Samsung - HL-T5075S 50 in. HDTV Television — 

I actually won our Samsung 50" HDTV television so I feel awkward complaining about it but I must be truthful.  We received it brand new and fully packaged.  The first year the TV was grand and worked just fine.  Than we moved out of our former residence and I'm not sure what exactly happened but when we set up the TV in our new home we only got a half screen of picture with sound.  Only had this very pricey television for  a year,  we were still covered under the original manufacturer's warranty so they came out and upon examination said that they would have to order a new part.  It took close to a few months to have them come out and replace the part once it came.  The Samsung repairman told us that this particular model was very sensitive to moving.  By the time He got it back up and running...we were grateful to have our television back.  Roughly around six months after this, my husband was getting ready to watch a baseball game when the television  screen turned black.  So now we have no picture with sound.  Again, we contact a Samsung representative to come out.  This time the problem is with the DLP TV Lamp which is not covered by the warranty and retails for a couple hundred dollars.  We order the part which took a few weeks to come and when my husband installs...the tv still doesn't work.  Needless to say, our Samsung  HD is now sitting in the garage.  We have since replaced it.  Hardly worth the cost for under 3 years of service.
