User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Great picture for price
I’ve had this TV for almost 4 months and am very happy with it. The Picture is great for the price, with very vibrant colors and contrasts. The blacks are not as dark as you can find on more expensive TVs, but are as good as you can find in this price range. The DVD is noisy, which is really unfortunate. The Speakers are ok, but nothing great. I’d highly recommend this TV if you are looking for a TV that you will output sound to a stereo receiver. I actually found this at a price less expensive than the model without the built-in DVD player! Also, the high number of HDMI and other inputs is really fantastic. I do not regret this purchase at all!

4 Stars LG 32LG40 with DVD: my first HDTV
This is my first HDTV and I have installed it in a small room of my apartment. Thus far, I have no issue with this TV at all. (Please note: I am not a sports nut or avid watcher of TV.) Though it is 720p, I did a bit of reading beforehand: for this screen size, 720p suffices. As critiqued, the black did not seem as black as other TV sets I viewed in stores before purchasing, however, in my apartment I don’t notice that at all. Skin tones are very natural and colors are vibrant. The built-in DVD player works just fine. I do not notice any loud noices as reported in other reviews. For the money and specs, it is a good, value TV.

3 Stars good, but DVD is noisy
great design, easy installation, quite good picture, but the DVD is disturbingly noisy when watching a movie. It can be heard despite the sound of the movie.

5 Stars Pleased so far.
This was our second attempt to purchase a LCD television with a built-in DVD. The DVD player in the first one quit within the first week, and the warranty required us to send it out to be repaired, so we took it back and bought this brand instead. We have it in a bedroom and have had it about a year. It gets plenty of use, and so far the only problem we had was easily remedied. One day, when I tried to eject a DVD, it wouldn’t come out. I panicked, thinking this one was going out to. All I had to do was unplug the tv, wait a minute or so and plug it back in. It reset and works fine again. That was several months ago, and that was the only issue we’ve had with it. Picture seems fine, no little spots like we sometimes get on the larger LCD in the living room.

1 Star Amazon gets a zero
You provided the product as promised and on time. The reason you get a horrible review is because Amazon is horrible. Thier customer service rots. I ordered items direct from them that reached me weeks past the due date and they won’t respond to me requests to return them. I get the same form letter garbage every time I try to contact them. Amazon is crooked. Maybe they’ll find time to reply if I keep embarrassing them enough times.
