Philips 27PT6441 27" Stereo TV with QuadraSurf Remote and RealFlat Screen
Sad sad situation
This TV is a disgrace.  An otherwise excellent company has allowed its name and reputation to be tarnished by not recalling this obviously defective model.  We are all waiting for a class action lawsuit if the president of the company or some other higher ups does not acknowledge the problem and seek to offer a fair amelioration.  I bought this model back on 10/19/04 from BJs Wholesale Club.  About four months later the on/off switch was not working.  Since it was past the 90 days labor warranty I bit the bullet and had it repaired at a local TV repair shop for $90.  It was a blown fuse.  That lasted for about another three months. I went and bought a fuse replacement myself this time and attempted to open the back and replace it.  But the fuse keeps blowing everytime I replace it.  So I have a 100-pound monstrousity sitting in my TV room with no hopes of getting it to work.  So it's off to find a comparable TV from Panasonic or Sony that I expect to last 5 to 10 years, just like what I expected with the Philips model. <br /> <br />This is one of the saddest cases of corporate non-action I have ever seen.  It is absolutely terrible behavior.  Something needs to be done. <br />
