Bright, sharp picture
This big screen TV meets or exceeds all my expectations. I have two smaller screen "Vizio" TVs and am happy with all.

great tv
I shopped around to find a tv for my rec room that I just finished in my basement and checked all the reviews. I decided on the Vizio after seeing it at the store but they didn't have it on hand and would have to order it. So I went home and ordered it online as there was free shipping right to my house. They delivered it right on time,I unpacked it,mounted it to the bracket that I had installed on the wall and turned it on.The picture was amazing with the channels in HD and the sound was very good also.No problems at all with it and would highly recommend it!!!

Save yourself the hassle.
I had to return an Insignia 50 inch 1080p 120 hz because it kept turning off and on, so I decided maybe I'd go with a better brand, so I picked up this TV instead. What a mistake. I ended up paying more money for worse quality. It says 1080p, but all of my Blue Ray movies never hit that realistic finish I'd become used to on my old set. The quality is good, but not good enough to justify this as a 1080p tv.
The sound is the worst I've seen. It's too low, and when raised, makes the worst noises ever. Needless to say I'll be returning this for yet another television.
