Does this look too good to be true? Does anyone know of this make. I cant get an M & S one and its only for my sons bedroom so he only watches it now and again and plays his X Box on it.

I think its ok price due to it having a DVD player, but you could go for 1 inch bigger for the same price (but without DVD player) at Argos and get a £5 voucher for spending over £50.

Good reviews too.

IKASU is quite a well known make, quite widely available. My only comment is that it is a graded item - it may have been returned and repaired. That said our SONY version only lasted two years and had to have a new screen!!! Thank goodness I took out insurance.

£130 will get you a 17" TV/Freevie/DVD from ebuyer

No idea if it's any good though!

I bought an Ikasu TV to put on the wall and, it may only be my one, but it doesn't work very well. Channel 4 has not played for months and it's not at all intuitive to use.

Also, mine said it could be wall mounted but when we got it we ended up having to saw off the stand because the screws were hidden and ones that were visible had no heads. Can you imagine taking a saw to your new TV!!

Its probably cheap because it is unbranded. Dixons are selling one for an extra £30 though you could probably find cheaper.

Personally from working in electrical retail, I'd prefer to buy one from a store i'd be sure I'd have no problem bringing it back to if it broke rather than an unknown company.

thanks guys, might have another look around, dont want to spend too much money cos its for a 7yr old but does need a dvd player as he watches DVDs all the time and it would save having a seperate dvd player along with everything else he has!

is it an xbox360 your son has ?, if so that plays dvd's therefore the TV doesn't have to have a DVD player.
