Second day went south.....

I bought my Vizio based on my previous purchases for my home. The other TVs set up and run was easy and functional off the first time turned on. On the current TV the set up and run was easy and functional for the first day. The second day the TV got stock in a loop and would not load. I followed the instructions to reboot, reinstall, check internet, etc. but the same issue when you turn on the TV it gets into a loop. If I do a full system wash and set up the TV again, it works for one day then on the next time it gets turned on the TV gets stuck in the upload loop. My other Vizio is 15 feet away in the next room and it works fine so the internet is not the issue.

I will be returning this

I bought this a week or 2 ago and it all works great except it does not receive local channels even with a digital antenna. I will be returning this for another brand. This model should have a warning label on the box as alot of people might not have the time to return it

Awesome TV

we had this brand in our lunchrooms in the foundry where I worked, plus we had 2 in the plant and they worked flawlessly for many years, we finally removed the 2 that were in the plant by the machines due to the fact they would get so dusty that you couldn’t see them anyway. They still work perfectly after being in that environment . Sold me on the brand.

Some good features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the features and apps but it’s way too hard to turn on to regular cable. Also, a couple of times it just turned off while I was watching then I had to redo the cable channel search. That was frustrating.

Not a fan of Bull puckeyCompanies are doing

I bought a TV to enjoy the TV...Not so you could have my personal info and Destroy my solace with your incessant Push Notices, Emails, SMS. I dont want your 3rd party friends to be sending crap either. No interest in signing up for a home warranty that includes my appliances (and amazingly TVs). I AM NOT A FAN!

this is a well thought out TV has great technology

I have been buying Vizio TVs for the last 10 years. I just bought this one for my office. You can’t beat the value of a Vizio. I am a technical geek, and I always look for the quality in technology in products. The Vizio TVs are well thought out technically they are easy to use and have high picture quality when people ask me what TV they should buy? I always say Vizio because they will never be disappointed. I’m very happy with my new Vizio TV. It was so easy to update the OS and all the apps in it. That’s a big plus.

Menu system is upsales dung heap...not suitable

I bought this for my aging mother with the soundbar due to her decreased hearing...and the menu system had her in tears because it is xinvilut3d counterintuitive overwhelming and defaults to selling third party services payper.view etc. Turns out the sound bar did not attach to this tv so she was upset by a pile of additional cords. The hone screen is filled with a third party add. The primary default menu row is 100% third party purchases. The middle row is mostly third party services. And the tiny little third row is the actual menu choices. I tried to make the TV user friendly for her...but guess what. The stupid thing kept doing it's default...or would not permit me to attach to internet. Vizio needs to add an easy to find reliable setting to default to an easy yi use and navigate menu system for the elderly and impaired (and not some child setting that they have now which requires a pin for.evwry time and impaired adult wants to watch an pg 13 or R movie. I am ashamed of Visio for trying to take advantage of click baiting it's customers.

Remote issues

I have had this TV for 3 months and i have been disappointed with it from day one. I had to replace the Remote already and now the replacement is having issues. I changed from a TV with internal storage to this Vizo. I wish I had not. I wanted a cheap TV and that is exactly what i got. Be careful what you wish for.

Higher Expectations

After doing a little research I made the decision to purchase this tv to replace my 15 year old flat screen. So far I don’t love it. It’s been glitchy, shutting off or just freezing in the middle of a program. The remote also doesn’t have a voice recognition feature to more easily search for titles. If given another choice I’d go with a different tv knowing what I’ve experienced now.

Picture is good but the initial setup was a pain.

We moved to Firestick for our TVs so we had to buy a new smart tv. The picture is good but the setup was very frustrating as they require you to download their app to complete it and the process was very buggy and cumbersome. Took me an hour to get it done.
