how many inches have you got?

[MarkF]

50" here, replaced a 43" that developed a fault. Mounted on a wall, cables hidden in plaster. It's bloody brilliant.
I'm surprised we haven't had the usual disproportionate representation of the "I don't have a TV, got rid of it 30 years ago" type on this thread yet. People who don't have TVs are like vegetarians, they can't wait to tell everyone else about how 'different' they are.

Funnily enough, we'll get rid of our when the kids leave home, oh, and we are veggies too.

Hope your cables fail.

Strange ours was ordered from Argos, I called on the day and they said it hadnt been picked up so wasnt going to turn up, I complained about I could of waited allday and asked for a refund.. anyway it was picked up and delivered and refunded with del cost!! Bonus, free 42" LED tv

 

[4F]

That's barely bigger than my main monitor at work.

42" I wanted 46" be OH said it would be too big, she then started moaning a few months later that we should have bought a 46".

Just move your sofa closer to the screen

Ahhh, did I offend the delicate veggie? duddums.

I've got a 29" main screen and a 19" secondary screen.

A sofa would be nice but don't think you can get one to suit a corner desk.

21" CRT, bought in Aldi a few years ago. Used to watch Grand Prixs and practically nothing else. Won't be replaced whenever it dies.

I have a 32" that my mother bought me as a wedding present in 2005, the previous one was a 28" that mum bought me for Christmas in 2001 and the one before that was a 14" from mum in 1994. I'm 33 years old and have never bought a tv. The 32" has also outlasted the husband by six years!

I quite fancy a flat screen tv for space saving porpoises but it seems pointless when there's nothing wrong at all with the one I have. It's a JVC and will probably last forever

 

[DRHysted]

It was bought a few years ago, and I simply bought the best I could afford at the time, it just happened to be 48". There was larger screens in the shop, but they were lower spec. I wouldn't say it dominates the room, and because I've built it into a unit, I'll never buy a bigger screen.

I haven't got a clue how big mine is ( ) but it's an old one, in the shape of a massive box that takes up an entire corner of our (quite large) living room. It has it's own gravity field, but strangely repels remote controls, throwing them out of its field, to all corners of the room.

 

[Sandra6]

Ours if 50inches.
It was actually a compromise - Mr6 wanted a projector and screen!
To be fair we did buy it to fit in a 15' square room, with a ceiling as high again and it looked a little lost, not so now we live in a normal size house again!

 

[Stringy Bob]

A 90 inch TV. Wow, imagine that smashing through a hotel window. Rock and roll!!!!

 

[MossCommuter]

No size of telly marks the owner out as a chav or common but any size of telly mounted six feet high on a chimney breast with a sofa neck-craningly close to it does so instantly.

Moss, you must stop sitting in the front row...

I only have a TV for games (don't have a TV licence and don't watch TV) and I'm a vegan, is that close enough?

EDIT: Oh yeah, mine is 42".

 

[Over The Hill]

32 here.
Got it about five years ago (Panasonic and have since got the Panasonic recording box thing that used to be called a video player).

As they say it is more about what you do with it!! Room size and how far away from the screen you are. After all they have the same number of dots in them (*) and the bigger the screen the bigger the dots. I found the quality of the bigger screens to be poor by comparison if you are fairly close to them. I found the 32 to be a good balance of quality and size for where we want to put it.
