VA22LFHDTV10T

Product Review (submitted on December 23, 2009):

Purchased this product because it was on sale a Target for $229.99. I compared this tv to others from 19" to 26". We watch tv sitting on the floor as well as at normal seating level. Most of the tvs I compared to the Vizio were much poorer in picture quality when viewed at an upward angle. The picture became very dark; some were unviewable. The Vizio remained decent. At normal viewing angles, the Vizio had a better picture (oddly a Sylvania LCD had a comparable picture). At home, I watched the Vizio through a cable box converter (nonHD). I used the coaxial connctn., then the composite connctn. The picture was decent with both connctns., although the composite connctn. was slightly better. A week later, I hooked the tv to a HD converter...the HD picture was superb. Even the non-HD channels were much better. The contrast ratio isn't that of a high-end Samsung or Sony Large screen, but the picture is excellent. There are a few settings/adjustments if you want to play, but I thought the picture was great with the factory settings. Tv is very easy to hook up, and the instructions are very helpful. The only minor complaint would be that it would be nice for more different types of output connections for connection to home theater/home audio systems. One is provided (there are ways around the lack of connections via home theater receiver connections). Sound is good with decent amount of available volume. Overall, excellent tv, especially at $229.
