Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Watch your favorite cooking shows or keep up on the latest TV and radio news while you're in the kitchen with the Polaroid FCM-0700A under-the-cabinet LCD TV. It has a seven-inch color LCD screen with a 16-to-nine aspect ratio that gives you a beautiful and sharp color picture. The LCD screen swivels up to 180 degrees so you can view it easily from almost any angle in the room, and the screen folds flat for convenient storage when you are not using it. This set comes with a 181-channel cable-ready television tuner.

In addition to a TV tuner, the FCM-0700A incorporates a digital AM/FM stereo tuner that comes with 20 preset stations. The two 2.5-watt built-in stereo speakers deliver crisp, clear sound anywhere and everywhere, while the automatic channel programming makes setup incredibly easy. This unit also includes a built-in clock with a battery backup and an alarm and sleep timer.

With variable-height mounting, the FCM-700A will fit in virtually any cabinet and comes with an extremely handy, full-function remote control with a built-in magnet that allows you to store it upright on any metal surface, such as your refrigerator door. This Polaroid TV has a rear A/V input and a rear ANT coaxial input to connect to, allowing you to hook up a VCR, gaming console, or camcorder. Compact and unobtrusive, this unit weighs a modest 4.5 pounds and measures a slim three-inches high (with the screen in the up position), by 14-inches wide and 11.25 inches deep. The FCM-700A also features an on-screen display menu, sub-title selection, language selection, zoom, fast and slow forward/backward and step forward functions, and parental locks to make sure your kids don't watch inappropriate shows.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tinny sound, sub-average picture, February 6, 2005
By Peter B. Degroot (Ashland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Since I am the chief cook in the family, I use this TV in the kitchen. It is better than not being able to watch Iron Chef at all while I am chained to the stove, but not by much. I guess you get (at best) what you pay for. The first problem was the mounting template. It was inaccurate and didn't match the screw holes in the TV. To add insult to injury, the mounting screws are VERY fine thread; hard to start unless perfectly aligned, and easy to cross-thread. Once I finally got it mounted, the disappointment continued. It is impossible to set the brightness and contrast and forget it. If you set it so a given channel and program is watchable, odds are it will be washed out or too dark on the next channel, or even the next program on the same channel. By default, the TV comes on in the wide (16:9 aspect ratio) mode. Since 90% of programming is still in the 4:3 mode, you have to change it almost every time you turn it on. The remote requires that you press the "OK" button after entering the channnel number if it less than 100 - the TV is not smart enought to figure out that 027 means channel 27. The remote also uses an expensive and short-lived "button" battery, similar to a watch battery. Sound quality is on a par with a $9.95 portable radio, which pretty much makes the built-in AM/FM radio useless for listening to music. Bottom line: a big disappointment, even at a low price.

1.0 out of 5 stars Had to send it back, January 17, 2005
By John F. Donohue (Golden, Colorado) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
First off the AM/FM tuner is awful. I get better reception on a transistor radio. The speaker system was very tinny also. I could have lived with that since the LCD seemed to work very well at first. After one day, the TV would shut down after a few minutes of playing. It would require unplugging to get the system to start working again. Again after a few minutes it would shut down.
I traded it in for the SONY.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for my laundry room!, November 26, 2004
By jwalton "4forjen" (Thousand Oaks, CA United States) - See all my reviews
For the price this little t.v. does exactly what I need. Radio or t.v. while folding laundry. The picture is fine. The other thing that is great about this version of the under the cabinets is the depth. Most of the other versions are to deep and stick out past the upper cabinet. I just got it...I will redo my review if it doesn't hold up.
