Better than expected Review by wraith

Instructions and set up easy, picture very good even with a non HD receiver and using S-video; better than my old tube one it replaced in the bedroom.

Truly Vizio, "Where vision meets value" Review by jraf20002yahoo.com

I like its simplicity. Its frame and the base plate with the stand neck attached to the TV and a single thumb screw. The picture is razor sharp and clear.
I love it and i'm satisfied with it.
thank you vizio.
more power to you...

Great TV Review by Mike

This is my second Vizio. I was so happy with my 47" in the front room we bought this one for the bedroom. Vizio is the only TV I will tell anyone to buy. The picture, the colors, everything is spot on. Great job Vizio keep up the good work.

Exceptional !! Review by JEFFRO

Great tv, great price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great TV Review by Bill

Bought this over the weekend at my local BJ's.
This is my second Vizio, the first one is in the main living room and love it.
This one replaces an old clunker in the bedroom.
The picture is razor sharp, very little tweaking. Turned off the advance settings, using standard and normal for Picture mode and color temp.
everything else at 50 and it really could not be any better. Skin tones are spot on, colors pop off the screen. Detail is amazing.

Specs for this price is unbeatable.
Cannot recommend this TV enough.
This little TV will "WOW" you.

Awesome! Review by mcslowpoke

I was looking for a nice affordable TV that wasn't to big and was 1080p. I was surprised at the price and it was very easy to set up as well. I love everything about this TV right now. I just got it yesterday, but still I'm very happy to have it. I got it at sams club as well. 5 stars.

FANTASTIC Review by Terry

Found my Vizio VL260M @ Target.com and couldn't be more delighted with my purchase. It is being used @ my business Cornerstone Barbershop with great reviews. A smart well thought out choice.

Great Sam's Club purchase @ $348 Review by george

Pix is super sharp -- considering purchasing another for an additional bedroom!

a nice tv Review by vamsi

i was excited to have this tv. proir to this tv i had samsung 22 inch which was very good. but vizio is also moving ahead in this tv race. the tv is definitely the best shot for a very reasonable price. my only suggestion for vizio is audio output. i have a bose hometheatre to connect to vizio. but there is no audio output (rca) slot. this is the only missing thing i believe. on the whole it is worth the price.

Worth the price for 1080P Review by Yes

Very nice for the price. Great picture. Like the headphone jack but would like it on the front.

Excellent value for the money at Sam's Club Review by Marie

This television has exceeded all our expectations.
From the sleek design, very nice picture (even without the HD signal) and a good stereo sound, to a very easy to follow instructions. The set up took only a few minutes.
The PAL system movies can be viewed on this TV - another bonus!
A small detail I would like to mention. The screw with attached wire holder is an excellent idea - no tools are required to fasten the base to the television case.
