My 24 hour notice from the TV delivery person turned out to be more like 24 minutes. I got a call from my mother-in-law at 1:30 that the TV would be here between 2 and 3. At 3:30 she called to say the delivery person was here, but didn’t know what to do with the TV. 15 minutes later I was home and got the real story, the driver’s paperwork didn’t specify in home delivery. He was only required to get it to my front porch. If I wanted, he would help me put it in the house, but he couldn’t be held responsible if the TV got damaged while we did it. So carefully we moved into the living room using his dolly. Upon opening the box I realized just how big this TV is. It wasn’t going to fit in the armoire without me trimming a bigger hole in the back, so the tube would poke out far enough in back, so we can close the front doors. I wouldn’t sign the receipt and let him go until I at least hooked up the cable to it and tried it out. Looked OK so I sent the trucker driver on his way and I went back to work. After we got home I got out my trusty jigsaw and sliced up the particle board so it would fit. Then my wife and I hoisted this puppy into the armoire. If it was any higher up we would have never made it, it weights 150lbs. They webpage said the width was 33-7/8 and the opening of the cabinet was 34-1/2 one of those is a little off as one door slightly rubs one side when opened or closed, any more and the TV wouldn’t have fit. Here is what a JVC AV-36260 looks like, of course it is much bigger in person. 🙂
