More specifically I'm kind of partial to oddball small sets from this era. GE had the Spacemaker color undercabinet sets (I also like the Spacemaker undercabinet radios), Magnavox I think made a white 13" and RCA had a white one too with a washable remote I remember seeing in a catalog.

Just wondering if anyone else likes these oddballs. Generally I really like the smaller 13" sets of this era. Especially the Malaysian made Magnavox 'Total Remote Control' 13", which reminds me of those old Channel One TVs from school. Sometimes they're branded Philco and maybe Philips. We used to have a 1996 RCA rounded back 13" I always thought had an awesome picture, unfortunately I think a surge took it out.

Oh, and once I found a Mitsubishi 13" on my street, which was white as well. I ended up getting rid of it because the picture was really fuzzy and me being a kid I didn't feel comfortable opening it up. Strangely that one had no way of accessing any of it's adjustments, because it was missing the remote, and there were no adjustment buttons on the panel.
I have three GE spacemaker color sets, two were in the original boxes and one well used. All 5" color sets. The well-used one, the cabinet is discolored but works well.
All the larger under-cabinet models seem to be nine inchers. Two Panasonics that are discolored, the pictures great, but the sound quality is terrible.
