Stay away from??

I'd also avoid Mitsubishi's from the late-'80's on up. Ones from that era used not so great electrolytic capacitors that will literally leak electrolyte all over the PC board and eat the traces off the board. The last Mitsubishi I took in for repair was an early '90's 27" set that had no less than 25 capacitors that were bad in some way (many were leaking electrolyte). The customer didn't want to spend much on the set and I ended up junking it. The older Mitsubishi's up until the mid-'80's were great TV's and the CRT's usually hold up well in them.
