5 Stars Great TV, Great features
I’m not geek, but I know a good TV when I see it. Picture quality is much better than my old HDTV, and brighter too. Love the sound features. Easy hookup. I now have 3 LG tvs in my home (42, 32, and 20) so I guess I’m now a loyal LG customer.
5 Stars LG 42LH40 is everything I hoped for…
I’ve had this tv for about 4 months now and it is everything I wanted in an HDTV. The picture is crystal clear out of the box and even though you are suppose to calibrate these tvs, I haven’t had a need to do so. I wanted at least a 42 inch HDTV, LCD (to avoid plasma glare), 120 HZ to avoid motion blur, and under $1300. I looked at a few Samsungs and Sonys but both brands go from 40 inches to 46. I also considered a 46 inch Sharp but wasn’t impressed with the video quality. So the LG 42LH40 is what I bought.
The screen is bright and beatiful and sports in high-def look amazing. The menus are clear and intuitive which makes changing settings a breeze. The remote isn’t anything fancy but I do like the large input button that allows you to quickly switch between devices by displaying large icons that represents your inputs with the active inputs in color. The tv has a on off indicator on the lower right hand side that glows blue when off and red when on. This light also does a little Knight Rider type animation when the tv has been turned on and is warming up. Blue-Ray movies give you the best picture, then high-def tv, then upconverted dvds, then standard-def tv. Standard-def looks pretty crummy but that is to be expected on any large HDTV. Sound is also pretty darn good to be coming from built speakers.
Overall
Pros – Picture, menus, # of inputs, sound, style
Cons – Remote isn’t backlit
5 Stars Great value, excellent LCD for bright rooms
Very happy with this TV after three weeks of use. Wanted a decently priced LCD for my family room which gets a good amount of sunlight (even with blinds closed). LG 42LH40 didn’t disappoint! We primarily use the set for television (AT&T Uverse) and Xbox 360 games/Netflix. HD sports are outstanding and Xbox games are razor sharp. I’ve seen virtually no motion blur from either input.
Setup was simple, plug in the HDMI cables and go. Training the Uverse remote to control the set was painless. Colors were outstanding out of the box in “Natural” mode and the automatic tuning wizard was very easy to follow.
Only small negative so far is mediocre black level. It’s noticeable at night when watching a movie, but I’ve never been distracted by it. Several “professional” reviews knock this set for black levels but I honestly don’t see the big deal. If you want deep blacks, buy a plasma.
Definitely recommend this set to anyone looking for a great value in the 40″ LCD range. Amazon ordering and shipping were great. Shipping company called to confirm my selected appointment and showed up on time.
5 Stars The Dream Machine
Well,after my youngest daughter bought her 6th HDTV and USES all 6 of them, I figured it was time Dad bought his first. I own a computer store so I researched very completely the different brands out, there which all claim to be the best.Forget the hype, this LG 42″ seemed to make the best sense to me for the features it offered for the price. It arrived a day early which pleased me and set-up was even easier than imagined. The sound is as the old hippies said is FAR OUT DUDE!! The picture is PERFECT! NO doubt in my mind that research paid off big time. At 36 pounds, a kid could install this Flat Panel. The only draw back is that 12 hrs later it was $60 less. But had I known how much I would love it, I’d have bought it even sooner. My 4+YR old RCA is now in the bedroom. It too,has a great picture for a 27″ Big Box TV with very good speakers. Sorry ’bout your luck old faithful, but the LG is my new love! Buy it and love it, it don’t get any better than this. D. Diel New Mexico

5 Stars Colby 10.2″ LCD TV
I bought this for my husband’s bathroom when his small TV could not be connected to a converter box on the changeover date. To my surprise we did not need to connect the converter box at all. My husband has enough “debris” on his bathroom counters so not having to add the converter box, TV, and all the connecting wires was pure heaven to me. I simply plugged the TV in and used the new remote to scan and automatically set-up the stations. The picture and sound are clear and TV size is just right!! He was thrilled with it!
