1.0 out of 5 stars Would Be Rated Zero Stars If That Was An Option, January 14, 2005

Ordered one, despite the reviews, and it arrived DOA.

Amazon very quickly sent out a replacement, with expedited shipping (way to go Amazon), but that too was DOA.

Don't bother with this unit, which by the way is not an Axion, it is ACTION. Even the cardboard box it is packaged in is cheap and recycled. Too bad.

I am going to order a different brand, one that is rated highly!!!

This review is from: Action ACN-3518 5" Portable Black & White TV with AM/FM Radio (Electronics)

Any TVs from AXION or American Action should be avoided. I hear nothing but trouble about them, and I have recently purchased an TFT LCD 3.2" color TV by AXION, and it's a big disappointment. This type of TV is fine, if it's not from American Action or AXION. I have a Sylvania that looks exactly like this one, and it works great! Just don't buy an AXION or American Action model, and it will be ok.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing reception, nice picture and price., March 3, 2004

This review is from: Action ACN-3518 5" Portable Black & White TV with AM/FM Radio (Electronics)

I was very disappointed that through no fault of this product, in the Cleveland/Akron area, I only could receive one channel inside or out. It is ideal though for hooking up a video game, DVD player, or any other video source, and the AM-FM radio is a great feature. Also, just a non-solicited note, I want to thank Amazon for carrying this and similar obscure products. I searched Best Buy, Circuit City and Wal-Mart (smaller electronics section so I understand)looking for a similar product to no avail. Through product reviews and customer comments, I was able to get much more information here than at the retailers. Ultimately, I did return the TV to Amazon.
