The good: Extensive picture adjustments; accurate color; built-in DVD player; uniform screen.
The bad: Competing LCDs produce a darker shade of black; off-angle performance is disappointing; standard definition performance could be better.

Fantastic TV - Great Price!
by PezSiv on June 22, 2008
Pros: Sharp picture, good color contrast, deep blacks. Glossy stand matches gloss of TV frame. Controller has large number buttons for easy viewing.
Cons: Bottom of TV is a deep crimson color (as is half of the back of the TV), which may not match with all homes decorating schemes. No inputs on side or front of TV for easy plug-in.
Summary: Circuit City had this TV listed at $949.99 as of June 21. I received a 10% off coupon in the mail from Circuit City and they honored it toward ...
Summary: Circuit City had this TV listed at $949.99 as of June 21. I received a 10% off coupon in the mail from Circuit City and they honored it toward the purchase of the TV. Final cost? $855.00. For an 32" LCD w/ built in DVD player, that is a great deal! Haven't had any problems with it so far. Love the menu layout in-screen.
Also, the TV will swivel 20 degrees left or right on the stand for easy adjustment of the viewing area. Looks great in a brightly lit room. Sound quality could be a bit louder for me, but that is a minor qualm. My experience with LCDs is that most don't have loud speakers because the ones built in are so tiny.
Love it and would buy again!1 out of 1 users found this user opinion helpful.

Good TV watch out for some of the bugs
by sksmonk on April 18, 2009
Pros: Great Picture and like the fact of 3 HDMI slots. The remote is nice lots of features on it. The menus are really easy to read and understand. Overall its awesome.
Cons: Dvd player that comes with it I have had issues with it deciding to not read after the tv had been moved. or a cd was not ejected properly..
Summary: Bottom line its worth it just with out the DVD player. I thought that the DVD player was going to play @ 720P and it does not its 480i so honestly ...
Summary: Bottom line its worth it just with out the DVD player. I thought that the DVD player was going to play @ 720P and it does not its 480i so honestly that was the most depressing thing about it. Also I forgot to mention the Stand Its Awesome too

If you are buying this TV for the Built in DVD...Don't!
by JAS813 on February 1, 2009
Pros: Good picture quality. Nice idea....but....the Cons
Cons: Built in DVD is awful, it is loud and chattering when playing movies, had a tech come out and replace the DVD unit....still sounds bad...and now it has sucked in a DVD and won't eject it! Don't know what they will say now? P.S. The speakers are BAD!
Summary: If you are buying this TV for the Built in DVD don't bother, you will not be happy! It is turning out to be a nightmare getting it fixed. ...

Great choice for a 2ND TV
by c5allaxy on November 30, 2008
Pros: Cant beat the price, with BUILT IN DVD, and Progressive scan "up-conversion", and just the right number/avalible inputs.
Cons: Standard Def. picture quality is a'bit sad. I found sometimes when on a HD channle, it can be abit slow navigating thru the menu screens.
Summary: Great choice for a "Bedroom/Guest" TV, price plus options equal perfect buy!

Great picture and controls to customize the video.
by generet on November 9, 2008
Pros: Good looking and greta video.
Cons: Audio is sub-par from DVD. Low strength from DVD audio but TV audio is OK. The strenghth of the DVD audio dosen't make it. Even with a surround sound the DVD audio is sub par.
Summary: Based upon the priice I paid online, I'm realtively satisfied. But the DVD is a disapointment.
