Customer Reviews
- this TV is a 10 Review by Jagmeister

I purchased my SL 320m about 2 years ago and since then it has been total enjoyment. It gets all resolutions including 1080P, which is unheard of in this price range, the picture is crystal clear the sound is great and it is all around a wonderful HD set. The only situation is I have DirectV connected to it and when the weather is bad so is the TV reception. But this is not Vizio fault. It is a DirectV problem. I choose Direct as they have a lot of HD programming more then local cable, which in this area offers HD on two stations one SD the other HD so if you want SCiFi in HD you have to go to the HD station instead of the SD, confusing and more expensive by quite a bit then Direct.. I am retired and handicapped and would like to upgrade but 32's inch is all my room can handle, and money is tight, but I see VIZIO has added more features to this size that I wish I had. If your in the market for HDTV Vizio is the ONLY TV TO BUY.

I love my tv, I have had it now for 2 years and it still works like it did back then. Up against a 40" samsung that costs more then double, mine looks way more vibrant! I would not trade this Vizio for anything else out there in the market, we are very pleased!

- VL320M from Target Review by Robbie
-
All the online guides advised I should buy a 37 or 40 inch TV for my 13'x12' bedroom. I was thinking the bigger the better too. But I went to Target and they only had the 32 inch and the price was very, very fair (total of $405 plus tax after opening a Target credit card account). So I bought the 32. The good news is that what I saved over the 37 I was able to plow into a wall mount (32s use smaller cheaper wall mounts BTW), a massive Monster power scrubber and surge protector, and a nice wide low profile wall strip to hide the cord and cable.
I went home and mounted the TV to the wall and it looks like a pro install. And I am so happy Target didn't have the 37. It would have been too large. Anything bigger in a bedroom and the TV would have been the primary focus of the room. This 32 is ideal for an average bedroom.
I am loving my VL320M. The picture on the few HD channels I get here are unbelievable clear and natural. I love the piano black bezel. I love the remote control, also piano black, with big chunky clear lucite volume and channel buttons. I have had for a few days now. I am so impressed. This is my first weekend with my new TV and I actually haven't left the bedroom, except to go to the kitchen for supplies, because I am enjoying my new TV.
I highly recommend this TV. Of course you should shop around and get a good price.(Posted on 4/3/10)

- Excellent Review by bjones
-
Our third flat panel, 2nd HD. Best by far. Exactly what we wanted: high quality, great price. Love the contrast ratio. Like the simplicity of the remote. All of our friends agree and are quickly becoming VIZIO fans. A friend with another brand 40" Plasma HD says that she cannot tell a difference in picture quality.
Others have mentioned sound quality, but this has the best that I have heard from most flat panel tv's. Not much room to work with and we are pleased. Its not going to blow you away, but its not pingy like a lot of them.
I was also pleased to find that I was supporting American as well.
Vizio, please keep up the good work!(Posted on 3/11/10)
- Excellent picture quality Review by Mo

This is my first VIZIO, but won't be the last if it continues to impress me as it has the past month. I checked out just about every brand out there and determined that this unit has the best picture for the money on the market. I got mine at Costco and feel I got a very good deal, too. They didn't have many at that time in their inventory, so I can only presume others were taking advantage of the bargain, too. I don't care for the fact that the HD stations come up on my set with dashes (2-1, 4-1, 116-111) instead of station numbers without dashes (2, 4, 116, etc.) I've asked Customer Service for assistance with this, and hope to be hearing back from them soon with a resolution.

- Good for Price Review by Ray
-
Purchased this Vizio basically to go into the bedroom.Replacing and older boxier TV that took up a lot of space.
Since our purchase must admit normally buy Sony products,and can say this Vizio is impressive,especially the picture quality. The price we payed at Target was most definatly a bargin,compared to what was around at the time in a 32" TV and a 1080p HDTV.
Would consider replacing ,when it fizzles out,our downstairs Sony TV with this product.(Posted on 2/7/10)
- VL320M Review by Mary

Didn't intend to buy this TV as I wanted to check out other brands first. Saw it on sale and bought it! Glad I did .... a bit worried about JAVA colour but it matches my black TV stand. Concerned about consumer reports low sound quality rating but seems ok.
Love it!(Posted on 1/30/10)

- What a great surprise! Review by Pat

I bought this Vizio 32" for our bedroom for my wife the TV junky. She is so impressed with it she made me swap it out of our bedroom and put it in the main TV area. I am looking forward to upgrading to a 50"+ HD in a few months and get the 32 back in our room. I also try to buy products that support American workers so keep it up VIZIO!

