“Bad quality technology”

Written on: 25/05/2013

My Bush television has worked fine for one year, as soon as it went over it's one year guarantee the sound cuts out when the television gets warm, the only way to get the sound back on is to turn it off and back on again. Once it gets warm after less than an hour it then cuts off ever five minutes, sometimes every minute.It is terribly frustrating and makes it hard to watch anything. I wouldn't buy a Bush television again, it's better to go for a brand like Samsung, which is a bit expensive... (read more)

“Do not buy an Alba or Bush LCD/Combi tv”

Written on: 10/05/2013 by Oggythedoggy (1 review written)

My son had just got a full time job and decided to buy his dad a 16 inch tv for his Christmas to watch in the kitchen. It lasted 10 months. The colour went green then the picture went to half the size of the screen!!! Argos changed it but we had to upgrade to a 19 inch for another 30 pounds. This has just lasted 17 months . It would not move from standby. We phoned the Argos helpline who were very good but the tv only lasted another 10 minutes before the screen went green and blue then... (read more)

Argos used to have good service. I paid £540 for a Panasonic 37" which was a very good deal as that particular model was being discontinued, but the TV failed only after three months. I took it back and they said it would be replaced with a similar spec model. They replaced my £540 37" Panasonic for a £299 37" Bush! When I demanded the difference in cash, a very smug manager pointed out that the Argos guarantee only promises to replace faulty goods with "similar spec" and "not" similar price. They have lost my custom for ever!!!

Yes, but it's warranted for 6 years on a pro-rata basis, as are nearly all electrical goods. It's the law now. I used this law against Argos quite a few years ago and they refunded 75% of the cost of a Playstation 2 after 18 months because the laser had failed. They are fully aware of this law, as you will find if you write a letter of complaint to their head office quoting the law.

“stuck on stand-by”

Written on: 19/04/2013

Bought a 19" Bush TV with DVD player. It was only to have in the kitchen to watch the news occasionally while making dinner. I've probably watched it a couple of dozen times. Now it's stuck on stand-by. I can't find my Argos receipt but I think it is just under a year old. Complete rubbish. Total waste of money I can ill afford as I have recently retired. I've given one star grudgingly as it would not let me proceed without putting it in. (read more)

If you want a tv for 12 months, rent one rather than waste money on this. I'm sure Bush put some sort of self-destruct program in that cuts it out after 13 months. It's like being robbed. (read more)

“TV lasted a month!”

Written on: 26/01/2013

Got my son a 22" bush tv for his bedroom for Christmas. It's now refusing to turn on and the Argos help line were far from helpful. As you can see by the date the tv lasted exactly 1 month and he only watches cartoons for half an hour while getting dressed for school and then he sits and watches films at the weekend on it. I doubt if its had 24 hours use and it's knackered. Total waste of time, money and obviously poor quality. I begrudge giving it 1 star to be honest as its not that good! (read more)

Written on: 16/02/2013

Similar to the review "TV lasted a month!"
I bought a Bush BTVD91216B in September 2012 from Argos, for my elderly mother.
This TV has not had 12 hours "viewing time"
Because she rarely watches tv, the defect was not properly identified until January 2013.
The red standby light in the middle of the bottom panel is on, but even by using the manual buttons on the top of the tv, I cannot get the tv to turn on. No channels whatsoever.
Having seen other reviews, this appears to be a common fault.
I will be taking this tv back to Argos for a refund, or change of tv.
NO STARS. Do NOT buy, even if you see it at a discounted price.

This tv has multiple failure modes which first appear by not responding to the remote control It will then respond incorrectly to the manual buttons with functions being wrongly assigned Power off becomes channel up. Channel down becomes volume up etc The only way to turn the unit off or on is with the standby button Quite possibly the worst television I have ever seen for this ridiculous failure my friend has another bush tv with the same problem Avoid them at all costs (read more)

Received this TV/DVD combi as a Christmas Present. Straight away I was not overly happy with the sound quality so bought some external speakers which improved the quality no end. Only way to turn the TV off is by unplugging from the mains as the TV only has a standby mode; not ideal in this day and age where we are all trying to save energy. Now only 4 months old the DVD player has packed up and refuses to eject a DVD. I will be ringing Argos tomorrow to hopefully get it fixed. Overall a... (read more)

I have the same tv. I bought it on 21st December & had to return it on the 8th March. The tv, quite simply will not switch on. I'm sill waiting for it to be returned, after numerous phone calls & emails, & it's now 9th April.
You're right about the sound - terrible. If i could have heard the tv before i bought it i would not have purchased it.
I'll never buy another Bush tv & certainly not from Argos. That was my mistake.
Even at Adsa, you can get to see the tv working on the shelf.

