 Vizio is hit or miss for a Lemon (2.5 stars) December 17, 2008
I bought this 32 inch for $600 at Costco - which is a reasonable price for the size. I was weary about purchasing from the Vizio brand since they're known for being the 'budget-minded' flat-screen maker - but my cousin had the same model for the past 2 years and is pleased with the quality for the price. Of course it's not a high-end maker, but I wanted to use the LCD primarily as a computer monitor.
That said - I took home a lemon that required a service tech to come out and replace the motherboard within the 2nd month of owning the TV. After that - the exact same issue went unresolved 3 weeks later (black areas started turning neon-green again). I eventually had to pay shipping out-of-pocket to send the TV back to Vizio - where they then made clear in the purchase agreement that they will replace the TV with a refurbished one - and also only honor the remaining time left on the original purchase warranty or up to 90 days if the warranty is already expiring (1 year from the original TV purchase) i.e. they can replace the TV with a used refurbished one that they won't stand behind like they would a new one (The original TV didn't even last 2 months - which still worries me with this refurb)
Bottom line: I paid full price for a new TV and ended up with a refurb. So beware with Vizio. Cheap price = cheap parts, no money for quality assurance, and no high-end features/picture quality - but that's the risk you take when you have better Vegas odds with a Toshiba or Samsung, etc. in avoiding a lemon and getting nicer features, but have to pay more money upfront.
So far, the refurb functions nicely as a computer monitor and occasional TV - but what a shame to pay full-price for a new TV and end up with a used one - and also go through the multiple headaches of trying to either get it fixed, or replaced when you simply just bought the darn thing.
All in all - I'm okay with my decision because I couldn't justify purchasing a nice Samsung LCD to be used for a computer monitor - I knew the risks and odds when I made the purchase and spent what I wanted to spend for the screen size and quality - it's just too bad that I rolled the dice and came out with a loss - but still hoping that I can come out ahead if this thing doesn't crap out on me for several years. *Knock on wood*
 No real cons September 19, 2008
After alot of research and waiting for deals on tvs. I found this tv in a great online deal, I read some reviews some good and some bad. It was $415 w/ free shipping so I had to jump on the deal! Its a great tv of course its not the best quality but for the price, its amazing. I bought it refurbished so it does have 2 dead pixels, but you literally can't even notice it unless your a couple of inches away from the screen, and I pointed it out. If you don't have cable, you can buy an HDTV antenna and pick up your local channels in HD as well as alot of new channels, I picked up about 25 new channels when I bought my HDTV antenna.
Its awesome watching HD movies in Blu-ray with my PS3 and playing games as well. The sound is normal, if your getting an HDTV you should probably also invest in a sound system as well though. I love that it has PIP and also you can alternate the audio from the PIP from the main screen and the PIP screen, its a neat little feature.
I read a couple reviews a while back that said the tv died after 6 months, which was almost enough for me to not buy this tv. Well I did and its been one of the best purchases I've made, and I definitely enjoy this TV better then my old 32" crt, which took alot of space and added alot of heat to my room, not to mention they use more electricity as well.
Well despite those reviews I bought this tv, and I have had it since June of 2006. Its been 1 year and 3 months and I don't regret buying this tv at all. I love this tv. Like one of the other reviewers said, Don't pay over $600 for this TV. At that price you can buy something a bit better. But don't be put off by Vizio just because they are not name brand.
PS: The remote is pretty good too and doesn't use too much battery, Im still using the original batteries that came with the TV.

Purchased this VIZIO 32" LCD/HDTV from an independent dealer on March 19, 2008,and was blown away. Setup was quick and simple. Less than quality picture on regular analog sdtv, but viewable. Looking forward to upgrading to HD cable. Once I hooked it to my pS2 and toshiba HD DVD player on the 1080i setting,the picture and sound was totally awesome. Receive a few on the air HD channels;reception great! My regular DVD videos are crisp and clear. Absolutely recommend to anyone who's in the market for an lcd hdtv of this magnitude: great new name,product and value. Will defintely buy VIZIO again!

I have owned this TV for about 9 months now and it is great. Very nice picture with Digital Cable and the HD channels looks amazing. I bought this from costco and paid around 650 for last thanksgiving. My parents have a high end Panasonic plazma and this was considerably cheaper but the picture and quality is only a little less, very good value. I would buy again from Vizio.
