Page 1 of ALDI TEVION TBCTV2800 28

Hi,

My local Aldi has 1 of these left and its only £169.99 which seems good for a 28" Widescreen TV. It says it is a flat screen and has 2 Scarts, NTSC playback, On screen display etc. Has anyone on this forum bought one and can tell me if it is a reasonable picture, sound and reasonably flat screen ?

Another quick question which springs to mind. Is this TV made by another company for Tevion in which case can I find any info on the internet about it. So far I couldn`t find any information about this TV anywhere on the Net.

Many thanks,

Mark.

If it`s the one I`m thinking of it`s actually made by Beko, who are a highly reputable Turkish TV (and fridge) manufacturer :)

Well worth £170 of anyone`s money, but don`t expect Toshiba-style presentation :)

Thanks clayts,

Could it be the same as the Beko 28SF T27 TV model at the beko.com website ? It looks very similar to the Aldi Tevion one but the Beko one seems to be 100Hz and has more features.

Who knows ?

Mark.

highly reputable? Not what I`d call their stuff mate <grin>

Oh, and *pray* you don`t have a problem...Beko are one of the worst manufacturers to get a returns authority out of.

Fridges: they aint bad....Tellys, I personally wouldn`t have one if you gave me it free, but yeah, for under £200, the specification is damned good...

(but if Panny want £400+ and Sony want £450+ for the same thing....make your own mind up regarding quality)

Decided to get it and so far not dissapointed. For the price I don`t think you can go wrong. It even came with AV sockets on the side to plug a Video camera into which I didn`t expect at this price. I`m not an expert but the picture quality seems ok to me and with NTSC playback, 2 SCART sockets, Fastext, various widescreen picture and sound modes it packs a lot of features in for the money.

It does look to be a re-badged Beko TV but at a lower "Aldi" price. I hope it keeps going ! My last TV was also a cheap 4:3 screen "Bush" TV but it still lasted 8 years and is still going strong.

Fingers crossed.
