    Great! December 31, 2008

    I have had no problems with my t.v. It was actually delivered a little sooner than expected and I had no problem hooking it up. I've used it with my computer to play games with my daughter and it displays and works perfectly when used with my computer. The picture is amazing and I've had no issues with it. I am very pleased with my t.v and the picture is absolutely crystal clear. The price was more than reasonable!!

    Good Luck with this TV November 22, 2010

    We purchased our set back in 2008 during black Friday. It worked great....until recently. One night we turned it on to watch a show and the volume was stuck on 50 (the highest point)! The remote would not work, the side panel volume would not work. In fact nothing worked, except the on/off switch. We unplugged the tv for a few hours, plugged it back up and the volume was still stuck on 50. After several troubleshooting options, we just figured we would have to get it repaired. We decided to leave it unplugged overnight. The following day we plugged it in and it was back to normal. We could change channels as well as adjust the volume from both the remote and side panel. After a couple of months, I was watching a show and the TV changed to PC mode, in the middle of a movie. Well I checked the remote I could not change anything once again. I checked the side panel, and once again I couldn't change anything. So as of now, it is still stuck on PC mode. Now, we have to either purchase an extended warranty for another $100 bucks, pay for a repair, or scrap it and buy a better tv.
