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.

    Sounds quality from sound bar is crisp and the wireless subwoofer is very deep and powerful. The user interface is horrible and it will even turn a "compatibl" 4K Vizio Tv off for no reason...

    No complaints about the sound from this soundbar. The thin subwoofer is adequate and I was able to hide it from view. I'm not overly impressed with the Smartcast, but that wasn't my reason for buying it, so I'm ok with that.

    My son-in-law installed this for me just after Christmas. Ever since then the sound cuts out on some channels. It's installed correctly; in fact, a Xfinity tech reinstalled it because we got a new cable box...sound still cuts out. The sound test indicates all speakers are working. I called Vizio and didn't get anywhere with them. When it does work, it's great. I wish we could get this corrected. I'm about ready to take it back.

    Pros: Easy to setup, sounds great, it looks nice under the tv. Cons: I have the sound bar connect in the ARC HDMI port and sometimes the sound bar turns on but no sounds. I have to turn the TV off and back on then it is fine

    I love how slim this soundbar and subwoofer is. The subwoofer fits under the sofa.. The sound is beyond AMAZING. You don't really need a back left and right speaker with this. I would totally recommend. Its also easy to clean because the set is not covered with fabric. I think the speaker is plastic.
