Simply would not work with my Samsung TV. Bit of a pain that it doesn't come with it's own remote. Now i've got it hooked to a TV that is never watched because SAMS Club would accept a return. Spent a lot of time on the phone with VIZIO support, who were very helpful but to no avail.

I installed this device for use with my TCL 65" Roku TV. The out-of-box sound was dark with too much bass. Because my TV is not a Vizio, an app had to be downloaded to my phone in order to control sound parameters. There is no dedicated remote, nor are the appropriate controls on the device. The connection to the app is unstable, and equalization must be reset each time the device is powered off and on. When finally connected and adjusted for proper equalization, the device produces a great theater-like sound powerful enough to put our Cockapoo in distress. I am returning the device. Control from the phone app is too problematic and work intensive. A novice with technology would have difficulty making the connections required. Hopefully, the device pairs better with a Vizio TV and does not require the app for control. I can recommend this product for owners of Vizio TVs only. If you own something other than a Vizio, look for a device that does not require downloading an app to your phone.

Seemed like a good value. upon trying to hook up, noticed it didn't meet the needs of my TV. swapped to a different TV, got everything hooked up to notice no remote and ARC settings do not allow for audio control through TV remote on non Vizio TV. soundbar is useless to me as it can only be controlled through a phone app. Before I buy a remote for the soundbar like Vizio wants you to do, I'll just buy a Soundbar that works like it should.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this for the price point at the time. Returned the 1st one due to tech problems. New one loses connection with its subs and side speakers often causing a reboot often. Sound is ok for the price. It's not in a main room of the house so it's fine.

I don't like it at all. I always buy Vizio products tvs, surround sound systems . my husband bought this for me for my birthday to replace our older model Vizio surround sound system. First it doesn't come with a remote you have to download an app and it doesn't work half the time and now today after only 2 months subwoofer and back speakers stopped working won't connect to center speaker ..(tried everything ,unplugged all of it and still nothing).... I'm so tired of wasting time messing with this junk I unhooked and hooked old one back up to tv and what a difference surround working great again and have a remote !!!!!

Great sound for a good deal

My husband wanted this for the small living room downstairs and it works great!

Sound is good was easy to set up.

Great surround sound and great bass from the subwoofer!

Very easy to connect to a Vizio TV. It immediately recognized it and went to work. I would buy again. Easy to connect.
