Philips AJL700 Under-cabinet LCD TV/DVD Combo
Quality control is absent here: Defective from factory, and replacement also defective.
The features aren't bad on this under-cabinet combo, and it looks fairly attractive. Installation instructions are adequate, with a full-size drilling template provided in multiple languages. But I installed before testing (oops), and then had to send back to the manufacturer for warranty replacement. As soon as the unit was plugged in, it began to beep continuously, as if an alarm clock were going off. The unit does have an integrated kitchen timer, so it seemed that this was stuck on. But nothing would stop the loud beeping. So the manufacturer said to return for replacement, which I did. It took 17 days from their receipt to shipping the replacement (from tracking shipping). Then, I installed the replacement, it seemed to work OK except that the remote would not operate the DVD menus. Most other functions worked on the remote, including Play and Stop, but not the ability to access the DVD menu. Two weeks after installing the replacement, the unit began beeping continuously like the original.<br /><br />Consider another manufacturer's product for better reliability.
