Vizio Reviews

I purchased a Vizio 65" 4K smart TV. At first it worked fine, but within 30 days with no changes to the TV or anything I had plugged into it, the screen suddenly stopped working. Fortunately the TV was still under warranty, and I was brought a new TV with a home installation (but this was about two weeks later!). Now, about a year and a half later, the screen on the newer TV is completely messed up to the point where it cannot be used. This happened suddenly, overnight, with no physical changes whatsoever.

Purchased TV Oct 16/2013... March 2016 started getting black wide horizontal lines across screen. My warranty plan wouldn't fix because it would cost more than I paid for TV. They paid me what I paid for TV originally, so that was a great deal for me. Adjusted set so I could have a more watchable screen. Nov 2016 - a little over 3 yrs and screen went totally black. It's 2016, TV's should last longer than 3 or 4 years. Thank GOD I had that warranty plan.

Recently ordered a TV which I paid $1189.45. When I open the box find that the screen is broken. I call Vizio and make a case. After about a week they call me and only can offer a discount on a second tv. They say that I signed delivery sheet that states item is in good condition. For my understanding delivery is signature required so I need to sign for the package. Don't buy from Vizio. They have no customer service. This was my first and last purchase.

I bought a Vizio at Walmart 4k Led and 35 days later it stopped working. I called Vizio and they claim #1 service satisfaction. I spoke with three personnel. The first was rude and stated there was nothing they could do, I called right back. The 2nd lady was more generous and said "yes ma'am. Scan your receipt and we will send you a new tv, call back tomorrow and we will finish the transaction." I called today the guy said "based on the type of problem we will send a repair guy to you in 7-10 days." Oh lordy what. Don't buy a Vizio (the warranty huh they are giving you a recycled TV). Ridiculous.

I have had two of these TVs fail within 2 years each. The first one I was able to get Walmart to replace, the second one also failed and Vizio would do nothing but sell me another. Vizio made me feel I should be lucky the TV had been replaced and I got 4 years service out of them. Yes, thanks to Walmart they did replace my first one, but Vizio did nothing. This company sells JUNK and I would never, ever buy any Vizio product again. All Vizio does is contribute to our landfills here. If you see Vizio in the store... Run, fast.

This issue took place over the course of 1.5 months+. I was sent all around the world every time I called and was put on hold for way too long. The only case notes kept were from my first email chat with support. Some days I had a nice customer support helper, others I had condescending, rude, and unhelpful individuals and managers. Offers I was made on a replacement TV after they did nothing to help me with options to repair my original TV were never documented in case notes and denied by managers. Their teams seem to NOT communicate in any way. After this, I will never purchase another product from VIZIO and this less than helpful customer support. They boast of being 'American' support, and that is clear because they are rude, unhelpful and slow. Again, to avoid the headaches on the cheap TV you buy that will break, buy another brand. Seriously.

I received a Vizio TV which had a broken screen when the box was opened. Vizio customer service sent me to three departments, numerous calls and had me submit ten pictures of the box and TV. They then reviewed and then refused the claim on the basis the box was not opened immediately after it was delivered. They were unhelpful, rude, uncooperative and totally unaccommodating. No refund, no exchange, no credit. The worst company I have ever dealt with.

Had nothing but issues with this TV. I would be watching tv and for no reason the screen goes black. I have to completely shut it down and or at times even unplug the tv and the cable box hence the cable then has to reset as well. When I google what causes this it seems I'm not the only one with vizio issues. I've tried everything google states to try including but not limited to turning my remote away from the tv. As stupid as this sounds! Thankfully my birthday is near and I'll be getting another new TV. My order is for any brand But Vizio. The smart tv part also has issues that when I'm watching YouTube, amazon, etc the tv buffers. Once again I have to shut it down and reset the tv. Nightmare!!!

Bought my TV in September 2016 and on November 7th my tv stopped working. The screen was black and the backlight was on. It started turning on and off by itself with no picture at all. I called Vizio and they sent a tech within 3 days. The tech did a master reset and left. It worked again for 5 MINUTES. Then the same problem happened again. I called them back and they said they could only send me a used replacement. What??? I bought it brand new WITH A WARRANTY and you are telling me that you are going to send me a used TV replacement??? That's the most crooked, con artist warranty I've ever heard of! Do NOT buy this BRAND!!!

I bought a 60" Vizio 4K Smart TV at Sam's Club. It had a 12 month warranty and went out after 15 months. I had to pay a repair service, recommended by Vizio, to see if it could be repaired. It could not. I now have the most expensive paperweight on the market. Flush your money down the toilet. It's the same as buying a Vizio TV!

My kids bought me a Vizio E500i tv for Christmas. After 18 months my tv screen went black no picture. I called the Vizio repair. They were very rude and told me I had to pay from 250 to 300 dollars. I can't afford fixing or buying a new one. Worst tv ever. Please don't purchase Vizio tv's.

I bought a 55 inch smart Vizio in October of 2014 and now I get audio and no picture. I called tech support and they try to reset the tv and it last for 2 days and I get the same problem. They say there is nothing that can be done because I am out of warranty but I would think after paying $600 for their product they could help me. I bought a smaller HD tv by a smaller company 4 years ago and it works fine. Come on Vizio you can do better that that!!!

Purchased a tv in 12/2015. Within 10 months, there was a horizontal green line across the bottom half of the screen. Was first told to send it in for repairs but then received a second call stating it was "Defective" and could not be repaired. They were going to send me a recertified tv (the term they use instead of refurbished) which is a tv that is sent back to their warehouse for various reasons and can't be resold as new. I asked for the replacement to be a new tv, since the one I purchased was new, and they have deemed it is defective. I had not misused or damaged the tv so I didn't understand why I was getting a used/repaired tv. All they could say was that's what their warranty states. The executive resolution team had the same scripted response so I said I wanted documentation as to what was done to the replacement tv they were going to send me and he said he couldn't provide that to me.

I bought a $1800 flat screen TV in August of 2013. 3 years later the tv does not work. I've had a tv repair person to tell me that there was nothing he could do. I've spoke with very rude people at Vizio, they have my registration card, they can track the purchase and still no help. They are very rude and nonchalant. They want your money, but will not help you at all. I am done with these people. I would rather give my money elsewhere!

Bought Vizio 55" TV 21 months ago, less than 2 years old. Took me and my husband quite a while to save up for this tv. This week the screen went black. Good sound, no picture. Called vizio tech support. First person wanted to sell us another tv for a special price. We paid $626.00 for this tv and they would give us a deal for $500.00. Where are we suppose to get $500.00 just like that. The tv was less than 2 years old. Called the next day and the woman I talked with was so rude. "Just buy a new tv" she said "because we can't help you". Did not want to help us. If you unplug the tv for a while it starts working again for about an hour and then the screen goes black.

I purchased a 55" Vizio TV at Costco with the 2 year warranty. The first TV went out in 6 months - it was a lemon. Vizio replaced it with a "refurbished TV" - which is absolutely a scam. Anyway, the "refurbished TV" went out in 18 months. I called Vizio and Costco and they told me that the 2 year warranty was expired by THREE WEEKS! They explained that the warranty period doesn't apply to the TV but is calculated from the date of purchase of the first TV. I've since found out that Vizio ordered a recall of many of their TVs for a "bad-chip assembly" which causes the screen to go black - exactly what happened to my TV. Yet, they will not refund my money, nor replace my TV. Do not buy this brand!!!

We bought our TV less than 6 months ago from Walmart and already we have problems. The TV turns off outta nowhere, the remote don't work, it won't turn on half of the time, and the sound also goes in and out. It also goes crazy like clicks on apps when nobody is even around the remote. We have had these problems about a week after purchasing the TV.

Neighbors gave me their non-working 70" E701i-a3 and said it went black but still had sound and if anyone wanted it and could get to work and use it could have it, so I picked it up and researched the model so I could buy the part. After researching it was a model that was issued a recall in 2014 so I called Vizio and they said the model was given an extended warranty but the one I had was 6 months past that and said I could get a discount. They transferred me to another rep and I explained it was given to me by my neighbor and if there was anything they can do to help me get the part to get it fixed.

Purchased a 43" tv set thirteen months ago. All of a sudden, the screen showed up lines, then it went black. Call customer service and the only option I was offered was to buy another set. Basically, what they said is that the tv set is unrepairable.

Vizio tv's have intermittent sound problems, where the sounds cuts out and back in periodically. Under warranty, Vizio replaced the audio / video circuit board, but the issue remained. Vizio said they would replace the tv with a new one. Actually, the replacement is not new, but a customer returned re certified tv. It is unknown why the tv was returned. Vizio customer service is poor, and lacks product quality and consumer warrant support. I would recommend purchasing a different brand with higher quality. No, I do not recommend this product.

Purchased new Vizio. Sometimes had audio and sometimes no audio. Called cable company to correct problem and was told it was the fault of the TV, and I was charged a service fee of $99. I feel Vizio should reimburse the fee after I had to wait until parts came in and schedule a time for a contractor to repair. Vizio denied my request. I am not happy with the situation and will never again purchase any type of Vizio product.

I have bought my last three TV's from Vizio (a 32", 47", and 60"), and they are consistently the best TV's for the price you could possibly get. The most recent TV I bought, the 60", was $750 and is 4K enabled with Google Cast built in. Unbeatable.

I bought my Vizio 55 inch TV a mere TWO YEARS ago and now all of a sudden it doesn't work. You would think a $700 purchase would last at least 5-10 years, but no, not Vizio. The company is of absolutely no help and now I am going to have to pay even more money to try to get the thing fixed by Best Buy. I wish I would have looked at reviews of this bogus company before I invested such a large sum of money into it. NEVER again will I make the mistake of buying Vizio, and you shouldn't either!

I bought the 50 inch P-series their top of the line. Cost me over $1000 with tax. I did not buy the extended warranty as it was over $100 in cost and I was buying the best TV Vizio makes. It lasted 1 year 3 months. I called Vizio and was told "Sorry for your loss." I asked about repair and was told it is cheaper to buy a new one. I asked for a discount on a new Vizio and was offered a $20 discount on a model I did not even want their low-end E-series. I found a TV with a 4 year warranty. I will never buy Vizio nor will anyone at my church. They have award losing service as far as I am concerned.

