I personally LOVE the old CRT televisions. I have several flat screens in my home as well, but there's something about the draw of an old CRT TV that brings me right back to them. In my living room, I have a vintage RCA 25" floor model Console TV that we have hooked up to our Wii U and the kids absolutely LOVE playing it on that old TV set. I also restore and refurbish the old antique televisions as well. I currently have an early 1950's Zenith B&W floor model TV that I'm slowly getting restored back to useable condition! Absolutely love the nostalgia they bring back!

I have two 19" CRT TVs in the bedrooms. One is labeled Sylvania and the other is Emerson but they are the same set except one is gray and one is black. They were some of the last CRT sets being sold and have digital tuners, though they have never been used with an antenna. They also have flat glass.
In the living room had a Sears 25" console from the 80s, that was a good set but it shorted out and was replaced with a 32" Sanyo, that set also had a great picture, but some expensive part went bad so it got replaced with an LCD Westinghouse. That one was just okay. It accidentally got knocked over in the dark in middle of the night so it was replaced with an LED LG which seems to have a better picture. I still think the Sanyo had a better picture though. |

Still use CRT TVs myself! One is a woodgrain 21 in Toshiba from 1987 and the other being a woodgrain 12 in Emerson from 1991.
I'd love to get an old 50s or 60s tube/transistor hybrid set someday! Something about the warm glow is simply appealing to the eye. Modern sets are nice as well, but you can't beat an old CRT set. |

I have a Zenith tv from the 90's in a spare bedroom. The sound on it is amazing and actually has bass. I usually turn it on just to listen to music channels. I think mine is the 32in. Very nice in it's day.
