These are probably junk, TVs are still a product where you generally get what you pay for. Very few companies, maybe less than 5, are actually making the panels.

I reckon Aldi & Lidl tvs displayed 'faded' colour - bought a tv from them 4yrs ago &exchanged it - unless the quality has inproved.

From experience over the yrs it would take some convincing me to buy anything electrical from them, save cheap diy tools. I just ended up bring them all back - an £800 computer is another example where many stated functions did not operate.

Was looking at this as well! Would I be correct in assuming it is only wall mounted (ie there is no stand?)

Sorry Vic, in my experience the 3 year warranty is bull$hit. We had an item that failed within warranty and it had been very little used and definitely not damaged and they would not fix it as they said it was damaged which it hadnt. So when I see people quoting their 3 year warranty I laugh.

3 year warranty is grand if its good first day. Warranty cant fix poor quality picture.

You definitely get what you pay for in a TV, just take a look in currys with all tvs on display and cheap jvc etc aren't a patch on Samsung's

Under warranty for 3 years. If it wasn't damaged by you then small claims court for €25. Ime there has never been an issue with them or lidl on the warranty

The warranty is useless if the TV is crap, as I suspect it would be for €300 from an unknown brand. Type Bauhn into google and the second link is to a product review site where the average rating is 1.9/5 from 27 reviews.

Tesco UK/Argos UK do have some good deals on TVs on their ebay pages. You can get a proper brand delivered through Parcel Motel/Parcel Wizard for a similar price to this.
