Dismantling a Mitsubishi 65-inch TV is necessary for many delivery scenarios.

Mitsubishi 65-inch rear-projection TVs are large. As a result, Mitsubishi engineers realized that getting these mammoth sets up and down steps and around corners would be at times impossible, unless the set could split in two. Mitsubishi wisely engineered its CRT rear-projection TVs to easily disassemble, though you'll need the help of one or two other people to manage the weight and unwieldy nature of the set's components. Once separated, 65-inch Mitsubishi TVs are far easier to deliver and install.
