less then i expected.......2007-09-23
i needed a replacement tv for my kitchen table and thought getting it with a radio would be great.however, the reception is horrible. I'm only getting three stations on the tv and none on the radio.I got much better reception with my old 9"zenith. perhaps the coby either needs a stronger antenna or i need to use it someplace else.
Won't do that again!!.......2007-09-15
Let's first understand that we're talking about a $14.50 TV. By itself this is not the most complex item in the world nor does it cost that much. The reason I called this review "Won't do that again" is because of the money involved. Follow the bouncing ball -- I bought two little TV's at a cost of [do the math] $29.00. My total bill was $69.00, you see there was a $40.00 add on for shipping and handling. Next time it's off to Circuit City, there the TV's are $20.00 and all you do is walk out the door.
You asked!
you get what you pay for.......2007-05-12
I very cheap TV. After using it in the kitchen for about a week, it has now been taken out of service and has become another storage item. I would not recommend purchasing one.
Coby CX - TV1 5" B/W.......2007-04-25
The product was delivered on time. It's great to watch TV next to my computer. Channel 2 comes in fuzzy but that is alright. It is also good to have around when the power goes out.
it had a problem.......2007-04-16
I bought this item refurbished for 12 bucks. I hooked it up fo a coby travel-sized dvd player. I bought this for my home gym & I'm happy that it has no issues playing my cds or dvds... however there was a rather large issue recieving on-air television signals. the picture was clearer then I expected but, even at full power, the sound could not be raised beyond a (barely audible) whisper. this set would be worthless had I planned on using it to recieve tv.
I forgot to test the radio.
I'm happy with my purchase, but I would NOT recomend it.
update:
the radio works very well. the speakers aren't so great but I used the headphone jack to plug in a set of computer speakers. the stations come in nicely but some stations are impossible to find, probably due to the unit's small size.
Average customer rating:
- Wow!
- Love It and highly reccommend it to others

Product Description
The TVWB534SP is a 5-inch black & white TV with Instant Weatherband and AM FM Radio.PRODUCT FEATURES:Vertical hold, contrast and brightness controls;Removable flashlight with recharge circuit;Emergency siren;Thermometer & compass;3-way power: 110V-AC (included), 12V-DC (fused cigarette lighter adaptor included) and batteries;2-adjustable rotary fluorescent lamp;Built-in charger for NiCad rechargeable batteries for unit and flashlight (batteries not included);Stereo headphone jack;Audio/video input jacks;External antenna jack.
Amazon.com Product Description
The electronic equivalent of a Swiss army knife or Leatherman multipurpose tool, the GPX TVWB534SP packs as many goodies as it can into its stylish, durable housing. The device centers around a 5-inch black-and-white TV--with vertical hold, contrast, and brightness controls--that's great for catching ballgames at a tailgater or keeping kids entertained in the back seat. That's certainly not all, however. The unit also comes with an analog AM/FM radio for listening to music or news reports, an instant weather band receiver that picks up weather alerts and storm warnings, a flashlight and a lantern for lighting up a dreary campsite, and a thermometer that keeps you informed of the outdoor temperature. And is if that's not enough, it even includes an emergency siren and a compass--a couple of handy items should you get lost in the mountains or the countryside. Users who want to pare down their supplies while going on sundown hikes can remove the flashlight from the plastic housing, which makes the light source far more portable. The housing charges the flashlight independently, though the light does require two rechargeable ni-cad batteries (not included). As a lantern, meanwhile, the unit offers a two-way adjustable fluorescent beam that's ideal for reading, eating, or as a general background light.
The device is appropriate for a variety of casual and serious uses, from serving as a tailgater accessory, an all-in-one emergency tool for home power failures and natural disasters, a camping gear space-saver (several camping necessities in a single package), and a survival kit for vehicle breakdowns in the desert or a mountain pass. Users have the choice of plugging the TVWB534SP into an AC wall outlet or a DC cigarette lighter adapter, or conversely they can add nine C-size batteries (not included) for portable use. Adding to the unit's convenience is a molded carrying handle and an adjustable/removable shoulder strap for longer totes. The device also includes an audio/video input (for plugging in, say, a portable DVD player), an external antenna jack, and a stereo headphone input.
What's in the Box
TVWB534SP TV/radio/flashlight, AC adapter, DC cigarette lighter adapter, removable shoulder strap, user's manual.

