Summary: absolute worst product I have purchased in years 2008-08-12
Comment: The first set arrived broken in at least 4 places. I exchanged them and received yet another broken pair. I cannot comment on the sound quality because I never even had a chance to use them. Poor quality I can't believe this product is even on the market.

Summary: Davis Foulger 2008-02-24
Comment: They may not have the world's best sound quality (I'm not an audiophile, but they always sounded fine to me), but these COBY headphones are a great bargain. I used my pair for over six months without mishap with many foldings, unfoldings, packings (into backpacks, pockets, etc) and unpackings). They've been great for the price and have proved to be highly portable. Sadly, I lost them recently and am about to buy another pair.
My only recommendation: get some thin strip stick on foam (preferably black) to put on the inside of the headpiece. It will make them more comfortable to wear over long periods of time.

Summary: Noise cancelling? Not quite. 2008-01-29
Comment: Granted these headphones are inexpensive, and not as uncomfortable as the price might lead you to expect. But noise-cancelling? Nope.
The major difference that I could tell between the ON and OFF positions in the ANR switch is that in the ON position, it does a much better job of... picking up the funny electrical noises my iPhone produces when it is about to receive a call, or accessing the internet. I was not able to detect any noise reduction at all.
Pros:
1) cheap
2) folding
3) has airline adapter & carrying bag
Cons:
1) not great sound
2) the active noise cancellation doesn't work
3) poor shielding of the ANR causes it to pick up electrical noise
If you are looking for cheap, and relatively comfortable, go for it. But don't expect truly great sound or any ANR at all. Without the battery, it's a bit lighter, and actually works better.

Summary: Gamble 2007-08-07
Comment: If they don't break on you, they are a spectacular buy. Don't believe anyone who says the sound quality is terrible. The sound is phenomenal for the price. Note: The bass is much better with the amp on. Even though they felt cheap, I was very happy with them until the unusually-thick, stiff, tin? wire that came with it shorted on the inside. Yes, all the materials are dirt-cheap, but hey, cheap means lightweight, and lightweight = good. Instead of buying a new durable cable which is what I should have done, I returned the product. Now I want to reorder them. I can definitely see them snapping easily if you have a wide head.

Summary: Coby CV191 Noise canceling headphones 2007-03-30
Comment: One word describes this product; "JUNK"!
I bought three pair of these phones in the Montego Bay airport duty free electronics store on Dec 31/06. One pair broke as soon as I put them on my head in the departure lounge. I hadn't even plugged them into my ipod yet and the left ear cup snapped off.
I got them replaced right away before my flight left. That pair snapped the right ear cup off about two weeks later. My one son's pair broke on the flight home - the right ear cup snapped off after just two hours of listening. (My other son got his pair stolen at the airport which is not Coby's fault, but they are probably broken by now too)
All three pair of CV191 are broken and in the trash. STAY AWAY from this headphone. The sound quality is actually very good ... but the integrity of the phones is junk. They are very very cheaply made.
Thankfully Coby replaced two of the three phones at no charge with the CV-192. These seem to be built much better and sound just as good.
