8" Under Cabinet LCD TV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought a flip down Venturer brand TV. It seemed great at first, but after using it for eight months, the TV screen no longer works. We called to inquire and were told there was only a 90 day warranty.

Memorex MVUC821 Under-Cabinet 8-Inch Widescreen LCD TV/DVD with ATSC Digital Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you are smart enough to read these reviews before buying (you'll see the rest of us were not...lol) then here is the low-down...
Pros: Relatively easy to install, good space utilization, good functionality (probably too much for this application), decent picture quality and sound
Cons: Will not process cable tv signal, strange signal delay when using the remote, magnetic remote isn't strong enough to stay on the fridge
THIS UNIT WILL ONLY PROCESS BROADCAST HDTV SIGNALS. It will NOT process a cable tv signal so don't even bother trying.
Summary: I bought the unit and started to install it. But the included "spacers" and mounting bolts were not sufficient to clear the underside lip of my kitchen cabinets. So after cobbling together some 1x2 rails, I finally had everything in place.
If you have average depth cabinets, there's not much space between the back of the unit and the wall. You'll want a $5 right-angle (90-deg) coax adapter to make hooking up the coax cable easier.
Once installed, and power on, we put in a DVD - all was well - and played the radio - all was well. Then came installing the cable. I ran a new cable from the middle of my attic to the kitchen - drilling several holes in walls to get there. It took about 2 hours. When I hooked up the cable, I got the dreaded "No Signal" message. Hmmm - okay, probably my DIY cable ends. I replaced both coax ends, and switched the cables around on the splitter. "No Signal." I completely removed the unit and hooked it directly up to the cable from my main TV which I knew worked. "No Signal." So I guess the unit is bad - which is really bad becuase we already threw away all the packing and can't find the reciept!
So I get online. Low and behold, EVERYONE who bought this unit has the same problem: This stupid thing doesn't process a cable TV signal.
Well I can't take it back so i'm determined to get something out of it. I run down to RS and buy a small, amplified HDTV antenna. I install it high in the attic and hook everything back up. The TV works fine. So now I have one TV with broadcast HDTV, which is probably a good thing in case our cable goes out and we need to know what's going on.
Apart from all that, my only complaint (so far) is the 1-2 second delay between pushing a button on the remote and anything happening on the unit. Irritating yes, but not a deal killer in itself.
So if you don't have cable (or don't mind not using cable if you do have it) and want HDTV in your kitchen, this unit my suit your needs.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this unit and had it for over a week now.
I really enjoy it very much, it has all the features I wanted.
The speakers are excellent quality and great sound. The TV has a great picture, and the controls are easy to understand and operate. It has a very nice appearance, does not look cheap, the color blends well with the kitchen cabinets. I am very pleased with this unit, can't say anything bad, meets my expectations.

Venturer KLV3915 15.4-Inch Undercabinet Kitchen LCD TV/DVD Combo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I did my homework on these units. There are not many of these under counter all in one tvs left. So my score is in comparison to what is out there.
Pros
*Big screen - this is a nice feature as most units have much smaller screens
*Plays DVDs - I have no problems with this feature
*Has good reception - All my channels come in fairly good (Cable TV/FM/AM)
*Cheapest of all units with this screen size.
*Magnetic remote for the fridge. I have heard people complain about this feature because it is not strong enough to hold the remote up. I am guessing that is because they have a stainless steel fridge which has less magnetic for the most part in comparison to a standard metal finish.
Cons
*Picture quality is not so great. I think this is because of the slow response time of the screen. I also noticed that the picture was much better when a HD signal was present.
*Selecting presets is difficult. This is by far the biggest issue for me. It is not easy to select your favorite channels. I have also noticed that selecting presets is done differently between the tv and the radio.
*When the timer is on I have not figured out a way to see it count down. So until it goes off you have no idea how much time is left.
*Remote does not make it across the room. I tested it and it goes about 10 feet. In reality how much farther will you view a 15 inch screen from?
*You really need the remote to use this unit. I am sure there is a way to use the buttons on the unit but the remote is much easier. I Wish they would have done preselects on the unit.
Summary
Not a bad unit, but if picture is important to you then this is not the unit for you. I am not sure the other units are any better in fact most of these units look to come from the same design. I assume they have updated the screen for vendors like RCA but not sure.IF you are looking for a simple inexpensive unit that has a big screen then it is not a bad option. I have had the unit for 2 months and no problems yet. We watch the news every day while making dinner.

Eviant T7UC Under Cabinet 7-Inch Television, Silver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm keeping this unit only because it fits the space that I wanted it in very well - I'm not at all happy with the performance of it.
I purchased this TV to mount on a very large desk that I have. The mounting is pretty straight-forward (they supply a cardboard drilling template and a few different spacer options). One thing to keep in mind on the mounting - make sure to allow for extra space for the speakers when drilling your mounting holes (the template does not have this space added).
Electronically, this is just a very average to below-average unit. I'm using cable as my video source. The TV that was in this location previously had an excellent picture. This unit has a snowy picture, and very poor color balance (I have tried adjusting it many times - it never does get a "good" picture).
The sound is awful. You have to create a balance between two different volume sources - one on the front of the main unit, the other on the TV itself (controlled by buttons on the TV, or by the remote). Between the two, if you turn it up to the point of what I would consider normal volume, you hear a faint but noticeable high-pitched whine (my Jack Russell Terrier hears it too...). The quality of the sound is pretty bad too - very thin and tinny. They should have added an Audio Out Jack, so that you could hook up a decent set of amplified speakers to it.
The Power button on the front of the unit is a cheap, spring-loaded design; I can tell that it will create problems in the long run (it has already stuck a few times).
The clock displays is a bit annoying also - most digital displays will display the single-digit time without a zero in front nowadays - 3:00, for example. This clock displays it as 03:00.
The remote must use very unique frequencies - I was not able to program my regular Tivo remote to it (not even when cycling through the hundreds of preset codes that the Tivo remote has). I then purchased a "learning" Tivo remote - even that remote wouldn't accept the "power" or "volume down" functions ("volume up" was the only button that would accept the programming).

GPX KCLD8887DT Under Cabinet TV/DVD Combo with Cable Ready 8.4 -Inch LCD Digital TV, DVD Player rand AM/FM Stereo Radio (Silver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought one just like this one only without dvd player for xmas for my husband last year 2006. Paid under $150. It was an impulse buy. I didn't research it first, or look elsewhere for one. It was the one and only one I saw at the time. Don't waste your money. It is the biggest piece of junk (didn't last six months) before it started falling apart.The power (on off) button came apart first and is inside the case of the tv so you can only turn it on and off with remote and sometimes that doesn't work either. Sometimes it will power on but just have a black screen but the radio will work if you want to listen to it. Picture (when you have one) is so-so I'd rate it a 2. Sound I'd rate a 2 but I wouldn't rate the rest of it a 1. Other people have had similar problems and left reviews so its not just a one time problem. I won't buy this brand or from this company again.
