Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

OK

Can anyone tell me the reason the picture is so dark. Has something blown or what? I have left it running quite a while to see if it needed to warm up but it does not do anything. By closing up the curtains it makes it a tiny bit better to watch but i...

Was given to us from a friend.

The screen is way too dark.

Terrible

What a load of junk. Cost over $5,500 in 2003. Will now assign it to the local tip and purchase a plasma model from a reputable manufacturer. Does anybody have a contact number to complain to LG? Will never purchase anything made by LG in the future...

Great picture quality when TV working. Also PIP.

Many times repeated fact in these reviews that the TV will not switch on. Indicator light flashes orange and then goes to red. Seems worse when the ambient temperature is high. Has been to repairer under extended warranty four times (difficult as...

Good

I can't really complain about it. Touch wood it has served me well with NO bulb replacement in the 5 years i've had it -mind u i bet ya as soon as i finish writing this, it'll blow... :P

Asthetics. Looks nice and a good TV for it's time (think it's about 5 yrs old now)

Once in a blue moon it might not turn on straight away. I just turn it off and turn it back on again.

Terrible

Wouldnt waste my time and money on such a piece of rubbish. Luckily I received a total refund, as I only had it about 24hrs.

Had it on for a total of 2 hours, and in that time it turned itself off 3 times. No volume on certain channels.

Bad

we inheritted the TV with our home, so in that sense it hasn't really cost us much, but we are reluctant to repair it a second time as we don't know how long it will be until we have to put our hands in our pocket again...

the size is great -

has cost us $250 just to replace a lamp and now, 6 months later, the picture has gone, it turns itself off and sound comes and goes.

Excellent

A good TV for its time.It has been reliable and not cost a cent other than the purchase price. If I could change anything it would to put an antiglare filter on the screen.

My set 5 years old today with original lamp that has done 8876 hours and never been touched. Still has a great bright picture.

Terrible

This has been the worst $4000 I have ever spent on the most unreliable TV I have ever seen. I would never buy another LG. With the cost of repairs to this TV, I could have bought two others at current prices. It is worth nothing to sell and will make...

Nothing other than its looks. Picture is fairly good when it works.

Have had nothing but problems with it when 12 month warranty ran out. TV turned itself off, wouldn't respond to remote, sound can be intermittent, generally unreliable to watch.
