I have owned this TV\DVD player for over 6 months now, and I simply love it. I use it in my master bedroom and the size is just perfect, I use for my tv use, not so much for the DVD use for I enjoy the sound coming from my home theather system that is hooked up with my Toshiba A-30 HD DVD player. But for the price, appeareance, and overall quality...you cannot go wrong. ross glen ellen, ca

great DVD picture, I also like the blacks and the contrast is good. minor con in my eyes is that when you switch channels it takes about .5 seconds for a picture to pop up. otherwise - smooth sailing.

The picture on this unit is very dark. I attempted to calibrate the brightness/contrast/color/tint using the Avia NTSC calibration. Even when calibrated (brightness up around 42), the unit has serious issues with the color red. Darker/shadows look red and blurry.
DVD playback was similarly flawed. Poor red coloring. The unit also did not seem to properly detect widescreen DVDs and use the appropriate display resolution. Instead, you need to cycles through the 'TheatreWide' pic size settings trying to get the unit to display properly. Movies, despite the resolution, appeared to have jagged lines. Some type of poor scaling is going on even when in the modes that should be displaying without stretching or scaling.
This unit will be going back. Thre is also a 20HLV86 model but the Toshiba website has the same info for both unit. I cannot figure out what the difference is.
The VESA mouting holes were nice and the audio is fine. The picture quality, especially with DVD playback, is unacceptable.
The remote is poorly laid out.
