    Can't get any answers or help from anyone, classic no one wants to know or offer any suggestion as to the problem. LG Stnks don't buy one.

    Bought my LG RZ-42PX11 plasma in 2005, it developed tiny red pixels after 8 months so i sent it away for repair. it came back with thick red lines down the screen so sent it away again.. It came back with pink colours in the middle of the screen so it went away again... all in all three different parts were replaced over the space of 12 months. LG customer service are appalling to deal with and don't really seem to care. The tv has now developed the same problem with tiny green dots this time ...

    This LG RZ-42PX11 is my second tele in 4 weeks. It's xmas eve and all I have is a black screen and volume! Not a happy man! Taking it back to the shop as soon as it opens this morning and changing it for a different make. I would not advise any one to buy an lg product. Very very poor.

    I bought a DVD disc base recorder at the same time and its never worked right so my advice is stay miles away from LG as they don't deserve our hard earned money. I think it is the worst equipment on the planet.

    I've had my RZ42PX11 for 2 1/2 years. It has recently broken down needing all new pcb boards totaling £439.44 at trade price!! I originally paid £1500.00 for this TV and think that this is not good value for money at all. I am currently in talks with the company I purchased this TV from regards to who should pay for the repairs. As under the sale of goods act 1979 you have up to 6 years to make a claim if it can be proved there is a manufacturing based defect. Reading some other comm ...

    Purchased mine Nov. 2004. Just 8 months after expiry of guarantee it broke down. We sent it to be repaired and asked to be informed about cost before they do it. They just called one morning saying they repaired it. I got mad because they did not inform us ahead and because of the cost (500 Euro). They claim they had to replace 2 boards. I complained about the whole handling and the cost. What's the result? I have been punished with delayed delivery! How can such bad quality and service be so ex ...

    Purchased my TV a year ago and have nothing but problems. I'm currently on the 3rd unit. LG is completely appalling to deal with. Each time it goes down I have to wait about 4 weeks to get it back up. Don't waste your money with LG. They truly don't care about there customers. Yes the have a 2 year warranty on some of there TVs. But try and use it.

    Now had this Plasma TV for 2 years and have to say it has been really great; so many connectivity options and been using a DVD player with a digital connection to the TV and looks awesome! Additionally, have used both a PC on the VGA port as well as composite connection to my Xbox 360 using the HD cable and looks stunning - pristine picture quality! Picture contrast is only 3000:1 however looks fantastic - films display true vibrant colours and blacks are dead black - just try running the THX op ...

    My LG RZ-42PX11 was two years old on 20/09/2006. Two weeks ago it broke down. It requires a new video panel costing £411. So much for 30,000 hours. LG doesn't want to know. Beware!

    I've had my LG RZ-42PX11 Plasma T.V. since December 2004, and I have been thrilled with it. AV Forums have a section on this screen with loads of advice on setting it up, and lip-sync etc... There are more connections than on any close competitor, and the on-board tuner works well, although you'll need a decent aerial and a strong signal to get a good picture.

    Connected to an XBox with component cables yields a fantastic DVD watching (and game-playing) experience.

    The remote can be a bit ...

    LG RZ-42PX11 - For its price you can't fault it, despite the large screen size I was pleased to see that the TV does not take over the lounge. It was easy to set up and all the possible conections you may need are available.

    I did have to spend some time resetting my AV amplifier so the lip sync problem was corrected. Those of you with a simpler amplifier may still have problems.

    Overall I am very happy with it, I hope I feel this way in a year or so.

    Skin complexion on the LG RZ-42PX11 can look very luminant, and I need to adjust colour /brightness and contrast for each program I watch.

    Picture quality on the LG RZ-42PX11 is very good once you have tinkered with settings in hidden service menu great price picture quality improves with age. About 250 hours of use if you look on AV forums.com. Loads of peoples settings on there, helps you to set up to create the best picture possible. I've had mine since December and are very pleased with it and I'm really fussy with picture quality, before this I had a 36 inch Philips CRT but the picture on the LG plasma is better once tweake ...

    The LG RZ-42PX11 is a good looking, budget priced 42" TV is something not to be sniffed at, but you have got to bare in mind the long term consequences of its negative points.

    I am struggling with coming to terms with the colour banding, which seem to occur on low quality images, dark images and colour gradients on smooth objects, such as a close-up shot of a face. I often play with the colour/contrast/brightness settings, and can sometimes eliminate these problems partially, but they are nev ...

    For a low budget it is recommended. (See Good Points)

    The LG-RZ42PX11 is despite the odds actually quite a good plasma and would probably impress all but the most demanding of home-cinema enthusiasts.

    Picture quality is generally good and you get a wide range of digital affects to taylor the picture the way that you like it. I feed Sky Digital into the screen and find that the picture is although slightly fizzy on some channels not bad at all. With it's 100cd/m2 brightness and 3000:1 contrast ratio you do get a performance that is comparable wit ...
