Rating: - More than just cheap and cheerful, this one's positively sunshiny
Fantastic low price for a 19-inch HD-ready widescreen LCD with Freeview, though an initial glance does make it easy to see where the savings were made. The stand is a bit flimsy, the entire backplane flexes away from you when you push the power lead home, and some of the Freeview features appear to have been implemented as part of a GCSE project. For example, rather than showing a grid full of channels and times like you'd see on any standalone digibox, this Polaroid's electronic program guide (EPG) ... Read More
Rating: - Better than expected.
Having looked for some time at TV,s at this size,price& colour and not seeing anything that empressed, it was with some caution and trepidation, ordered this set.All I can say is the picture is far better than expected and the ease of start-up was most impressive.The sound is rather 'Tinny',but adjustment to the audio control has improved it.
I would also say the delivery was very good, bearing in mind it was free.

TV is fine apart from having to increase the brightness each time it is switched on, until it warms up. Seems to be less of a problem if the TV is left on standby.
Does anyone else have the same problem?

Rating: - Far better than you'd expect for the price
After reading some of the other reviews I was a little concerned about the negative comments regarding the viewing angle. However, when I connected up the set my worries were unfounded. The viewing angle is as good as far more expensive sets we also own and switching into 'Vivid' mode made it even better.
The set looks great, the white case seems to disappear against our walls leaving a floating picture, nice. Image quality and response time is great, even from a non-HD source. A DVD on the SCART worked ... Read More
