WORST PURCHASE I EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-09-29
Don't ever purchase a Polaroid television. They are all riddled with fundamental problems and are built very cheaply from the ground up. The initial cost savings won't even begin to cover all the frustrating time you'll spend later when there's a problem. Polaroid isn't concerned with producing products that work the way they should or with customer service when the defects they know about kill your very expensive new television, they just want your money and then for you to go away.
IF YOU PURCHASE A TELEVISION FROM POLAROID I PROMISE YOU THAT YOU'LL REGRET IT.
Great Item.......2006-11-06
This TV(and all other Polaroid TV's that I have) perfroms great. I used to buy Toshiba only and pay twice as much. I have had no problems or complaints about this TV after using it for a few months.
Polaroid plasma .......2006-08-01
I just got it up and working, what a great picture, I have been looking at Plasma's for a while and this one looks better than many I have looked at, at close to twice the price. I might buy another one for my bed room. A plus

Love this TV.......2007-12-21
This is was a great purchase for our family. I was hesitant to move to the LCD Tv's mostly because of the price. I received a great deal and am so happy that I made the leap. What a difference in the quailty of the screen. My daughter has commented on the number of times I have said "Don't you just love this TV?". I would suggest based on this models reviews that you purchase the extended warranty. Actually with any electronic purchase that is really the way to go. Anyway we love this TV and would highly recommend it to anyone!
Wonderful Television.......2007-11-28
I bought this television Black Friday and have been absolutely thrilled w/ it. The only thing that upset me w/ this tv is getting it out of the back of the car. The picture is ok on standard definition television, but then again it is built for hi def quality. I also purchased an HDMI cable for the use of my Xbox 360 and would say that this picture is as bright and sharp as any other tv I have seen. I was considering two other brands; Sharp Aquous and Samsung. I found both to be much more expensive for about the same picture qaulity. The stand is sturdy and the settings for adjustment are easy. Polaroid may have been a little shy on settings, but then again who wants to spend 45 minutes looking for the brightness controls. I have many comments on the use of my 360. Such as is that a real football game? Movies look wonderful and the blocking that you get in the screen w/ other brands is non-existent in this model. I have yet to have a problem w/ anything. I may be speaking to soon, but I would pick this television up if you are in the market for a good, inexpensive qaulity television.

Amazon.com Product Description
At less than 4 inches deep, Polaroid's PLA-4260 gas-plasma television fits easily just about anywhere--office, living room, home theater, or bedroom. The 42-inch widescreen TV offers 1,024 x 768 native pixel resolution, a 3,000:1 contrast ratio, and 1,000 cd/m2 (maximum) brightness produce clear, bright images from a DTV set-top box receiver's high-definition television (HDTV) programs, DVD movies, or digital photos from your computer. And, the set's convenient NTSC tuner brings standard-definition broadcast TV into your home or boardroom.
With a plasma screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (160 degrees in this case, wider than viewing angles of many LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim profile--the PLA-4260 is a mere 3.6 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting (desktop stand included). Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed near lighting or sound systems. You do, however, need to be wary of image burn-in (wherein long-held stationary images leave a permanent impression in the screen)--especially critical to keep in mind if you'll be using the set for PC work and viewing.
The set's 3D Y/C digital comb filter enhances NTSC (standard-definition) sources by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt). Picture-in-picture capabilities, with image swap, make it easy to view images from 2 inputs simultaneously.
To save space and minimize cable clutter, all audio/video inputs and outputs are connected via a separate, stand-alone media center/set-top box, which links to the TV with 2 proprietary multi-pin cables (supplied).
The media center's 11 inputs include 3 each composite-video and S-video, 1 analog RGB (15-pin D-Sub, for your PC), a direct-digital DVI-HDTV with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), 2 component-video inputs (1 HD, 1 SD), an RF coaxial/antenna input, and an RS-232C control interface (RS-232 cable not included).
If you don't have a surround receiver or 6-channel speaker setup for use with your DTV receiver or DVD player, you can still make every movie night the ultimate movie experience: onboard SRS TruSurround XT simulates surround sound through the set's 2 speakers. A dedicated monaural RCA subwoofer output facilitates hookup with a stand-alone powered speaker designed to extend the low-frequency response of your listening system.
What's in the Box
TV, detachable stand, remote control, remote batteries, AV switching box with hookup cables (PLA-4260STB), 2 AC power cords, a user's manual, and warranty information.

Polaroid Plasma Monitor Superb.......2005-10-10
We have had this for almost 6 months now, bought it after we bought a 26 inch polaroid tv for the bedroom. Note: we got the 42 inch Polaroid MONITOR which needs a cable box, it is not a ready to plug in tv. We needed the cable box anyway for HD transmission where we are. I have to tell you we love it. My husband is now hooked on HD and the Polaroid was a superb value. Granted, we got it at Circuit City for under 1700.00!!!!! I don't know how we lived without it!
