No Subtitles, Avoid if you have hearing issues

Do not purchase this TV if you have hearing disabilities!
The menu button on the fire TV remote does not work so I cannot turn on subtitles or access the other menu features. None of the suggestions in a google search have worked and the Insignia help desk solution of checking for a system update does not work. The accessibility settings tab on the home screen only applies to videos.
This appears to be a systemic problem across the Insignia Fire TV line. I also purchased two 24" Fire TV's and have the same problem with the menu tab which does not work. Avoid these models if you have a hearing disability.

The backlight stopped working after a year and 8 months, the warranty is only good for 12 months. This TV was in my home gym and so it only saw moderate to low use as compared to other TVs in my home. Needless to say I will refrain from purchasing any Insignia televisions and recommend everyone else does as well.

Just over a month since purchase and the entire right side is now looking like a "green screen". No accident caused this - one minute watching it and all was fine - the next green screen - ugh

We purchased 2 TVs, and a DVD. Had a salesman that was no one we ever want again. Discouraged us from purchasing TV's that I felt we good ones and wound up with not great ones. Never again.

Picture quality is not as good as some previous insignia TVs that I purchased. However the other ones were 39 inch TVs and I think the smaller size gave me a better picture

Couldn’t use the tv as it was missing the power cable, the remote, and didn’t even have the user’s manual. Really disappointed.

I wanted to wait to use and view my Insignia a couple of months more before writing this review. I was in hopes that it would change to a positive experience.
However, unfortunately, it has not.

There is something super wonky about this TV. Certain programs that are shadowy/dark, the screen seems to get wobbly with waves.