- Great Picture Quality Review by Angie
-
This is my first Vizio product and I am loving it. The picture and contrast is superb. I am very impress with the picture quality but the sound could be better (no bass) . I purchase the Java 32" Vizio LCD HDTV 1080p, and although the color is a deep brown it looks black (COOL), I am really enjoying the HD picture quaility. My next LCD TV will most definitely be a Vizio. I strongly recommend the product.

- So Far So Great! Review by Artie
-
Like most folks I've been wanting a new flat panel TV. Found one for the right price and loved the picture in the store.
Took this 32" baby home and had the cable guy out to hook it up.
Fired it up and the picture was even BETTER than what I viewd at Target. BETTER!
So may inputs (and in convenient locations) and simple operating functions makes the Vizio the TV you will want to have in your home.
Take it from a picky guy in Sin City USA, Vizio is now tops in TV for me!(Posted on 1/3/10)
- 10 out of 10!! Review by TimB
-
I bought this 32" Vizio LCD HDTV 1080p yesterday as they were flying off the shelves at both Target stores that I visitied. I am extremely pleased with the clarity and depth this TV provides. This is my first LCD HDTV, but I have seen a few of my friends' and familiy's purchases, and I would put this up against any of theirs based on quality and style. They say it's JAVA colored (dark brown) but it looked black in the store and it still looks black in my living room, which is perfectly fine with me as it matches all of my other black equipment. I cannot say enough how pleased I am with this purchase. I may be a Vizio buyer for life!

- Vizio quality unmatched Review by Vizio quality

Bought a 37 in Vizio couple of Christmas' ago, then my daughter bought a 1080p 42 inch a few months ago. This is our 3rd Vizio as this one is for the bedroom. Purchased another cable box to hook up HDMI and Vizio has done it again! Will replace the analog set in the kitchen soon with another Vizio!

- Nice TV Review by MOM

We bought this TV as our first LCD. It has a very nice picture, and setting it up was VERY simple. Only thing I would do better is the sound. Other than that this TV is GREAT we are very happy with it, and the price was perfect.

- very good Review by pati
-
received this today, 11/30/09. My first LCD TV purchase. I did alot of research, quality and price were the top priorites. This fit the bill. I'm very impressed. I bought this to replace the old Emerson for my bedroom, I couldn't be more pleased. The color and clarity are great. Very easy set up and just some minor adjustments and I have a beautiful picture The only minor issue is that I would have hope for a better sound quality, could use a stronger bass tone. However, I highly recommend this product, you will not be disappointed. I am now in the market for a larger LCD TV for the family room and will be looking at the Vizio product. I am very satisfied.

- Best TV Brand Review by Smartbuyer
-
I purchased this tv yesterday 11-28-09. I brought it home. It backs up everyone elses great reviews. It matches. the picture quality is excellent. The set up was easy. I do not have the HDMI cable yet, and the picture is so clear now with my sattelite, I forget it's not on HD yet. I am a ex HP worker, and we tried to make these tvs and there is no comparrison, probally why HP does not make them any more. Vizio this set is so nice I am now a new Vizio customer for life. My other reasons are American Headquarters, American Design, American customer service. When I shop now, I do not buy things that are headquarted or manufactured in another country. I try to buy American made products any time I can. Thanks Vizio. Keep up the TCE= Total Customer Expierence

- Great Monitor for PC or MAC Review by Smitty
-
I bought this primarily as a monitor for my MacBook Pro, and it works great using the MiniDVI apadter to HDMI from Apple. It also works great for my laptop using the old RGB connection. I will probably get another one to replace my old Tube TV because the picture is veiwable from the sides better.

- Outstanding Quality Review by sdsooner

I've had the VL320M for four months and it's a great set. We've purchased five LCD tvs over the years and this is the best. I have it in a bedroom and the picture quality is excellent. Blu-ray output is incredible and I can hear it clearly with the sound turned way down and that's important to me.

- Vizio Buyer for Life Review by William
-
This is my first HDTV and so I took the time and did the research. I looked at all the brands and I love Vizio for many reasons. My reasons included American Headquarters, American Design, American customer service, the Pixel Garauntee, and don't forget the price.
I was a little hesitant about buying a tv that is "Java Brown." When I got it home I was really impressed by this color and it looks great in my living room. Pictures don't do it justice.
So far this TV blows my fiance's Samsung out of the water. I love the picture and contrast. I have had this TV for several months now and am very happy with my purchase. Wouldn't think of buying any other brand. Best value, best picture, best price, you name it.(Posted on 11/5/09)
- Great Television Review by David

We just purchased this set yesterday and I'm already impressed. The set-up was very easy including programming my satellite remote to control the TV. The picture is clear, lighting is even and the sound is good. And that's with standard programming. I plan to subscribe to HD through DIRECTV and expect the picture quality to be even better
