Advantages: Definately none Disadvantages: No reimbursement
We purchased a Hitachi 28" Pure Flat Screen TV in the January 2003 sales. A bargain reduced from £600 to £389.
Unfortunately by February 2004 we had a problem with it. A grey screen with wavey diagonal lines and it kept turning itself off after about 5 seconds.
Anyway - stupid like we didnt take the extended guarantee - which i would advise everyone to do - if you can afford it obviously.
The TV was taken away by a local engineer and basically needed some extensive welding and it cost us £170 and we were left without the TV for 3 weeks.
Well we werent happy as you can imagine so we tried to contact Hitachi.
We telephoned our local Miller Brothers store who supplied it and they only had a fax number for Hitachi - nothing else !!!
So I searched the web and found a few addresses and forward the original reciept ...

Advantages: Very neat - seemingly a lot of kit for the money Disadvantages: Noisy FM in weak reception areas. Choosy CD player
to throw in a remote control and make it come in at under £50, I?d only be too happy to take one off their hands.
So, after all the nasty things I?ve said about DSG (Dixons, Currys and PC World) in the past, this is where I end up, buying a Hitachi AX-M77 CD Micro System for £49.99. I have to say, that for something costing 50 knicker, I was only expecting to come home with something, shall we say, a bit more ?own brand?, a bit more ?Matsui? let?s say.
The purchase bit was easy ? they were piled five-high at the end of a display cabinet, and not even the Currys assistant in Hounslow would have dared say ??.and would you like an extended warr?..? at these prices, or at least, maybe the sales pep talk they?d just been given (I got there as they opened their doors) had been just too much to take on board all in one go. Maybe it was ...

Advantages: Good tone quality, looks, reliability and functions Disadvantages: no cassette player facility
I wanted a portable CD player for my home-office desk, because I found that playing CDs on my computer whilst I was working seemed to use up memory and sometimes caused my computer to crash. I wanted one with a decent tone, but one that would not take up too much room on my desk. My birthday was coming up (last year), so that answered my wife's question of what to get me for a present. Off we went to Comets.
When we arrived there were many CD players that would have suited me for around the £20 mark, but my wife pointed to the Hitachi CX68 saying how good looking it was with it's round, blue-lit window on the front that indicated radio stations or CD information, depending on what was being played.
I noticed that it also played MP3s, and that I thought, would be great if I wanted to download music from the internet. I've never ...

Manufacturer's product description
Hitachi has just unveiled their new DZ-HS303 digital camcorder, and instead of opting for one storage medium over another, this unit combines a DVD-based recorder with an integrated hard disk drive. This is an industry first among video recorders.
