Great picture, sound and connectivity to all my audio devices. It also has been very durable. I have 5... Read full review »

Pros Good picture when player was working.
Cons Worst customer service in history.
Recommended it? No

I sent in a portable DVD player for repair almost a year ago and still fighting with them to get it fixed or sent a new player. This company has to be the worst ever for customer service by far. All you get is I will forward your complaint onto the corporate office that is all we can do. They will... Read full review »

Cons it blows up and they don't care.

My Akai tv blew up 3 times in 7 months and for 2 of those months my tv sat blown up becasue no one wanted to do anything about it! You get a run around and they tell you to call another phone number or give you a different story every time. Akai corporate does not return phone calls. Horrible... Read full review »

Pros Cheap
Cons Does not work for very long.
Recommended it? No

I've had my TV for almost four years and all three projection tubes have leaks in them. These parts to be replaced are just shy of $300 a piece. That would be a total of $600 for you none math people. I think this model should be recalled. I've had tv's I bought in the 80's that are still working... Read full review »

Pros Looks good for the short period it still works
Cons Picture goes in months; they have no service;warrranty is meaningless.
Recommended it? No

Have an AKAI still under warranty. The company assigned my case to a service center 2.5 hours away. When I called the service center they said that, in contrast to what AKAI said, they had no paper work about us and would not service a TV 2.5 hours away. When I called AKAI they said they had to...

Pros Was a great tv with great picture when it was working.
Cons Cannot get it fixed. No one will even look at it. NO SERVICE!!
Recommended it? No

We bought this tv from Sam's club in 2002 and we are now stuck with a 54" TV that does not work sitting in our family room. We cannot get a repair place to even look at it. Even the factory authorized repair shop that AKAI's service center told me to call, would not come look at it. Apparently AKAI... Read full review »
