Good value for the money.

So I’m giving this 5 stars because it’s what I expected. For the money it’s a great value, many other options were over twice the price with many of the same sound issue; not good quality and difficulty hearing the movie dialog. Which I couldn’t agree more. I took a small portion of the money saved and got a small sound bar. Using fiber optic connection and I have great sound. Picture is plenty good for the RV. Simple install and hookup. Super light tv and should travel well.Ver más

So far so good for this old timer.

I haven't finished installation -- literally just received it. If you accidentally press to reset to factory settings as I did, just put in 4 zeros as the Code it asks for or it stays in lock out and wont let you get to the scan channels step without filling in a code there. When connecting your booster antenna remember to plug the hdmi thing on the side and the circular antenna underneath. That was all easy peasy. I haven't put my amazon fire stick on it yet, but suspect I'll need an extender cord since it's underneath the tv and not on the side like my old tv.I have a question about changing channels without going back to channel 2 and also what specific soundbar people recommend. Wondering if I could plug in some old computer speakers into it. I feel so good about not having a smart tv in my bedroom. I did plug it into one of those on/off plugs because I don't like the red light that glows when it's turned off since it holds just a little power in the circuit. Here's the link (I use these for a lot of things I want off and I light the light on the outside reminds me) : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QKPBZX1/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1AMUYYA3CT6HJ&th=1So far all channels scanned and work fine but I haven't finished testing out the DVD player or the firestick and will update with any shortcuts I learn. I wrote this because I hate installing new things like this and manuals don't really help with some of the simpliest of things.Update: A friend picked up a soundbar on sale - makes an incredible difference and worth it. The original sound was noticably low quality, but with the soundbar -- wow awesome upgrade to the tv overall. Simply plugged in the aux into the the side.DVD was so easy and the picture quality is excellent. Just change the input which is the source button (just below the mute button). The eject is the Return button (it's the upper right little angled button above the big OK circle).One mistake I was making was hitting that USB button instead of the on/off button in the dark. I was so annoyed thinking I had to constantly rescan channels because I always turn it completely off as stated above. Now I've stopped accidentally pressing that big AUX button on the top right thinking it was the on off switch in the dark. Not sure what fixed my problem, but I think that was it. Avoid that AUX button like the plague. It must be important for something, but nothing that I've needed to be in such a prominent position. Silly me.Haven't tried the firestick on it yet, but if I encounter a problem when I do plug it in. I'll post it.Ver más

Remote Control very intermittent/unreliable to TV

Update: I just bought a dedicated computer monitor that cost a lot less than this piece of junk, dropped from two ★ rating to ZERO STARS. I needed to rearrange my desk so I went to disconnect the VGA cable, while listening the thumbscrews the TV screen on the entire left side in front of the VGA just cracked and showed vertical black lines down the screen, just by loosening a connector! Are you kidding me? No, not kidding so took off the connector rearranged and just inserted the VGA connector, turned on the TV with a remote that never wanted to properly interface with the dang TV, and now I had thousands of black vertical bars across the entire screen with small sections of working display areas.I got so p.o.rd I just disconnect the entire TV from everything and slammed it screen down on the floor.I will never, ABSOLUTELY NEVER buy anything Westinghouse product no matter what it is! Worst pile of crap I have ever owned. Wish I never wasted my money on this junk heap.======== End of Update ========TV and Remote don't get along very well. I just opened this new out of box, but I had purchased it a long while back, so it's return date is long gone. But the TV works, just that for some very odd and peculiar reason you just can't point the remote at the TV and have it work properly.If I want to change the Source to my computer VGA from TV, or go from TV to the built in DVD or back to my computer VGA, I can point the remote at TV, but I have to point at different places BEFORE the TV will respond to the remote. Then I have to find the next spot where the remote will change a channel or change the volume level. When selecting a channel to view can get quite perplexing because before you can get all numbers in, you have to repoint the remote to a different area of the TV for each number pressed, so changing channels gets quite frustrating.Running the DVD has its issues with this too. Even pausing, fast forward, etc. you have to move the remote around the TV before it recognizes the command you want.So there is definitely some kind of flaw in the way the remote sees the TV or the TV sees the remote.This is why I only gave it two stars, there is no off/on or manual controls, only the remote is the only control. Not fond of a TV that has no manual options to control it.And it doesn't come with the ability to connect to the Internet for extended channels via WiFi like my other TV does, so can't watch many of the extended channels I enjoy.If I just leave it on the VGA computer monitor setting it works fairly well, but for being a larger TV and Computer Monitor, the resolution actually sucks, I'm used to 1920x1080 HD, but this TV doesn't go above the old 1024x780 mode, which by today's standard is total garbage. I had expected better resolution than this. So I wasn't happy with that either.But since my old monitor broke and fell apart after many years of use, I had hope this TV would have been a suitable replacement for it, sadly it wasn't and isn't.So all in all, I'd give this TV a very poor rating at best. The sound quality is okay, but volume levels can be quite low. And if you're watching a DVD and want to pause it to check something on TV like the news, if you go to any other source, all you get is a blank screen, you can't have a DVD even inserted in the built in drive, them change over to watch TV for a few minutes or go to VGA computer monitor mode to do something on your computer, not even for a couple of minutes, the TV screen just stays black and is just a void. That's not how I would have expected the TV to work, my other TV doesn't do this. Just this one does. Not impressed at all.Like stated, for use as a computer monitor or perhaps a game console, but TV watching or DVD use, not very great.No I definitely would not recommend this pile of junk.

