Which HDTV should I buy?
Answer:
Easily the BEST TV you can buy in that range is the 32 inch VIZIO. You can buy it off vizio.com or Sam's Club and Costco. It's an awesome TV and they just DROPPED THE PRICE like 2 weeks ago a hundred bucks to only $600. ... I'v noticed there are a lot of people on here that act "big and bad" and tell you to only buy the top brand tvs. These people are probably poor and can't even afford a cheap one, so they tell you to only buy the best. CONSUMER REPORTS says there really isn't much of a difference in these TV's. The Sony's and Sharp's may look a little better, which they are, but lower end companies aren't putting out garbage. DO NOT LISTEN TO THE LOW END HATERS! Vizio's on cnet.com get between a 6-7 out of 10. The highest TV the have ever reviewed is like 8.2. That is not much of a difference. Vizio also gives a full 1 year warranty. With the price just dropping, this is an awesome deal because it's not going to drop again any time soon.

With all this talk about vizio, you would think that I worked for them... To tell you the truth, I actually returned my Vizio the other day in order to buy a 42" Sceptre 1080p off of costco.com. Sceptre had made computer monitors since 1993 and cnet has given a lot of their monitors 7-8 out of 10s. Trust cnet! Don't trust random people on this site.
I initially bought a 32" Vizio.
Returned it and got a 37" Vizio.
Returned it and waiting for 42" Sceptre 1080p.
The 37" inch vizio is two hundred more at $800, but that five inch makes a HUGE HUGE difference when comparing it with the 32.
The jump from 37 to 42 doesn't seem quite as big, but I am actually upgrading for the 1080p.

Costco (online) gives free shipping, but I had to sign up for a membership ($50).
Sams Club (online) requires shipping and a membership (I think $40).
*****UPDATE*****
I see I got a thumbs down, probably from the guy below me. For someone to say that a Samsung is bad and a Toshiba is much better is dead wrong. I AM NOT FIGHTING FOR YOU TO STAR MY ANSWER AS THE BEST! The 32" Vizio is the #1 selling 32" TV in the country. So if this guy is right and everyone in the US is buying a bad product that will short out in a year, Vizio is getting sued and your getting your money back. I am tired of people on Y! Answers considering themselves more of an expert than consumer reports and cnet.com. Don't tell people that they should only buy Sony when you have a store that only sells Sony. That's completely wrong and misleading.

I have Sony Bravia which i am very happy with. As for the cost, you will have to check Sony's web site.
Iam sorry, but buying your TV from a discount store, its cheap for a reason.
The good brands are below.
Sony
Toshiba
Pioneer Elite
Mitsubishi
Hitachi
Anything else is junk.
The worst brands are : Vizio, Visco, Sanyo,Samsung,Phillips,Emerson... walmart units.
These units Might have good specs and features, but thats not what quality means. Quality=Longevity, the quality of the electonics and design/robustness.
