Sony ICF-CD555TV 7 in. Portable TV

This product is a must have for any kitchen. It is great to have a tv in the kitchen when you spend as much time as I do in one. Due to limited countertop space this is probably one of my smartest buys as far as being practicle. Sure I could have mounted a 42 inch plasma above my stove but for about 3,500.00 less I put a 7 inch lcd tv under my cupboard not to mention it is a cd/radio also. A 7 inch lcd screen just made a little more sense to me. Hey my kitchen is so small the screen is totally proportionate. I now have a good down payment for that Buick Grand National I have been looking at. Only down fall is I wish it was a DVD player as well, but you can't have them all. At least it has the hook ups that you can connect your little portable DVD player to.

I would recomend this product. That is why I wish I had 2 kitchens so I could justify buying a second one!

This wonderful unit has helped me keep my kitchen cleaner, and I cook more, and every housewife should have one..Eileen Whittemore 64 years of age. Married 46 years to a wonderful husband who purchased this for me..

Excellent television. I purchased this TV after reviewing different undercounter responses of people that had purchased these types of TV's. The picture clarity is excellent, the sound is also excellent for the CD player and radio. I feel I made a very good choice of brand and quality. The only thing if I had a choice (bearing in mind it still doesn't affect my feelings on my purchase) was a preference of black as a color to match the appliances in my kitchen. It does not seem these come in any other color than silver. But overall a great tv.

It's exacly what I needed. I had to mount it under a corner cabinet because of the depth. Picture is clear as is everyother Sony TV.

After obtaining 1 new and another used they seem to have the same problem.
The only way I knew something was OFF, as I had not yet removed the 13" TV from the kitchen.
Comparing picture to picture I found that the image on the ICFs screen was not quite presenting all the material.
About 1/8" of the image at the very top and bottom of the screen was 'off the screen'.
If there was, say a news banner, it was not viewable.
Needless to say if there was a station id logo, you couldn't see it.
School closings ticker, forget it.
I sent the new one (under warranty) off to Sony and it came back the same.
My inquiry to them was answered "there was nothing wrong with it".
1/8" on a 13" screen is o.k. BUT on a 7" screen, you miss alot.
Don't try finding the answer in the Sony Service Manual----it's not there, in fact, the manual has some misinformation regarding procedures to put the unit into Test Mode for adjustment. The printed procedure does not even cause the unit(s) to respond.
This also, Sony has no answer for.
Outside of that, the unit performs admirably.
There are spatial settings for the stereo speakers that make anything produced by the unit sound quite good, if not excellant.
All in all, if you don't mind missing 'some' of the image on the TV screen, this is a very well designed unit. Add DVD capability and you'd corner the market.

INSTALLATION AND SET-UP OF THE TV WAS MODERATELY DIFFICULT SINCE I DIDN'T RECEIVE A MANUAL OR INSTRUCTIONS. THE TV/RADIO/CD PLAYER/CLOCK ALL WORK WELL, AND I AM VERY PLEASED WITH ALL THE FEATURES. THE PRICE WAS GREAT!

This is solid unit. Works great. Purchased it at a great price. Wish the screen was bigger but picture is great. I purchased a GPX model. I should have thrown in the trash upon arrival and cut out the middle man. It barely worked upon arrival and then the tv stopped working completely soon after.

Great unit. Large but easy to install. well laid-out controlls. Remote is full function and sticks to fridge. Screen a little small but great picture.
Great sound. Replaced a GPX unit which didn't last a year and gave endless problems. Spend the extra money for the SONY in the first place and avoid my mistake.

Received what they wanted to buy, the Sony ICF-CD555TV 7 in is the best in their field, for those who like the kitchen is a perfect entertainment

i bought it on brand name the price was fair and could not fine one locally
there was no instruction book bu easy to figure out

My first eBay experience was not a good one. I received a different item from the one I had bid on and won. It was also filthy. I was very disappointed not to have received my purchase, and with the lost time and energy involved with this (not as described ) item. The seller did refund the full purchase price.

We purchased the ICF-CD555TV and placed it under the kitched cabinet a couple of years ago. It has a great picture, the timer feature is very handy and sound quality was nice for the size of the unit. We were very pleased with our purchase after a year. Unfortunately our unit decided one day to just melt down. There must have bee some internal short in the circuitry and a portion of the front panel literally melted. Needless to say, the unit died and we had no warranty left. We liked the TV so much though, we bought another one on E-bay. We purchased a 3 year extended warranty this time which will probably insure that the tv will work at least until the warranty expires.
