Wow this tv has a very clear picture

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We just purchased this TV as a replacement for a older Vizio. The setup took some time, but it has a fast Wi-Fi connection, and the picture is crisp. It was missing the screws for the legs, so we took the screws off the old TV, and they fit. The box was sealed and factory-sealed, so the screws were left out at the manufacturing plant. We would buy again.

Great budget TV (43" Smart FHD 1080P)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 1 hr to setup. The remote buttons aren't that great; Its not an intuitive config. Picture quality is good. Sound for this cheaper system is not very good. I'm not complaining because the price was a good deal.

Very disappointed with online ordering

I tried to order this TV for same day delivery. It appears that I entered it incorrectly and then tried again and succeeded. The 1st TV was delivered the same day. Several days later a second TV was delivered, and I refused it. I did not sigh that I received it and asked the delivery person to return it to the appropriate place. I was then billed for both TVs. I tried to reach Sam Club's customer service. I spoke with a person who told me to contact Sam's Club.com for further help. I now have one TV< and a bill for 2 that I am expected to pay. I am very displeased with the online version of ordering any products and will never do this again.

Picture is bright

The picture setting and picture size are not as they used to be. 43 inch picture should be 43 not half the screen, and the only way to get the picture full screen is to go wide to distract the picture, and the color of the picture could not be set correctly. Vizio is not the same any more

new tv + setup

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought tv's because we wanted smart tv's to replace some that were a couple years old. Prices were good, and by returning cable boxes that will pay for the tv's in a short time.Easy setup from on screen instructions.

Acceptable replacement

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Acceptable replàcement for the Vizio that lost its picture. Same size, and feet fit the space. It lacks several features that the other Vizio had, though. For one thing, no rca inputs for connecting all my video players. For another, one usb port (like the D) that seems to serve no function, as there's no way to select that input from the menu. And no choices for aspect ratio, and no individual color controls for balance, just right to left color and tint scales. Same for adjusting sound balance I was accustomed to adjusting reds, blues, gredns, etc separately. Theoretically same resolution and a few years newer, but overall I'd say inferior to the D. Anyway, size being an essential factor, options are limited. Fortunately, I still have three functioning decades old crts with excellent pictures and sound quality when I want to really enjoy watching movies and such. Recommending? Well, if someone had the same size restrictions, sure, I'd recommend it.

Not a good experience.

Hate this tv. Purchased quickly for my 92 year old father. He has such a hard time keeping the tv on regular antenna that I had to purchase a separate remote and tape it up so only the up and down channel will work. We just leave the tv on 24/7. It has not been pleasant.

Difficult to use. Too complicated

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If all you wanna do, is simply watch your local channel 5 news, you can’t do it because this TV only wants you to watch movies or shows that it’s promoting. You cannot add an app if it’s not on their list of apps.
