After extensive researching value and features and testing soundbars at the store, I believe this one is a great buy. At the store, the Vizio soundbars provided the more/ better spacial / stereo separation sound. There is another Vizio soundbar 2.0 that comes with the wireless subwoofer but does not have HDMI input so, despite having a good sound an value, when playing blu-rays it won't be able to handle as better as other soundbars with HDMI (ARC). Now, this 3.0 soundbar DOES HAVE HDMI (ARC) Input, which makes the connection to your Tv a breeze and is future proof to handle all sound features from modern movies, versus the 2.0 soundbar with only optical. The other reason I got it is because had an extra center channel for voice and a Subwoofer connection in the back, so you can add one later on, which is what I did. I bought the POLK 10" Subwoofer for only $99 from Bestbuy, normally sells for $199, so I recommend keep looking on the website and get it as soon as goes on sale. Don't trust Bestbuy sales associates, at first they told me I was not going to able to add an active sub to my soundbar which turned out to be untrue. If you can buy this sound bar for $99 and the sub for another $99 which I did, I believe will be a great deal. Now, I need to clarify that I am aware the sub is super big for this soundbar, but the way I see it, I can always, later on, get a better soundbar or better, more powerful speakers to go with this HUGE subwoofer, but for now, both products make my bedroom shake. The Subwoofer is so powerful I had to lower its input, but despite that, both, the soundbar and sub complement each other very well. PLEASEEEE......Be aware Bestbuy sells 2 models of the Vizio 3.0 soundbar, one with 5 speakers which is this one and one with only 3 speakers, obviously get the one with 5. Read the description on the website. My only issue with the soundbar is the difficulty of pairing via Bluetooth with my iPhone 7. But if you use Spotify, you won't have any problem casting your signal to the bar.

Bass response needs improvement. Owners manual needs major improvement. Hookup is straight forward. Overall, satisfied with my purchase.

Brought cause my 24” TV in the back room. When it came to certain not all but certain shows it just was cutting it with the volume to the point I couldn’t make out the words on some shows. That problem is now gone and the fact that this one has the hdmi port makes it very easy to hook up to TV esp the one’s that don’t have a optical jack port. I can hear every show and movie great when using TV now. the TV is a vizio too so there like brother and sister lol

This soundbar adds great sound and the sleek design makes it look like it's a part of the tv.

Ordered in a pre-Black Friday sale and did a in-store pick-up. Because of an illness getting around has been a struggle, but this can't soundbar easy enough to get in the car on my own. It's also pretty simple to setup. When I got home it took me less than 15 minutes to get all setup to my TV and paired to my phone. Sound quality is good and a nice addition to my bedroom TV. This was an impulse buy because of the price, but after a few weeks I don't regret it.
