LG Televisions

NEH

We were going to go for a smaller LG television for a family member but I've checked out a few sites and the smaller LG's don't get good reviews.

Is there another brand that's got a good reputation?

Panasonic then Sharp.

I've got an LG TV that crashes so often I've given up watching TV completely! I guess it's done me a favour, really...

Aren't Samsung quite well respected...?

Thanks, maybe LG aren't as good as they were then...

I think the panels themselves are quite good -- LG and Samsung make them for a lot of other brands, I think.

But I'd avoid LG TVs... I don't know what other people's experience of them is -- maybe we were just unlucky.

I've had one problem with my lg which was fixed in 1 week. And friends have had them with no problems. Personally I love our tv.

Had a 32" CRT LG TV which we recently binned @ 8 years old,still working fine just analog only and TOO big! Also have a 3 year old LG LCD which has given no problems (so far!!)

I have a Panasonic - excellent picture etc - but the "online" experience is sadly lacking. I'd recommend it for normal TV viewing but if you're looking to link it to the internet "Viera Cast" is a bit rubbish (you get netflix and a few other channels, but not IPlayer)

I've recommended LG's as a budget brand (all 32" sets) to 3 people in the past year or so, and they've been quite happy with them. All purchased through Richer Sounds.

See that's the thing checking the reviews the bigger LG Tv's get the good reviews but those under 32" don't....

We've personally had LG but its a bigger one again so I can't speak for the smaller ones....

Thanks for the recommendations for Richer sounds though I will check that out...

Good to know the Panasonic is good, as it wouldn't be used for internet access...

Hmm decisions decisions....