Get a load of this! We purchased a 70" Vizio TV in January 2014. In July 2016 (2.5 years later), our screen went black. After some research, and attempted fixes (including $100 in new parts), we learned that it was a faulty panel, and fixing it would cost more than purchasing a new TV. This was a known issue with these TVs and Vizio had increased the warranty from 1 to 2 years. So we just missed it. The only thing they offered to do for us was to sell us a newer model TV at a slightly discounted price. They offered us a $1,600 model for $1,200. This was at the end of July, and we were in the process of moving. We were already under contract for the sale of our house so there was no point in installing a new TV in a house we would be shortly leaving.

Had this TV for 5 1/2 years. Suddenly stopped working. It is DEAD!! Took it to a repair shop, and they had large number of Vizio TV's for repair. They tried to fix it (it would have cost around $200) but could not (repair shop did not charge). I called Vizio and they said they could send someone to see if it can be repaired. It would have been $350 down the drain. Never buying Vizio again. #Costco - quit selling them please!!

Last year I purchased a Vizio 50 inch smart TV from Target Model E500i-a1. Tv worked great when new. It broke in a mere 18 months. The V logo flashed for a second and went out. I had sound but no picture. If I took a flashlight and put it to the screen I could see the image. So I had picture and sound but no backlight. The T-con board broke and needed to be replaced. So I did, and in a month it broke again, same issue. Called Vizio for help and they were useless basically saying since I didn't purchase the extended warranty I was out of luck.

My 42 inch tv was a few days out of warranty and Vizio would not support. It does not turn on, I go through resetting several times and sometimes it will power up and then shut down. Their solution was to spend $309 to have it repaired. I would not recommend Vizio.

My Vizio Smart TV has a dark gray band across the middle 1/3 of the screen. After researching online, I see that this has been a problem for years. Since the TV is out of warranty, I contacted Vizio and was told they had partnered with ITI for repairs. I have called ITI twice only to be on hold and then directed to voicemail asking me to leave a message. No one has ever returned my call. Most would consider Vizio a brand name and expect quality products. If consumers don't research, they may be stuck with a defective product. Why have these products not been recalled? Why hasn't Vizio been required to correct this issue with better quality parts?

I bought a 42" Vizio TV just under two years ago. Yesterday the screen went black and now the picture is very dark. I called Vizio and was told the TV was out of warranty but they would repair (?) it for just $221. These TVs do not have any moving parts. A repair would be just replacing a plug & play component I would think. I noticed over 1000 complaints on this website. Wouldn't that trigger a recall or something by Vizio? Seems to me they are trying to make money on repairs of obviously defective products. When I asked how the Customer Service Rep felt about my TV going bad in less than two years, Her comment was,"There is no shelf life on electronics." What an attitude! I don't believe this speaks well for the manufacturing facilities (in Mexico) nor the quality assurance, nor the integrity of the components.

Purchase two Vizio televisions different years. One lasted only about 18 months before it went black. The other one lasted two years. Both TVs were out of the Vizio warranty. Spent over $5000 home purchase on TVs. Only got 4 four years total out of them. Never again. I want to buy American but they don't back their stuff. I wish I would have got a Sony.

I had a great experience with Vizio. We own a 55 in smart tv so when looking at surround sounds we found a display unit at Best Buy. We purchased the Vizio sb4051. In two months the soundboard quit working. I called customer service and was asked to email proof of purchase. Once they received it they approved a replacement once we shipped the bad unit back. Needless to say three weeks later we have a brand new unit. There was no hassle and I appreciated speaking with an American every time I called. Thought I should share my good experience.

My husband bought a TV less than 1 1/2 years ago at Costco. The television just blacked out. We paid a service fee of $75 for a repair guy to come and take a look at the TV. I called 1-855-833-3221. Vizio support explained what happened. After speaking with a service agent at Vizio she stated I should had gone through the ITI repair company 888-248-2708. After speaking with ITI giving the serial number, model stated this TV has had so many poor panel problems. They are NO longer servicing this television. Ref #**. NEVER will we recommend a Vizio!

My HDMI port was not working. I called them to come out to my house to fix. The man came, took it off my wall, sat it on his table, and begin to work on it. When he was done I helped him put it back on the wall. I proceed to plug it in. It comes on. He goes, "Was that already cracked?" I said, "No, it was not. Nothing was wrong it." He says, "Ima call it in and tell them it was an on-site break." I said, "OK yeah 'cause you broke it not me and I would like a new TV." I go through all the steps -- the pictures, the email call -- to where they finally call me and again I explain, and at the end of the conversation the guy on the phone says, "Well I don't think he did it." WHAT!!!???!!! Customer Service sucked at that point but it really pissed me off then. I'm now without a TV in my living room that they will not replace due to them not me. I JUST WANT MY TV REPLACED PLEASE.

I bought 3 Vizio T.V's - two 32". Both in less than one year the picture went out. I called customer service and got a number for reference to the I.T department I called for one week. No reply. I called Customer service and found out I. T for Vizio does not repair black light issues. I would have to replace both T.V's unless I bought the extended warranty. Do not buy this T.V unless you also buy the warranty and extended warranty.

VIZIO-50" M50-C1 - Had the television since 8/26/2015, and about a month ago the tv started with vertical colored lines. Then the screen would go blank, with sound but no picture. Called VIZIO and they gave me a bunch of suggestions, which none corrected itself. I even called the cable company. The cable tech said it's the television not the cable, so VIZIO said take a picture of the problem when it occurs and send it them, which I did. It took them several weeks to send a tech out with another tv (rectified). After watching the tv for about an hour, I smelled an odor through the top vents, so don't know if this tv is gonna make it to the 90 days of the warranty?

We purchased a 32 inch Vizio TV in Fall of 2014. In February of 2016 our TV started freezing up. We called support and they first said it was the remote.. The batteries was the first thing we checked before calling support. Then they had us try turning off the router, that did not work. We called them back again and of course had to run all of the same tests and now they say it is a firmware problem! They said there isn't anything we can do to fix it, but will need to call a repair place. We spent extra $$ to buy a "good" TV, so glad we got our money's worth. A year and a half, what a deal! NOT recommending anyone buy a Vizio!

Bought a TV in Nov 2015. In August 2016 turn TV and have a circle in bottom. Next day have lines coming out of it. 2 days later another circle and more lines. Like the rest filed a complaint with my warranty and also like the rest of you, they tell me external damage, not covered, “but we will sell you another Smart TV for 179.00 plus your state taxes!” This company is a fraud! 1 star is too good of a rating for them!

March 2016, I bought a Vizio soundbar from an eBay retailer. It stopped working after 6 months. I contacted Vizio tech support to start the process. I followed their procedures and provided them with a screenshot documenting the proof of purchase. They accepted, and replied with a case number and a phone number to continue. Contacted them again, they REQUIRED me to try troubleshooting using Bluetooth connectivity to see if it was still malfunctioning. Ok, so I did. Same results. I called a second time, they claim the proof of purchase I uploaded the first time didn't have enough information and required more info. So, I uploaded a screenshot of a different screen from eBay that included the seller's name, price, date of sale, etc, all the details they required. Again, I received a reply that included my case number and the same phone number to call to proceed with tech support.

We purchased this TV 15 months ago! For $750 they offered to send me another TV that's worth $700 for $550. Why would I purchase another TV from you that would last only 15 months! Do Not Buy A Vizio!

I purchased a 4K Vizio Smart TV in February of 2016. In July of 2016, I started having problems with the TV. I turned the TV on in the morning and it was working just fine - the screen/picture was perfect. I ran a few errands and came home later that day and when I turned the TV on, there was a black circle in the lower left hand corner, right above the power indicator. Upon further inspection, I found that the metal frame of the TV was singed and had melted a bit, and the screen had some tiny cracks right above this.

I purchased this TV in November of 2014, now less than 2 yrs later it goes out only showing a white screen. So I call them and they inform me that it's out of warranty... Oh and I can't purchase one either... so just my lost of 600+ dollars for a TV made by Vizio. To me this company is a big scam!!! How do you sell an item that you don't expect to last a year? And how is ok not to offer a warranty to the customer... regardless if it's a third party company or not if they are selling your product the same standards should be meet!!! They charge all this money but the first time it's an issue with their products it's the seller or customer fault... that they're scam, because in my opinion if you selling any item stand by it!!! But the fact that don't shows they have no faith in their products so neither should we... unless you have money to throw away, don't spend it with Vizio!

I have had 2 different TVs from a warranty issue and a technician "repair" one on site. Still have the same problems with the TV. This was their solution the third time.

I have purchased 2 Vizio TVs in the last 2 years and BOTH have died. I should have learned my lesson with the first. Both died at 18 months to the day after purchase with very light usage. I WILL NEVER BUY VIZIO AGAIN. I advise anyone who reads this to WARN EVERYONE against this brand!

I bought a 48" VIZIO from Walmart in March 2016. It was a displayed. The manager told me that they sold that tv to Walmart 2 yrs ago... Now less than 6 months my husband just move the tv to clean the entertainment center. Put it back half of it was showing image. The led was broken inside. Go to Walmart. They told us to call VIZIO so we did. Send them pictures of the tv. They told us it was physical damage. It not cover. Now it our loss. Their representative was very rude. The manager try to sell me another tv for replacement. Crazy right. Their products is cheap and not durable... From what I see they should not be able to keep selling those cheap brand to rip off people. Walmart need to stop doing business with VIZIO. Look at their reviews on Google. Not even 3???

Christian, customer service, stated there was no recall. He further stated that the set not qualify because I tried to have the set repaired. When I had called Vizio previously, the tech did not inform me of any of this information. The set I'm throwing away is LFTRNWCP432977. The set I am purchasing is not a Vizio. Don't buy a Vizio. They have already cost themselves two sales. They should be out of business by 2023 but I wish it were sooner. Wait, the customer service tech said he could help if I mash the v button.

Just bought a VIZIO 48" TV E48U-D0. Following the instructions in your installation guide, first time set-up we plugged the HDMI CABLE into the receiver as shown in your illustration pg.12/13. This did not work. After working over an hour, we called a technician. $90.00 later the technician plugged the HDMI CABLE into the internet connection outlet and the set went on immediately. Your guidebook is wrong and it cost me time and money!

