Customer Rating:      Summary: Plan on buying bulbs every year Comment: Just like many other posters, we've had problems with the bulbs going out. We replaced the bulb for the first time a year after we purchased the set. Now less than 6 months later the bulb blew again. This is just ridiculous. We bought ours based on reviews from consumer reports. I guess it just goes to show that nothings a sure bet.
Customer Rating:      Summary: great buy Comment: First off, I love this TV! I play a lot of video games and watch blu-ray movies and the picture quality is very good. whoever says that it's not is full of it. I have a 1080p tv also and they are very close in picture quality. I have owned this tv for about 19 months now and have not had to change a bulb yet. I would recomend this tv to everyone. For the ones who have had to replace their bulbs, I think you just got a bad apple....it happens with all tv's, even the best. good luck
Customer Rating:      Summary: Planned Failure makes for hidden costs Comment: Its a great TV, good price for the size, but that low price hides the hidden cost.
The $250 lamps. They last about year, (I got 18 months out of mine). You are essentially buying a $250 halogen lamp that should cost $50. So yah, its planned thing, a way for Toshiba to milk more money out of you. And any time they want to force you to buy a new TV all the need to do is stop making that lamp.
Spend a bit more on a LCD TV, or another brand entirely.
It does get 2 stars for being a good TV, as long as you pay the yearly "subscription" charge to use it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: WORST PIECE OF ELECTRONICS EVER MADE- Comment: YES, IT WAS REFURBISHED BUT WITHIN 6 MONTHS I HAD TO BUY NEW LAMP KIT FOR ALMOST $300 THEN A BLACK MARK APPEARED AT TOP OF SCREEN & IT WILL COSTS $600 TO FIX IT!!! ABSOLUTELY NO GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM TOSHIBA AFTER LETTERS, EMAILS & CALLS. WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Tremendous TV - But Get A Great Deal First Comment: This is our Tax Refund gift to our family, purchased in March of 2007. The TV retails for around $1200 nearly every where you look, but we were able to find it for less than $930. The best price I have found on the net is $730.
I would highly recommend this TV to anyone looking for a great, great picture and average sound. If sound is terribly important to you, you already own a surround sound system.
My bulb did blow nine months into owning it... not sure how many hours, but I know it is on nearly all day! I called Toshiba and they are processing the replacement bulb to be sent to me now (under warranty). Someone complained that bulbs cost $600... that's nonsense - before Toshiba came through I priced them as low as $229.00 No, I don't want to pay that every nine months; I think I could find the bulb for less down the road and I did save substantially in the initial purchase.
