"Poor Quality Control"
Pros: Great picture. Excellent features.
Cons: Annoying buzzing and high pitch noise being emitted by TV.
Summary: I purchased the VP42 a little over two weeks ago. I was impressed with the feature set and picture quality, considering the low price and off brand. Sadly, I had to return it. After a few hours of use, I noticed a very annoying high-pitch sound being emitted by the TV. It wasnâ??t coming from the speakers, it was coming from the back of the TV and I could hear it even when the speakers were muted. It was so irritating that I took it back to Costco and got another unit. Within 10 minutes of the new TV being on, I started hearing the same noise. It also has a slight buzzing noise you can hear at low volume. I returned the plasma and picked up the 37â?? Vizio LCD. Once again, I am disappointed. The top half of the screen is obviously brighter than the bottom halfâ?¦..it must be a backlight problem. I love the features and the picture quality on the Vizio TVs, but I think there are too many quality control issues with the company. Also, donâ??t bother trying to contact the company for anything. I called and waited on hold for 2 hours before I finally hung up. Then I sent two e-mails to their support department and never heard anything back after two weeks.
