    "I may have been unlucky with Techosonic's quality control, but had no choice but to return the item with the following problems ....
    The overall picture quality was bad.
    Another negative point is the noisy cooling fan, which could be quite disconcerting during silent scenes in movies."

    IMHO I am sure you could take it back if you find it not acceptable. Sort of a home trial.
