Polaroid FLM-3234B 32-Inch Widescreen 720p LCD HDTV Reviews
This television is the PERFECT size for your bedroom . . . it's not so huge that it looks ridiculous and it's just large enough to enjoy films from your comfy bed!!
Unlike most Polaroid flat-screens, this one has a monochromatic frame: therefore, not only practical, but aesthetically pleasing!! Moreover, there are no buttons what-so-ever on the front of the frame, but there are ones cleverly hidden on the side (just in case your dog steals your remote and you need to change the channel before checking under beds!!) So the presentation is uniform!
The set-up could not have been much easier! (Just in case you are not having the Geek Squad coming to your home!) I had it assembled and was watching "Army of Darkness" in under seven minutes;)
Unless you are using your PS3 on this television for films, I encourage you to pick-up an HD-DVD player (or one with a High Definition Upscaling. . . which also works FANTASTICALLY and is MUCH MORE affordable!). Your old DVD player will not work well with this television unless it has a High Definition Upscaling (just check your DVD manual, you may surprised to find that it does!!) And don't forget the HD cable WHICH IS CRITICAL!! I also strongly encourage you to pick up a surge protector: the Monster Cable MP HTS800 Home Theater PowerCenter HTS800 is incredible! (And it's pretty cheap here at Amazon!!! I had to be convinced into investing in this surge protector, and everything I read indicates my friend was correct! So, I guess this is an area where you don't want to take the cheap way out!) I know this may seem frustrating, disappointing, OR JUST PLAIN EXPENSIVE, but you will not regret it!!
So, while this television is not ideal for your living area (a larger, plasma would be the choice . . . and for very little more!) this is perfect for your bedroom! I would have given it five stars, but the remote control is pretty stripped down . . . and not especially impressive. But hey, that's what Logitech is for, right!!??

Great for the price! - PAdude - PA
I've had this TV for about 2 years and I love it! It displays 1080i content very well and has a sharp picture. It was very easy to setup, albeit a little heavy. All in all, a great LCD TV!
Pros: Sharp Picture, Good Contrast, Lots of inputs (2 Component, 2 HMDI, 1 VGA, 1 S-Video, 2 Composite)
Cons: A little heavy, occasionally has a "shadowing effect"
Score: 5/5, Awesome Deal! =)
nice, when it worked - D. LOPICCOLO - Michigan
I've had the television for 6 months. Great picture, awesome price. It just decided to die on me one day. I decided to email customer service, instead of call. I've been quoted, yes e-mail is in writing, 2-4 weeks for the part and then someone will call me. Amazingly they didn't have any questions about the issue, so my bet is that Poloroid is well aware of a faulty part. It was great while it lasted; hopefully they will resurrect.
