Foehn & Hirsch 22" LCD HD Ready TV Freeview

3 Years Warranty Glossy Black *Samsung/LG Panel*

my brother just got the 32" version of this from ebuyer. Very nice for the money (£260) am considering one myself

Ebuyers own make, cheapo Chinese stuff. There's comments on HUKD about them that are worth a read.

Ok, it has a 3 year warranty but the components and scaling board will be very cheaply made and probably not produce an overall pleasurable viewing experience. I read on HUKD that one persons 32" of the same make packed up in a week, yes it can happen with anything but going on my own poor experiences with Ebuyer I'd stay clear of this.

Btw, there's an Ebay section for Ebay sales.

most of the reviews on ebuyer are glowing about the F&H line of tv's, a friend of mine is after a cheap tv for her son's xmas prezzie and i pointed her towards one and she's ordering one soon, depending on the quality i might try ad convince the wife that we need a new tv for the bedroom (so i can watch the footy while she's got the bastard soaps on)

for what it's worth, (and I've actually SEEN and USED one of these brand TV's (32"), not just pasting guff) the panel is very sharp with no nasty artifacts or issues. Plenty of inputs and a decent spec for the money. Real life experience. Can't beat it. It displayed a 720p image natively and it did a very good job of downscaling a 1080p source. Speak as I find it's fine.

It aint a panasonic/whatever but you're not paying panasonic money either.

Very true, you get what you pay for.

If you want to watch Coronation Street in native 1920x1080p then your a tit!
Grab one of these, she will be happy, you have not spent over the odds and everyone is happy.

We all can't have the latest Kuro Plasmas, well saying that I have one and for the price you could buy 10 of these!!

Ebuyer doesn't allow poor product reviews

You need to take Ebuyer reviews with a pinch of salt. I've left honest reviews of some products and they don't accept them. The lower rated reviews will hold little to no detail in the hope people skip them, and they make it so it doesn't really effect the full rating anyways.

That being said, this TV probably does have a Samsung panel, but they are all different grades and made in different factories, so the quality will vary greatly compared to actual Samsung TV's due to other factors. It'll be a mish-mash of different components that they've obtained for the cheapest possible - and what usually lets these budget models down is the buggy firmware and speakers.

Personally, I don't think these are very reliable. I have even left a review on eBuyer with regards to these TV, which they have not even bothered to publish.

Ah, so they are STILL up to that trick, despite numerous claims that they have changed!
I suppose someone will now pop out of the woodwork and defend the censorship again, just like they did in the past

No they deleted one of mine for the F&H 19" LCD.

I bought one and it constantly kept switching to standby and had to go back...so I went for a Samsung instead.

Personally I wouldnt touch then again, the pic was OK (when it stayed on) but the build quality was shite IMO.
