Good points:: Well priced item, cheapest 22 inch TV we could find on the internet. Despite a couple of improvements which could be made it's overall a very good buy.
Bad points:: No off switch on the TV itself so you have to switch off at the power point otherwise it remains on standby. Picture quality not brilliant but not expecting that for the price paid

Shrek, The Swamp value for money

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: I bought this tv for elderly parents. Set up was so simple almost plug and play. The remote is clear and again easy to use. What we liked most about this item is the nice sleek slim frame around the screen with a neat stand. Picture is awesome for a tv this size.
Bad points:: Not really a bad point, but if you are looking for surround stereo sound then this is not the tv for you but lets face it, its for the oldies amongst us a portable tv, great value for money for a second room tv or for the kitchen/conservatory.
