I had this TV for about 10 days. The first 7 days, the TV had a bright, sharp, color picture. The sound was fantastic! After 7 days of only using 2 to 3 hours per day, the speakers began to vibrate the TV cabinet. Then, on day 10, the TV's picture was not as bright or sharp as it started out; 10 days ago. I took it back to Target for refund. This TV looks like a real good deal, with all of it's features like MTS/SAP sound, 3 sets of input/output jacks, 2 sets on rear, and one set up front. It's big sound, separate Bass and Treble tone control, and 27" beautiful picture. The truth is, it will not remain as good as it was when you brought it home; after just about 7 days! My advice is this: If you don't mind the TV acting like one that is several years old(picture not as sharp, brightness not as bright, and speakers sounding like they been played too loud); then this TV is ok for you. I was disappointed in how quick the picture of this new TV began to degrade, and speakers began to vibrate cabinet. You can get this TV for $170.00 at Target right now; but there are better choices. This TV is very heavy in weight(about 80 LBS!) It does have built-in carry handles, which helps.

Despite the cheap price (on clearance from Target at $143), it isn't worth the money. Out of the box the picture is very grainy and the top 4 inches of the screen appears as a light grey instead of black. The number of connections on the back/front are impressive for a set in this price range (3 inputs + S-video). I've owned other Daewoo products in the past (and still do) and they've been stellar, but this one is really disappointing.
