I purchased this tv from Walmart for about $59.00 cheaper (plus tax). Picture is awesome. I purchased it for my bedroom. It basically has none of the extra bells and whistles, just 2 HDMI plugs on the back. The sound is also very basic (it sounds kind of like the sound coming out of a good clock radio) but if you want to upgrade the sound, that's what all of the jacks in the back are for. Like I said, it is just for my bedroom and for that, the sound is fine. If you are just looking for a basic tv for your bedroom with an excellent vibrant picture at a very good price, this is the one for you. We love it!

In the price range it is an excellent TV in all respects.Already we have the same Toshiba TV we have in our home.Only one flaw I found that the option of the "Color sream HD" was missing in this TV !I found out the modelNo.was 40FT2U1 and not 40FT2U.Such trick has been played by the supplier to keep buyer ignorant of that fact.Perhapes Amazon themselves may not be knowing and they must know this.
However for my purposwe the TV and its low price were good enough. Toshiba 40FT2U 40-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV

Really needed a new TV and purchased from Best Buy 40FT2U. The power board failed after two months. It is well known to customer support agents but they dont tell you that on the phone. They give you a ref# and tell you it will be about a week. After a week I called to follow up on part and they referred me to the 3rd party repair company nexcor whom advised me that these Toshiba HDTVs have a defective power board with an extremely high failure rate. They said that after getting many power boards in they realized that this is not the problem because the power boards are not working and that its actually the main board. Which now due to the long back order for this Toshiba HDTV component speaks for itself--high demand or they don't know to make a good one. They give you another reference number and tell you that this is all they can do for you. THEY DO NOT CARE! Please do not buy anything from Toshiba, I promise you they have the worst customer service I have ever experienced... Read more
