4.0 out of 5 stars A very nice HDTV/DVD combo
Toshiba has done it again! The HDTV picture is sharp and lifelike, and the unit includes easy-to-use picture reformatting options to watch TV-formatted movies and sports on the wide screen. The included DVD player also plays music discs and MP3 CDs, with some of the best sound I have ever heard from a stereo TV. This unit is priced higher than similarly-sized HDTVs...

3.0 out of 5 stars Extra Features need some work
I agree with previous comments re. picture quality. I disagree w/ comments on the remote. It is overly complicated which is even more complicated in low light since it is not back lit. TV Guide feature needs to be easier to use - it is a helpful feature though if you use a Cable Card. It is very nice to be free of the cable box! The reason I gave 3 stars is that a product...

This review is from: Toshiba 27HLV95 27-Inch TheaterWide Flat Panel LCD HDTV/DVD Combo (Electronics)
Toshiba has done it again! The HDTV picture is sharp and lifelike, and the unit includes easy-to-use picture reformatting options to watch TV-formatted movies and sports on the wide screen. The included DVD player also plays music discs and MP3 CDs, with some of the best sound I have ever heard from a stereo TV. This unit is priced higher than similarly-sized HDTVs (without DVD) but it is a premium product worth a little extra.

Unfortunately, the OEM wall mount by Toshiba for this size flat screen has been discontinued. However, the TV has VESA standard 100 x 200 mounting threads, and I was able to order an aftermarket tilt mount and put it on the wall in less than an hour.

The only real annoyance I found is that the "TV Guide" program menu is defaulted to demand set up when the TV power is turned on. It took me a few irritating days to learn how to disable the TV Guide, deep in the menus. This feature is intrusive and completely unnecessary to anyone who has a program guide with their cable or satellite.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just plug in and you've got it all., July 15, 2007

This review is from: Toshiba 27HLV95 27-Inch TheaterWide Flat Panel LCD HDTV/DVD Combo (Electronics)
I looked for a long time to find the ideal all around widescreen TV for my bedroom/office. The Toshiba 7HLV95 has the following features that make it by far the most convenient TV out there:

(1) Flat panel High Definition LCD widescreen.(27" fits anywhere) Can be wall mounted too.
(2) Built-in DVD player.
(3) Can be used as a PC monitor.
(4) Offers cableCARD slot so that you don't have to have a set-top box from the cable or satellite company. Instead, you insert the coaxial directly into the TV and a small flash card and you get all your channels without an ugly extra box. However, if you still want to use a set top box, DVR, satellite or antennae--- that's OK, you can still plug any of those in too!

I am shocked that anyone had trouble with the TV guide. The TV Guide feature is a easy to use and if you prefer the guide you are already used to--- just push the large ENTER button on the exact center of the remote and go directly to manual control or the guide offered by your cable or satellite guides. A no-brainer! The other HDTV widescreen DVD combo contender I considered was the Sharp with built in DVD but since it offers no CableCARD-- with Sharp you still need a set-top box cluttering your room. There is no extra clutter or wires with the Toshiba 27HLV95. Just plug it into the wall and you've got it all! Flat panel HDTV, DVD, CableCARD and PC monitor.