5 Stars GREAT LITTLE TV!!!
The tv I received is perfect right out of the box! All elements, i.e. video, audio, housing, are great to me. There are numerous one-button adjustments on the remote control (full-size, which I really like) for video and audio, along with adjustments in the set up menu. I am very happy with this Coby tv and highly recommend it for smaller rooms like a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and den where the viewer is not too far a distance from the tv. If you’re looking for a tv with a screen larger than 7″ but smaller than 15″, BUY THIS TV – IN MY OPINION, YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED.
1 Star Seller Is Irresponsible And Shouldn’t Be On Amazon
I purchased product and then found out to my disappointment that it came from J & R and not Amazon. I only want to deal with Amazon, or I’d go to J & R site. I waited a month with no TV and then contacted merchant. Their response was “sorry, we don’t have it in stock, we’ll refund your money”, which they haven’t done yet.
Why did they charge my credit card if they didn’t have TV in stock? Was it so they could earn interest for a month when they knew they would never deliver product? This is why I only want to deal with Amazon. Everybody else is irresponsible.
3 Stars Nice little TV
I bought this TV for my kitchen when my wife and I moved in to our new house about a month ago. It doesn’t have the best picture in the world but it’s not horrible either. I’m over all happy with this little guy. He helps me pass the time while I’m cooking.
1 Star DO NOT BUY THIS OR ANYTHING FROM AMAZON!!!!
I purchased this television for $149 dollars from Amazon.com and it broke in less than 9 months!! Amazon will only provide you with a 30 day warranty. The customer service that I received was absolutely terrible!! Do not waste your money, the television is cheap and won’t even last a year, and Amazon will do absolutely nothing to help you.

5 Stars Excellent TV for the money
I bought this with birthday money and it is worth every penny. I don’t watch too much TV but got it mostly to use as a monitor for my laptop. It doesn’t come with a VGA cable but you can pick one up at Target like I did for about $15 which isn’t bad considering how useful it is. The TV came very well packed and was extremely easy to put onto the stand. I don’t intend to wall mount it and the stand it came with is very stable and I have it sitting on a desk 3 feet off the ground. The TV also swivels on the stand about 45 degrees. Since the resolution is only 720p its not great for a monitor but it isn’t bad at all. Text is sometimes hard to read but that is easily fixed by enlarging text in your web browser.
I went to several [...] looking for the right TV. I watch a lot of sports and a lot of the TVs in the stores had so much motion blur during fast motion it would’ve been very upsetting to purchase such an awful TV. I think the problem was the screen refresh time because most of the TVs in the store had a 6ms refresh time while this has 4. If you plan on watching sports or fast action movies do not get anything higher than 4ms or you will be disappointed. I really liked the Samsung but in the end decided I didn’t want to pay neither the CA sales tax nor the CA recycle tax so I decided to purchase online. If you don’t have a large sales tax or a BS recycle tax then you might be better off purchasing in the store so you don’t have to wait for it. Strangely enough very few stores carry LG but I decided to take a risk and buy it online and it has paid off very nicely. I wouldn’t even think of trading this for another one (that is until 3D TVs come out).
As a TV it is great all around and the menu offers a variety of settings so you can really play around and see what suits you best. The energy saving feature is another plus that goes above and beyond what I got this for. I am using about a 20 year old set of bunny ears and I can get most local stations in HD though your mileage may vary depending on where you live. Don’t waste $$ on an “HD antenna” if you don’t need it–it’s just a cruel marketing ploy to get you to buy something a standard set of bunny ears will get you just fine.
The only drawbacks I found with this TV is that it has no jack for earphones and it only has 2 HDMI plugs. I don’t use HDMI for my set up so its not really a drawback for me but it may be for others. Since I mainly use the TV with my computer I just use my computer’s earphone jack but since the volume on this TV has a great range, I found I don’t really need earphones as it can be heard just as clearly at a low volume as it can at a higher volume. The speakers give it a surround sound type feel and since they are “hidden”, I think it looks better aesthetically than say a Vizio that has them jutting out on the bottom.
