Can some kind person please advise if this T.V is any good.
I can get triple clubcard points and quidco etc on it but I am not sure if the technical side of it is ok for the money. Not bothered about brand name , just want to make sure that worth the money or if a LCD tv is something you have to spend much more on .

I've never seen the tv but the spec looks ok for the price, ok the contrast ratio isn't great but what will you be using it for, just normal SD broadcasts or SKY HD, PS3, XBOX etc ?

At this price I would say it's a pretty decent spec if you don't care about brand names and looks.

Here's an example of a great name but lower resolution for around the same price:

Me, I go for branded products, but hey thats just me, googled the set for you and several forums said it was fine, ok, good for the bedroom, contrast could be better, good for the money. Your call.

Just in case anyone is interested in this T.V. I received it this morning and the Contrast Ratio is actually 1:1500, it is 1080p and has built in freeview. Not described correctly on website x
