Sharp TVs Reviews

Recent purchase. The suggestions by Sharp technical support is to contact local repair center. The costs for the service call in-house is steep and does not include labor or parts which I have been told are in the $200 - $500 range. A bit unfair if the product marketed is known to have a defective design/part(s).

A little over a year after purchasing the TV, it stopped working. It simply stopped turning on. It is a power supply issue apparently common with Sharp TVs. I contacted the company and they blew me off, telling me to contact a local repair shop and pay for the cost of repair out of my own pocket. I purchased the TV from BrandsMart USA. I went in to purchase a Sony to replace the Sony that I have owned for close to 10 years and which was still working fine. The salesman convinced me to buy a Sharp instead. What a mistake. The value of the TV is about $1000. If there is a class action against Sharp, please advise. I will willingly join.

I bought a Sharp LC32SB24U TV in Walmart the past October. Four months later, we had a power surge at home and following, the TV started acting up (shutting off automatically and leaving a green light blinking without no picture or sound at all). I called the Sharp company because the TV was under a manufacturer warranty. They sent a technician twice without any luck of getting it fixed. I still have the TV and did not hear from anybody. I lost a $700 TV and without any help from anybody. I basically had the same problem as the above poster. I would appreciate an email back at least to explain "yes sir, your ** out of luck". I'll feel a little bit better, you know. But if you think this could happen to 1 or 2 people, you can at least replace the TV, which I am not expecting at all or an email would be nice. If it was your TV, how would you feel? What would you do?

My TV quit working about 1 month after the warranty was done. I took it in for repair, and the cost would be $800 to fix it. I paid $1300 for it when I purchased it. I thought this product would last at least a couple of years. I am very disenchanted with Sharp TVs, and I would not recommend anyone to purchase one. I think they are junk and a typical Canadian rip-off, by our greedy merchants here in Canada.

I purchased a Sharp TV from Walmart on 08/28/2008, that sold me an extended warranty plan through Lifetime Service Center. I mailed the TV in for a bad speaker and received it back with a broken LCD screen and that they would not honor the warranty. My wife called a few days earlier and they said they had just received it and then 2 days later, we get the not and TV with the bad news.

Model DT-100 bulb out after only reaching 65% cost is over $300 for a new one only had a year or so.

We purchased a LC-46D64U (serial number: 71Q854057) in Nov. 2007. In Feb. 2009, we found 2 lines (one is 2 x 11 inches and another one is 1.5 x 7 inches) emerging from the sides of the TV, which consistently got larger very quickly.

My husband and I saved for three years to buy us a 46" LCD TV. My husband is a totally disabled Vietnam veteran. This is the only thing to keep his mind busy. He is 63 and I am 62. We paid cash for it. It is only 7 months old. Sharp has had it for 7 weeks now. I would like to get a new replacement before my husband dies. The television would not turn on, light keeps blinking. All boards replaced, still would not work. I told Sharp that I wanted a new TV, not a refurbished one. I didn’t buy a refurbished one. It was a new one.

My Sharp TV, model LC-60c46U, is still broken from 11/28/2009. Sharp sent the technician to my home. He changed many parts, and lost too much time to me. He came 6 times, he never finished it. Today, I still don't have the TV working good. I paid $1650 for the TV and lost many hours, 16 in total.
