"Buyer Beware!"
0.5 starson by SSSamsungPros: I bought this TV based on review and articles in which I found on the internet. This TV really does have an amazing picture. Hence, the 1/2 star.
Cons: Reliability is horrible!
Summary: I have owed this TV for 18 months. The other day I powered on and it continued to make a "clicking" sound. No picture and no sound. Google the problem and guess what, there are 100's if not 1000's of posts with the exact same issue. Apparently the capacitors associated with the power supply have been failing. So, reluctant to attempt the repair myself, I had someone come to the house to repair. The repairman would replace the caps but would not guarantee the work. With a new complete board replacement, ($120 more), I would get a 3 month warranty. Samsung needs to stand behind there products! There is obviously a design/hardware problem here! Oh yea, to make matters worse, I bought a 26" Samsung 2 weeks ago. Never again.....

We have had this TV for about a year now. After about six months ours started doing the same thing that you are describing here. When we tried to turn it on it would just make a clicking sound. As time went on it would take longer and longer to come on. When it finally came on there were either colored lines or sometimes black lines down the screen instead of a picture. We would have to turn it off and then back on to get them to go away. Yesterday the TV tried all day to come on and never did. We are now using our small TV from the camper until we can buy another one. We will never buy another Samsung. It was recommended to us by a sales man.