Vizio Smart TV - HUGE disadvantage for people without smart phones as the only way to access the MENU settings for Audio or Picture are via the app. After contacting the SUPPORT they informed me that it was stated on the box that you need to have the app to do that. What it really says on the box is that it is APP enabled meaning yes its cool I can use a smart phone to access my TV, Not that you can ONLY access the menu settings via the smart phone app. My suggestion to Vizio is to install a menu button on their remote to remedy the problem. Bad design flaw is all that the issue is. Simply put could all be solved even with a firmware update to have multiple buttons being depressed to access the menu feature.

We have a 50 inch E500I-B1 TV purchased from Sam's Club approximately 2 years ago. When I tried to turn the TV on I had no audio no picture. I tried 5 times to call tech support, my call would not go through. I then emailed tech support and explained my problem, I was also given an chat tech support address if the issue was not resolved. I followed their directions nothing worked. I tried the chat address that was provided and I was informed there was no such address. I have read other complaints and see that I have the same situation as a lot of other customers. I wonder how this company is allowed to continue to sell an inferior product and provide lousy customer service. Maybe it is time to file a class action lawsuit.

After reading reviews and researching TV's, I came across what I thought was a good deal on a Vizio 50' 240hz HDTV in late May 2015. I did not buy the extended warranty (my mistake). After 14 months, the TV was turning on slower and slower. I called Vizio customer support to find out if this was an issue. The technician had me do a few steps to reset the power system. Once I followed their directions, the TV stopped work altogether!

My grandfather had purchased my brother a tv. Sooner he passed it on to me. It is an older model but not way old. He purchased it 3 years ago. Now it has a hazard sign on it, and will not let me on Netflix or Hulu. They always say their operator are busy whenever I try and call to ask why it does this.

My wife and I got a 55" E550i-B2 when we bought our house. It was great, until a year and 9 months of having it. The LED backlight went out and when I called VIZIO to see what we can do to fix it, they said that it was "economically" unfixable, meaning it would be cheaper to buy a new one. Really what that meant was "We won't fix our problem." I was even told that this is a common issue with that model TV and they still won't do anything to fix it! I will never buy another VIZIO and I hope that anyone reading this will not either. They said they could sell me another TV at a discounted price. Yeah, okay. WALMART SELLS THEM CHEAPER! Bunch of LIARS! How can a company produce a product and not stand behind it? Great business model, liars.

I can even go into how many calls, emails back and forth. Costco should dump them from their stores. I bought 5 28-inch TV for the office. One died after a year. Called. "Please fill this out and send us picture." Wow. I sent total of 25 picture mind you. The same 3. It took 5 calls to get the pictures to them because they keep sending the wrong link. Then ok, is under warranty. Then they cancelled. More calls, back and forth. They said it was our fault, and we will send out a 28 inch TV to replace it. Guess what happen today when getting the confirmation, it was sent. "Nope we are not sending it, because we do not do that." Huh? Talk to a supervision which was condescending and very unprofessional. Can give two cents. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY. They do not back their products.

I've been recommending Vizio sets for years. When a friend bought a new 70" model at Costco, he soon discovered it had no over-the-air tuner, something that has been standard in TV sets since the 1940s. He had to buy a separate after-market tuner that cost $50 and looks very ugly. Vizio justifies omitting the tuner by claiming that 'only 10% of people' watch over the air and it adds unnecessary cost to each set that most users won't use. This 10% number is old... it's much higher now that many people are cord-cutting. They also say this set is a 'Home Display' and touts it's 'tuner free'. Legally they can't call it a TV. Vizio does not deserve your business for this deception. They are a huge disappointment to me and I will never recommend them again.

OVER 4 YEARS AGO, I was a new comer (legal resident) in the United States. From where I came from, I never got a clue nor did I know what the credit card system was and I never needed or had to have a credit card or a credit score to be able to make purchases in life until I arrived in the United States. It's so hard to get and/or rent a damn house without being faced or bombarded with credit score or credit history interrogations. So as a new comer, I decided to open a credit card with Capital One and start building the damn credit score. When I called Capital one, the only option they had for me was a secured credit card. And I had to put my own money into it to start building my credit score. I did in the tune of $700.00

I own a 55" Vizio smart tv which worked well for the first 9 months I owned it. I then had issues with the power not coming on at all. The power indicator light fades on and off. I called Vizio and went through troubleshooting and was told they would send a technician out since it was within the first year that I purchased it. Several days went by and I heard nothing, so I decided to call. I was then told that there wasn't a technician available in my area. This would have been nice to know when I initially reported the problem. I was then told they would replace my television with what I guess is a refurbished one.

I have a 2 years old Vizio tv. All of a sudden Youtube stops working. I called them up, they said Youtube no longer supports the older model! What are you trying to tell me, my 2 year old tv is old. Or I should go buy a Roku to use on my tv. Vizio false advertise, they advertise Youtube, they should equip the tv with softwares that can update, so we consumers can get what we paid for. They are a ripoff. They deserve zero stars. I will never purchase nothing from this company again.

I buy a TV at Costco and instead of safe and reliable Sony, Lg or Samsung decided to let me take the costs and fell into the trap of Vizio. I came home and went quickly install my TV to watch the Olympic Games and to my surprise not the TV is actually a TV! This company sells a product that deprives us of watching traditional channels such as ABC, NBS, CBS, FOX etc... No TV today, Costco already closed and I cannot change the device that I bought today for a real TV! I've never seen a tv "TUNER FREE" and will never buy one! Vizio also says that whoever wants to receiving free over-the-air signals must buy an adapter device... Not recommend this company. The product is not a tv, it should have an announcement making clear what the product offers.

I bought a Vizio E420i-BO. It will not power on. My only recourse seems to be to buy a new TV. There seems to be no recourse through Vizio, although this seems to be a very common problem. I will never buy another Vizio product.

So we bought a 47 inch Vizio from Costco for my son, but alas, after about a year and four months, it died. It just turned off and wouldn't power up anymore. Since it was still under the initial warranty with Vizio, they sent out a technician in just a few days to fix it. Apparently the main computer board was dead and it was replaced. So fast forward to not even a year later and it is dead again. This time the SquareTrade Warranty kicked in. They tried to diagnosis it over the phone but quickly realized it had once again blown the computer board and they decided it was too expensive to fix so we are just getting our entire purchase price refunded.

I have a 32 inch Vizio TV that I have had for 10 months. I turned it off one night and when I turned it back on the next day there was a 3/8" dot about 1/2" from the bottom and a vertical line from top to bottom. I talked to Vizio tech support. They sent an e-mail requesting pictures of my receipt and the screen and another showing the location of the TV, which I did. Called to verify they had received the pictures and talked to a rep while they looked at them and was told that it was covered and gave me a service request number and told me that someone from a local repair service company would be calling in 3 to 5 days to set up a time to come out and make repairs. Waited 7 days and nothing.

The M401i I bought is less than 2 years old and is dead already. The problem started several months ago when the picture would just black out after being on a few hours. Several things helped, changing the channel, turning it off and back on, and a couple of times it would not power off with the remote or the power button on the side, so I would just unplug it for a few (reboot) and plug it back up. 2 nights ago while watching, it made an almost siren like sound and when I looked over at it, it was black. I tried the remote and then the power button to turn it off but they did not work so I unplugged it. When I re-plugged it, the power light was still on, blinking slowly, but it would not respond. Unplugged it and went to bed. Tried it again the next morning and still nothing. The logo appeared on the screen for a few secs then went away; nothing since.

I purchased a 55" VIZIO TV in November 2014. Like many of the reviews on-line, I experienced the unfortunate backlight failure issue where my TV had sound but no picture. A VIZIO support rep said that the average TV last 6-8 years. Mine lasted less than 2. What's worse is the fact that their support center offered NO assistance and actually would not give me a contact name for their supervisor. Read reviews before you purchase a VIZIO. Far too many complaints about the backlight going shortly after the 1 year warranty period expires. Where there's smoke, there's fire! IMO, this is an inferior product and the service from VIZIO is even worse than that.

I have a 2 year old Vizio E500 series 50" smart TV I bought from Costco. In less than a year it started having network connection problems. After calling Vizio 3x and going thru diagnostics with them they decided to have their repairman check it. He ended up replacing the (network?) board. It's now about a year since and it's exhibiting the same issues. I have an older Vizio smart TV which has never given me any problems. That's why I bought a 2nd Vizio. But after this experience I am not touching a Vizio again.

I purchased a 55 inch Vizio flat screen smart TV and worked well for a few months. Then I started having problems with it connecting to the internet plus speed was really slow. Called customer service and they had do several tests and said they would sent someone to fix it. Repairman came and replaced all the circuit boards except the WIFI (go figure) and as you might expect it didn't fix my problem so I called back and this guy had me run a new bunch of tests and he say "You are going to a new TV" (actually a refurb). So I get the new TV and lo and behold I get a whole set of new problems. I rescan for channels 2 or 3 times a week IF I CAN GET THE "FIND CHANNEL" OPTION TO APPEAR IN THE MENU WINDOW. Very disappointed with Vizio and doubt that I'll buy another one.

I used to think this TV was real nice for a year-and-a-half that I've had it but now it's starting to give me problems. With the apps that are on there Netflix is the worst. I called customer service numbers of times. They try to reset the TV and doesn't stay connected to the internet. You have to put in your password every time you want to watch something. This is the worst idea I've ever had. I cannot wait to get a new one. I can't watch nothing in the bedroom. I have to look at everything on my wonderful Sony 4K 50 inch TV. They need to take these TVs off the market because they're ripping people off. After looking at the reviews of this TV never will I buy this piece of junk again.

We bought a 50" Vizio in January of 2015 at Best Buy. We didn't get the extended warranty because, you know, a TV will last at least 2 years of course! In February of 2016 (wow), the picture would not come on all the time. I searched for a fix and found one online. It worked for a few months, but recently, I was having the same problem - no picture, sound only. I called tech support and was told that the next time I get the TV on, to reset it to factory settings. The tech person even gave me instructions on how to do this.

About 6 months ago I purchased a Vizio Soundbar system that came with a soundbar, a subwoofer, and two smaller speakers. Everything was great until a couple of months ago, when I would sit and watch tv, and the volume would gradually start drop on the soundbar. Called Technical Support. The lady there was very nice and did a soft and hard reset and it was working great. Then it started to happen again a month or so later. I called technical support back.

I bought a 43 4k Vizio last September 2015. The TV stop working somewhere in May. I called Vizio to get it repaired and the tech came somewhere in June to get it repaired but no luck. Then I called Vizio again to get replacement and the rep ok but now still haven't have the tv yet. Also, Manna delivery company is the rudest people I ever spoken with in my life.

