How it sucks
click term for excerpts - most relevant excerpts first10 months ago @ AmazonOn powering up if not recently used takes 5 seconds before it responds with the reassuring click that the remote worked. This has caused a fair amount of chaos among new users trying to figure what is not working. Remote not compatible with direct TV...
10 months ago @ AmazonI have to say that I've been pretty disappointed so far. I had to call the Toshiba service department (who referred me to the local repair shop) to get the sound working right out of the box. Roughly a month later I started hearing the sound vibrate when there is a lot of bass.
10 months ago @ AmazonThis was slightly higher than the Amazon price, but, if I got a defective unit, I thought the return process would be easier at a local store.
10 months ago @ AmazonDirect TV remote does not interface with TV very well. It is sluggish and inconsistent. Still trying to fix this.
10 months ago @ AmazonThis occurs regularly now and I'm considering purchasing a speaker system to counter it. I shouldn't have to do that... I regret buying this tv and would love to return it and go with the Sony.
10 months ago @ Amazonnot a choice to set TV to... Whose idea was that? Still trying to figure away around this problem.
How it doesn't
click term for excerpts - most relevant excerpts first12 months ago @ AmazonOther impressive featues of this television include an easy to use on- screen menu with numerous adjustment options for picture and audio and an abundance of component video and HDMI inputs. I highly recommend purchasing a good quality HDTV cable kit to ease the pain of connecting all of the components to the TV (video games, VCR, DVD, digital cable box, etc.). I purchased a nice cable kit at a local wharehouse club for about $70 which had everying I needed to connect this TV.
11 months ago @ AmazonThe picture is great and the value was excellent. I highly recommend this LCD!
10 months ago @ AmazonI chose this unit over the comparable 1080p unit because all reviewers have indicated that there is minimal picture difference in a screen this size. The picture, even with SD input, is excellent. Also, the sound is surprisingly clear and robust;I don't feel any need to add a stereo amplification and speaker system to improve the sound quality.
10 months ago @ AmazonI purchased this tv based off of the many great reviews here at Amazon. I had narrowed my decision down to two tv's, this one and the Sony Bravia (40 in).
10 months ago @ Amazonstand next to a 720p and 1080p in Circuit city and I defy you to see a difference, except in price!!! service from Amazon and Wholesale AV where the set came from was excellent...received set in 2 days!!! at a shipping cost of 42.00!!
12 months ago @ AmazonThe picture is great. It's easy to use. Consumer Reports called it a Best Buy, and my experience, so far, is that they were right once again!!
12 months ago @ AmazonIt arrived quickly, was easy to set up, has lots of easy connections, and we love it.
10 months ago @ AmazonAll in all I am very pleased with the television and would highly recommend it to others.
12 months ago @ AmazonGood picture quality with VCR input. Color and contrast is excellent and viewing angle is also very good.
12 months ago @ AmazonThis is an excellent television especially for the price.
10 months ago @ AmazonTV rocks. Great picture, sound, interfaces, price.
9 months ago @ AmazonThe price was the best we found.
10 months ago @ AmazonAfter considerable research I chose the Toshiba Regza 42 inch HDTV. I was heavily influenced by the Consumer Report "Best Buy" designation and the sale price ($1,100.00) I got at Circuit City.
10 months ago @ Amazondid much research on three technologies before I settled on this set...two "best buy" reviews from consumer reports sealed the deal...got a great price from Amazon at less than $1,000.00 after seeing same set in Circuit City for 1400.00...set up was easy...only complaint, if you want to call it that is that I don't think consumers are aware that not every channel they watch is going to be terrific...how the signal is sent and whether it is accomodated by 720p or 1080p is the issue...also, my research was right, at app.
