Vizio XVT473SV

Pros: Set-up out of the box was a breeze. Picture quality. Sound is good for a television. VIA (apps) are easy to get to and navigate. Best picture I have seen on a LED LCD HDTV, which includes the higher end brands like Sony and Samsung. Ease of use.

Cons: The Vizio logo stays lit up in white on the bottom panel. It's not a show-stopper. Would be nice for it to go away. Needs YouTube widget.

Summary: The remote itself is brilliant and easy to use and integrate with other components like Blu-rays, cable DVR's, etc. I researched televisions for a very long time before I purchased. I was leaning towards the Samsung until I looked at the picture quality between the two. There is no comparison. This television can stand up against Sony, Samsung, and all the other top brands/models. I had everything connected and on within a few minutes. I am in love with this television. I replaced a Sony Trinitron that stopped working. Sony was definitely out on my list. Sharp Aquos LED LCD is a cheaper alternative without sacrificing the quality of picture. I am very pleased and I am thankful I found it at Costco for $1099.99, $200 less than Amazon, Walmart, and other retailers.
