    LG Gets my vote, and $$$$

    By Mike  Jan 30, 2007 | 6 out of 6 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: Best HD picture I've seen at this price!

    Cons: No big deal, but I wish it had 2 HDMI inputs.

    What a fantastic television!! I bought mine the week before Thanksgiving and I found this set for the amazingly low price of $1199 after rebates and discounts!! No other TV in this price range even comes close. The salesperson at the store was tryin...g to push me towards a comparable 42" Panasonic plasma, which was set up right next to this LG. He said the Panasonic has the best picture and color for the money... Ummm, I grew puzzled by his statement as I looked at the two sets side by side. The LG was much brighter and crisper and the colors looked vivid and warm. The "great" Panasonic's picture looked quite yellow overall, muddy even. My wife agreed completely and we brought home the LG. I later found that LG uses a special thin glass on their screens that maximizes light transmission, and it really works! It has a perfect picture in bright or dim lighting conditions. As you've probably heard before... let your own eyes be the judge of visual quality and I think you'll agree that LG is hard to beat. And 24 months parts and labor isn't too shabby either! Good luck!!! Read more Less

    Lg 42 in Plasma

    By El Hector  Sep 12, 2006 | 3 out of 4 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: Beautiful picture

    Cons: none yet

    I've had this Tv for 2 weeks now. I have nothing bad to say about it. Probably too early to tell, but I love my TV. Perfect size and amazing picture. Just got HD channels for it and I can barely watch normal TV now. Can't wait until all TV lo...oks as good as the HD channels do. Read more Less

    An Amazing Tv

    By Stanislav  Mar 31, 2007 | 2 out of 2 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: now with 2hdmi unputs

    Cons: Artifacts do occur with flashes and real close moving pictures

    This tv is absolutely amazing. Now all the fuss about not having 1080p is foolish and the reason for that is that its going to take at least 2 years to develop a standard for all plasma and 720p is just as good to the naked eye. Now this tv now with ...2 hdmi inputs is great. Briliant picture sharp and vivid with 95% free of artifaction. Buy this tv you will not regret it! Read more Less

    Stay away from all LG Products

    By Richard  Oct 31, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: nothing special to mention

    Cons: broke after 1 year, customer support is TERRIBLE

    The tv developed a bad picture after less then 1 year and I am having an incredibly hard time getting a replacement. Customer service cannot be reached in the afternoon, and when I left a message with the answering service I never got a callback. I w...ill never purchase another LG product, and if I get a replacement I am going to try my best to exchange the new unit for another brand. Read more Less

    just wait awhile

    By me  Jul 10, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: great picture and sound in HD channels

    Cons: screen blew out

    When we first got the tv we were really excited, the HD picture was great. Then after about 3 or 4 months the picture would randomly freeze up but eventually go back to normal. After the 8th month the screen just blew out for good. We only have th...e tv on for maybe 3-5 hours a day depending on if there is a game on. The dissapointment is in customer service. They are just like the cable company. "we can be there between 8 and noon." Most people work those hours. We fixed our work schedule to meet him and he needed another part so he had to schedule another appt but our jobs aren't so nice this time and we can't come now for another week or 2. We have had no plasma tv for over a month now and they will not give us a loaner tv or our money back. We greatly regret our choice of purchase. Read more Less

    Can't be beat

    By Pussim  Nov 30, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this LG 42PC3D review helpful

    Pros: great price/good features for entry level plasma

    Cons: can't think of any

    I paid 1499.00cdn for this set..and I can't find anything bad to say about it..when tuning in HD channels the picture is striking..the sound is excellent and it also has one HDMI input..not bad for an entry level plasma..

    I love this set!

    LG Customer Service SUCKS!!!!

    By MichealE  Apr 7, 2009

    Pros: TV actually worked for a year

    Cons: TV no longer works, nor can it be fixed

    To make a long story short, I purchased this TV a little over a year ago and it stopped working. No problem, I have a two year warranty right??? Wrong, big problem. LG has now had service technicians come to my house 5 different times over the last t...wo months. Yes, I have been without my TV for over two months. They have continuously refused to just replace the TV. Today my Service tech gave up all hope on repairing the TV after all the parts had been replaced, at least once. He was told to try to replace them again. SCREW LG!!!! Don't buy this brand!!! Read more Less

    Best value!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 14, 2007

    Pros: Same technology the "big names" have for less

    Cons: None come to mine

    I have had this for about a year, and I have to say it's awesome. LG has made a great product. It has all of the features of the other plasmas of similar size, but at a cheaper price and I think better value. It has 2 HDMI (rare to find 2), 2 com...ponent HD, multiple Audio/Video and PC inputs, etc. The built-in sound is awesome, and the picture is the best I have seen. Read more Less
