Advantages: Dirt cheap, slimline, plays MP3's and CD's. Disadvantages: Not multi-region, remote will not last.
I am no technical wizard; I clung on to my VHS recorder for dear life until videos became virtually non-existent for the most popular films. It was then and only then that I decided to invest in a DVD and even then I looked for the cheapest I could find. Functionality was my only purpose when searching for a player. I cared not whether it could play mp3's, CD's or STD's I just wanted a slimline, unobtrusive player that played a DVD from start to finish. As such finding the Alba DVD45 for a mere £27.99 in my local Asda was a Godsend.
Measuring 36 cm across and 5 cm high this is a surprisingly slimline DVD player. It is quite stylish for the price with a silver shell and black panel front. Setting it up is refreshingly simple and requires plugging the scart lead (supplied) into the back of the DVD player and then into the scart ...

Advantages: Reasonable price, good all rounder Disadvantages: No headphone socket
this model has been reduced in price and I believe you can no longer buy new ones however, to get a compatible model you are looking at around the £60 to £70 mark.
At the time this was a very reasonable price and not including the Internet it was I believe the cheapest 14? TV of this type of specification available.

Just in case you were concerned whether this would fit in a particular gap, especially as this size of TV is aimed at the kitchen/bedroom market it measures 34x38x37.5cm (HxLxD). Therefore it is reasonably compact and is ideally suited for its purpose.
According to the instruction leaflet it weighs 9kg and although I have never measured it myself (even I am not that sad!) it does feel very lightweight and if I had being guessing as to its weight I would have said nearer 5kg.

The ALBA LCDW16HDF, what a surprise!!
As we have a reletively small kitchen and a handy perfect space to house a small LCD TV, I set about looking for one so we could see the news in the morning while the terror is watching Spongebob before school on the big one!
I am known as gadget boy by my mates and will not buy low quality items, especially when it is electronic. Panasonic and Toshiba are my firms of choice and that is where I was looking. Could I find a one, could I hell! Getting hold of a big name small tv is a nightmare, so I started at looking at other makes. This is when I stumbled onto this little beauty on the ARGOS website for £97.
Firstly I read all of the customer reviews and nobody had a bad word to say about it. Firstly it is a very good looking tv with a 16" widescreen framed by gloss black and all very nicely ...
