Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Nice big screen, perfect size for the dining room. Handy DVD player and a very handy USB reader
Bad points:: Contrast is not brilliant over vertical viewing angles, if you're looking up at the TV at a dark image, some of the quality is lost. More suited to a low viewing platform.

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Bought this tv for the kitchen and overall have been pleased with it's performance. DVD player and music player has been a great bonus. Sound on this particular tv is of a reasonable quality, i found that a lot of the 19" tv/dvd combo's have not been great on the sound.
Bad points:: Take's a minute for the digital receiver to start up, and the reception has broken down a few times and takes a while to burst back into life. This might not be a major problem for the majority, but in our area we are now digital only.

Like a scart interface but capable of carrying HD signals from or to other devices. You’ll need these to link your Playstation 3 or your Blu-ray player to your HD-ready TV.
