 The unit did not function as a television July 31, 2005
16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I bought this item to function as both a television and DVD player, and to replace my old, bulky Action (aka Axion) 5 inch TV. But the Axion TV/DVD would not operate as a TV because it never received about half of the broadcast channels in my area. I never tested the DVD player function.
I do not have cable or direct TV. The 3 TVs in my home receive all thirteen (13) local broadcast channels with the aid of indoor antennas, or, in the case of the 5-inch Action TV, via its built-in monopole antenna. So I was surprised when the Axion TV/DVD could not receive channels.
The Axion TV/DVD does not appear to have a built-in antenna. If it does, it is not visible. Without an antenna, it received about 2 of the 13 available channels, but poorly. I tried every possible indoor antenna I could find (Radio Shack was very gracious with all my returns). I returned the first unit and tried a second unit, thinking the first was defective, and again tried various antennas. I tried other locations for the TV/DVD. But at best I could only get about half of the 13 channels to be viewable, even with the best indoor antenna. I even called Axion itself, and they could not help. So I returned the second unit for a full refund.
If Axion ever builds a similar TV/DVD player with a similar price that has decent TV reception, I would give it another try because the price and small size are great.

Definitely Disappointed
The main purpose of buying this product was to use it on the road, however
It does not work (bum) with an external antenna. Any other tv does, its really disappointing.
NO ANTENNEA FOR THE TV! November 13, 2006

This portable TV sounds great except they made a few mistakes in the design. They don't tell you that there is NO ANTENNEA nor that the TV will not work without an antennea! The portable DVD player is great. THE TV IS HORRIBLE. When we did get an antennea the tv worked but we went to numerous stores and the all the antenneas we found were big and bulky plus had to be hooked then unhooked when we wanted to put the unit away without an antennea sticking out to get broken. DON'T BUY THIS FOR THE TV! We ended up purchasing a different product that had the antennea built in. This one was a total waste of money.

I've never written a review before but I see this product is getting a bum rap by some people who are upset that it doesn't have an internal antenna. If you have cable hook-up don't let them deter you from purchasing this excellent TV/DVD player. The picture is superb and the sound quality is very good. I've been using it for 8 months now in the kitchen and have had not one single problem. My house guests also like it. Highly recommend! April 6 2008- I am now adding nearly 2 years later that this is still an excellent product with no problems. It works and looks as good as the day it arrived.

i got this to have at our home for our grandson but it came with no remote although the box stated one was included plus it didn't seem to work in our home with our cable service and after calling customer service several times and only getting voice mail.....i felt it might be a sign that this product was a lemon and i'd better cut my loses and return it! it may just have been the ONE that i received but it didn't seem like an American made high quality item. Again it may only have been ONE lemon and the rest may all be super....but i'm only commenting on my experience so you can weigh your decision to buy or not on that. =D
