1.0 out of 5 stars Worst TV, December 29, 2006

This review is from: 27" Westinghouse LTV-27w6 720p Widescreen LCD HDTV - 16:9 1000:1 8ms 1 HDMI ATSC/NTSC Tuners (Black) (Electronics)

I bought a Westinghouse LCD TV from Best Buy and it did not work from the first day. The picture froze after 30 minutes. It would not turn on without being unplugged and plugged back in. The picture quality was awsome while it was on though. I bought a Best Buy 4 year service plan and they could not find parts for this TV to service it. If it breaks, it cannot be fixed. I returned it for a refund and Best Buy did not refund the full amount of purchase, even within 30 days! Do not buy this TV!

I have to say I was very wary as many of you might be when it comes to purchasing a product with a company with little to nil track record. But I did my homework. Scanned all the techie forums, read up on it, and decided even with the problems that might occur (most of which can happen to any LCD TV of any brand) I felt it was a safe buy.

And so far it has been. I've had no problems whatsoever. No dead pixels, no white lines or uncentered, all inputs work accordingly. Haven't checked VGA yet because I need a cord but will soon. There is a line on the side but this only shows up when watching NBC in HD. And mainly only noticeable when it's showing standard aspect 4:3 ratio like commercials and what not.

I don't really have the budget to get something high end, but then again there's nothing wrong with this TV, it can easily compare with any other good TV. If you think HD broadcasting looks brilliant wait till you watch upconverted DVDs in 1080i or HD DVDs. I picked up the Toshiba HD-A1 from Amazon as well and that's another smart purchase. I just wish it had another HDMI input so I could hook up the PC via HDMI to DVI. But I'm ok with sticking with VGA just to not have to keep switching cables and only selecting inputs by remote.
I say if you have the cash to spare go for it. And get an extended warranty either way. It's worth it. Obviously if you have more money to spare you'll go with something more well known. But as a regular joe like myself, it definitely met my expectations and more.

I really like this TV so far. Good price, good quality, and I have had no real problems with this tv as of yet. I have not seen the white line that the earlier review spoke about or the problem with the centering. To tell you the truth I am not even sure what problem was being described with the centering. Works for me! The only problem I have had is with external speakers, and I am pretty sure that it is actually a case of RTFM with me on that problem. I would reccomend this TV to people looking for a nice 720p HDTV at a reasonable price. Just so you know I am not some stupid guy that doesn't understand technology, I have been in the computer video industry for almost 4 years and have been looking into a lot of HDTV's and settled on this one for now. Next stop, Sony XBR 46" 1080p, waaaahoooooooo!