You would think Vizio would make a better THAN they do with all the other brands but as we can see they don't care about their customers and that's sad because without us there would be no Vizio so maybe they should think about that before they're out of business. I will not buy another one if they don't last longer than a year or two then shut the doors on them. I work hard for my money.

I have bought two tvs in two years. Same thing happened on both the screen. Goes blue then black. Can't get the tv to turn on or do anything. This is the last Vizio tv I buy. 32 inch sets, cost 255.00 dollars per set. I'm on a fixed income and can't afford to keep doing this. All I ask is I get what I pay for. Not ripped off.

Purchased my Vizio television 9 months ago and it's been giving me problems since the day I unboxed it. The sound is primarily the issue constantly going in and out. Another complaint is that the satellite becomes fuzzy. I'll never purchase another Vizio, I'll be disposing this television very soon.

I purchased a Vizio 75 M75-c1 4K HD LED Smart TV on 03/06/2016. I bought this TV from Sams Club. Now at the May 2016 I started to experience problems with the TV. Once the TV was turn on, the HDMI would lose signal repeatedly. I tried different inputs and noticed that on HDMI 4 and 5 were the most frequent. While the TV was on I could see the picture but could not hear the sound or I would hear the sound and no picture (black screen or screen skipping). I would get a strange discoloration of the entire TV.

Purchased a VIZIO 55" smart TV 13 months ago and it is dark on the left side. I called customer service and they tried some troubleshooting and basically told me I am ** out of luck in so many words. They said the backlight is bad and unfortunately it cannot be repaired so the TV is junk now and I am out $1000.00 and have to buy another TV. They said I should have bought an extended warranty and that with electronics you never know when it will break.

Purchased a Vizio 48" smart tv for Christmas 2014. Forward to July 8, 2016 and while watching said tv the screen goes black but we have sound. I called Vizio and their support guy told me that the backlight went bad and that there is nothing they can do to fix it, that my tv is out of warranty so basically tough cookies. I stated that a tv should last more than 2 and a half years and was told that they build their products to last 7 to 10 years.

I bought a small, 32 inch, HD, Vizio Smart TV from Best Buy for my guest bedroom. After minimal use and less than one year old, it turns off after about 10 minutes. I searched for fixes, found several online, as apparently this is a common issue. I tried all the fixes, nothing worked. I called Vizio, was on hold for 30 minutes, and was told the motherboard they use has defects and would need to be replaced. So why would they sell a TV knowing the main board is defective? The cost of fixing it (nothing offered for free) simply didn't make sense vs. buying a new one from a more reputable brand name. I took it back to Best Buy and the Geek Squad said never buy Vizio products and there's nothing they could do about it except charge me for repairs.

TV broke after only 2 years. They offered a marginally discounted TV in its place. Tried to get TV. Was told that my mailing address had to be where the TV was delivered. I explained to the Rep that I had a post office box. He just became rude and stated I would have to change my credit card to the street address to take the offer. I asked to speak to someone higher. He refused and stated they won't change the policy. I think he actually did me a favor, because it stopped me from buying another piece of crap from Vizio. Never again. Hope company goes belly-up. P.S. Looked into having TV fixed. Told that Vizio has a 2 month plus delay in sending parts. Good luck with that. TV is headed to recycle (Hope they make it into a Panasonic, so it lasts!)

Everything looks and sounds good but after about 30 minutes the audio starts lagging and gets progressively worse. Goes back to good sync when you change channels but deteriorates again. I originally thought it may be because I run the audio through my stereo. But now I'm using the TV's audio and it's just as bad if not worse. Contacted Vizio a few years ago regarding but never got a response. This TV is a pile of garbage. Will just buy a new one soon. I won't even sell this to anyone. Going to throw it in the trash where it belongs. Will NEVER buy another Vizio product again. Total crap!!!

Bought Vizio 55" smart tv Sept 16, 2014. TV failed 6/26/2016, 21 months after purchase and tv was not used at all for 10 of the 21 months. Contacted Vizio and because out of warranty they just gave me lip service and a phone number for service. Called that number and got recording that they would call me on Monday (it was Friday) - call was not returned. I called them again and they said "Try Best Buy to get it serviced." This tv is the last Vizio product I will ever buy. Junk product, crap service!!

Vizio customer service was great when my 32" slimline flat screen tv went out - even though it had been a couple of years since it was purchased! A very nice and helpful technician came out to my house and had it fixed within 15 minutes max. All I had to do was show him the problem and he replaced the motherboard (for free!!!) - and it has worked wonderfully for 4 years since! I use it as my computer monitor everyday and it is so clear whenever anyone else uses it they always comment on how nice it works (and the feed is via RGB cabling not HDMI). HDMI is great for cable tv or broadcast tv, but there are some issues when used as a computer monitor - but that is another story & not inherent to the actual tv itself... the HDMI issues arise out of how a PC outputs the signal, so they would be apparent on any brand of HDMI tv!

I bought a 70 inch Vizio TV from Walmart in 2013. It had a great picture and worked good. One day the screen just went black. You could hear sound. A friend told me there was a recall on that model. I called support and he confirmed. I sent all the info they required then a rude "customer service rep" called and said all they did was extend the warranty to 2 years and I was out of that by a few months but he did say he would knock 250$ off another piece of junk TV. BEWARE OF VIZIO. THEY SUCK.

The TV after 15 months won't power up light comes on then fades away. Contacted Vizio customer service if you want to call it that. Got no help offered to send someone for over 300 dollars and that includes nothing. My mom is 89 and paid good money for this TV. If you look online you will see this is an issue with their product will never own a Vizio will tell everyone I can to stay away from this terrible company. SAD I have always said anybody can sell you products but you find out what kind of a company they are when you have problems. If I could I would give 0 stars.

I was told that my 60 inch LED TV was failing to come on because of a lighting tube was not functioning. I've only owned this thing for less than two years. One should not have to buy extended warranties, just to be able to trust a brand. I own 3 different Vizio products (sound bar, dvd & tv). Best believe I will go without a tv before I purchase another Vizio product!

We had a Vizio for 3 years, so out of warranty. It worked great. There was a Vizio software upgrade last month and as soon as we installed it, the TV crashed. All we could get was the white Vizio logo, and then a black screen. We were told it was a firmware issue and that it had nothing to do with the software installation. Really? The only thing, they said, was to have their tech company do repairs for $379. I spent almost a month going between Vizio and the tech company. Finally, we got a tech person out and the TV still crashed after the repair, except this time we had colored lines all over the screen. Vizio continued to insist this was a real repair issue. All doublespeak to me. In my opinion, Vizio won't stand behind its product; customer support is trained only to tell you they really can't do anything; and the managers give you the same company line. I will never buy a Vizio product again! So disappointed.

Our 2 year old Vizio caught on fire! Thank God my son was awake and old enough to alert us in the other room. I AM GLAD WE DIDN'T LEAVE IT ON WHILE sleeping! No more Vizio's for our home! Every Vizio we have owned is short lived and turns on and off.

OK so we bought our Vizio 60" Led tv a couple of years ago and a couple of days ago we turned it on and it had a black line going from left to right on the mid lower part of the screen. It started dark but then faded. If you got really close you could see that it was 2 lines close together. So after about 3 days later the lines started to kinda fade - turn more white than black. Oh and the screen started going dark on the left side too!!

I purchased a Vizio 60" LED TV in November of 2013. I did not buy the extended warranty and now (2.5 years later) my TV has completely died. It started with 1 black horizontal line which then turned into 5 after only a few days, then it just went off completely. I tried working with Vizio customer support but they were unwilling to help me because the TV was outside the 1 year manufacturer warranty period.

Bought a brand new M65-C1 in February 16, and exactly 4 MONTHS later I have a green line going down the entire right hand side. Called the warranty department and they are more than happy to send me a replacement unit, although "it will not be a new one, but rather a refurb"..... SERIOUSLY?! I have never had a TV go south on me, much less 4 months out of the box, and good customer service, to ME, would dictate that you send me a new replacement. This was the first time I've veered away from a Samsung product, and will be the last. Please learn from my $1000 mistake and the advice of MANY other reviewers on this forum and put your hard earned $$ into another brand, be it Samsung or whoever you choose, just NOT Vizio. Junk.

In February this year, I upgraded my television from a 32" Vizio to a 50 inch Vizio. I thought this was a name I can trust and had no problems with my 32". Came home yesterday to a small black spot on the bottom of the screen. Today there is two 50 cent piece size black spots. They say the warranty is void because I damaged my tv, though I have been home alone all month and have not touched it in any way out of ordinary. They offered to replace it for $350, but I will not be buying a Vizio again.

Bought a Vizio TV 6 months ago, then all of a sudden it just turns off and will not turn back on. That happened on a Sunday late and I couldn't contact their help line. That Monday I called first thing and the lady went through some steps and the TV would not turn back on. She stated that the power source had to be replaced? 6 month old TV mind you. I question their product at this point and wondered what are they going to do. She told me that they would send someone to fix the TV, I was getting a little annoyed at this point because they would not replace the TV. She stated that free replacement only happens in the first 30 days. I asked how long would it take to get a repairman out to look at it. She told 3 to 5 business days, man now I'm really annoyed at this point. So I wait my 3-5 days and nothing.

My less than a year old smart tv was turning itself on and off for about a week. I moved it to a different outlet and it seemed fine, until 2 days later when it just stopped working. The receipt was printed on thermal paper, which after so long is essentially a blank piece of paper. Silly me thought my bank statement with the pos purchase would be sufficient, especially considering it was purchases from a military exchange. Joe ** can't walk in and purchase anything. We were told a copy of the bank statement showing the amount is "not sufficient proof" because anything could have been purchased.

As a long time customer of Vizio, I've enjoyed their products, customer service, and pricing in the past. I recently ordered the new for 2016 VIZIO SmartCast M-Series 65 Class Ultra HD HDR Home Theater Display directly from the Vizio website. The website notes that the product ships within 30 days, so I called to see if they knew if it would ship closer to 1 day or 29 days. The agent had no idea. I ordered it anyway.

Bought a Vizio 55" TV at Target last year and the screen went black. Had sounds. Did a reset and nothing. Unplugged all connections and waited three hours. Plugged the power in. It came back on. I would not recommend this TV.

