When my 15+ yr.old 5" Sony Under-counter bracket mounted color tv (with AM/FM radio)"expired" suddenly,I searched for a replacement; it took days to find this Jensen. None of the others had the features I wanted combined into one unit. I needed a simple wall plug-in (this one also is cable ready & VCR ready AND comes with a car adapter for traveling, AND a headphone outlet). Since I live in NY City, direct local channel reception on a basic tv (7 prime + 6 UHF)is not a problem. If I lived in a rural or remote area, I'm sure receiving a signal would be impossible. This is a true space-saver device. The price is much less than was expected. $138.99(+$8.99 delivery charge)We paid almost $400. for the original Sony. The picture is perfect, as is the color, sound & radio tuner. The swiveling feature is a plus - all angle viewing! It was delivered a week earlier than promised from Amazon's Marketplace Affiliate Merchant. Thanks to Amazon, time spent in the kitchen doesn't seem like a "chore" anymore!

We are looking for a replacement portable color TV/AM/FM for an
old GE that we've used daily for over a dozen years. This Jensen
is unfortunately not it.

The picture and sound are poorer than the GE's, tuning is
completely manual, and there are no presets. On the plus side,
the Jensen is smaller and lighter, and has audio/video/cable inputs. It also has an AC adaptor, and a 12V cord/adaptor for use in a car.

I expect that I'll use it for setting up my surround sound
system, then give it to our church for the upcoming rummage sale.

I am very pleased with the quality picture this TV has. It arrived quickly and was packaged in an extremely safe and secure manner. These little TVs are hard to find in stores now and I needed one for a nursing home patient. The price was fair and the TV has a clear picture without a lot of messing around with the antennae.

This is a good product, however it would be a great product if it came with a bow tie antenna. Picture was unstable without the extra antenna. Now it works great!

The TV was great. It had a super picture for such a small and inexpensive model. The only problem that occured was that the TV broke after only 8 hours of use. I would purchase this item again and wil hopefully get a model that works better and longer.

I find the sound somewhat tinny and the picture not as sharp as it should be -- fine lines visible on the screen. It's a compromise I accept in order to have a TV-radio combination, which is hard to find.

This product is old and outdated. Finding a station takes you back twenty years. Not a strong product.

This portable color tv doesn't give me any channel that you can actually watch. I returned it and I was credited. However, much to my surprise I received the same five inch tv as I had returned. It already cost me to have it returned. Since I didn't ask for it, should I consider it a gift?
