Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, LG all have good products that are built well.


Oh yeah a lot of folks forget about them but a great place to buy a TV is Sears. you can buy their extended warranty and before before the first year is up you can cancel it and get your $$$ back. This is nice becasue if the TV breaks after 30 days (their return policy) you can still bring it back as a normal return they will just switch it out. If you don't have it you will have to deal with the TV manufacture after 30 days and that means a lot of red tape.

That's where I bought mine.

Did get the service plan...never do on anything else, but I blew a speaker and they came out and replaced both speakers no charge, plus, I was entitled to a visit for them to come out and recalibrate it every year for the 3 years, which they charge like $125 for without a warranty. Did not necessarily need to be done, but why not...it was not costing me any extra.
