common sense

Pros: picture excellent

Cons: none so far

I've only had the tv for 5 months, but I've had no problems other than getting the kids to turn it off and go to bed. Right after I ordered this tv I went out and bought a mega joule circuit protector. It was on sale at one of the office supply stores for half price($40.00). The fluctuations in household current can damage these sensitive electronics, so this is necessary. Your not thinking clearly if you just plug this into an outlet like you old tv. I also found a Toshiba ($91.00) upconvert dvd player and the standard dvd's look almost as good as blue ray. The 120 mhz motion enhancer really keeps the picture sharp. It's got a much better picture than Sony, Panasonic, etc.

STAY AWAY

Pros: Easy to use and it looks great

Cons: Crapped out after 3 months....

After only 3 months (YEA I said 3 Months) of use the television began to fade to black when powered on. 1 month later the television would not power on. It has been an even worst nightmare dealing with their customer service. My 37 inch Vizio on the other hand is awesome!!! It just makes me sad that I shelled out $2100 For a well known television and my $700 NO Name Vizio out lived it!

Bad/Questionable parts and craftsmanship

Pros: Easy to use with decent picture/sound quality

Cons: TV quality is questionable...Screen goes black when turned on

Do not buy this SHARP TV (or other Sharp TVs) for the following reason:

The quality of the parts used and/or craftsmanship of the TV is not good. After a year or so every time I turn on the TV the screen stays black. I have to cut the TV on/off many times for it to finally return a picture. Sometimes I have to totally unplug it before a picture is returned. If you research this issue on google it seems to happen a lot. I contacted customer service who informed me since my one year warranty is up they can do nothing for me even though it seems to be a widespread manufacturing issue.

Pros: Look,Style and Picture

Cons: Speakers are on side of TV instead of the front

I`ve had this TV for 2 months and I`ve had no regrets at all. I was looking to upgrade for a 42" projection TV to a flat screen LCD. I shopped around compairing TV`s and came across this one and fell in love with it from the get go and the price sold me. Now all my family and friends come over for all the NFL & NBA games...oh well there`s always a draw back in eveything...LOL.
