GE 13GP241 13" TV
Quit working right after the warranty was up
This television set started showing signs of problems immediately after the warranty period expired.  The most significant problem is that the unit would not power on.  If you were patient, sometimes you could get the thing to turn on.<br />After about 3 weeks of this, the television set decided to never power up again.  I only had the television for a little over a year, and it doesn't work.<br />The commercial skip feature does not actually detect when commercials are over.  It is merely a timer.  You have to guess how long the commercials will last.  The set will return you to the station you were watching after the set duration of time has elapsed.<br />Also, if you're sensitive to high-pitch squealing (picture tube arc), this television set does emit a louder noise than most.  It was quite difficult to fall asleep with this television on because it emitted a louder-than-usual (compared to other television sets) high-pitched squeal.  This is often a sign of a poorly manufactured power supply -- which is probably the reason the set no longer will power on.<br />For a television set, save the hassle, and get a JVC, Toshiba, Sony or some other brand, that will continue functioning after the warranty has expired.
