Good TV good product
We bought this TV within the past year and have enjoyed it since. I have developed eye problems that make it difficult for me to see detail from a distance so we got this tv hoping it will be big and clear enough that I would be able to still watch tv without having to get too close to the set. It is sitting all the way across the room (my bedroom so not a small room but nothing like a huge living room either) and I am able to sit in bed and watch tv with minimal issue on my better days. I can not nor will I blame the tv for my inability to see on my worst days but for what it is the tv is great. Better than I expected even. I had thought I would not be able to watch tv again with out squinting and eye strain but with the large (not ridiculously large though) screen it is clear and easy to see even details that I had not noticed before. I did not want something so huge that that it was going to cost more than my house note. Yet I needed something large enough that I would still be able to see the pictures from across the room with how bad my eyes have gotten and possibly getting worse. The 38in screen was perfect and I was thrilled when I found this one on sale at best buy for around 700ish. It was being replaced with a newer model and this was the floor model they were selling for almost two hundred off the box price and so we were able to take it home for 650 after all the rebates were done and pleased with how clear and easy to see and hear it is. We also love that it is able to plug our computer into it and watch things on the large screen with the family instead of all of us having to crowd around the small laptop screen. Picture Quality clear, colors are great even a year after buying it everything works great. We see details we never saw in all the other tvs we had before. Even better than some of our older computer monitors. Sound Quality good sound speakers do not give off any crackle or ring even after a year or more since we bought it even with it being a floor model. I also like how big a sound range it has so you can make it anywhere from silent to rather loud if you choose. Durability it seems to be very durable and very well made. For a floor model it has held up over a year without any problems. I took one point off for how the stand that holds it up is made because I worry that it will break any day down. For honesty sake it has NOT broken and has held up against kids and cats *even after being a floor model* but I do think it could be made better and with a more stable stand. Design I think the design is great all except for what I said before the stand that holds it up. That is I worry that it will not hold up for more than another year or so. we are very very careful around it for fear of it breaking and I would not suggest getting this type of tv if you have small children or say... Dogs. Or perhaps if you do, try mounting it up on a wall somewhere that would likely take away the problem of the less than stable looking base. But to be most honest it has held up here with us sitting on a dresser now for almost a year so good job. I just would not trust it around large dogs or small kids. Performance So far so good. almost a year and being a floor model it has performed wonderfully and held up to stresses of older kids and cats. It has a great picture and sound and I am able to see it even with my ailing eye troubles. I would suggest it and feel comfortable giving my vote of yes it is worth buying to my loved ones and friends if asked. good job.
