The Bottom Line:
Ideal for under-cabinet use in a small kitchen. Only negative is concern with reliability.
When the GE 5 inch Spacesaver TV in our kitchen began to show tell-tale signs of expiring we actually looked forward to trading its boxy shape and quirky controls for a set with a drop-down LCD screen and cable access. The first problem is that quality makers just do not seem interested in this market segment. Sony makes one that received high quality and reliability ratings but is very expensive and somewhat oversized. A second, is that there seems to be a trend to incorporate unwanted extras such as a CD/DVD player - We just want to watch the news while cooking. Audiovox, Phillips, GPX, Polaroid & the Target house brand had some good choices but universally drew critical reviews from users because of reliability issues. This concern with reliability was an additional reason for looking for a set with the fewest bells & whistles.
A really annoying problem was finding dimensions for many of the sets - not even on some makers web sites. Finally decided to take a chance with the Audiovox VE 705 because it looked as if it would fit under a 12 inch deep cabinet and was available at under $ 100 via Amazon.
After a couple of weeks of use we are happy with it. Clean design, minimal height. Picture & sound are adequate - about what we expected. FM reception is surprisingly good with included dipole we ran up to the top of the cabinet. Installation was a breeze. TV controls work fine. Only worry is, of course, reliability. Wish us luck.
