I recently purchased the Toshiba 40VL758B LED TV from Amazon, having spent quite a considerable length of time searching all the reviews that I could and also going to stores that had the TV on display. With a limited budget I knew what I wanted and I have always researched a future purchase quite vigorously as I do not like buying items on the spur of the moment only to find that it wasn't what you wanted. I knew that from a quality point of view that there would be no problem with Toshiba, but I had read some poor reviews on this TV, it must be noted however that most of the reviews were comparing it to TV's almost double the price and in some cases a lot more.
One of the main area's of concern was the sound quality, but after comparing the Toshiba to other higher priced TV's I came to the conclusion that the sound Navi 5 band equalizer could be used to tweak the sound output to an acceptable tone. I also had concerns with WLM-10U2 Dual Band WLAN Adapter as the reviews indicated that there was a problem with getting this side of the TV up and running, but I thought for the additional price of the adapter if this was a problem area then if things did not work out it was not a great expense.
I have now been using the TV for nearly 2 weeks and I must confess that I am over the moon with it, the picture quality is stunning and the sound quality is satisfyingly good. The design of this TV is quite exceptional as the front is a one piece of glass with a matching glass covered stand, there are no buttons or switches on the front, but there are touch sensors that react to your fingers and light up when you activate them.
The rear connections cater for about any scenario that you may wish for with 4 HDMI inputs, 2 USB inputs, 1 Scart in/out, EX 1, EX 2, EX 3, PC or ATV.
I was not looking forward to plugging in the WLAN Adapter after reading the reviews on the subject, however I was pleasantly surprised when the TV connected with the home network in the easy setup option without a hitch, within a couple of minutes I was watching YouTube. The only problem that I encountered was that I had to move my home hub to obtain a better reception for the TV as it was struggling at times due to 2 solid brick walls.
I think that this TV is one hell of a piece of kit, the picture is stunning, the sound is very good as long as you get to know the controls and tweak the sound Navi equalizer to achieve the tone that you require. The design is exceptional and the connectivity is very comprehensive and into the bargain you can watch YouTube on it as well as BBC iplayer.
I think the Toshiba 40VL758B LED TV is exceptional good value for money and can hold it's own against TV's of a higher price, I myself am totally satisfied with the TV and I am very pleased and consider that I purchased a bargain.
I have edited this review to add information about the reflectiveness of the screen on the Toshiba LED, it is unfortunate but to my knowledge the LED and Plasma screens that I have seen are all very reflective. I have checked out the technical issue and the manufacturers state that the quality of the display will not be as apparent without the perfect reflective screen, I found the fact that all LED screens were very reflective was a great issue with myself after looking for some time for the right TV package. In the end I had to accept that it's the way they do it and if you look into the theory of it you begin to understand, however I have not found the reflectiveness to be an issue when using the TV, in fact the only time you really notice it is when you are watching a very dark scene and you have a very bright light on to the front of the screen. At the same time the position of the TV is facing away from the window and you do not have any problem watching TV in bright daylight, but I have a couple of friends who have positioned their TV either facing the window or at 90o to the window and they both have trouble when watching TV through the day. It is recommended however for the best viewing experience the TV screen should always be faced away from the window and I have always positioned all my TV's over the years as so. It may be worth mentioning that in my experience if you watch an LCD screen that faces a window the screen always looks pasty or faded and lacks any clarity and the brighter the day the worse this effect has on the picture.

We had been on the lookout for an LED for a long time. We wanted 100hz and full hd as a minimum but also coveted a glass fronted model but the Sony ones we'd seen were very expensive so we were delighted to find Toshiba did one too. This glass-fronted tv is very good looking and we think slimmer than the Sony. We read some reviews that the sound wasn't good but for a super-slim LED where there obviously isn't much room the sound is as good as can be expected. What we were a bit disappointed by is the very slow response time and the clickyness of the super-size remote. However, we would probably still buy it if we'd known. We bought the dongle for internet tv (BBC iPlayer and youtube) but have not been impressed - it's obviously still in the teething stages. We hope it gets a software upgrade at some point if this is possible. Most of the time we still plug in our laptop to get iPlayer but when it works it's good albeit a bit cumbersome with the navigation via the remote.

Accidentally toppled my favourite old Sony TV(inc surround sound speakers) in my bedroom onto the floor & it had to be consigned to the recyclying plant.(din`t claim on my insurance) Moved a 37 inch wall mounted Toshiba Regza from the "family room" to the bedroom and after a lot of searching decided on the 40VL758B. Delivery via DHS was excellent, set up was easy by following the on screne instruction. I knew the sound would be a liitle bit thin in camparison to my main Sony with a surround system (Onkyo AV receiver and Kef speakers, but the big dissapointment was the JJ full glass front design. Looks impressive, but because of where I have to wall mount the TV (no option)there is a huge reflective light, almost like a mirror that makes viewing difficult during the day. Excellent picture when the room is dark. Tweeking around with the equalizers improves the quality of the sound as with the viewing options.
Excellent LED TV, but if anyone is thinking about buying, just make sure any light coming into the room is from the rear of the TV. Surprised that this, in my view, a problem hasn`t been noted before
