Good value for bedroom or spare viewing TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good value for what it is. For me; that's a TV in a spare BR that I will set up for 'pop up viewing' in a secondary room once in a while. I have noticed that the home screen won't have all the buttons/features upon wake up; this would be fixed if they would just allow you to actually power the TV off w/o unplugging it. I'm not sure why manufacturers love this sleep mode so much but at least others allow you to fully power off. This one doesn't leading to pretty frequent wake up glitches that require an unplug anyway. I give this TV 4 stars only b/c I hardly use it; I'm sure if it was frequently used, it would go down to 1 or 2 stars.

Good Deal
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quality item. Good picture for a smaller TV and wont break the bank. Not a huge fan of the "Fire" system but im learning. Only think i dont like really, that its not a Roku system or it would be perfect for a bedroom type TV.

WiFiTVTrap
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new rules of an OTA (Over The Air) Television needing an [Internet] connection to work properly is ludicrous. I enjoy the advancements in technology, but the whole purpose of getting a {TV}, and not just an oversized *Computer Monitor * was and is the opportunity to financially cut the link to corporate greed of a continual passive aggressive marketing campaign and strategies to promote a mindset of keeping their hands in your banking pockets. OTA was built for the US to have a public service of national communication in a time of need from a country that should be above the third world nations. That being said it is still a very good TV just by itself without all of the other bells and whistles that it brings to the table. My only complaint is that without an internet connection, it feature set is pretty limited.

It's a complicated situation
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am giving this TV 3 starts because prior to the screen going out, it would have been 5 stars. We bought this TV In June of 2025. It is now February 2026. The screen is going out (black picture with horizontal lines in 4 places on the screen. I was able to get the picture back by doing a hard reset for about an hour before it went out again. Prior to this happening it worked great. I was very pleased with the quality of the TV. I am not happy about having to replace the TV, but overall it was a good TV. I would probably buy it again.
