Insignia VS Vizio

[bigaudiofanati2 10+ year member]

Well this coming christmas I will be in the market to buy a 37-42 inch lcd tv. About 2 years ago I bought a Dynex tv on black friday. Brought it home hooked it up to a BR player looked amazing. Well funds were short so the tv went back. This time I have the budget for it. So I keep seeing commercials for vizio and how they are the best and bla bla bla. So which one should I choose? Will be used for 80% movies and 20% tv watching via antenna. Also looking at dynex which is sort of the same as insignia only I have head insignia is a bit better.

if you're purely asking about build quality/reliability, i can vouch for vizio... have had 3 of them, 2 lcd for least 2 years and 1 plasma since last christmas and no problems...

I agree with that fix.

Also I have heard and seen a lot of vizio tv's being returned when I walk out of a store do not know if it is because a kid forgot a strap for his wii remote or what.

Its unfortunate that you and the rest of this thread are that uninformed. LG, Samsung, and Sony make the top 3 TVs on the market right now. They also had the top 3 on the market a year or 2 ago. Vizio isnt even close in quality or customer service as any of those 3 major companies.

top 3 tv manu. available are sony,samsung,and mitsubishi...oh and panasonic is up there wit them...toshiba is a great budget tv...and rite below it falls lg...vizio and insignia are b panel tvs...warranty isnt all too great...if ur on a budget look into toshiba and dont wrry abt extended warranties...typical probs happen in the first year..most problems after that i have seen to be accidental damage rather than manufacturer damage

I'd say Insignia as i have the 37" LCD and its great video quality, I have seen some Vizio and they dont see to have as good a quality but i would suggest going and looking at each one you like then write down the model number then order online.

fyi..i believe vizio have the same build quality as dell tvs...which are no longer around....should give u an idea of how great vizio is