Overall its a great TV for the price and I would purchase again if given a second chance.
5 Stars Great first LCDTV
This was my first LCD TV purchase so I wasn’t too sure what I was getting myself into. I did some extensive research and was trying to decide between this LG and a similar Panasonic LCD TV for about the same price. After going to the store and seeing pictures from both TVs I went with the LG because it definitely looked better than the Panasonic in person.
After experiencing this TV for a couple weeks, I can say that I’m definitely happy with my decision. The picture and sound quality are superb. The pre-set picture settings are really handy and I actually found the standard setting to produce a better picture than anything I tried to set on my own. While it may not have all the bells and whistles that many similar TVs have, it’s picture and sound cannot be beat for the same price. I find myself wanting to watch more TV just to see how clear the HD channels come in. I’ve even had a lot of comments from guests about how nice the TV set itself looks, not to mention the superior picture it produces. For an LCD TV it also has great sound that comes from its “invisible speakers,” which makes for an even better experience. I highly recommend this LCD TV for anyone looking to get a lot of bang for their buck.
5 Stars My First HDTV
Well after much research and a budget in mind LG 32LH20 got my attention and kept my attention. I was looking for more bang for my buck while getting quality in return without going over budget. So many brands to choose from yes but Although I fell in love with Vizio the audio was lacking and the contrast ratio was small compared to LG and I love Samsung but they were out of my budget. LG had the best picture quality with a high contrast ratio and tweaks galore to adjust the picture as you see fit. the audio is top notch for a 32 inch. so for the best picture and audio for the 32 inch Lg was the way to go for me. I also like the invisible speakers and the ports in the back its very clean looking and out of the way. I’m a big movie buff so I brought a blu-ray player as well. Lg I’m a happy man!

4 Stars Not good for SD TV
I ended up purchasing this TV over a comparable Samsung model as it was cheaper and I liked the “Energy Saving” button on the remote for ease in adjusting brightness.
My biggest problem is SD channels look fuzzy. HD channels of course look bright and beautiful – however, as Comcast only offers about 10 HD channels – the rest look blurry! And I understand that that’s a common problem with HDTVs. I also understand some HDTVs handle SD better than others – I don’t think the LG handles it very well.
Another issue I have with this TV are the black levels. I bought this TV to replace a 5 year old 18″ AOC LCD TV and it lacks in picture quality, however its black levels are actually better than the LG’s! I switched back and forth several times while watching, “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” and I adjusted the settings on the LG – the black was much darker on my old AOC and the picture seemed richer because of it – the LG seemed washed out.
I researched this LG model and found how its black levels were not rated as highly as the Samsung. I think a little extra money would be worth it to have better black levels.
I also don’t care for the matte screen. It does reduce glare but I think picture quality is sacrificed.
5 Stars Works for me
This was our first LCD TV and we are pretty happy with it. It is in our rather small bedroom a couple of feet from the foot of the bed and to tell the truth it is really too big. We could have gotten a 26″ or even a 22″. One review mentioned the sound, actually it is the best built in TV sound I have heard. Another review mentioned a wobbly stand. There are four screws you have to put in after pushing in the mounting piece, I guess if you have brain damage and refuse to do anything correctly ever in your life, yours might wobble too. The screen looks great from all possible angles, the only thing I would change is that the images look oversharpened sometimes. I don’t know if that is the signal we are getting, or something the TV is doing, or if we might even be able to change it if we hunted through menus for a couple of days. Not to say that the menus are hard to handle, it is probably no better or worse than any other in that respect, it’s just that engineers generally get carried away. I was disappointed that content from our local stations is not HD, or is still 4:3 format with jaggy graphics. I guess they are just too cheap. But network content getting our signals over the air is pretty much full screen and immaculate. The control is sturdy, simple and well laid out. For example, the buttons are different shapes and sizes, and the power button is well separated from the channel change button. If we move this set elsewhere and get a smaller one for the bedroom, I would get the same thing.