VO42L - About 2 years after purchase, inverter boards died. Repaired and got another 2 years out of it before it began randomly shutting off. Vizio makes disposable products. Buy them only if you are rich enough to afford to buy a new TV every 3 years or so.

This product has been nothing but a lemon right after purchase. It will not stay on, cuts itself off within seconds of trying to watch Netflix and other such applications. I've tried contacting tech support and read up on fixing this 'bug' to no avail. Never again will I purchase a product made by this company!!

I purchased a new Vizio tv model E701i-A3 serial no. LFTRNXBP1704563 for $1600 from Best Buy. I only got a little over one year use from this tv before the screen turned blue. Sound still works. So annoyed I was forced to buy a new tv. A Samsung works great. No problems. Recommend Samsung 65" curved tv. Then I learned my Vizio tv had a recall and I was never notified. So now my tv sits on a shelf for over a year and nobody did anything to help me or notify me of the recall. I was just ignored. So do not not buy anything from Vizio or BestBuy. This is the worst tv I have ever bought and am upset Best Buy sold it to me. Customer support is terrible. They just keep telling you to call all these numbers. It has a recall. I should have been notified and my tv fixed or send me the part and I will gladly have it installed. I payed $1600 for this piece of junk.

I bought my 55" TV (model XVT553SV) directly from Vizio almost exactly 4 years ago for about $1,350. I registered it with them as soon as I got it. It has worked well until about a week ago. All of the sudden it started having red static/flashing across the whole screen (difficult to see the full effect in pics since it flashes/strobes). If I leave the TV on long enough, it will go away for a while, but then will come back. It happens on all inputs from all devices (including Blu-ray, cable, internet, etc.).

I just got off phone with Vizio tech support for the 3rd time in 5 days. My tv keeps turning itself off and on, freezing up and having trouble with it logging in apps. No real help here, go through a dozen tests, always the same getting nowhere fast. I was told they make log records of calls but this fellow said, "No, they don't". Now this guy is telling me to shut off my router and modem. This should fix my tv turning off and on. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???

OMG!!! What a piece of junk. I bought a Vizio E-series 55" Smart T.V. from Target 1-1-2015 for $660. It broke in two months. Under warranty, but had to do a lot of work to get a replacement unit. Each time it took about two weeks to get a replacement. It broke in three days. Next replacement lasted three hours. Fourth replacement (an upgraded M series) arrived with a cracked screen. Next replacement lasted 6 months. Broke right after warranty expired. You don't get a year warranty on a replacement (I think they are just refurbished junk). I've replaced the main board and T-con boards (Chinese made) three times at $25-29 for main, $8 for T-con. Now it is about to go out again. No other electronics on the protected outlet have issues. The only parts to repair it have the same defects so it's good $ after BAD. I'll never buy (or accept as a gift) another VIZIO anything!!

Vizio sent someone to replace the power board and the mother board. It died again 2 months later. They honored the fact the problem started before warranty expired and replaced both boards AGAIN. IT DIED AGAIN. This time they said to send back the TV and they sent me a refurbished TV and it died in 3 months. Same problem. Screen went black. This is terrible. Do NOT buy a Vizio. With all these complaints, could someone with clout call Vizio on our behalf?

Let me start by saying this TV worked pretty well for about 2 years. Once it passed the second year mark it started showing signs of problems. First problem I started noticing was that the contrast and brightness started going haywire, the darks were excessive to point of pitch black. Second issue was a weird shadow effects that was in the bottom left corner of the screen, just a little round shadow that would eventually disappear. After a few months of that it started flickering and moving from the bottom left corner towards the bottom middle of the screen. That eventually started migrating upwards more and more and now when I turn the TV on the entire middle length of the screen is shadowed, the whole entire middle strip about 3 inches wide and the entire length of the screen.

I purchased a Vizio smart tv. I paid extra for the smart part of the tv, 55" Vizio. Two times the YouTube app would not work. First time it happened I called customer service, I had to unplug the tv, blah blah blah. About 4 to 6 months later YouTube wouldn't work again. I call customer service. They tell me my TV is obsolete and blame YouTube for updating their app, so I have a thousand dollar tv that is obsolete. Customer service thought it was comical, and there's nothing they will do about it. I WILL NEVER BUY A VIZIO PRODUCT EVER! Just a heads up folks, just my story and opinion of course.

I bought a 70" Vizio Television three years ago. Terrific picture, terrific sound, right up until it crashed 9 months later. I called the company, and to their credit they replaced the TV free of charge, as it was still under warranty. So, here I am just two and a half years later, and the 2nd TV has crashed again - the TV would turn on, but it just had a blank screen. I called the customer service line, and although the rep was very polite, about all she could do to help me troubleshoot it was to do a power cycle - which I did twice before I called. That was all she had to offer. Because I did not purchase an extended warranty, and the television was out of warranty, there was absolutely nothing they could (or should I say WOULD) do for me. She advised me that it would cost me $400 for them to arrange a tech to come out and perform a diagnostic, but then it would most likely be several hundred to fix. No thanks.

What a waste of money. Don`t be fooled by positive feedbacks like I was - probably most of them are fake. I purchased the tv and received it yesterday. At first I had issue in using the apps. Each time I try to open an app I got this message: "Connection disconnected", even that I'm already connected to internet. I was able to fix that issue by changing dns. Most of customers still facing that issue, but then I stared to smell something usual. I checked the tv back and there was smoke coming out of the back side of the tv. I turned it off. Now I guess I'll have to change power supply board. I can't return it because I can't afford shipping price. I'm international customer. This is the worst thing I even bought in my life.

I thought I bought a pretty nice tv (MODEL E390i-B0) so the salesman said so, then 10 months later the sound went completely out after sometimes working and sometimes not working. I had all my receipts and registered it with VIZIO so a technician could come to my home and repair it; so he did. The sound was part of one whole motherboard piece that needed to be replaced, the tv being a shell. I did what the technician said, use the tv for while to help break in the new connections before turning it off; of course, feeling suspicious about the new 90-day warranty as thinking maybe this motherboard will not have any sound after a while either. What do you know, the sound stopped working, but not completely because it was only near 90 days - how perfect for them and all I wanted was a refund. So they told me, they needed me to ship the tv to them "expensive" and give them my credit card to use as incidentals.

I am extremely dissatisfied with my Vizio tv. It has had repeated problems with the screen freezing on a certain channel - which began just past the warranty period. Online support has not solved the problem - and they can only recommend a repair technician. I will never, ever buy another Vizio.

Purchased a 50" Vizio TV that died 9 days after the 1 year manufacturer's warranty. After two attempts of the Vizio's parts manufacturer visiting our home and attempting to fix the TV, we were told the TV could not be fixed. Vizio said the best they could give us was a discount on a new TV. $525 for another 50". Guess what? We can buy that same model TV they offered us at Best Buy $548.99. Thanks for the discount Vizio! We will not be purchasing another Vizio because we feel the product won't last more than a year. Samsung here we come.

4K is the newest TV on the market. Just to show you how long we've had our 50 inch 4K television and literally 1 year and 10 days later this TV is no longer working. When I called Vizio and got nowhere they told me that this is an isolated incident and that there are few complaints of this same issue yet the screen going black between 1 and 2 years after purchase seems to be the same complaint for almost everyone on here. I will never buy another Vizio TV and make sure everyone I know does not either. If you can't stand behind your product and guarantee an $800 television for more than a year there is a problem, a serious one. So here we are deciding if we want to spend the $350 to repair it or just put that towards another television brand. Whatever you do, do not buy Vizio. You will wish you hadn't.

I just want to alert anyone who is thinking about buying a TV to please avoid buying Vizio. It's a waste. The customer service representatives are useless and doesn't give a darn thing about the customers. The executive manager "Harley" as he call himself is unprofessional and nasty. I have bought a Sony TV at about the same time I bought the Vizio. I never have any issue with my Sony, but that piece of garbage I bought started given me issue in less than a year.

Purchased direct from Vizio (M60-C3). TV did not work. Repair process took 10 days. Could not fix. Very poor customer service, who would not agree to exchange for a newer model even though I would pay the higher purchase price. Retail stores do this. Vizio said they are not a retail store – basically too bad. Waiting for replacement TV. No other option.

I am a senior citizen on a fixed income. In 2008, I bought a 55% Rear Projection TV that the lamps keep blowing so I wanted to replace it with a smaller easier to move TV. On Cyber Monday, December 2015, I ordered a 43" TV from Vizio (free shipping) for $299. I had a very hard time trying to find 3 men who would move my old 55" rear projection TV but on April 30th, I finally got it moved. We opened up my new TV (the outside looked perfect). But when it was hooked up, the inside of the screen is cracked and just colored lines running everywhere. UPS had delivered the TV. I know I should have opened sooner and checked it out but I couldn't lift it out of the box.

I purchased a 55" smart TV less than year and half ago and the screen suddenly goes black. I completed all the troubleshooting problems prior to calling Vizio. Once calling Vizio, the tech informed me that my television is "busted" and it would be better to just go buy a new television rather than getting it repaired. I asked what Vizio would be doing to assist me in this issue. He informed "Nothing, your television is out of warranty." I then demanded to speak with management to discuss this loss.

My Vizio TV is less than three years old and it will not hold a Wi-Fi connection. Spoke with the customer service and they told me the TV needs repair and it will cost me the price of my TV. This is a piece of crap, no quality and not worth buying...

A week ago I purchased a Vizio P 50 C1. Set it up was a snap with no problems. It had a great picture and I was a happy customer singing the praises of Vizio. I decided that if it was a good picture watching hockey at 60 Hz refresh rate. 120 would be amazing. So on Sat 4/30 got my daughter to help me return to 50" to Best Buy and go to their warehouse and pick up a 55". Now the story turns UGLY. Spent 4 hours on the phone with tech support to figure out it needs to be replaced. That's when they told me it would be 3 to 4 weeks before a replacement could be delivered. So now I am with NO TV FOR 3 TO 4 WEEKS. So much for singing their praises. Anybody need a paper weight. Extremely upset and disappointed. My goal now is to see how many social media sites I can complain on.

I purchased my Vizio Smart TV from Walmart on 7/10/2014 and my son was watching on 4/25/16 the screen went black abruptly and never came back on. Repair team from Geek Squad came on 4/29/16 and told me to repair would cost approximately $700 which was just about the same price I paid for my brand new tv. I therefore decided it was pointless to spend that kind of money for the repair.