Serviceable, Poor Sound

I read the reviews and the concerns about sound are accurate. I am not looking for amazing picture or sound quality, just a convenient way to play DVD's out here in the badlands of the Southwestern USA, so I'm quite satisfied with the sound and picture as they are "Good Enough" for my needs. This Combination of TV/DVD Player was very easy to set up and it is easy to play my DVD's in. The remote is also intuitive to use the way a banana is. The sound is a bit crappy (not garbled, just not very "sharp" sound if that helps any) and the picture is not ideal (again, not like your favorite show is suddenly an impressionist painting, but not super sharp), but I don't care ~ in fact, it looks and sounds like a 1990's TV and that is just fine for rewatching Buffy or some swank retro pastiche masterpiece like Stranger Things. I was looking more for the convenience, simplicity of use and small footprint of an all-in-one device (it fits in my bookcase!). One may be able to obtain better picture (perhaps while watching a streaming show?) or sound (by installing external speakers?), but I'm not bothered enough by the sound and picture to do so, in fact, the somewhat crappy quality of sound and picture is rather nostalgic for anyone who grew up in a doublewide and had tin foil rabbit ears on their 1975 24" 200 pound faux wood encased Zenith. For the price, I am happy (even your Grandma could set it up and it weighs less than her Chihuahua!). It came very promptly (about 2 cups of tea after I ordered it, if I remember correctly) and was packaged extremely well (I'm sure if it had been delivered via telekinesis, Drone or Pterodactyl, it would have survived a hard landing on hot magma). The only complaint I would have regarding packaging is that it was polystyrene ("Styrofoam" ) where I would very much prefer something biodegradable like cardboard or maybe oatmeal raisin cookies though, that could get messy in our New Mexico heat. If you don't expect too much, you will not be disappointed. Come to think of it, that Zen perspective on this device is not a bad way to look at just about anything. Thank You Gentle Readers, for making it this far in the Review ~ now if you'll excuse me I've got stakes to sharpen, socks to darn and reruns of X-Files to watch (even though they still suck but are required viewing for all New Mexicans according to State Law). ~B

Westinghouse TV with built in DVD Player

Works great! Sharp picture. Now I’ve got my Nintendo Switch 2 connected to it, with ease-also purchased thru Amazon! Good times! 🎯😁

8 out of 10 ain't bad

I ordered 10 of these and 2 of them were TV's only with NO DVD BUILT IN but in the DVD box, no worries, still able to use them, just wanted you to know just in case somebody actually needs one that is built in, definitely a factory defect not a dealer issue.
