes on the road or to the park with this portable CD boombox. Sporting a unique, rounded chassis with red highlights that's way more fashionable than standard boxy models, the CX-CD241 is an ideal choice for music fans who want a little extra style with their sounds. Fortunately for listeners, the cool shape doesn't detract from the music, as the CD player still includes all the basics and a few extras. Among the features are standard skip, search, and repeat one and all functions, along with programmable track memory for listeners who want to create a custom soundtrack. When the CDs are played out, listeners can turn to the AM/FM tuner for a less-structured playlist.

The CX-CD241 owes its audio performance to its 1-bit digital-to-analog converter, which ensures a clean CD sound, and its pair of wide-ranging side speakers. Rounding out the feature set is a digital two-digit LED display, a telescoping FM antenna, and a flip-up carrying handle. The unit runs on either AC power or six C-size batteries (not included) and measures a compact 8.25 by 5.5 by 8.5 inches (W x H x D). And as with all Coby audio products, the CX-CD241 is backed by a 90-day warranty.

1 out of 5 stars Terrible sound on the radio!   June 13, 2008
Jennifer Halpert (orlando, FL, USA)
Very disappointing sound quality. It is difficult to tune the radio, and many stations barely come in. But, at least it looks good- oh wait thats not the most important quality in a radio! Its cute and compact and cd's plat clearly.


2 out of 5 stars Not loud enough for use in a crowd.   February 6, 2008

This product works well for personal use. I have tried to use it with a crowd of preschoolers and it is just not loud enough to overcome the noise they make. Other players I have used work better.


4 out of 5 stars Withstands toddler abuse   September 13, 2007

4 out of 5 found this review helpful

We have this CD player in our kitchen so that my toddler and I can enjoy his favorite tunes while I'm making dinner or whatnot. He climbs onto the counter and gives this stereo such abuse, and touches all the parts you're never supposed to touch on a CD player, and yet it still works perfectly! I'm really impressed by this machine. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that is does make a quiet electronic "hum" when it's plugged in. It doesn't interfere with the quality of the music at all. But if you're in the room and all else is quiet, you'll notice it. For this reason, we keep it unplugged when we're not playing a CD. Otherwise this CD player is great!


1 out of 5 stars Very frustrating!!   August 10, 2007

I bought this product so my 3 year old son could listen to music before going to sleep in his room. It is terrible. There is a constant hum as long as it is plugged in. The volume of the hum depends on how the power cord is angled at the back of the unit. The CD player never worked right. After a few songs there is a "ER" message on the screen. Most of the time I can't even get it to play a CD. I'm very disappointed. Don't buy this product.

Sadly we received the product broken. It wouldn't play beyond the half way mark of any cd. In requesting a replacement the company returned the money without any comunication. It was rather strange but they refunded the money so one cant't complain.
