    My very first wide screen
    4 Stars
    My very first wide screen
    I just bought this last week to replace a very old 19 inch analog magnavox in my bedroom that I have had for 14 years. I was originally just looking at various roku models to hook up to my magnavox so that I could stream netflix and you tube movies in bed at night on a bigger screen than my little 10.5 inch Asus Tablet. As usual I glanced at the "what other people bought after viewing this item" section which led me to tvs, and then from there I found this particular TV and it was on sale at the time for an excellent price, and BAM came the impulse buy just as amazon intended by showing that section LOL.I was shocked at how light it is and that I could carry the box upstairs by myself. It was easy to set up and the picture is gorgeous. I'm enjoying being able to stream video from netflix, amazon, and several other apps. I was able to easily connect both my DVR and my region free dvd player within seconds. The sound is a little tinny, not as rich and full and I had hoped.The smart hub is a little glitchy and will not always open when I want it to. Sometimes it just says "starting" but then disappears without opening. If I leave it alone and come back to it an hour or so later it works fine. I don't know why this is and I have contacted the "free tech support" that I am supposed to have for 30 days but not gotten a response. All in all, considering that with the sale price I paid less for this 32 inch smart tv than I paid years ago for my 19 inch magnavox I am satisfied, though I doubt it will last me 14 years.