We purchased a VIZIO 60 inch tv after speaking with a customer service representative of the company. After having the set for less than 2 years the tv suddenly has vertical lines throughout the tv, multicolored across the entire screen. Thinking of what I was told before purchasing the set I called VIZIO customer service, speaking with a representative in South Dakota and explaining to me that the warranty for the tv was 1 year and I was out of luck. She then transferred me to a "supervisor" who compared their VIZIO product to a CADILLAC, saying that "we all have lemons and I hate to say but it seems you got one", which comparing the VIZIO product with a top of the line car is far fetched.

I purchased this TV because it and Vizio had a good review and the picture was great and it had a lot of desirable features. Less than two years later, and thankfully was still under warranty, the TV died. They said it was the power supply and apparently this is a know issue. Vizio customer support was great and since it was still under warranty, they sent us a refurbished model of the same TV. I would have preferred a new set since that is what I paid for but, I felt it was still better than no TV. Less than six months later guess what? Yes, that TV died. Now they are sending a lesser refurbished model. Again, better than nothing, but I will never buy another Vizio based on being so unreliable. Two years, two TVs died. I expect this replacement will only last a matter of months.

My Vizio TV is only 2 years old - the picture is already starting to fade out. I called Vizio Tech Support and they refused to help me. They told me to contact Walmart Service Plan. They refuse to help me either. Lesson Learned. DO not purchase anything from Walmart or get their crappy service plan. Its a fraud. Also Vizio is a horrible product also.

My 55" VIZIO LED TV will not turn on. I call VIZIO. They told me, it was my power supply. They told me to order one from Jimmy.com, then told me how to put it in. When it did not work, I was told, now that I open the TV up, there not a thing they can do. DON'T BUY VIZIO!!!

I purchased a total of 6 Vizio TVs when I decided to switch from big box TVs to flat screens. I have two homes, thus the total of 6 TVs. So far 3 of the TVs have gone and when I called Vizio, no help whatsoever. Here's their reply... "The TV is out of warranty, we can give the name of a repair agent." They selling a disposable product that will probably last 3-4 years. Whatever happened to brand loyalty. I will never buy another TV from Vizio.

Do not buy TV like Vizio... Very bad experience! Since February until now this TV is defective... The Vizio company sent me two Vizio TV 60". First one worked just three days. Second one arrived with defective (has been dropped). WALMART SUPERCENTER NILES IL DID NOT PUT ANY EARNESTLY to help us with something. The cost of this TV is $1,200 plus $89 for a 3-year warranty.

We spent over 300.00 on a Smart TV. Had many issues with it and should have returned it a week after we purchased it. However we decided to keep it. Wrong decision. NOTE TO EVERYONE. STOP BUYING THESE CRAPPY TVS.

I need second opinion. They ask for pic. They say not covered. I called Best Buy. Claim to customers care. Saying that a pressure point. If you doubt me take tv. I want resolution to this matter. No foul play. Please help me.

Purchased a Vizio 42" on February 20, 2014. Yesterday the screen started having a very dark band in the center of the screen (from left to right). I called Vizio and was informed that it is out of its 1-year warranty and it's unable to be fixed. They told me I would have to purchase a whole new set. Cannot believe the number two best selling brand sells disposable televisions.

We bought a 70" Vizio TV (m701d-a3). The TV cost $2200 and it went completely dead one month after the warranty expired (25 months on a 2-year warranty). I contacted Vizio support and had absolutely no success getting any assistance whatsoever. I called them six times and each time I was told to provide more information. First they asked for a description of the problem. Then they wanted pictures. Next, video. Then they needed the serial number for the TV. Then a copy of my receipt. Each time they asked for additional information, the person I spoke to kept saying they would get me some sort of assistance with the problem.

I am on Social Security disability. I don't have a lot of money for TV's and can't do a lot of stuff anymore. I purchased a 70-inch Vizio Smart TV for my viewing enjoyment. The first TV I had smoke billowed out of the thing and it was only a few months old. Vizio sent someone else and repaired it. Approximately 4 months later the whole TV went out. Called Vizio, they sent me a new TV. That TV a few months later ended up with big white splotches all over it. Called them up, they sent me another TV. Turned around that TV didn't work so I denied it. Vizio turned around and sent me another TV and when the guys got here with it, set it up on my stand, plugged it in at work. I said, "Cool." They left no sooner. Got out of the driveway. This brand new TV went out. Vizio saying that I must have did something to the TV for it to break. Therefore they are not going to warranty my TV even though I have a 90-day warranty on the TV and my extended warranty.

I purchased my Vizio TV from Wal-Mart approx. a year and half ago. Got it home and it performed well for 3 hours then gave out. I took it back to Wally World and got a replacement. Paid over $700 for this THING. Yesterday, April 1st, it died. Gone... Black and quiet... Only one year and half of service. I am 72 and on SS, cannot buy another TV. AND would NEVER buy another Vizio product. Am now looking for something used, local, and cheap. I was so proud of my TV and just loved the big screen, now I am back to watching a 13 inch.

Bought a VIZIO 70-inch Flat Screen Smart TV just over 2 years ago. Watching it and suddenly the screen went black. Still had sound but no visual, tried replacing all the main boards, Vizio said its out of warranty and unrepairable, tough luck to us. Offered us a smaller, older TV at a very slight discount. A $1700 TV should last over 3 years. Ridiculous, their customer service is terrible. Their product is terrible.

Save yourself the headache and money of not buying Vizio products. I purchased at Vizio TV and 5 weeks later the remote stopped working. I thought maybe I need to switch batteries which I did but it still didn't work. I called Vizio and they sent me a new remote. After receiving the new remote I attempted to use it but it still didn't work. I contact the manufacture a few days later because the entire tv stopped displaying any picture despite the fact that the tv was on and they had sent a new remote. The manufacturer had me complete a factory reset, but the TV still didn't work.

I wouldn't even give a star but, it makes you! 60" smart tv. We were the proud owners for 1 year and 28 days! Picture went out and only had sound. The original tech was nice but when they transferred us to see if we could have replaced they were uninterested because past the one year mark! No, we did not buy a warranty but when you pay that much money... we were crazy enough to think it would last longer than a year! Only tv brand we ever bought. NEVER again!

We bought our original TV in November 2014. Had it about 6 months and it quit streaming/connecting to internet. Vizio sent me a replacement, said they would upgrade the TV, but didn't. I did receive the same model I had. We have had it about 7 months and it will power on but no picture or sound. Vizio support has basically said, "Sorry, warranty runs from original TV purchase, not the replacement". I guess that is a good way to hook a buyer but not retain one. Very frustrated since we have no satellite, just a digital antenna connection and we frequently stream movies to watch. Occasionally, the TV will turn on however it will no longer connect to my internet.

The TV no longer powers on at all. It is completely dead. It has been 1 week since I wrote my original experience, which is detailed below. Had a Vizio E600i-B3 60" TV for 1 year and 1 month. It's now a worthless piece of junk that works for 5-10 min. at time. The TV is defective and shuts itself off while viewing. All auto-off settings are disabled. I have contacted Vizio and they were no help. They told me to reset the TV by holding the power button on the back, and said that this is all the help they can give as the TV is over a year old. This issue began a few months ago, after only 8 months of modest usage, but it was not a problem as it took several hours before it shut off. Now it has rendered the TV unusable. We didn't even know it was an issue with the TV itself, until it was too late. I have tried resetting multiple times, resetting TV settings, using different inputs. Nothing helps, the TV is defective, and Vizio does not support it.

We bought our 55 inch Vizio TV at Walmart 2 weeks ago, bought a $50.00 bracket for the wall and yesterday it just... died. I called Vizio. They were going to send a brand new TV to us in 8-10 days but we opt to just return it to Walmart and go back to a smaller television. But it was great fun while it lasted.

Walmart sold me a defective Vizio E-Series 70 inch LED TV. Warranty only 3 month past date of purchase. Recall missed due to not being informed. Customer service was not helpful at all. Vizio sells junk. Don't buy. They don't care. Only want $$$.

I bought a 60" Vizio 4K tv 15 months ago and it has already failed. The "panel" is not repairable so I have a very expensive door stop. I strongly recommend that you DO NOT BUY VIZIO products. They are junk. Tell your friends.

Well history repeats itself. I too am one of those folks that was initially impressed with their product and now I have a boat anchor! The TV worked great for 13 months and then "POOF", a black screen, did have sound but now nothing. Followed all the helpful ideas on-line, unfortunately none of them worked. Have contacted VIZIO and their response: "We are sorry to hear you are having problems, try this..." well I tried everything only to hear "We're sorry but the unit is out of warranty, and cannot be fixed or replaced"! I spent over $650 to learn a lesson. One would think for that kind of money this unit would perform easily for at least 5 years. Performing for 13 months is unacceptable! Come to think of it it won't even make a good boat anchor.

My Vizio tv (smart tv E series) has yellow and red lines after only having the set for 3 years. I called the company and they said that there wasn't anything that could do for me because my 1 year warranty expired. I purchased a two year extended warranty which also expired. What tv company makes a television and it does not last past 3 years? They said the only thing they could do for me was sell me another television. Do you think I would purchase a tv that did not last three years, really. The company brand is garbage and I will never ever purchase another one. I told everyone I know about the quality of their television. Do not buy consumer.

My husband and I purchased two Vizio 50 inch smart tvs january of 2014. Two months ago my husbands tv which he has in a second home developed a black 12 inch line in the middle of its screen. He realized that the 1 year warranty was up but tried to get vizio to help him with either a discount on another smart tv or to fix. They would have no part of it and so we are out one tv. Fast forward today my vizio in my home experienced the same thing. Now we are out two tvs. His has been replaced with another brand and we will be purchasing another for me since vizio will not help us with two broken TVs. Have read several other peoples complaints exactly like ours. Will NEVER buy another vizio tv unless they upgrade their warranty or start making in the USA. I will say it WAS a very nice tv but who wants to replace their tv every 2 to 2 and a half years. Not me.

I recently inherited a 32" Vizio television from a relative. The TV worked fine at both my relatives home as well as mine, it had beautiful picture quality. After a few days I decided I would connect the TV to my home wireless internet. The TV successfully connected to the internet and it began to automatically download updates from Vizio without my intervention/permission. After updating, the TV will now not boot past the splash screen, after which the TV shuts itself off. I chatted with Vizio support representative "Bentley" who had me unplug the tv and hold the power button for 30 seconds and then restart the tv, then suggested the issue was caused by my electrical outlet despite me not having any issues with my outlets.

