The best for gaming tv out there. I seen a lot that could not keep up with games such as halo 3,or COD MW2 but this on has a game mode which helps but not really needed. Also this TV can handle 1080p or 1080i!
What's great about it: Every thing is great on this tv.
What's not so great: Sound is low but not a big deal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this TV about a month ago and was hesitant after seeing about a few negative reviews. I don't know what they are complaining about. Maybe they think they are getting a plasma 1080i TV for a cheaper LCD price. One review claimed this TV didn't have a back button on the remote. Or is it called a flashback button. Yes it does it is just harder to find. The set up took about 5 min. All you had to do was install 4 screws for the stand. The HDMI plug in or other connections are either in the back or on the side. I would prefer a front plug in, but that is just me. The picture quality is good, but not great coming off of the regular cable line. You need a box receiver with HD quality to get a much better picture. Then the picture would be great. I just use this TV as a bedroom none primary TV that I also hook up my PS3 to. The PS3 picture on this TV is great. That is how a HD box would look. I bought a 32 inch TV instead of the 26 inch because I would rather have a bigger TV for the PS3. If you are expecting this unbelievable picture then spend about a thousand bucks more for the same size to get that sort of quality, and you still have to get that HD box. For my purposes this is exactly what I was expecting and fits my needs
What's great about it: Easy to set up, uses little depth space
What's not so great: attracts dust, or at least shows dust
I would recommend this to a friend!

I exchanged a 26 inch Insignia for this bigger TV early January. I looked around at different TVs and it came down to either the 32 Samsung or this Toshiba. At the time my local Best Buy only had the Samsung that was $469 in store. I decided to save the extra $70 bucks and get the Toshiba. I've been using this TV for about a month now and so far I'm satisfied. Xbox live has a bit of a slow response time on this TV but overall it's a great TV for its price in the 32 inch class
What's great about it: Easy to set up, Good Picture
What's not so great: Sound

We owned a Toshiba Projection TV and it went out after 6 years. Average cost per month for the life of the TV is $35.00. When we first purchased that TV it was repaired twice under warranty. I find the overall cost to be unacceptable. Anyway, we decide to purchase a flat screen design. Looking at all the TVs at Best Buy I personally was leaning towards a Sony. My wife on the other hand wanted to stick with the Toshiba brand (she was told by the last salesman they were the only TV still built in the US, which may have been true 6 years ago, but not today). Anyway, we bought the Toshiba and after getting it home and reading the other reviews, we are regretting this purchase. The right speaker is blown, it has allot of distortion. Since we bought an extended warranty we are considering returning this TV or possible calling the repairman. I will not consider another. As far as the technical support, I registered it on-line and this particular model number is not listed 32AV502RZ.
What's great about it: Nothing is "great" it is an average TV
What's not so great: The sound quality, quality control, lack of tech support from Toshiba
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do Not buy this tv. it is a good price but i bought this the day after xmas and i have had nothing but problems.... The video lagged the sound was poor.. Toshiba sent a guy to fix it and he ordered a part and i had to wait 2 weeks then he came back put it in and it still didn't work then they ordered two new parts for it and im still waiting on them. Toshiba will not replace it they are slow and basically do not care about the customer.. the guy i spoke to was very mean to me and told me there could be possible nothing wrong with it.
So take my advice don't but toshiba products they are not good.
What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: picture, sound
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this TV at Best Buy because the price was so good at $349. Now, I am thinking I know why Best Buy could offer such a great deal. This TV is a lemon. I have brought 2 of these home, and both of them out of the box would not work with the remote. The remote itself is working fine (per the tech on the phone) but neither of the TV's were picking up the signal reliably. Seems a very simple part to get right...makes me think the rest of the thing must be cheap, cheap, cheap too. I am going to return this one, and upgrade to something of better quality...not sure what yet. I am bummed... I would not recommend this TV to anyone, I am sorry to say. If this one little issue doesn't even work out of the box, I have grave concerns over Toshiba's quality assurance of products off the assembly line. I have put several sets of brand new batteries in the remote. Checked the remote signal with a digital camera (If you turn on your camera or camera in your phone, and look at the camera screen, point the remote at the camera, and hit some buttons on the remote, you will see the light that it emits. This means that the remote is working)
Can anyone recommend a better TV in the $400 range?
What's great about it: wish I knew
What's not so great: returned 2 of these TVs, both with IR pickup issues in TV
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I got this TV because it was on sale, had got a 32 DYNEX a few weeks earlier that I just loved so figured this would be even better because of the brand name... boy was I wrong. The PS3 audio didn't work, then the firmware was outdated so I updated it, then that made the screen go to snow for regular HDTV... what a mess. My Dynex was plug and play and it's been awesome... this TV is a disaster and it's going back tomorrow and being replaced by another Dynex that I know already works. When it did work, it had a worse HDTV picture than my lower priced Dynex. Audio was weak and it lacks in features. I would not recommend this TV to ANYONE!
What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: audio doesn't play, firmware out of date, have to reset every 3 uses
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is the second Toshiba lcd I have owned. I have had my 42" Regza for over 2 years & have not had any problems. That is the reason I decided to purchase this set. I purchased this set for my bedroom. The size & sound quality are perfect for a smaller room. The picture quality is very good as far as I am concerned.The remote is very easy to use & I like the glow in the dark controls. I also like the inputs ont the side.
I am sure there a better units on the market but I don't think I could get a better TV without spending a lot more money
What's great about it: good price great quality
What's not so great: sound could be better

Loved the TV. I have been using it for a few years now. The only reason I say its almost too small is because now I own the 46" big bother Toshiba Rezga. This line of Toshiba TV's are awesome. Before buying both I spent hours just watching the TV itself and the TV's around it and comparing the overall performance of the TV.
What's great about it: Great Product, Good Price
What's not so great: Almost too small

Easy to set up to use like a pc so definately I'm very happy with my hdtv and I would recommend to anyone.
