IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WATCHING 3D CONTENT

You may experience discomfort while watching 3D content. You may feel symptoms of eye strain, vision fatigue, color or depth distortion, motion sickness, nausea, dizziness, disorientation, or other discomforts. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop watching television and take a break for at least thirty minutes before resuming. If the symptoms are severe or continue even after you have stopped watching television, consult a doctor.

Even if you do not experience any of these symptoms, take regular breaks from watching 3D content.

Take care to monitor children’s watching of 3D content. Children (including teenagers) may be more at risk of experiencing discomfort while watching 3D content and less likely to report symptoms. Monitor children’s television viewing and watch for signs of discomfort.

Some viewers may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or strokes when viewing 3D images, even if those conditions have not been previously diagnosed. If you or anyone in your family has a history of seizures or strokes, or if you have any other reason to think you or someone under your supervision may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or strokes, consult a doctor before watching 3D content.

Excellent 3D TV Review by Master-T

I have owned this tv for approximately a month now (purchased at walmart.com free site to store delivery). It is an excellent buy. The 3D is exceptionally good and you dont have to purchase expensive 3D glasses to view 3D movies, although, you will need a bluray 3D player and some very good 3D movies. It came with 4 pair of 3D glasses, plus i have a pair from a local movie theater that work just fine. The initial setup is easy. had no problem connecting to my wi-fi internet. It also has a standard Ethernet port for direct connect internet access. This unit produces an awesome picture that is extreemely clear and sharp. The audio is good, however, there are times that it seems that the audio is being compressed, so that the volume fades a little at times. But this is very minor. I am very pleased with this tv and would highly recommend it. Oh, yeah, it has severl available apps pre-installed (youtube, amazon.com, etc, plus you can add or delete as you desire). I bought it for the 3D features, and I am not dissapointed.

Best bang for the buck Review by Rich

I have had this TV for about 6 months now; also have 3D's from Samsung (C9000. E6070), LG (PZ550), Panasonic (TC-PGT24) and another Vizio (42 inch M3D series). Visually very little loss compared to active 3D (which may be minimally superior). No question that this TV is the best value (the LG plasma probably second)-can it rival the newer Pnny plasma ST60...no, but it's awfully good in its own right. Were it available in a 70 or 75 inch I'd be at Costco tomorrow (hey, the additinal year warranty is very worthwhile!) Go with Cnet calibrations and you'll be very happy!

Great TV Review by Chicago Boy

Got the tv and plugged it in and started watching shows. Every thing seems to work fine with great picture quality. I installed a vizio sound bar to get better audio. The mute button does not work with the sound button. I would recommend this unit to anyone.

Great buy Great experience Review by Sal

After many months of research and looking purchased this unit at Costco with manufacturers discount and could not beat the price! The quality is exceptional, and the setup is very very simple. Contacted tech support with a question, and it was answered to my satisfaction in a minute. Enjoyed a movie that afternoon! Highly recommend.

Love It! Review by Dee

Love the TV a lot :) It's the best one we have so far. I would highly recommend it!

One downfall for us: We have a Vizio soundbar/sub woofer and we are so use to hooking the red/white cable to the audio out jacks on every TV set from Vizio, but they changed it now. We have to go out and get an Optical cable now. There are no audio out jacks anymore :(

Other than that... it's a wonderful TV set.

vizo got it right i love it the 3d is the best ever.

Amazing bang for your buck Review by napqueen

We purchased this TV from Costco and could not be happier. Excellent picture, incredible 3D, and mostly easy menus. The speakers aren't awesome-- sounded blown out when playing low notes in a 3d movie. But most people are going to connect a sound bar anyway-- we use HDMI to run it through our Home Theater. Customer support helped me set that up-- it was all about the CEC menu. Customer support answered quickly and was friendly and committed to helping solve my issue. A great purchase!

All Products are "GREAT" Review by normc

This TV performs better than spec's stated. Replaced a heavy 50" Vizio plasma which was super and was concerned about picture quality and daylight viewing. This TV's picture is just as great as the plasma. We also have the Vizio BluRay player which has played all the music CD's as well as all our older DVD's we have tossed at it. Yes, it also plays the newer DVD's.

Special NOTE: The best part of Vizio is the "SERVICE". It's just leagues above all others. We have been a customer for over 6 years and the support just gets better. I do not know how they keep the service people so motivated and knowledgeable.
