    I got this TV on sale for $349. At that price, this TV was a great deal. The only problem I had was a manufacturer defect that manifested after about a week of usage: a big white cloud-looking spot that covered maybe 30% of the screen. Defect's can happen with any manufacturer though, and I was able to just exchange the TV at any Best Buy so not too bad. Defect aside, the TV works great, picture is good, sound is good. I mostly play games on it and have had no issues. 3 HDMI ports and a USB port was a win for me. I use it in my living room which is not too large but well lit. This is my 3rd Insignia TV and I haven't been disappointed yet.

    We bought this TV to replace our projection model that finally went out. The TV came out of the box and was completely programmed and ready to go in 30 minutes. It has an impressive number and type of connections and is currently on composite, recommended as the best picture from our cable provider to their HD/DVR. However, when we power the system on in the morning, we have to turn the TV on and then off again and back on in order for the picture to come through without being "frozen". Would recommend if you're on a budget, but if you have the wherewithal I'd say spend a little more and buy a "name brand".

    Not a High-End Living Room TV, but ideal elsewhere

    We upgraded our Master Bedroom TV from an old Insignia 32" and love the size of this one. It's a great size for a "typical" room, but I don't know that I would use anything this size for a Living Room (have a 56" there now and this would definitely feel "too" small after having something that size). I was really impressed with the speakers; we have a newborn and try to keep the volume low and having it as low as "1" or "2" for the volume level provided really good audio clarity. The built-in speakers do quite well. As far as any negative, the picture quality just leaves something to be desired in my opinion. The Samsung DLP we have in the living room just seems so much more crisp (and it is 7 years old). While we haven't had any issue with blurring (yay for great refresh rate) the expected High Definition just doesn't seem great. Seeing people and actual objects in HD seems a bit "water color" like (blended/smeared in some of the coloring). Animations and CGI do look great though... Think about putting on Sports Center and seeing the intro graphics and being impressed, only then to see some of the people look a little less than impressive (and I don't mean that in association to their actual physical appearance).The wife doesn't seem to mind (and yes, we did have to manually change our satellite box to play with the right resolution) and, other than the somewhat lacking picture, the TV has been great. We're happy with the size and sound quality, but just can't believe that seven years of HD improvements don't seem to have made much difference in this TV. For the price, a good deal and if you aren't a "videophile", you probably won't even notice the picture (the wife doesn't).

    Overall, a good unit & works well... auto aspect ratio feature adequate 99% of the time, although every once in a while I have to manually select an appropriate aspect ratio depending on the signal from the broadcast station... A little disappointing that there is no on-screen program guide for those of us using an antenna for digital broadcast reception - the old digital converter that I used w/ my old analog TV provided an on-screen guide, but not so w/ this unit... Picture quality is very good, plus I connect the audio output of the TV to a spare audio input on my Yamaha 5.1 receiver for more than adequate audio quality... I also connect a laptop (w/ wireless internet) to the VGA & audio inputs of this unit & watch a great deal of YouTube & similar content... The component inputs are "shared" w/ composite/audio inputs (i.e., one set of input connectors), so one has to choose to use either the component output of a DVD player, or the composite/audio output of a VCR (yes, some of us still watch old VHS content)... a tad frustrating, but again, still a good value for the money... So far, I'm pleased w/ this purchase - very good value for the money...

    I originally was looking to get another Samsung tv for my living room and ended up finding this tv on sale. After looking at the picture quality I actually found that I preferred this tv over the others in the store. It's a great tv for the price. It has more hdmi inputs then the comparable models, which was an added plus. It was easy to setup and in very happy with my purchase. The only feature which I wish was different is the tv base; it's stationary and therefore doesn't swivel.

    I bought the tv for my mom for Christmas and she couldn't be happier. She loves the picture, size, and sound of the TV. But it's my mom she can't notice the subtle differences. The size is great, and the sound is okay compared to sound of my surround sound. I enjoy the features but I can't describe about the picture quality because doesn't have any HD channels or any HD devices in her house. But overall good TV for the price.

    Nice upgrade from my 26" Insignia. Wanted a bigger tv for our large living room. The sound is impressive with the acoustics in our room. Dont even need surround. Insignia makes good quality products for reasonable pricing.

    The overall quality of this LCD HDTV is outstanding, and the price is reasonable. The power up is quick, the picture is vivid, and the sound is great. Plenty of inputs including 3 HDMI inputs. Only downside is the low refresh rate, not ideal for gaming and streaming.

    This is a sweat spot for me in television in the bedroom, it's been 5 years since I've had this, and the viewing angles are good. Now I'm looking for smart TVs, until I find a really good one this one will be in my room in between time. I hope insignia choose a new OS for their smart TVs because I don't like the Roku remote that comes with it.

    Bought this on T-day, low 300's price. Delivery from BB was fast. Had to adjust the picture settings to turn off the energy saving mode because it was causing the picture to fade out on black screens. I drive this tv through a multimedia pc which is also hooked to a good sound system so I don't use it for anything more then a big monitor to watch tv shows and movies. It works perfect for that task. One thing I'll be interested in seeing is that I bought the tv to keep at my weekend farm, BOL, which I do not keep heated when no one is there. I will be interesting to see how it survives the freezing temps of winter. That was one reason I went with BB as the warranty was equal to other brands but easier to use if needed. nike

    Picked this up on the Black Friday sale. For the price you can't beat the TV. It doesn't have wifi or extra features, but it has a decent picture and decent sound. We use it for a bedroom and it works great.

    Bought one for son-in-law and daughter for Christmas because we have had one since summer and we are very happy with it. You can certainly spend more for bells and whistles, but it's great if you just watch television and don't necessarily need to "experience" it.

    TV works great, has a really good picture. I didn't need "smart" technology since I use Apple TV on all my installations. Price was terrific. Has an odor even when not in use which I am told will gradually go away as it gets used more.

    This product can't be beat for the price. Picture and sound quality are both comparable to other TV's i have looked at costing twice as much. Just read the reviews, adjust your settings and this unit is awesome.

    the price is a bargain!!! I like picture quality of this TV a lot. Also I like 3 HDMI inputs, 1 VGA input and optical audio output so I can feed it to my audio system. I didn't care about internet features since most of DVD players have them so no need for duplicating. The only thing missing would be 3D but money saving will buy you lots of tickets to the theater ;)

    I really like this TV that my wife and I got for our bedroom. We needed something big enough to be seen from the bed but not too big to overpower the room. We also did not want to spend a lot of extra money. We got a really great picture and good value for the money. We bought a set of bluetooth headphones so one of us can watch while the other sleeps. Love this. Only drawback is that it does not have bluetooth built in so we need to use a bluetooth adapter

    We were looking for a new budget-friendly TV for our small living room. This TV doesn't have any fancy features, but the picture delivers. We use streaming boxes, Blu-ray players and other devices for our web-connected video so a smart TV wasn't a priority for us. This TV looks great in our room. It's easy to operate, and the picture quality is good. There's one thing I've noticed: the local dimming to enhance black levels is sometimes a bit jumpy. A good example is when there is a black screen and rolling white credits. As the white scrolls, the blacks won't always stay true black. For me, that's a minor inconvenience for a good TV with a good picture.