With my 22 inch Bush TV/DVD combi. if you should have to unplug the TV it will not swich back on again for days (currently 6 days and still waiting on my latest unplugging). All I get from Bush / Argos is automated responses. Customer service is very poor. The TV is only a 4 months old. I would not buy another as Internet evidence seems to show this is a recurring fault

I dont have any issue with the BUSH TV/DVD COMBO other than when I record or playback a TV show, the record/stop/play/pause etc symbols that are on the remote are displayed on the bottom half of the TV and I have no idea how to get rid of it.

The reason the screen shifts is because Its called pixel shifting it stops static images permanetly burning onto the screen ( image Retention) by moving the picture around by a few pixels left right up down etc. You will notice some of the major brands IE samsung also use this technology.

I dont reckon that is a problem with the bush tv. More like some div in the warehouse dropped it. I prefer to reserve mine and pick up - less chance of getting a dodgy item.

A few of these reviews seem more like problems with Argos or not knowing how to use new TV features rather than proper reviews of the Bush TV.

Some response comments have made me laugh. Others like the pixel shifting have been interesting - will be looking closely at my new Bush TV now to check if they move :-)

“why am I not able to tune in my sky control hand set...”

Written on: 11/01/2011

why am I not able to tune in my sky control hand set to operate yhe volume control. when I got in touch with sky we tried 30 different codes still could not adjust the volume, it works with everything else. so we tried bush and was given a further 4 code numbers to try, still no luck, then I was put through to another operative who then told me they did'nt have a code for this particular model[bush BPDP42HD] and can't give any imformation when there will be a code for this model. looks like...

I found this review not helpful because...
<br/>Shock, Horror, the Sky hand set doesn't work with this TV, so how do you change Sky channels? Presumably you have to use the Sky controller, so you have to use both hand sets anyway.
<br/>My point is this is hardly a big deal.

bush do not make codes for sky remotes thompson make codes for you to operate your sky remote with other tvs however they simply do not make codes for every single make and model even more so for cheap tvs like bush,the original manufacturer went bust decades ago it is described as an oem product in another words the tv is made by a far eastern country and made cheaply argos have simply bought the rights to use the name bush,branding am afraid,comet are just the same with goodmans,and surprisingly theres also a jvc on the market which is infact made by vestel(cheap turkish brand but slightly better than bush)

Congratulations! So you've finally gotten a bigger apartment and can finally afford a nice TV set for your football games and romantic stay-at-home movie dates. Before you write a cheque or swipe your shiny credit card for a nice big TV, you should first check the following list and make sure that you do understand the difference between getting a plasma or LCD TV.

Written on: 03/01/2011

I have just bought a bush 42ins model [BPDP42HD] plasma up until now it seems to be O,K, until I tried to turn the volume down with my sky remote control it won't adjust the sound all though it operates everything else. then when I tried to tune it in there was no code for it, when I got in touch with sky they were very helpful and tried over twenty different codes they could not find one . I then got in touch with bush they were not able to help. I then found twenty five reviews for bush... (read more)

Written on: 12/11/2010

I have a 19in HD Ready DTV/dvd model LY1911wcw. It has stopped remembering settings such as favourites every time I put it in standbt mode.
I have done software updates & rescanned chennels.
If I delete a lot of unwanted channels (radio, text etc) it puts them back after standby or off.
Bush is now owned by Argos but I cannot find any support line/site for Bush products.
Rubbish support will eventually result in no sales.

“Ipurchased a Bush 32" digital freeview ready tv in...”

Written on: 27/10/2010 by Nilanka

Ipurchased a Bush 32" digital freeview ready tv in November 2006 via Freemans Catalogue. It has been a nightmare. Unfortunately I did not take out the extra 3 year guarantee.

8 months ago I lost all digital channels, and although I have a new digital aerial, it has been checked by two tv engineers who say the digital part is now u/s. I am disgusted with the tv. It has now been tuned to just 4 channels, BBC1 BBC2, ITV and Channel 4.

I am going to write to Bush but cannot find an... (read more)

I also bought a Bush TV from Argos (big mistake) as everyone now tells me they are a badged brand (cheap imports). I cant even get a picture after just 2 years. It is a blank screen with 'contact local service centre' which is a joke as there none!!!!

“I have two Bush TVs, one is 32 inch and the other 42...”

Written on: 17/09/2010

I have two Bush TVs, one is 32 inch and the other 42 inch, both of which are brilliant. They were a good price and I have no regrets. I really don't see what the other people are talking about with regards to their Bush reviews as I have never experienced any problems with mine. Would definitely buy another one if needed and would recommend to anyone. Also Mac prices are well worth it. (read more)
