Pretty darn good...
We are happy with this unit, but as others have mentioned the competition for this type of product is pretty weak, so it's only better than others out there.
If we were going to watch whole DVDs in this unit - one's we hadn't seen before - we'd be pretty distressed that the 16x9 picture is stuck at a wide screen aspect ratio, so that something that should be 16x9 is kinda squished top to bottom. Adjustments, other than switching to 4x3, have no affect on the built in screen. But we don't really care 'cause we're going to watch new DVDs in another room anyway. This TV is for company and comfort in the kitchen and it's just fine for that.
The radio is very nice - we love NPR in the morning - but the tuning is funky like others have said.
The unit detected lots and lots of channels on the cable and supposedly some are in HD - but who can tell on a 9" screen?
If it will just keep working for at least a couple of years we'll be happy.

Customer Service Was Helpful
Our unit had some initial problems but they were solved by Audiovox tech support. Set up and installation are straight forward. The footprint of the TV works well with a standard above counter cabinet and results in a nice clean look.
TV
Our TV has an excellent picture with a cable connection. The unit has about a 3-5 sec sound delay after you see the picture on start up and on channel change. The remote is small with a lot of mini buttons on limited real estate. The TV is not perfect but it meets our needs and overall is a good value. This unit was for a second home. We are now buying one for our year around house.
TECH SUPPORT
Our unit worked as advertised for about three weeks. After a power outage we couldn't get any sound, however the picture was fine. After a 10 minute hold I got a knowledgeable tech support representative. He thought there was a reasonable chance the unit was toast, so he did two things. He gave me instructions on how to do a hard restart / reboot of the TV and he connected me with customer support so I could get a return authorization (without starting over all over in their system). After getting my return authorization I played with the reboot and got my unit working. The family now has 6+months use with the unit without further problems.
Save your box. They have a repair or replace return program that sounded reasonable. Fortunately I haven't needed to try it yet.

Don't waste your money!
I bought this item last Christmas. By June, it was malfunctioning. While watching a program, it completely goes blank, and after a few minutes, it will come back on, on a different volume level, and different station. After repeated calls on the customer service line, and numerous emails, still no reply. Such a waste of money! I got what I paid for, $200 of "shame on me". I should have done research instead of buying was professed as a good deal. I will think twice next time!!!!!

Bought on June, display stopped working on November
I bought this player for a gift for my wife. We liked everything about it, but wish we bought the extended warranty. The display stopped working after only 5 months. Unfortunately, the warranty on this item is only 3 months so we're out of luck. Needless to say, I will not be buying any Audiovox products in the future.

Audiovox VE927 Flip Down TV... We Love It !!!
We purchased the Audiovox VE927 Flip down TV September 2008. After having it in our kitchen for approx. 6 weeks I can honestly say that we love it. We have a small kitchen, so this was the only way to go. It is made really well, much better than the pictures show. Lets face it... it's not the same as your hi-tech flat screen in your living room...but what do you really need while your getting dinner ready or doing dishes! By today's standards the price is right too. I do wish that it had a longer warranty than 90 days...that makes me a little nervous! It was easy to mount & we hooked it up to one of Verizon's Fios small adaptor boxes (I mounted it under the counter next to the unit) & we get all the channels. Amazon is always great to buy from, although the "free shipping" was a little slow...it took a week to come. All in all we love it! ...Just perfect for our small kitchen. If this is what you need, you will be happy !!!