50in Vizio 240hz 3d smart tv is a POS!!! So OK... Bought this TV and was so blown away by it. It had everything I wanted and more. Bought an insurance plan in case anything happened to it (which I knew would be impossible from my end). Cleaned it all the time and loved having one of the top TVs of the time. Then my insurance on it runs out so OF COURSE I can't have it replaced if something happened. I use it MAINLY for gaming and I come home from work and whattya know. It has a line on the top of screen running from side to side and it constantly shifts the picture when on watching TV or movies. If I even turn on my game console or put the TV in a mode other than standard it losing focus and becomes ungodly fuzzy and is impossible to look at without a major headache in the near future. What a POS!

Had to take time off work for a no show repair, a failed repair, and a failed replacement unit. Over a month of messing around to fix a tv only 8 months old. Not going to buy or recommend VIZIO again.

I bought this VIZIO 32 years ago, and the TV itself is fine, and has no problems. However, I picked up the remote the other day, since I was moving things around in my guest bedroom, (I haven't needed the VIZIO remote for years, as the AT&T U-verse remote did it all), and the rubber backing on the remote was all sticky and the rubber was rotting, clearly a manufacturing defect in the material used for the remote.

Bought a Vizio TV in Feb 2015 and the picture went black 2 weeks out of warranty. Spent 650 dollars and no way should it only last 1 year. I have other TVs that last 15 years. Vizio says out of warranty and it can't be fixed. They should stand behind their products and not make junk. They have no problem selling junk products. The stores shouldn't even be allowed to sell Vizios. I went online and they have thousands of the same complaints.

Each time we had a power interruption the new Vizio 32" in the bedroom crashed and burned. A complete factory reset had to be performed to restore its operation. That means all passwords from your internet wifi to subscribed services. This happened three times in two weeks. Then the remote malfunctioned. It apparently scrambled itself (for some unknown reason). Another search of the internet revealed, fortunately, a reset for the remote. Will I purchase another Vizio? Probably not. I need to spend that extra for that better TV and save myself the headaches.

Full featured, nice picture, adequate audio sound output, built-in interface for Internet, nice controls. TV died after 30 months, can't get it fixed. Terrible investment. Would never buy a VIZIO again ever.

We bought a Vizio 47 inches TV for our new home. We've had it just over 2 years and in the middle of watching it, without warning the screen goes black! No warning. NOTHING. The warranty has run out, of course, so we can't take it back. That's too much money to waste! Please do yourselves a favor and DO NOT buy a Vizio TV unless you have money to waste. We are VERY disappointed and aren't in a position to just waste money!

A year and a half after purchase the screen is completely black. I still have sound. It's disruptive and inconvenient to lose money or time trying to mount, unmount, and repair a tv. Especially when a company has so many complaints that they must know. They are fraud in lots of people and could care less. It's supposed to be entertainment, fun.

Bought a 32' Vizio on 2/6/2015 and the picture quit on 2/20/2016. Contacted Vizio and after sending them a copy of the receipt per their request, they will not do anything to rectify the situation. They said I can go to their website and buy a "Clearance" TV. Too bad they don't stand behind their product. I will NEVER buy a Vizio product again.

So we purchased a Vizio Sound bar system with a subwoofer and 2 speakers included in Feb of 2015. In October of the same year I called Vizio to inform them the subwoofer was not pairing up with the sound bar so we received a replacement. However, one year after the original purchase date we've experienced the exact same problem!!! But guess what there is nothing they can do about it. Vizio can't replace it. Vizio can't repair it (not even for a charge) because it's 7 days after the 12 month warranty. What a joke! I was told nothing can be done because I didn't purchase the extended warranty (obviously I expected it to last longer than 12 months and 7 days).

I bought a 40" Vizio for my mother-in-law, who is 76. It worked for 1 year and 10 months. Then it suddenly developed a large black band across the center (left to right). I spoke to Vizio and they sent me to the company that does their repairs. Those people said nothing could be done and I needed to buy a new ($500) tv. I recalled Vizio and they gave me the brush off. This is an unreliable brand with extremely poor customer service. I advise against purchasing this brand.

We purchased a 50' Vizio Smart TV 1/29/15. The TV had a great picture. However we did not purchase an extended warranty. After reading the complaints, I dont think the warranty would have made much of a difference. On 1/28/16 the TV just shut off. I got it to power back on. Didn't use the TV for the next few days. On the third day no power. Contacted the cable company to exhaust all means. They ran a line check, even came and replaced boxes. Not their problem. Unplugged for 24 hours, came back on for the last time.

I bought a 65" Vizio smart tv at walmart. After 3 months, a red line appeared on middle of the screen. When I called Vizio, they swapped buy a refurbished one. After 3 months a big black bar in the middle. When I contacted them, they refused to help. Vizio is a bad company. Never buy Vizio.

I just read your article posted regarding 70" Vizio television issues and how there was a recall associated with them. I currently am having issues with a 70" Vizio I purchased that fell under this category. I recently contacted Vizio customer service and am at a loss of words with the level of customer service, the quality of product and professionalism your company offers. I am an avid consumer who typically purchases the "New Great" technology when it comes out. I have to say after dealing with Vizio customer service regarding my issues I am ashamed to have invested in electronics with your brand at all.

M43 C1 TV is two months old. Now it starts power cycling on its own about once every 10 minutes and has a flicker in the upper left hand quadrant of the screen. In contact with Vizio and will see what their warranty and customer service is like! So far I am not very happy with this product.

I purchased a Vizio MDL SV420M new sometime after 2009. Almost immediately the sound went out. Vizio repaired under warranty and soon after sound went out again. Vizio repaired a second time, but advised they would not repair again. That should have told me something... That I had bought a problem and they knew it. Soon after, the sound goes out again. I was so frustrated. I bought a LG and put the Vizio in my bonus room. Recently, I thought I would buy a new tv for another room, and decided to contact Vizio to see if I could buy the part needed to make my new tv have sound. I learned that Vizio no longer made the part, and it was unobtainable. This is how Vizio stands behind their product. If you go on Vizio's website to inquire about a complaint, the first option they show is "no sound".

Picture went out halfway. Chatting with them online telling them what was going on with tv. Doing everything they asked me to do and then there was a "Well that's all can say to do. Bye."

$953.00 on a 60 inch Vizio Model M602i-B3, 13 months later ZERO support being offered. VIZIO company and support (can we really just call it Non-support) is the WORSE on the market. Planned obsolescence is the Companies business model. This is a extremely disappointing to me. No one told me that I really should buy a warranty because this TV will fail just outside its warranty. If I knew that, I would have gone with another brand and model. The NON-support team can be proud that they won a battle, but they will lose the war. Buy a warranty if you can't afford to lose $1,000. Better yet read a book.

Had my TV 2 months out of the box and it broke and because it was bought in Nov. 2014 and given as a present Dec. 2015 they will not fix it.

I love the quality for the amount of money we paid. Ours is a 55 inch Vizio and we were thrilled with the detail and color. This tv is now 5 years old and still running strong. Let me tell you something important. When we purchased this Vizio, they were making them in the USA but that's not so anymore. We also purchased an Hitachi Smart tv and it's not so smart. It ran smart for a short while and then out of the blue this feature vanished and no one from Hitachi could sort it out. The Hitachi also has a flaw in the "shut off demo" feature. There is no way to save it and you have to reprogram it with every use. Here we thought we purchased a good brand and have been very disappointed.

For the money Vizio is great but for picture quality Samsung is top of the line. I recommend both but your wallet is what will be the judge of what you will buy. None of the televisions have great sound so I do recommend a sound bar 2.1 or 5.1 with wireless woofer. I have a $250.00 Vizio 2.1 sound bar with wireless subwoofer that I'm very pleased with and will not upgrade to a 5.1 system. It's not worth the extra money unless you have a very large living room and don't live in an apartment. Hope you like my views.

I purchased my 70" Vizio from Walmart during Thanksgiving Day sale in 2013. This TV is in the family room and was watched probably a total of 7-8 months over this 2 year period. I had small issues that raised their head, but I could fix it by unplugging and "resetting" the TV. A week ago a line came across the screen about 2" up from the bottom. A week later, the entire picture and sound goes. I get online and see hundreds of complaints of the same issue with this model and Vizio knows about this. In fact, it was so bad, they extended the warranty for another year. This was probably to save a total recall and satisfy the BBB. Well, they got us!! I inquired about helping out in fixing it. I got the same runaround and answer most others have received. "Sorry, but you are out of warranty and there is nothing we can do"!!!

Let's start off by saying that the company calls their television sets "smart tv"... LIES! The dumbest tv I've ever encountered. Any how, the television set has ONE button. That ONE button turns the tv on/off and selects the setting in which you want to use. There's no volume/menu/channel button, which leaves only the remote control as an option. Well, the option is ass when the television is busted, and does not function with an equally busted remote control. So, here I am stuck on ONE channel and missing "Hit the Floor"... This company wasted their time, the time of the workers as well as its consumers' time. Someone should pay.

I studied at least 100 reviews of various tv sets before buying. I visited Costco, Wal-mart, Best Buy, and a local electronics store to test a wide range of tvs. I chose to purchase a Vizio from Costco for the size, price, features and extra 1yr warranty. We did run into an issue but Costco swapped it out instantly and the Vizio has run great for 3+ years now. I'm still impressed. I bought an additional smaller, more updated features, Vizio last year for a bedroom. On that particular model I noticed that the location/angle for watching from the bed needs to ensure that the screen is at, or above, eye level or it is not really usable. No problem adjusting that. Have loved it since. I've also attached laptops and a PC to the Vizios with no incident - plug-n-play. I may just get 52" and hang in my office to use as my monitor. Maybe I'll get more work done ;-).

Bought this Vizio online from Best Buy. Didn't work from day one. Picture would freeze, audio would cut out, and shut off all by itself. Called Vizio tech support right away. They had me do the unplug from the wall power cycle, wait ten minutes over and over again. Then wait a couple days see if it continues. They did this with me for a year until the "1-year Manufacturers Warranty" expired. 2 days after the warranty expired the TV completely stopped working. When I called to talk to them they said "it sounds like this is a new problem from the one you called about before." And because it was after the 1-year warranty (they) wouldn't do anything to fix it or replace it. Never buying another Vizio product again.