Wow!.......2007-05-31
I bought his for the hotel where I work. They loved it. It took less than a week to receive. We plan to put it with our emergency kit, we're preparing for hurricane season.
Love It and highly reccommend it to others.......2007-02-04
We recently had a power outage here in Syracuse, Ny. I was looking forward to watching my favorite show as the power went out. Emergency T.V. is the best!! Although it takes 9 batteries, it sure came in handy. My husband also hooked it up to our cable t.v line and it worked.

Customer Reviews:
Axion B&W TV.......2007-11-02
I was moderately pleased with this purchase. Pleased because I was able to find a product online that I haven't been able to locate in stores - a plain old very small tv that I can plug in and use in my bathroom. Not as pleased because there is a loud buzz in the speaker that drives me crazy. I haven't contacted the company-that's MY fault-but it's because I don't like the hassle of returning things I've ordered online. That's why I normally would make this purchase in a store-had I been able to find it in a store. So, my review is mixed. Glad I could find one; quality not great.
It stinks.......2007-10-30
My last Axion worked well daily for 5 years. This one for one week. When I turn it on it takes about an hour to warm up and display a picture. It stinks! I was forced to give it one star in order to submit the review, but it doesn't deserve it!
Worst TV Ever.......2007-07-30
This is the worst excuse for a tv I have ever seen. We are served by 9 stations and it will only just barely pick up the strongest which has a million watts and is only 30 miles away. You can barely see the picture and the sound is worse. The radio will only pick up a few strong local stations, but it really doesn't matter much because the sound is too bad to listen to any of them. I thought maybe it would be a decent door stop but due to not much inside it is too light for that. Then I thought maybe a paperweight. No, takes up too much desk space. Now I have finally come up with a use for it. Target practice. A direct hit from a 357 magnum would not render it any more usless than it already is.
DISSATISFACTION.......2007-07-01
I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PRODUCT. I HAD PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED A COBY
5 INCH TV AND WAS NOT PLEASED WITH THAT ONE, SO I LOOKED ONLINE FOR A
DIFFERENT BRAND AND SETTLED ON THE AXION AND WAS VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS ALSO. THE PICTURE WAS VERY ERRATIC AND WOULD NOT STAY WITH A
GOOD PICTURE OR SOUND. I TRIED TO ADJUST AND COULD NOT GET ANYTHING.
I WOULD HOPE THAT OTHERS WOULD NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS.
THANK YOU,
RONALD DESNOYER

Disappointed.......2006-02-02
I was quite unhappy with this TV and as a result returned it. The audio was poor, the picture was poor and the controls were hard to operate. Amazon.com generally provides good products; however, in this case they slipped badly.
TVreviewer.......2005-04-01
Any TVs from AXION or American Action should be avoided. I hear nothing but trouble about them, and I have recently purchased an TFT LCD 3.2" color TV by AXION, and it's a big disappointment. This type of TV is fine, if it's not from American Action or AXION. I have a Sylvania that looks exactly like this one, and it works great! Just don't buy an AXION or American Action model, and it will be ok.
Would Be Rated Zero Stars If That Was An Option.......2005-01-15
Ordered one, despite the reviews, and it arrived DOA.
Amazon very quickly sent out a replacement, with expedited shipping (way to go Amazon), but that too was DOA.
Don't bother with this unit, which by the way is not an Axion, it is ACTION. Even the cardboard box it is packaged in is cheap and recycled. Too bad.
I am going to order a different brand, one that is rated highly!!!
Cheap Cheap Cheap.......2004-05-29
I did not order this from Amazon, but it was a "We're Sorry" gift from a company who screwed up during customer service who shall remain nameless for now. The first TV they sent was already not working when I opened it-picture tube broken. Then this company sent me a second, which works, but we'll see how long it lasts. It is really hard to find a channel here in Northeast Ohio on this little TV. The tuning is not so wonderful. But for a fun little cheap thing you won't mind losing or breaking on a road trip or at the beach, it will do.
Don't waste your money.......2004-04-02
I bought this TV in December and 60 days later, the picture tube went out. Of course, the warranty had expired by then and it was 30 days past the day when I could return it back to Amazon.com. I can't believe Amazon allows garbage like this to be sold!
