Toshiba 20WLT56 Lcd Tv

It arrived! The SWAP T.V. has arrived (2 days later than expected and at an extra cost to me of £11.75) but it looks good, appears quite new and is working perfectly at the moment. If it continues to work then the SWAP system with Toshiba has worked well. They collected my old set (keep your own remote don''t return this) and the new Toshiba HD Ready 20W330 is safely installed, complete with a 3 month guarantee. So if you have a problem with any Toshiba product, even if it is out of warranty give them a ring (prepare for a 20 -30 minute wait before they answer) and with a bit of luck they might offer you a free swap. Thanks Toshiba a great service.

Since writing the review on the unwatchable and apparently unrepairable Toshiba 20WLT 56B I finally contacted Toshiba technical help line to see if they could offer any suggestions. No they couldn''''t, however they have offered to swap my t.v. for the Toshiba 20 W330 free of charge and with a 3 month guarantee. I thought this was an excellent solution and the ''''new'''' set is due to arrive tomorrow via Parceline. This is a free service which they offer to customers who have experienced unusual faults soon after the initial guarantee has expired. Will it arrive tomorrow??? I''''ll let you know. Ken Robinson

I also have the Toshiba 20WLT56, and when it was working it gave a good overall performance in respect of display and functions, with the exception of having to unplug at the mains to switch off. Nice styling, responsive remote and comprehensive manual, this TV was a solid performer allround, unfortunately I did say was. After just over 1 year the screen began to have multicoloured dancing vertical lines and no image, but audio was OK. Yes, this is now in a box having been replaced. I suspect that the LCD tv needs replacing and would be happy to replace it myself, but cannot locate a supplier of LCD. I would have given the model 8 out of 10 had it still been working, but I will not give it any rating, TV''''''''''''''''s used to last 8 years, and I will only look for manufacturers who will reflect their products with the warranty.

I bought the Toshiba LCD 20 WLT 56B about 18 months ago and for the past 7 months it has had a constant fault. The picture will suddenly change into a cascade of colours - mostly green and then if left becomes a negative. Despite 2 engineers and £100 later, the set appears to be unrepairable. The only cure appears to be banging the top of the tv cabinet hard and hoping the picture remains on long enough for me to see the end of the programme. Anybody else with the same problem and managed to solve it?

I have just bought my Toshiba replacement after having a Humax which gave me problems from day one.I also have a Philips lcd but I much prefer the toshiba.I am over 70 and found it no problem to find my way around the various menus.Cant complain about the picture quality or the sound,the only slight thing I find is the stand feels a bit flimsy and the tv slightly leans forward,maybe its the weight doing that,but I intend to mount it on the wall.I would recommend this set.
