Toshiba 26AV502U What An Upgrade!

I love this flat screen TV. I had bought a new JVC tube TV a few years ago which, surprisingly, went dead after just two years. So, I bought an old 20 inch tube off Craigslist for $20. I'm not that picky, and ignored my friends when they teased me about half my screen turning everyone "green" and the fuzzy picture. Still, I was sticking to my guns. Until I bought my 89-year old mom, a 22 inch flat screen a couple of months ago.I decided to pick a price point and when a 26 inch flat screen hit that point, I would jump on it. I had targeted this Toshiba and was tracking it on several sites. Amazon, in all their brilliance, dropped their prices the days after Christmas and scooped their competition. I also knew that I could trust Amazon, as opposed to sellers I never heard of, and so I bought this set from them. It arrived way before the promised date, and was fairly easy to set up. It works great, easy to use, volume is fine, despite a couple of reviews to the contrary. Would recommend this to anyone looking for an apartment-sized TV, or one for a bedroom. What a difference in viewing from anything I've had before.

Toshiba 26AV502U Buy this, you won't be sorry.

Before Christmas we looked at several brands ranging in price from $399 to $550 in the 26-32 inch range. The Toshiba brand made the difference since the other sets in our price range were mostly off brand sets. We received the TV in less than a week, delivered to the door. Setup was easy. The manual is complete and easily understood. This TV is located in an area of the house with a lot of sunlight. Color is sharp with a minimum of glare. Sound quality is great although we will be adding some external speakers for more depth. For the price this is an excellent buy. You won't be sorry.

Toshiba 26AV502U Great LCD HDTV at a great price

I received the Toshiba 26AV502U a few days ago, and have been blown away by its presentation and features so far. It being my first LCD HDTV, I'm not a real expert on what to look for in an HDTV other than a nice picture, something the Toshiba 26AV502U excels in. I have not experienced the sound problems others have been having; the sound, in my opinion, is perfect. If you're shopping for an LCD HDTV at a great price, you can't go wrong with this one.

Toshiba 26AV502U Great TV, Great Price

After much searching and researching I purchased this TV from Amazon as it was the best deal, with the features I wanted, for this model and fit my space limitations perfectly.

Pros:
Easy to set up. Good picture quality, good color, blacks look fine to me so can't agree with other reviewers, good remote, works well with over the air antenna. Sounds great with my cheap Pioneer surround sound. I'd rate the on board sound fine as well. I didn't find the manual at all difficult to interpret. I had it scanning channels with a cheap antenna 10 minutes after taking it out of the box. It picked up 32 over the air channels. I do live on a hill in a major metro area so that may help. I've seen some digital signal breakup when viewing distant stations when there is heavy rain but you cannot fault the TV for that. I do not have this TV placed in an optimal viewing location, 8" above ground level inside a built-in cabinet so the viewing angle is from above looking down, hardly optimal, and I still think the picture is fine. I was concerned about the viewing based on other reviews? Side angle viewing I would rate exceptional.

Cons: None. Its a good TV for the money.

Other: It would have been nice if my old Panasonic surround sound would pick up the Toshiba remote.
