I purchased a Sharp LC-22DV27UT through Amazon on Feb 4, 2010. I don't watch a lot of movies but recently received some DVDs so decided to watch one last night.
I was not able to insert to DVD into the slot.
This was not a case of the DVD going in and being rejected or not playing correctly. I was flat unable to insert the DVD.
I called Sharp Service today and they did some very basic problem determination - unplug the power, wait one minute, then plug it back in. Tried again - will not accept the DVD. There is no Sharp Service Center close to me, so I have to wait two days until they find one and email me the shipping instructions. I, of course, have to pay the shipping costs. Then another 7 - 10 business days to get it fixed and shipped back. So, no TV for at least two weeks. (This might actually be a good thing.) I have no other TV and get very poor radio reception. I am physically limited so the TV is my primary source for news, sports, and entertainment.
I don't have any complaints about the TV itself - vivid visual images, good sound, easy to operate. However, I am just dumbfounded that Quality Control for a major manufacturer like Sharp would not catch a glaring problem like no being able to accept a DVD in the DVD slot. Maybe I'll upgrade my opinion if the repair process is handled quickly and actually fixes the problem. Until then - this thing is CRAP!!

I never heard back from Sharp, so I went on line with Amazon, clicked on order history, need replacement, explained why and was immediately notified by Amazon that they would send me an exact replacement with 1 day shipping and a free shipping label to send back the bad set. Received an email confirmation. The next morning, UPS delivered the replacement, I took the base off the old, attached it to the new, plugged it in, took 5 minutes to program channels, then tested the DVD player which worked like a charm. Didn't even unpack the rest of the components (since they are identical). Packed the old TV/DVD in the new box, taped it up and will drop it at UPS tomorrow.
I am completely satisfied with the new set and am absolutely amazed at the service from Amazon - I am an Amazon customer for life!

 

Fabulous TV!,
by Colin Buxton, 2010-05-01

This is a great TV/DVD combo! I was particularly pleased with the reception from the built-in tuner. We don't have cable/satellite so the over-the-air reception is important to us. This set gets more channels than any of our other TVs with external tuners.

Great TV!!,
by Jennifer B. Scott, 2010-05-12

I looked at all the reviews and this TV was rated among the highest. Found it for a great price and had it in 2 days. We love it. When people walk in they comment on the quality of the picture. It was super easy to set up. It is easy to move from room to room, that is why we go the 22 inch instead of the 26inch. This is the perfect size for our camping trailer and to use around the house.

 

Great Buy.....one picky issue,
by T. Kosanke, 2010-02-28

Purchased this TV a few days ago. It's great......beautiful picture and excellent sound quality. One annoying issue - -when wall mounting this product, the stand is removed but the silver mounting bracket for the stand remains visible, sticking out of the bottom of the TV by about 2 inches. Sharp wasn't thinking on this one. Even a cheap plastic cover for the bracket would have been ok.
