"Wonderful TV!" on by RayBeam
Pros: PQ is great. 1080p makes it a huge monitor for PC. PIP is awesome and allows the audio to be switched between main/sub screens. Has variable speaker setup so you can use other speakers and still control the volume or both at the same time.
Cons: No guide like it says in the book. Glossy/reflective trim around the screen.
Summary: Other then the missing guide feature and glossy trim, I have no faults with this set. The picture is good, the sound is so-so, but I plan to use something else anyway. Looks and feels solid to be a budget set.

"Used little broke down 2 weeks after warranty expired" on by justraven006
Pros: color was fantastic and the picture was great.
Cons: After a year the picture went out while I was watching the World Cup. There wasn't a storm. Nothing. I even bought a surge protector to make sure of it. But all of a sudden bam no picture and now I am without a TV.
Summary: I work full time and go to school full time so I have little time to watch tv; but when I do I enjoy it. Thought this would be a great product and after a year the picture went out. Warranty expired two weeks prior and now I am without a TV. Talking to the customer service agent was not much help. They said that it was probably the back light and the closest person to me was in Utah that they had who could work on it. I called a local TV repair place that said the back light went out and depending on what exactly happened it would cost me between $150 and $500 to fix. At $500 it is more than what I paid for the television.I learned a valuable lesson about buying extended warranties from this event. Though I loved the picture quality and used to brag about what an amazing product this is I will NEVER buy another one. The TV honestly was barely used and it makes me sick to my stomach that I am going without a TV because the product was defective. Customer Service was not very friendly and did not give me much in the way of help. So now I am on the hunt for something new.

"Best TV I've ever owned!" on by amerist78
Pros: The TV is the perfect size for smaller rooms where you are seated closer to the screen. 1080p is definitely appreciated at this size, contrary to editor opinion. Set sharpness at 3 and turn off all the "advanced video" features before calibrating.
Cons: The input switching method on VIZIO TVs does not work well with Universal remotes like Logitech Harmony. Also the Component 1 input is on the side of the TV while the Component 2 input is on the back with the rest. This doesn't make sense.
Summary: For the money you can't buy a better 32" Full HD TV. It's got some quirks and setting up PIP is somewhat strange but with some searching online there's really no obstacles with this TV that can't be overcome. The style is not obnoxious like some newer glossy TVs and has a really wonderful picture once it's calibrated with the Blu-ray version of DVE.
