We have a small Sharp TV with built in DVD player for the caravan. We got it from a supermarket (can’t remember which one) but it was not expensive and it does great for our purpose. We don’t watch a massive amount of TV while we are away but we like to have it for rainy evenings so we didn’t want to spend a fortune. You really don’t need a fancy caravan TV like an Avtex unless you are going to be off grid and need something that runs off 12v. A standard TV is fine if you are hooked up to electric.

Any cheap one really with a DVD built in, issue is not the TV but the ariel system, and pointing antenna in right direction of TV signal.
I used to use a mast and simple tv ariel, and never had any issues now got a roof mounted tv ariel on van, and tuning is a little more difficult.
But othwrwise all okay.

We currently have a Median from Aldi - but not seen any for sale for quite a while. we also use it to tune in to TV when we are in France. However I am looking for a new second set for home and have spotted the Cello models and chosen carefully they will do the job... have a look at Richer Sounds.

Its a very open question. If you will always are on a site with hook-up then any 230v TV will do. Although I would add that if you value the quality of the picture it probably pays to go for one of the better known brands as you would if buying your main television. If you are going to need to use 12v the Avtex is the best but there are other brands almost as good and cheaper.

Got a cheap 19" DVD Tv from Argos, Mains only, no 12 volt, but good when on hook up and works great with the Eco Flow box for a few hours when in the wilds.
