- Our 3rd Vizio Review by Tom

We had Purchased two 32" TV's for our Bedrooms and were so pleased with their performance that when our Plasma Tv in our Living room gave its last breath after only 4 years and a lamp replacement, we immediately bought a Vizio V0420E. The picture and sound on all 3 sets are fantastic. Thanks Vizio

I bought the vizio vo420e on 2/12/10, after about three months of recearch. This is the best tv i have ever owned. I love this tv it is a new member of our family. We enjoy the crystal clear picture. The picture is even better watching movies on blu-ray. All I can say is thank you Vizio. The purchase of this tv has brought our family closer. We have movie night all the time. You have a big thumbs up from me and my family.

- Excellent Picture Review by Miss Vick
-
I purchased this 42" Vizio this past summer and I have been enjoying it ever since! The price was great only $648 at Walmart. Its just big enough but not too big. The picture quality is excellent! I compared it to other more expensive brands side by side in the store and I couldn't see that this tv had any less quality than the others. I will be purchasing the 32" very soon to replace my old tube tv in my bedroom...can't wait:) Buy this tv you won't be dissapointed!

- Awesome TV Review by Ron33843

A few years back my wife and I purchased a RCA 61" HD rear projection. It went out once in warranty and the last time (Christmas night). We moved the 32" Vizio from our bedroom to get by. We then went TV shopping, enough to make you dizzy. We looked at side by side pictures. Did all the price checking. We were more than happy to return to Vizio for our 42", plus it was on sale at Wal-Mart. Out of the box set up and watching all within 10 minutes. What a crisp vibrant picture we have. Great sound to boot, turn on our surround sound and we don't need to go to the movies. Thanks Vizio.

- Amazing TV Review by Lou

I just bought this flat screen tv last friday and set it on our living room. I was so happy when I opened the box and put it up on a new tv console. It looked so nice! I hooked it up myself to our old cable box which is not an HD and the picture looks good. I am so satisfied with this purchase , its our first. We hope we'll enjoy it for many years to come.
