+ Fabulous colour. Good size for a bedroom. My daughter was thrilled with the television. Really easy to set up. It would be nice if there was a few more childrens channels on the freeview, however that is not the fault of the television.

+ The color, the quality of image, although I am not currently using it for HD channels; the size fit my needs very well and the price, compared with other sites and products in the market was very good.

- Not easy to connect to my current SKY box, the design to connect the antenna was not very friendly

+ Easy to set up. Convenient controls. Deep pink case makes a change from the usual compulsory black/grey.Good range of picture adjustment to produce natural colours.

- Internal speakers have limited frequency range. Image quality though good for LCD, is still way below my CRT.

+ Good for a smaller room but picture is better when viewed from a distance of about 2 to 3 metres.
I was worried about the colour but it looks fantastic, not "Barbie" pink.
Sound is good.
Very comparable in quality to the larger Sony which we have

Score 10.0/10

+ It is a nice looking TV that works well. I bought it for the study, so the colour was not an issue, in fact in this room it livens it up and it was cheaper than a more conventional colour!

- As I have mounted almost on the ceiling (because of the layout of our room) I can't reach the control buttons without using a ladder! however I consider this as my problem not a fault with the tv! I simply leave it turned on and use the plug switch to turn the tv off and on.

Score 8.0/10

+ Attractive appearance: (1) the screen has only a thin surround on top and sides. (2) The availability of coloured finishes in this range means that it can be accommodated into an interior colour scheme, without looking like "yet another bit of technology".
Easy to set up and use.
Picture is sharp enough, yet somehow soft on the eye. More natural colour display than competitors (just my opinion, maybe).

- More expensive than rivals. Spec starting to be overtaken by new models - if that matters to you.

- Right now the only bad points are that I cannot receive all the channels including Freeview, but I am told it could be the aerial. Waiting for it to be sorted out. Watch this space!

- To wall mount it you need to remove the table stand. This took over an hour to do as the screws holding the stand in place dont release properly.
