HANNSpree LCD TVs
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 02.10.06
HANNSpree has a delightful line of LCD televisions somewhat reminiscent of Swedx's wood-encased jobbies. We like their slick, retro-modern design and ultra-minimal use of materials; each one resembles a flat-panel computer monitor in size. Each model has its own name (here we have the HANNSwood and HANNSvaas, respectively) and its own style, which can really color the room it lives in. So often things like televisions are static and sterile-looking, so we're glad to see a little personality in consumer electronics, and when the cases are built with a renewable resources instead of a petroleum products, it only makes it better. Prices run from $299 to over $1,000 US. ::HANNSpree via ::decor8
I'm not so sure that the Hannspree sets feature much more renewable resources than your average TV. I got to test one last autumn (and wrote up the review for Amazon and the VAAS is definitely plastic. I think the HANNSwood is also fairly plastic as well, though I didn't have my hands on that one. Still, it's a stylin' telly!
Saw these at Target yesterday, they look very nice, if a bit pricey.
Hannspree's TVs are so fantastic. I like these products.
