Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the SmartCast™ 3.1-Channel Soundbar System's sound quality, with many praising its unexpectedly great sound despite its compact size. The subwoofer is also a hit, with users appreciating the strong bass it delivers. Setup is a breeze, and the price point is seen as excellent for the value offered. On the downside, some users have experienced connectivity issues, particularly with Bluetooth, and there have been complaints about the remote control not functioning properly.

    Don't expect the highest end sound out of this unit but it's a decent item without breaking the bank.

    It’s ok if you don’t want to deal with surround system. Good sound. Dialog is not as clear as 5.1 models. But overall add good sounds to tv

    I bought this when I caught it on sale and I would have paid full price for it. Well worth the money and the subwoofer does exactly as it should! Highly recommend.

    Owned this for a few months now. Sound quality is great, connects via HDMI ARC which basically allows you to control sound with your TV remote (or AppleTV remote if you have one, that uses ARC as well) so you don't need to have a million different remotes. A little tricky to set up but once you do it works like a charm. Also connects via Bluetooth if you want to just connect your phone to play music or something which was definitely a needed feature for me. Also comes with wall mounting hardware which was super easy to use. Overall very happy with this purchase.

    This item does what it's supposed to do. It makes sound. The sub is short, so fit under my very low Swedish box store bed. Very easy to install and setup.

    Great sound bar, perfect for my 70 inch! Wireless subwoofer is an awesome fit near my couch! No more movie theatres for me! Unless a worthy movie comes out that's worth the big money for a movie ticket!

    We enjoy the sound bar. It does echo when we stream on Netflix or Hulu, but we can't tell if that's the device or the connection...

    Pretty Big Sound

    VIZIO- SmartCast is delivering a pretty broad sound spectrum for my music. I would like to be able to drop out a little more treble and pump bass up a little more- this would move my rating to 5 stars. Still playing with controls and positioning. Nevertheless, a good sound from this unit at a fair price.

    Got this so I could move the smaller one I had upstairs. Sounds a lot better than I expected and that flat sub is a great space saver.

    Great replacement for any subwoofer system; cheap, big boom for your buck, and the slim subwoofer is perfect for positioning beneath the entertainment center beneath the TV.
