Sorry, I have to disagree on that statement. I always considered them harder to work on. Harder to remove from the cabinet, as most sets here had the UHF option. Plus, you had to remove the yoke, from the CRT assembly, for bench testing and troubleshooting. You had to have a test tube, or the CRT had to be removed, as well.
BTW, the 55-56 models were better sets. A full power transformer and one piece chassis.
