User Submitted Toshiba 52HM84 52-Inch HDTV-Ready Projection DLP TV Reviews Date: 2010-07-20 52HM84 - Purchased 3/05 - 3 Lamps now / Bought the unit at Best Buy. Paid $2099. This is more then my first car cost. My first car ran longer. I have had 2 lamps replaced under the Best buy service plan. Now I need to replace it on my own. No big deal - it's only 2 screws. The issue is that you have to order the darn thing. You have to make sure you order a ORSON brand bulb or you will only get 1/2 the life out of it. The lowest cost I can find is $133.00. The TV is 5 years old. - The cost is low for the fix but it's a pain in the rear. Date: 2010-02-11 unreliable 52HM84 I have had my 52" for 4 years and am on my 3 bulb @ $250/ea, not to mention the $368 to have a ballast replaced. Our salesman conveniently left out the problems with a DLP. We should have opted for the LCD and I will not be buying another unreliable Toshiba. Date: 2009-12-21 Avoid Toshiba DLP This is an annoying and expensive choice for any family and it should be avoided. You need to plan to buy a new lamp, which will cost you about $218.00, every year. That doesn't include any fees for service calls too. A TV that will fail at any moment and require a new lamp is a terrible thing. Calling Toshiba service is a nightmare too. Date: 2009-11-18 steer clear of hdlp Toshiba tv's!!! Whatever you do - steer clear of Toshiba HDLP tv's!! We have had ours for four years and are on our 4th lamp replacement. I suggest doing an internet search before you buy, because we are not alone!! There have been serious problems with the HDLP lamps from Toshiba. Nothing more frustrating than to be watching your favorite show or ball game and have the lamp burn out and be without your TV until you get a replacement!!! Date: 2009-07-19 Great Picture but too many issues..... TV is overpriced for all the issues.. Ive replaced the bulb in the last 4 months, speaker just stopped working and now the darn thing wont turn on again! I am not about to buy another bulb!!! Come on these manufacturers need to step up their products if they are gonna charge these prices for Tvs!! I would not buy again.. * Price is subject to change. |
