Toshiba 15DLV505 TV

$262.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.crutchfield.com
the price and the act it came with a build in dvd player was too much too much to pass up.
from www.amazon.com
i love this television it is perfect for use in my kitchen, the picure and sound quality is great, and i love the fact that i can watch a dvd or listen to my favorite cd while preparing dinner.
from www.amazon.com
the time lag when switching channels is tiresome, and there is a great deal of "mechanical" noise when the dvd player is in use, but for the money, it is certainly suitable for a kitchen television.
