Hands down the best bang for your buck. We shopped around and around before we decided on this set and we couldn't be happier. Great picture, great look, great value.

I did a lot of research before pulling the trigger on this big screen, low-cost model. I'm very glad I did. The screen is huge and the picture is super clear. The setup and programming was simple because of the instructions included. I'm not a huge fan of the audio, but that goes for just about any TV. I hooked it up to my amp and surround sound, which was easy to do. Now the sound is great. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase. I would recommend this model to anyone looking for a great value and underrated big screen.

Really happy with this set, especially for the price I paid. The set itself looks amazing mounted on my wall. The picture is phenomenal for cable, DVD or gaming content - I use Xbox 360. My only complaints would be the sound and remote. Not a bid deal because I don't use either since I have a sound system and universal cable remote. Would definitely recommend.

Yea! Brought it home, plugged it in... nothing happens. The Remote doesn't work - well it does about every 10th time you push the button. Called em up... that took a while. They looked up the model number and said I probably did not have the right remote, so they sent me another. It didn't work at all! Called em back again. That took a while again, and now were not sure what remote it should have. They're gonna send me another remote like the original, except that they don't have one. I t's been a couple of months now. Still waiting. Good thing the remote from Dish works on this thing. Just wish I could change screen format, that's all.

Awesome, Picture & Sound and a Wonderful Deal

Had this for two weeks and it is outstanding. Picture is great from cable box or dvd. Sound is okay actually better than expected. It is big, got it on the wall and works great for our large living room. My dvd has all the internet buttons so with that this is an outstanding value as a good basic BIG TV

I opted for this tv based strictly on price, but there is a reason it is so cheap. While the colors are okay when viewed straight ahead, once you get beyond a viewing angle of 120 degrees the colors completely wash out, even though it is advertised to be viewable to 170 degrees. The colors lose all clarity and appear like finger-paint. [..] My advice is to avoid this tv. It proves you get what you pay for

For the price range of this TV, the picture is cool. Its not as vivid as some of the top-of-the-line brands like Samsung or Sharp, but I find it acceptable, however it should be noted that sometimes there's a line of unprocessed pixels at the top of the screen on some programs. The finish around the edge of the TV doesn't seem as smooth as other sets. One annoying thing about this TV is that when its set to HDMI 1 or HDMI 2, if you press channel up or down on the remote, the TV goes into setu p mode where it asks you if the TV is at home or in a retail environment and asks to set time zone. This is very annoying because you cant escape this setup process..it has to be completed. Every other TV I've had allows me to switch inputs using the the channel button. Maybe I'll learn to adjust...

I like this TV a lot. I just bought it today and I had it set up in minutes. I think the picture and sound quality is amazing and I don't even have HD cable programming. I can get the local channels just fine and they look great. I would highly recommend this TV to those who don't want to spend major bucks on the bigger name brands. this TV can get really loud and the remote works at a good enough distance and wide angles. [...]Get this one while its still on sale!
