Strengths: Excellent HDTV for your money.
Weaknesses: 1.Standard definition picture is worse then on my old CRT. 2. Switching between inputs takes time. 3. Every time you switch from HD to standard def. there is an annoying prompt on the screen.
Summary: I bought it in the beginning of April at Sears and love it. It has all the features that I need and nothing that I don't. Just enough inputs to connect Cable box, which I hooked up through component inputs, DVD player through HDMI input, VCR through composite inputs and I still have S-video input left for other options. There are better HDTVs on the market, but if you looking for the best value, this one is for you.

Strengths: The biggest strengh is the 1080 resolution capibility
Weaknesses: Mounting options. There should be an easyer method to mount in a corner situation. A mount option from the companuy should be offered.
Summary: 2006-05-20 19:42:44 The price for this item is reasonable the quality meets or exceeds other companys in picture. The HDMI connection was a selling point. The 4 inch depth allows for easy standup use on a table.

Strengths: The clear picture is amoung the best but the price sets it apart.
Weaknesses: None
Summary: This must be the best value for a 42in HD TV. The picture is what you would expect and the sound is acceptable but could benifit from additional speakers. I would by it again.
