slippy Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 My 76 year old Great Aunt wants a 17" or 19" Combi LCD/DVD TV so can anybody recomend for around the £200 ish I had a look about and I can't even pronounce the brand names on most of the ones available Thanks in advance Quote
Bob Green Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Try UMC 19" from Currys. I bought the step daughter one and it is really good for the price. Quote
slippy Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 Cheers mate I have just found TV+TELEVISION.htm" target="_blank">A WHARFEDALE that looks ok Quote
slippy Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 It Appears a combi is not the way forward Quote
marshalla Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 We just got an "own brand" (Orion) 19" LCD/DVD/Freeview from Comet for £220. Not bad - and worth the extra £20 to get the digital tuner built-in. Edit to add : It's HD ready (with HDMI) and looks exactly like that Wharfedale - except for the badge Quote
slippy Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 Cheers mate think I might get her a stand alone and a cheap DVD to stick underneath Quote
carpetstu Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Be careful with wharfedale they ain't that good, its goodmans in disguise. Buying a combi is good for space but is generally more money than seperates. Try www.flatdeal.com they have some good prices on TV stuff and you may get branded ones for similar money to some of the better non branded. Be very careful with cheap screen lcd tvs thay have a habit of blowing pixels. Hope this helps Quote
Asterix Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 It Appears a combi is not the way forward Yep, but that's been known since the moment LCD sales started Quote
carpetstu Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Just had a quick look on Flatdeal's site. They have a super 103" Panasonic at a superb low price of £49,999.00. What a bargain. Watching lotto b4 I commit to buy. Quote
slippy Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 It Appears a combi is not the way forward Yep, but that's been known since the moment LCD sales started Not in my world it hasn't my old son I've never had cause to investigate previously 103" tv that I need to see Quote
Pilot Pete Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 I've heard combi's can get a bit hot and dont tend to last. Indeed my sis has one and the DVD has stopped working. I'd go for seperates. Quote
