Crowd Pleaser Review by Liochem2010

After shopping at many stores and viewing online many others, I had set my sights on this model. My 42" Vizio is just the right size and man does it complete my home theatre setup. Out of the box the set is ready to go. Hooked it up to my little HDTV antenna, my HDTV cable box and also to my Dolby digital receiver. The picture quality using my outdoor antenna is unbelievably realistic. Watching the world cup, movies using my blue ray player (dvd or blu ray disc) is something I look forward to when it is time to enjoy some tv time. I consider this to be the best bang for the buck and you cannot go wrong with this model or this brand. It is the bomb and I also had been getting so many compliments on the look and feel of the set other than the picture.
thanks Vizio!

great TV Review by None

I bought this TV in June of 2009 at Walmart and saved $100 by waiting a few days and getting it "Site to Store". It was my first HDTV. I bought this TV in stead of the XVT and saved several hundred dollars. I subscribe to Dish Network, and I upgraded to their HD package. The picture is great. I watch alot of sports, and the picture is awesome!!Some have said the sound is "tinny", but as far as I am concerned the basic found is fine for general TV watching. For movies I always turn on the surround sound, so the basic sound is not a factor. I would recommend this TV to anyone!!

Researched for the Best & Got It Review by SniddlePoof

I did a lot of research on all those TV abbreviations and I feel the VT420M was the best deal a person could get. The TV is Outstanding! The best I've ever owned or seen.

I bought through Wal-Mart ($748) with Site-to-Store.... never do that if you want it anytime soon. It took 11 days to travel 125 miles. I could've gone and gotten it myself and the round-trip would've taken 4 hours, at best.

The 40 watt speakers are twice as good as you normally get in an LCD. I can hear it set to a "15" in my living room. I don't need a sound bar, home theater or need to put the volume up to even close to the maximum.

The picture is so real, like 3D real. The smooth motion is awesome. You won't waste money on this TV.

comparing tv's Review by danpok

Went looking for a new flat screen tv, Walmart, Sears, Best Buy and Target. Knew i wanted a Vizio just from friends comments about them. At Best Buy, the salesman tried to sell me a Insignia saying it was comparable to a Vizio. I had already seen the VT420M on display at Walmarts and the Insignia was not comparable, told the salesman this and he got angry over it, said to me and i quote" Best Buy used to sell them and stopped, and I'm proud they did, I dont like Vizio.." So i told him in a fairly salty language what he could do with the Insignia and went back to Walmarts and got the Vizio VT420M and am mighty proud i did, thank you Vizio for a great product.

Vizio hits the mark.....Again! Review by Justin

I bought my first Vizio around 4 years ago from Sam's Club. It's a 37" LCD 1080i with a 60 hertz refresh rate. At the time, I couldn't beat the price and the picture quality was great. This was a steal at $900.(All others were well over $1000) I have only had 1 complaint with this TV in the past 4 years, I built up static electricity walking over my carpet and I "shocked" the power button on the side and now it no longer works. I have to use the remote to power on or off. Last night I bought the VT420M at Walmart for $748.00. Again this is a steal with all other TVs of this quality being around $1000 to $1200. This one blows my older Vizio away (along with other more popular brands) Out of the box, it only took me 3 minutes to put the stand on the bottom and then another 2 minutes to hook up all of my cables to the back. So, within 5 minutes of opening the box, I put in a Blu-Ray and was enjoying my new Vizio. My older 37" model is now in my daughter's room, and she loves it. In 4 short years Vizio has improved themselves by leaps and bounds. I can't say that I will ever buy any other brand.

VT420M 42" LCD Review by TJk

I bought this TV for my living room in my new house. I already owned a 32" vizio plasma 720P and the picture quality was great. But this 42" vizio 1080p Full HD 120MHz is one of the most amazing televisions I've seen. The people look real and the picture is very great. I got this tv on a sale and just realized that I spent way less than what it is worth. Thanks Vizio, I will continue to buy your products!

I Heart My New Vizio VT420M Review by MeloYelo

This is my first flatscreen hd.....I LOVE IT!!! I shopped around for about a month before I bought a new television because I knew it would be a total investment and.....I wanted a good quality television. I would go to the store and compare each televsions picture quality and over and over Vizios pic quality was GREAT!!! My brother owns a 47' Phillips which is great, but after watching my Vizio he wants one too. Why not its a great t.v. for the price!! I feel like I am watching hi-def movies or shows on the BBC channel, the pic is so crisp and clear "Amazing"!!! I love my new Hd; I would recommend it to anyone...great price, great picture, great sound, great color, and being able to hook my laptop, cell phone, mp3 player up to it....Totally Satisfied. I give the t.v. 5 out of 5 stars!!
