  Strengths: Great picture quality, easy to set up, good organization for remote control

  Weaknesses: None yet

  Overall: This LCD was very easy to set up. I used the wall mount in my kitchen. It is a great size for a smaller room. It was very easy to mount and set up the TV for use. The picture quality was superior in my comparison at Circuit City. The remote is very logical and the buttons are of adequate size. It allows to select channels and change many options. I now have access to many additional channels. I would purchase this LCD again.

  Strengths: Excellent picture quality, All possible interfaces (inputs), Excellent manual and best price. Butons in remote are nicely positioned and makes easier to switch various input modes.

  Weaknesses: Interfaces in the back are arranged very close to the back panel and removing/putting signal connector could be difficult for big hands (like me). Sound quality lacks bass.

  Overall: Excellent size makes it suitable for bedroom / kitchen. Great picture quality (does not have any issues when viewed at angles). Bass could have been better. Connector positioning at the back could have been done better. One more HDMI input for connecting game consoles and DVD player would have been great help.

  Strengths: Very easy to set up, tuner scan found extra HD channels, very good picture quality, nice design.

  Weaknesses: P-I-P doesn't allow 2 cable channels to be viewed w/o a separate cable box/tuner using either the HDMI or Component input.

  Overall: I brought this set for a bedroom/office to replace a 12 year old Sony 13" TV. It is a manufacturer-refurbished model, and I did have some concerns. However, the TV arrived in 2 business days, one of which was a national holiday so the standard shipping delivery time was excellent.(I ordered it on Saturday afternoon, and it arrived Tuesday morning) The TV looks brand new, with a few very minor surface scratches on the black trim around the screen which I believe was from the packing material. You have to get at a certain angle to see them so not a big deal.I connected the Cox cable directly to the DTV RF input and did the scan. I'm now getting all of the local stations in HD and a couple of non-local HD stations that I wasn't expecting. Channel labeling would be a nice feature as all I know of the channel is from the logos in the lower corner of the screen.The picture setup was easy and the picture quality is very good. I'm using the Standard setting, and the only adjustments I made were on the Backlight, which I lowered to 70. The audio was okay after adjusting the Bass up a bit. It's acceptable sound, but what can you truly expect from a couple of small speakers.All in all I'm very pleased with the purchase transaction and with the Vizio TV. I'll definitely consider them if and when a new TV is needed in the future, assuming the long-term reliability lives up to my expectations.

  Strengths: clarity, color controls, integrated tuner

  Weaknesses: could use some more HDMi inputs, glossy black bezel reflects too much light

  Overall: Bought this unit for a kitchen HD LCD and love it so far. For its small size it displays a beautiful HD image via HDMI. Sound could be a bit beefier but I might need to adjust the audio options a bit more. Lots of menu and tweaking options. So far a wonderful HD unit for a great price. Just wished they used a matte finish instead of glossy (I hate its reflective nature). Will definitely look into more VIZIO's in the future.
