    I brought this TV last year in July '21. It is now Dec '22 and the back lights went out. Do not buy, The repairs cost the same as buying a new tv. I do not recommend this TV. Best Buy owns this brand & they are cheaply made.

    Not a regular tv. I bought this online by mistake. Does not allow me to have regular channels. Just an Amazon Fire set up. Very basic and disappointing, however if you live the Amazon Fire system this is great for you. But for the price , I could have gotten a regular smart TV that has more options to do more. I can’t even use my spectrum TV app on this and not my ATT TV APP either.

    Tv screen went out after approximately 18 months. Only had a 1 year warranty. Was told I would have to pay at least $125 for a visit plus parts. It was the newest tv in my home. So disgusted at the wasted money on this.

    Excellent image and operation but after three months it stopped working for no reason, there were no shocks or short circuits. Almost the entire screen appears black for no apparent reason and only a small strip can be seen at the top. It's sad because I liked this screen

    Although I have purchased Insignia brand in the past with no issues this model was not the best. It worked for 9 months before the screen went out. Luckily it was within the warranty period and Best Buy was able to exchange it for another model.

    This is the worst tv brand I have ever dealt with. It's the second time I've returned this brand. The customer service was terrible on trying to either fix it or exchange it. I would never buy from here again.

    Came broken. Went to the store and they said they couldn’t do anything about it. Because I didn’t purchase the geek squad. Regardless of that I received it damaged not like I’m gonna open it at the store and make sure it’s not broken (which next time I just might). Oh well it’s not their money right?

    When it worked it was a really nice TV. However, at 17 months old, the screen went black. I tried every hint on google to get it back up and running, but ended up having to call the geek squad. Also, the remote had to be replaced a couple times because it stopped working

    The TV was wrapped in plastic and had its screen exposed when I came to pick it up curbside. Within a few weeks, the tv picture becomes distorted and starts shaking making you feel like you’re about to have a seizure. So sick of these retailers blatantly ripping me off it’s not okay…

    This tv is great EXCEPT it regularly randomly has wavy lines all across it. It's unpredictable and very annoying. It started after only a few months, and of course was out of warranty. Total waste of money.
