not enough volume
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I had to return this item because the base was not properly secured to the screen. Other reviewers have noted this problem. For the record, the Amazon return process was flawless — and FREE, because the item was defective. Just make sure you return items within 30 days.
The picture quality was crisp — just beautiful. The controls are easy to use and understand. The manual is useful. But there is just not enough sound volume, especially on DVDs.

Awesome
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I purchased this TV from Amazon to use in my Travel Trailer since the old TV would not work due to the switch to digital. I was very surprised when I performed auto program and it found 29 digital and 2 analog channels, some more than 30 miles away. In the same location with the old analog signal I could only receive 5 stations (some fuzzy) at the most.
I also purchased a powered table antenna but found out it wasn’t needed because the trailer antenna worked as well or better.
The set has excellent sound and the picture is very clear with bright colors. The remote is easy to use and you only press one button to go from TV to DVD.
This set is ideal for using around the house, RV, or any place you have ac to power the unit.

A great pick
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Beautiful color! Beautiful sound! Great that you can just put a DVD in it and it starts playing–without hitting a lot of buttons. It even plays CDs!
True, it is a bit slow at switching channels. Would be nice if the screen could turn, but I guess all you need to do is to turn the the base and all–no biggie.
All in all, the good outweighs everything else. I love it and recommend it to all my friends who are looking for a smaller screen tv/dvd player. I wanted something for my kitchen and did not want one real tiny or one that could mount on the wall. I wanted something small but not tooo big, and something that would play DVDs and CDs, too. I did not need a radio or clock.
A great price too for what you get. I am a very satisfied customer!

15.6 Toshiba TV
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Our little ‘extra’ TV arrived promptly and we were pleased with it’s looks and capability.
I hooked it up, set it up and it’s been used every day in our bedroom without any problems.
The picture is sharp, the CD player is handy and easy to use.
I bought it as a ‘daily special’ and was very happy with the price as well.

Good For The Price

Very user friendly and easy to set up, this small television is perfect for small spaces. probably the only con is the fact that the screen is not made to tilt, other than that it’s all good.

a great TV for the bedroom
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This small, widescreen, LCD TV is just the right size for a bedside table. The picture is sharp and clear, the sound crisp and clean, and the styling is unobtrusive. It also has the added perk of a built-in DVD player. It is very light, only a few pounds, which makes it a candidate for being carried with one hand to other venues. I can see a rabid football fan bringing this little TV to join the bigger picture-in-picture TV to allow the viewing of 3 football games at the same time. The DVD is good for playing how-to video’s that really require for you to “do-along-with-me” in order to learn a new skill such as knitting, sewing, fly tying, basket making, etc.
I have found this item to be the most useful and versatile TV I have ever owned. I am sure you can think of just the place for one in your home. It is definitely a very good value.
Oh, yeah, no angst in choosing the “right” color – it only comes in patent leather black!

Wrong specs
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
While this TV is very compact and provides beautiful picture and nice sound, Amazon’s specifications regarding the DIVX playback are entirely wrong.
Being able to play MPEG4 files was a major selling point for me, however, upon receiving this model I found out that it will not play any DIVX file despite Amazon’s proud promise.
If you just want to watch TV, it is OK, go for it.
But I am warning those who need more than regular DVD playback.
I am returning this product and replacing it with a 19″ combo which is DIVX certified according to Toshiba.
To Amazon’s staff: please consider revising the technical details as it is not fair to the customers.
Thank you!

Awesome TV!

Bought this TV for the kitchen counter. Sharp clear picture. We are using rabbit ears antenna and pick up the local air wave channels beautifully. Antenna not included and was purchased separately. DVD works great. Love it!

Toshiba 15LV505
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Bought this Toshiba on Amazon for my bedroom. I have been very happy with it. I looked at other smaller TV’s and found the sound systems to be inferior; some had to be turned up all the way. I love this Toshiba because I can adjust the treble and bass, it sounds great. The picture is sharp clear and colorful.
I had some trouble trying to get “rabbit” ears to work, but took both of them back. I have resorted to cable (basic) without any box. It pulls them in easily. I was too hasty in channel search, but found that it takes time to adjust each station ~ but after it settles down, I discovered that I can get LOTS more programs. 4 isn’t just 4, but you can get 40101, 40102, 40103 etc… on several of the stations. As a result I can view most things ( not CNN ) but I can live without that. Would highly recommend it to anyone. You can adjust the size of the screen to be “traditional” or Wide or Theatre, etc…. and the closed caption is great as well. I have a long cord with headphones and it doesn’t disturb anyone else if needed. The volume can be set to 1 or 2 with it, and it is plently loud.

Nice Little TV
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
Very nice television for the size. A little pricey but that’s to be expected from Toshiba. Great picture as expected from Toshiba. The only downside is that the channel labeling only allows 4 characters which makes it challenging to label your channels. It also does not have a favorites menu for adding the channels you watch most instead of cycling to each channel every time which brings up another issue with this new digital transition not being remote friendly unless you use their cable box and remote(NOT the television). It would be nice if the televisions automatically detected and labeled the channels according to the channel broadcaster owner.

Perfect for college dorm
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought this tv for my daughter for her college room. The size and the look is perfect. The small, thin size of it doesn’t take up much space, and the picture is great. Easy set-up — we just plugged it into the cable and it was good to go. Picture quality is great.

good little hdtv
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is a nice little hdtv. I have it in my living room which isn’t very big. I like that it has a dvd player in it. I have basic cable so I get excellent reception. A lot of bang for the buck.

This set is ideal for the space I have in the kitchen, the picture is clear and the sound is good for such an small item. I haven’t use the dvd player yet.

Great tv for kitchen
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I bought this tv for my kitchen. It is perfect size for the counter. It has a great picture and sound is not a problem like I have read on reviews of other small sets. The only thing that bothers me some is the delay when switching channels. Just a little too much thinking time. Other than that…great! I have not really used the built in dvd but did try it. It appears to work well. Great tv for a great price!

I purchased this TV for the the bedroom in my Motor Coach. This TV has great picture and sound quality and it’s name brand (which is hard to find in a smaller screen TV). The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is the stand doesn’t tilt.

All-In-One Perfection
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I love this! All-in-one, I have ours in the kitchen. I can watch TV, a DVD, or listen to a CD. The image is excellent, the sound quality very good and the operation simple. And it takes up the tiniest of space. If you’re needing a small unit, this is the one for you.

Cute TV

I bought this for my daughters room and they love it. It’s simple to use and operate and very convenient with the built-in DVD player. I would purchase this again…just wish that it could be mounted.

Great TV & DVD player

I bought this as a back up in case we loose our Fios system. This is in our computer room and bought the Terk HDTVa Indoor Amplified High-Definition Antenna for Off-Air HDTV Reception to go along with it. This system works great.

Just right for what I needed
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I read the reviews from others before I bought this item. And I have to agree with them. It is great for the size TV it is. It does have a slight delay in changing channels at times, but that is not an issue for me.
