This little GE looks like it's doing EXACTLY what most boaught them for.

I like how BORING it looks here. it's actually a GREAT performer. I almost put the Sears 9" color set here, but it's actually a bigger cabinet.

I bought the same model, branded as a Gold Star, at K-Mart back in 1983-1984 for my kitchen. I agree, not the most exciting set, but it did exactly what I bought it for --- to watch the news and weather while I ate lunch in the kitchen or prepared supper. I felt I didn't need a color set for that type of use, and it was smaller and considerabily cheaper than the $250 price a basic 13" color set was commanding back then. I moved in '85 and sold it for $10 to lighten my load.
