Rating: Summary: Very Happy with my decision Review: I spent a long time in stores just staring at the various 32" TVs. I decided that I wanted a flat screen, and it seemed the choice was between Sony and Toshiba. I went with Toshiba because I just liked it a little better, and there are alot of bad things said about the Vegas (good things too). I am delighted with my choice. DVDs look AMAZING! My PS2 looks fantastic on it as well. I highly recommend this set.

Rating: Summary: Best Purchase of 2002 Review: There are so many "bests" associated with this purchase I hardly know where to start. The picture quality is fantastic. The sound quality superb. The flat screeen looks like a million even when its not turned on! I love the remote control. Its very user friendly. I have had a 25 inch Toshiba for 15 years. This was the replacement for it. As the old Toshiba is still works like the day I took it out of the box, it is going to mom and dads to replace a "dead" samsung which is at least 7 years newer! I strongly suggest that you limit your choices for TVs between Sony and Toshiba. The last off-brand I bought whined (that irritating high pitched variety) so bad I took it back to the store. With respect to flat screens, there is little difference in price so let your eyes decide between the Sony and Toshiba. I have a Toshiba DVD player and hooked it up to the color stream connections. WOW! I never thought that you achieve such picture quality at home. The Technics amplifer works great to augment the sound quality as well. The bottom line is if you are looking for a 32 inch flat screen, this may be the one. One last note. The delivery guys were great. Even took it out of the box for me and let me plug it in before they left. They would have carried the set upstairs to the master bedroom if that was its ultimate destination. If that had been the case, it would have a been a lifesaver given the set weighs 170 pounds! As it was, they placed it, at my request, within 10 feet of its ultimate destination (which gave me the opportunity to clear out the old set and install the new one within a couple of hours). Keep all that in mind if you are thinking about buying one locally and picking it up from the store. Thanks Amazon!

Rating: Summary: Peel Me off the Couch Review: This is truly a wondrous set: the flat screen gives every image more depth and range, and the picture is tremendous. True, it doesn't have a built-in clock feature (which is fine as long as you have a VCR that does), and the set is massively heavy, but its well worth these minor inconveniences. I checked into many, many different sets, researched for months, and kept coming back to the Toshiba brand. Regular programs look spiffy and DVDs postively resonate. For the money, this is about the best there is. One thing to take note of, though: if you buy this set, be prepared to buy a special TV stand you can mount it on. This TV is heavy enough to flatten anything undersized, so be forewarned.
Rating: Summary: Delivered. Review: TV delivery went smoothly. Six days after the order, the delivery company called to set up the delivery time. The delivery guys arrived on time, carried the 150 lb. TV up two flights of stairs, unboxed it, carefully set it down on my stand, then took the packing with them. Kudos to Amazon and Eagle Delivery. Great job. The TV has exceeded my expections. Great Picture! Easy set-up and ajustments. I did read the manual two days after I wired it up to the home theater, dvd and vcr, and had played with all the settings, but needn't have bothered. The good speakers and sound was unexpected. I only use the home theater sound for DVD viewing.

Rating: Summary: Wow! Great Picture! Review: When I was going for a flat-tube TV I was going to buy a WEGA. They're popular, and they have nice features. Then I saw this Toshiba TV next to it. The picture on the Toshiba was much, much sharper than the Sony, and I couldn't see any huge horizontal lines the Sony had. So, if your going for a good TV check this one out. It might be worth it.
