Summary: Super!
Review: I had a wonderful Emerson (RED) 10"
TV which I won years ago at a drawing:) ..
but it, like we all .. went bellyup
.. and I have a small kitchen table..
I had bought a 13" set cause could not
find anything smaller which took CABLE ..
it was HUGE on that table . Then I
found the Philips/Magnavox .. it
arrived last night .. hooked it up
today and it is just incredible .. also has
FM radio .. which I did NOT know..
what a plus that is! .. Gets all regular
& cable channels .. and does NOT take
up MOST of the table as did the 13" TV ..
soooo I love it (would have preferred
Red .. but white is OK too:) ..

Review: I had been searching for a 9" TV for several months. It seems odd that one can purchase a perfectly good 13" television for under $..., but I couldn't find a decent 9" unit for under $.... At our home we have made a family habit of watching Wheel and Jeopardy every evening during dinner. Our old 5" black and white was dying and I wanted another set that would squeeze in to our small dining room.I had been frustrated at the local retailers who only seemed to offer an RCA TV that I had misgivings about. I also didn't feel like spending big dollars for a TV that gets 5 hours of use per week. I had seen the Phillips 9" TV at the local Best Buy, but the only unit they had left was an open box unit that was missing it's power cord and was priced at $.... I took a chance on ordering a reconditioned unit thorough Amazon. I figured if it didn't work out, I could always return it. When it arrived, it looked new. There were no physical flaws. Setup took less than ten minutes. The picture tube is nice and bright, with excellent resolution. The only drawback with the set is that the it's signal sensitivity is only fair. If you are connecting to cable or an outdoor antenna this will present no problem to you. My home has aluminum siding, making indoor reception a little challenging. I found that the included monopole antenna was adequate but not as good as I would have liked. I am a TV broadcast engineer by profession, so I tend to be a little more critical than most. In any case, I was able to improve reception dramatically by substituting a pair of rabbit ear antennas (you know , the old type with two rods that stick up) that I had lying around. You can buy a cheap pair of rabbit ears at any Radio Shack. Now I get very good reception and an excellent picture. Even my cynical 16 year old son was impressed. With shipping, the whole TV cost around $.... I think this an excellent value.

Summary: Excellent TV
Review: I've had this TV now for 4 months and I have to say it's GREAT. Great picture, sound, size. I agree with one other reviewer that the FM tuner not having a pre-set for stations isn't great, but I rarely use that feature anyway, and it's just nice to have the FM tuner there in the first place. Great size. I really wanted to have it with portable capability for use in car or with batteries, but the value is outstanding and I would highly recommend it to anyone. This is the 3rd Phillips Magnavox we've owned in the past 15-20 years, and we've been pleased with them all.

Summary: A great little TV
Review: No problem with audible "humming" with this TV. It has a brilliant, sharp picture and the sound is fine for a small TV. The FM tuner is not the best and the stations are chosen by running the on screen frequency numbers with the up & down arrow keys. Turning the TV helps the FM signal but the bracket won't allow for 180 degree rotation so you may miss the strongest signal. The TV remembers your pre-programmed TV stations so if you use it from one location to another in your home or use it in your RV you won't lose your programming every time you disconnect the AC power. Philips has become our first choice in TV's, we have a couple other larger sets. This is a terrific little TV, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Review: The audio for this TV did not sound unless the reception for the picture was perfect, for instance in a normal tv when there is only snow you hear something (snow sound) if the reception for this tv is less than perfect using the antenna and the picture is a little snowy the audio remains mute , really annoying when you can still see a picture but no audio, I brought it back

Review: This is by far the BEST toaster that I have ever owned....Image watching TV on your toaster - What a great idea!!! I mean, did someone get an award for this? I usually bring this up to bed with me at night along with two slices of bread, two slices of cheese and a tomato (already cut) so I can watch TV and have breakfast in bed as soon as I wake up. My wife just left me and this toaster is also great to snuggle with. I have to clean my hat.

Summary: Good picture, but it died
Review: This TV has a great picture and sound, but... Our unit also had the annoying hum and finally
died a month after the 90 day warranty ran out.
No picture, no sound, nothing. Luckily, the store
we bought it from was nice enough to take it
back. This TV was purchased for the kitchen, and it
would have been nice if the remote buttons were
covered or sealed like some of the other brands.

Review: This TV is great for the kitchen. It comes with a bracket for under the cabinets. The best part is the built-in radio! Just wish it was DC too. It really saves space. It is white which looks good in my kitchen. The price and the service from amazon.com was excellent. Thanks for the good deal.
