    RCA 42" 1080p Full HD LCD TV April 08, 2011

    We bought this TV right before the Superbowl 2011. The picture is great. the HD is amazing. Hooked it up to surround sound which makes this TV hard to beat. We hung it on the wall and couldn't ask for an easier time in doing so. I truly recommend this TV.

    You won't be happy for very long. October 17, 2011

    After reading the mixed reviews on this tv - about how it was either the best tv ever for the price or how the owner had problems with the tv after a few weeks, I decided to buy the tv anyway and hope mine wasn't one of the tvs that had problems. Originally I was very happy with the tv. The picture was good for the price as the reviews had suggested and the sounds was ok (we ended up supplementing with a stereo set up). The only issue I had with it in the beginning was that one of the HDMI ports was loose or something because it would randomly disconnect from my computer every so often or wouldn't recognize the sound, but the other ports worked fine.

    I've only had this tv for 5 months and one day in the middle of a movie the screen started fading to black on the left side and made its way across the screen within 5 minutes. The picture I've attached was taken at the last stages of the tv's death. As you can see there's only a strip of screen left.

    Obviously I'm not very happy with this tv anymore, and I'm pretty pissed that I have to drive an hour back to the nearest Kmart to return it (not to mention I had to finish my epic you-need-a-big-screen-for-this-movie on my laptop). If you're the kind of person who updates their gadgets every few months anyway, go for it (and buy the warranty if the store offers it while you're at it). But if you're like me and you expect a tv to last a few years, look for something else.

    "Watching The Smurfs" on my new RCA-42 1080p FULL HD LCD TV April 09, 2012
    via Community Review
    By Rocssue of Gaston, SC

    I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed watching "The Smurfs" on my new TV! I really felt like I was there some of the time. The color was fantastic and watching it in HD was really amazing! I ended up watching it a second time to enjoy the special effects! I really recommend this product and if you purchase it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!