I am now on my 4th 60-inch E-Series. First one bought at Wal-Mart, had big black block in corner. Returned it to Wal-Mart. Got 65-inch, same series. Picture has pixels all over it. Called Vizio, same as every one else had to send proof of receipt and pic of tv screen. They send me a new one, that one same thing so thinking it might be satellite company. Had them out here twice, nope not that. So Vizio send me another one that one same way now. Won't give my money back. They are sending a tv repair guy to look at it. This has been going on over 4 months now. Am extremely frustrated.

I purchased a 24" Vizio E241 smart TV in November 2014. It broke beyond anything I could repair in December 2015. So, a month out of the manufacturer warranty. December is a hectic month, so I didn't have a chance to call Vizio until early January. The rep told me that I was so close to my warranty, they'd be able to help me out. Nope. The next person I talked to told me no. My warranty was up. She was very rude, as was her supervisor. These expensive junk TVs break after a year and Vizio does NOTHING to help the customer. The first rep I spoke with was nothing but nice and told me it was a system issue overloading my TV. Clearly, I didn't cause a system issue. It must have been one of their updates. It broke my year old TV and now it's just a big old paperweight. Do not buy a Vizio product! You're throwing your money away and somehow they're getting by with selling junk and not fixing errors they are responsible for.

Vizio has horrible customer service. My experience with them is their products are not built to last and they won't stand by them. My 50" tv is 2 weeks past the 1 year warranty and they refuse to help. The product should last longer than 1 year for the price. Spend your money on a brand that values their customers and stands by their products. Buyer beware... Do not buy.

Will not ever buy another Vizio after the lack of customer service discrepancies. Bought the tv in March 2015. By August the tv wouldn't turn on. Called. They officially were going to do an onsite swap but then it started working again and I decided to not do it. What a joke. Now I have a tv that is dead and they insist after being told twice onsite swap to onsite fix... What a waste and a complete disappointment. Let's say "Vizio you lost another customer!"

Bought a Vizio TV 60"... Biggest mistake ever. Not even 2 years and tv broke. Started to see vertical lines on the right side of screen. Two days later no sound and no picture. $800 down the drain. Customer service no help, they said it only has a 1 yr warranty.

My Vizio E500i-B1 TV just quit this week. I bought it this TV on February 9, 2015. The TV seemed frozen, so I turned it off. Now it doesn't turn on fully even though LED indicator is on. I tried the power cycle and several other outlets with no change. I spent 600 on this piece of junk. Meanwhile my 5-year-old Sony and 7-year-old LG are working just fine.

I purchased a Vizio 32" TV in September of 2014, I believe this is the correct month, and by the middle of September of 2015 there were neither audio nor visual capabilities. I thought by waiting it might would come on and I could continue watching TV, however, this did not happen. I waited another week and turn on the TV and to no avail. It still was inoperable. I was told when I called the manufacturer, recommended by Wal-Mart rep., that my one year warranty had run out and there was nothing they could do. Now I am stuck with a TV that is barely over one year old and does not work.

Second Vizio to get vertical lines on screen. One after 2 years and last after 11 months. Vizio said panel separation isn't covered by warranty. TV sits in bedroom on stand, never moves. NO MORE VIZIO!

The TVs ARE GOOD for the most part. They keep improving but MOST OF THE PROGRAMMING STINKS. There are so many channels and programs but about 80% are worthless.

I owned a 60 inch and it has a beautiful picture. The color is top notch as far as almost bringing you right in the picture. The sound is crisp and clear. I like the online features like Youtube, Netflix, being able to go online and search. I don't know if I can say much more but I love this product and would recommend this product to anyone for sure.

The slim line construction is perfect for wall and/or cabinet installation. Furthermore, picture quality is outstanding coming from SAT, Cable or Broadcast type antennas.

I have purchased two different sized Vizio sets so far - a 32" and a 40". Both are performing flawlessly. The larger one is newer and has more features, but both have excellent picture and sound, with no issues whatsoever. You can keep the more expensive brand names. These work wonderfully well at much less the cost in many instances.

I own a 37 inch Vizio hd 1080. Had it for 7 years and have had no problems with it. Considering strongly upgrading to 50 inch smart tv w/ 4k. Viewed next to higher priced Samsung and found the picture measurably better w/ Vizio.

It's a great television! Very reliable, easy to set up/operate, and has crystal clear definition. It's my new fave :) Excellent price and my new "go to" brand.

With all of the different models available, and with tons of them being imports it's very hard to evaluate the difference and what are the features that really matter. I really like Panasonic. I tend to go with the brands I feel like I can trust, and my experience with that brand over the years has been great. Bigger is better and clarity is important. The one feature that is the most important is ease of use, give me a remote or app that can guide me to where I want to go, a great picture, need a function that can increase the size of scripts, scores or anything written. I'm getting older and cannot see as well today and find myself sitting closer and closer to the set.

The Vizio television is an exceptional value for the money. It seems to have all the features of more expensive brands, at a lower price. Frankly, most people cannot distinguish the nuances between different brands and the technological differences among them. Considering what is offered in commercial television today, a large expenditure for a television set isn't justified. Unless you're buying a screen for a home theater and plan to show high quality video, suffice to say that almost any brand of TV will work just fine.

We have 6 TV's in my house and my daughter has 1 in her college dorm. 3 of the 6 are Vizio. I've never had an issue with the quality of the picture or the performance. At first I was drawn to them for the price but now it is a brand I look for 1st when I need TV's.

We purchased a Vizio and a Samsung and the same time and returned the Samsung to Costco. The Vizio has never given us problems after 4 years. Also, have another JVC and Samsung and they are ok but not as good.

Quick response in turning on; clear, sharp images. Not excessively heavy and the size is perfect for family use. Thin sleek design looks good in home decor.

The Vizio (model unknown) television I have is easy to work with when setting up for cable TV, VCR, and overall setup when it comes to programming. My previous TV was a Vizio. I've had this TV for 6 yrs and would buy another Vizio television.

I purchased the VIZIO 40 inch LED Smart TV E400I-B2 HDTV on April 23, 2014 from Dell and on approximately November 2015 the television started turning off. I tried contacting Dell on numerous occasions unsuccessfully because although they sell televisions, they do not have a department to service them. After being transferred to 7 different departments, Dell finally told me to contact the manufacturer. I spent over $440.99 for a television as of today January 9, 2016 that does not work. I would like the television to be repaired or replaced.

I have owned my Vizio Smart TV for over a year now and have regretted my decision in buying it ever since. The quality of the picture is great, but that is not the issue. I bought this Smart TV to use Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, etc. for my bedroom. Despite being feet away from my wireless device the TV is constantly buffering my shows and movies and four times out of the week claims to be unable to connect to the internet despite my multiple TVs, computers, and phones connecting to the wireless at the same time. Also you are unable to download certain apps, such as HBO and Showtime.

D Series 39" Flat Screen Vizio Television - Last year we purchased a Vizio 39" flat screen television; however, within the warranty period the television began getting vertical lines on the screen and then a big circle at the bottom until we were unable to see anything on the screen. We contacted Vizio and they replaced that television with a "refurbished" one. We have not had the refurbished television more than two months and the same issue is occurring. We contacted Vizio and they asked us to send pictures, which we did, and they said they would replace it.

I bought this tv from Amazon and just got it. I set it up and found I it only showed black and white. I called technical support and after 30 minutes was told the tv was bad and they would send me a return slip but I had to call another number. I called this number and got another 30 minute runaround and that I would have to wait 24-48 hours before I could do anything. When my customers call with a complaint I make sure it is resolved immediately. I guess Vizio doesn't care.

Hi my name is Gina and my father and I bought a Vizio smart TV 2014 E series and a few months ago, the picture started dimming off and on, never stayed permanent. It was only off and on today. The problem started back up but now it's not going away???

They said I have to go thru Vizio. Vizio stated they would have a repair person 7 to 10 days. I called the 18th and still waiting for service. They are friendly and it will be 3 days for this and 3 to 5 days for that. If they can't make functional tv's don't sell them in the United States.

After one year and three months my 55 inch smart TV is starting to go out to. TV turns on and then after a while it turns off, turn it back on again and it shuts off right away. If I let it sit, it takes longer for it to shut off. I called Vizio and he said that that one year was up and they would send out a repair man and it would cost $350 to repair the TV. This is the second Vizio in my home that needed to be repaired. The other one was a 32 inch. Luckily that one was covered under one year manufacturer warranty. It's ridiculous how all these power boards are made.

55 inch Vizio Smart TV. Highly rated and it's apparent why. We went from a 32" CRT to this and thought 55" would be too big. It isn't and now I wish I had larger. Also bought a separate soundbar (Klipsch) and am very pleased with that as well.

60" Vizio HD Smart TV Model 601d-A3, 1080p, 240hz with 3D. Beautiful picture. Have had for three years with no problems. Need sound bar when mounted on wall since speakers are in back of tv.

We bought this TV when Vizio was still an unknown name, so we got a great price. It has never had any problem in the years we owned it. It has two of every type of input, so it is very versatile. The built-in speakers have better than average sound. I have the headphone jacks wired to a switch box that allows me to use headphones, or connect to a big Sony base speaker. In other words, this TV is perfect for my use.

This is a good product that performs with the best. I recommend it. The features make viewing an outstanding experience. The price was less than others that perform less well.

I had a Panasonic, one of the first with flat screen, but Vizio is far better so far. The Panasonic was over $999 and Vizio was over $400. Love the size for the money. Would highly recommend it. The clarity and color is wonderful. The sound is wonderful also.

I own two Vizio's SMART TVs, 42" 3D LCD, and 39" LED. I think the LED version has a slightly better picture. I've owned these for over 2 years with no problems. I wish the SMART TVs had more options to choose from, but Netflix and YouTube work great. Never could figure out how to use the 3D though, which is why I gave it a 3 on features.

Hard to get the picture to fit the screen. It seems to lose the sides of the actual show. Or games we play and the normal setting just makes the picture real small.

The Image is wonderful and the size more than enough- 47 inches. The features are adequate although not as up to date as today's since this is a 5-year-old model. The sound could be better as overall pretty weak and not very well balanced.

I bought this television at Wal-Mart in 2006 and have had great performance, color and no problems whatsoever, a great television brand. I would recommend this television, and would buy another one with this brand name.
