5 out of 5 stars Great Tv Great Price   September 21, 2008

4 out of 5 stars Great lower end TV   August 4, 2010
Nellybelly333 (Vermont)
I have had this TV for two years and I love it. It has never presented any problems and has always run perfectly. It does not have as great of a picture as some of the $2,000 TV's, but what do you expect? Vizio is no Samsung or Panasonic, but they make a good TV.


3 out of 5 stars Decent for the price   December 8, 2008

Bottom line...good picture and great with 3 HDMI connections as well as two component connections. Not the best quality out there but if you're looking for something for a bedroom or second room this would fit perfect.


1 out of 5 stars Dead in a year and three months   December 20, 2009

I purchased this TV in September of 2008. Yesterday, I turned it on to have sound but no picture.

Tech support half-heartedly walked me through steps to diagnose, told me it was out of warranty and would cost less to replace than to repair.

Perhaps I'm spoiled - my last TV (different technology, admittedly) lasted 14 years. But I don't believe that the only choice after a little more than year of use should be to replace the unit completely.

I'll be replacing the TV with something other than a Vizio, and warning everyone I can to avoid this brand.



1 out of 5 stars This IS 1080p NOT 1080i   May 23, 2009

If you look on the box, manual, and the actual TV settings, this IS a 1080p TV. It is NOT a 1080i as listed on Amazon. Thought to clear up that confusion.

Also the PiP is fake. You cannot watch two different channels on it.

Next, (4/15/2010), the tv randomly turns itself off ... you would expect a tv to last at least a year .... DO NOT BUY.
