Stay Away From Toshiba DLP Projection Television!!

Feb 28 2012 - Bulb just blew again, I lost count. I think it's time for a new TV. TOSHIBA SHOULD BE ASHAMED! Read these reviews on Toshiba's own website. http://us.toshiba.com/accessory/75008204
This is about toshiba high definition DLP Projection Televisions. This tv "65HM167" is less then 2 years old and is on its 4th lamp. This product is a piece of Garbage and Toshiba customer service could not care less. Toshiba has already lost a class action lawsuit this year about DLP TV lamps, it looks like another should be on the way.

I'm sorry it happened to you as well.

Does anybody think Toshiba cares about what we think or feel.

Don't buy anything Toshiba.

Hey Mikewm9v

The reason for the video is to let people know about this particular Toshiba product. For what it's worth to you, the tv was purchased at circuit city which went out of business probably for selling too many toshiba products. And I like my 20 year old aquarium

Hi gang

Just a quick update about my 65 inch paper weight.

I have good news! The eight lamp purchased is now going strong for 3 months now.

The bad news is that I keep telling my family to shut the TV off to save the lamp...Gotta love Toshiba technology and their customer service. That's OK tho, I still have my trusty 23 year old Sony.

I'm glad to hear to you're having good luck with this TV.

It's Nov 15 and I'm still waiting for a lamp. This product is a piece of CRAP!

We have replaced our bulb 2 or 3 times..... it sucks... I am so sorry this happened to you.

The lamps are over $200

We have a Toshiba 56HM195 and it has taken 2 lamps and one color wheel to make it four years. We spent 2k for the TV and about another 1k keeping it working. This is the worst product I have ever purchased. Color wheel is out again and I have plugged in my 8 yr old Magnavox that works as good as it did new as well. But no HD.

Agree WHOLE HEARTEDLY! Toshiba is a POS TV! I have one of the original 46" that was included on the lawsuit. Nobody contacted me and they were not going to send me replacement bulbs or refund the money I already shelled out in bulbs. TOSHIBA =GARBAGE!

[angelalynn82]

How much does the lamp cost?

[sipapito]

I was thinking in getting a toshiba but your video made me not to buy a Toshiba!!!but I heard they keep making all this junk expensive tv's they say as I said they all break down in less than 3 yrs or so.just do look it up on google customer complaints.

Hi, my tv keeps turning itself off , just wondering whether anyone out there knows why this keeps on happening? it keeps on going to a standby mode, but the only way i can get it to switch back on is to turn off at mains , then it will stay on for literally a couple of minutes & then turn itself off again.. HELP! :( x

I can understand your frustrations..but I've owned a toshiba 65 DLP for a little over 6 yrs now and have only had to change the lamp once. They are a bit pricey but this tv has a great picture! Hopefully they'll keep getting cheaper since dlp is a dead technology.

Can understand being totally peeved off with these TVs. Got ours at Best Buy and when the lamp went out after 1 year, was advised by the salesperson that BB does not carry the replacement lamps, you have to go to the manufacturer. What??? At approx. $200 a pop, somebody's getting rich quick! The set did have a great price when we bought it, and it does have a good picture...but....ours is now about 4 and a half years old and the lamp has been replaced four times. Yeah, RUN don't WALK!
