    I love my Emerson. I’m so sad that they're not really around anymore. My 32” has lasted a nice 13 years and is still pushing strong, no noticeable drop in quality or sound. I love this thing and if I upgrade ever it will be another Emerson if I can find one

    Emerson TVs had decent picture quality, simple functionality, and good value for the money. For individuals looking for an affordable option, they were a good option because they were simple to set up and use. Overall, the durability was trustworthy. For simple viewing requirements, they fared admirably. When there were any setup or troubleshooting questions, customer support was quick to respond. All things considered, Emerson TVs offered an economical and satisfying visual experience.

      I bought my first and only Emerson tv back in 2015. It's now 2022. I have never had any issues with my tv. Although Emerson is not around anymore and got sold in 2001 I believe, Emerson is the best tv brand out there. Lasts forever. I will continue buying Emerson products as it's the only one I trust. I have a 50 inch dumb tv lol. I don't care if it's not updated technology. I'll never give this to up and if it breaks, I'll fix it. Best tv brand out there.

      Well we have two Emerson Flat Screen TVs. Both way over four years old. Most Newer TVs go out by this time. I have Chromebook and laptop that I can cast to both TVs with ease. We just bought a TCL Roku TV cause of my neck surgery. I've tried casting movies to it and it doesn't work apparently you have to have an HDMI cord which sucks cause it's mounted on the wall so you can't set a laptop or Chromebook on the floor. I wish I could ask him to take the TCL TV back but I'm going to need it for the next 6 weeks. I'm about to have another neck surgery. We will stick with Emerson from now on. It's by far the best brand we have ever had.

      I bought a 40" Emerson TV about 3 and 1/2 years ago at WalMart and it stopped working yesterday. For what I can read from other customers apparently the lifespan of an Emerson is about 6 months to three years maximum. The only reason mine lasted this long is because I rarely used it. It was secondary set we had in the bedroom. I'm saddened by the degrading quality of what used to be a great brand. And of course, I won't buy again!

      There was a fire at my husband's store, they couldn't sell some of the items, so they offered them to the staff at 4 for $5.00. (Yes, five dollars.) This was one of the four items my husband brought home. Considering it went through a lot of smoke plus the sprinkler system going off, it came out pretty well. It's about two or three years old, now, and we've never had any problems with it. Largest TV set I've ever owned, it just barely fits in the unit.

      Very Disappointed! Like so many other reviews, my tv (LED HMDI) just stopped working. Power button still on but when you try to turn it on, it just shuts off, like it has a short. No pic, no sound. checked all the connections. Did everything everyone else tried. Wish I had read the reviews before purchasing. This was a tv for my disabled mom, who watches a lot of tv. And it's not like I have money to go buy a new one. Sorry Emerson, you lost another customer. I will never buy anything with the Emerson brand on it.

      We were on the market looking for a new TV. We waited till Black Friday. We seen that Emerson TV for $200. A 55" was on sale, I told my husband let get this TV. He was not sure. He told me I'm never heard of the brand name. I told him I have not either? But then I told him many many years ago we were buying Samsung when the brand first came to market. I was glad we bought the TV and we paid a good price for good quality and not good quality and a high price for a brand-name. It looks just as good and it worked just as good as a high priced brand-name. Two thumbs up!

      I feel it's not an attractive tv at all and it's difficult to see the buttons on it to manually adjust without the remote. Thankfully I don't watch tv much and this TV is ideal for that type of viewer, however, some of the practical things have been left out of the screen and unlike old skool dial tvs, you have to be right up on it to see buttons that should be easier to see. This thing is very glare averse and I'm glad it isn't more pricey as I wouldn't buy it unless it was free.

      My LF461EM4 flatscreen TV was only 2.5 years old when it decided to simply stop operating (I could turn it on but after the Emerson logo appeared it died out). Some hard-to-understand "customer service" drone in the Philippines (another example of Emerson's sick corporate greed) had me go through the motions of unplugging and pushing the power button on for 10 seconds, then re-plugging the set. What a total waste, probably just a required futile exercise to make the customer think they care.

      She explained that Emerson's warranty of one year is over and there's nothing they can do but direct me to a repair shop. I explained that the state of Maine's Implied Warranty Law may conflict with her scripted assessment. She was useless, just like my $350 purchase. What the hell kind of company would sell a product for hundreds of dollars and not stand behind it if they don't have all intentions of going bankrupt and moving the hell out of the United States after ripping off Americans? I am making sure their plan succeeds.

      I purchased the Emerson 50" TV from WalMart 10 months ago. The volume was a little disappointing but no big issue. I actually really liked this TV. Then approx. 10 months after purchasing it, it essentially quit working. I turned it on- "Emerson" eventually -POOF! The TV shut off. No volume, no picture, nada! I tried it numerous times with the same effect. TV eventually turns on showing whatever channel & then GONE! I read the many reviews & then started looking for solutions. "IF" it was fixable-- the cost to repair was ignorant. At times, the cost to repair was almost the same as the cost of the TV brand new. Dealing with service & company was pointless. The only reason I gave it 2 stars = it was a good TV initially. I will never buy an Emerson again!

      I purchased a 55 inch Emerson tv around for Christmas. We had it a little less than 4 months and then it just went out. It makes a buzzing sound when you plug it in but will not turn on. I looked online to troubleshoot and see what the issue could be. It turns out that I am not the only one this has happened to. It seems to be a common problem with these Emerson TVs purchased around the same time. I would not recommend at all. I have the tv sitting in the back room until I can figure out how to get the money to have it fixed or if it will be better just to throw it away. Not happy at all.

      My son purchased this TV (EMERSON 50") December 2015 from WalMart. It was my Christmas present, thank God he purchased an extended warranty. Within the first six months of the having it, it went out. Serviceman fixed the set and then of course, it broke again. Serviceman comes in, takes set, fixes it. Again July 2017 TV breaks again. No picture or sound again. I call for service, I was sent a box to pack it up and send it out.

      Apparently when the service center received set it was shattered and sent back to me. When I packed TV it was fine. When they received it was shattered and no one emailed me, or called me. I just received a TV back shattered and of course, it's not their fault. This piece of crap should not have been on the market to begin with. No one wants to own up to it WalMart, Emerson or the warranty center. I recommend that if you are looking for a TV please DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM EMERSON!
