REVIEW SUMMARY

This set did not wow us, but it does offer medium range features and displays a decent picture with crisp clear images. It would make a good TV for average everyday viewing, placement in a bedroom or living room. It’s price could use some downward adjustments, if you can find a deal on this set it could be a great buy. See our deals section for more information.
