Good points:: Great picture quality, looks good. Thought I may have been taking a gamble on a unknown make but am more than happy.

Michael, Dublin Used in Child's bedroom

Score 7.0/10

Good points:: Easy to set up and looks good. Compatable with universal wall bracket.
Bad points:: The remote control is very complex and difficult to use. My child can use most remote controls but this one he finds hard to master, which is a bad point because the television is in his room. The sound quality isn't the greatest but is satisfactory.
