I'm interested in purchasing the Vizio 37" LCD HDTV. I'm concerned about it not being a 'name' brand and being cheaper ($1499) than others that I have looked at. I'm also looking at the Samsung 40" LCD which costs significantly more - but not sure worth it when compared to the Vizio. Any feeedback would be appreciated.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Samsung is the parent company of Vizio, so they should share similar technology. |

I looked at this TV at Costco yesterday...wow amazing....the best LCD I've EVER seen. No smaering at all..probably due to the 8ms response time...I'll get one of these for sure.
P.S. Nope I'm not an emplyee of Vizio!!! :-) |

As a Christmas present for me, I purchased this screen at Costco ten days ago. The quality of the set is very high. It has multiple inputs (analog video, component, RGB, S-Video, HDMI), built-in Digital and NTSC tuners, and PIP. It has a great HDTV picture, and it does equally well with progressive DVD and broadcast NTSC. (The white is so bright that it almost hurts the eyes! And that is after a proper setup with DVD Essentials). I am pleased with my purchase, and recommend it - particularly with the great price and the generous return policy at Costco! |

Just purchased one from Costco as well. I am totally overjoyed with everything it has for the price.
I first just set up my Dish network input and it was a nice great picture but when I hooked up my old antenna in the attic and pulled in all of Chicago High Def stations it was just unbelievable how great the picture was.
Very happy

I did a lot of research before stumbling across this particular Vizio LCD, including with a good friend of mine in charge of the HD Lab for Ziff-Davis. The encouragement I've just read here seems like additional icing on the cake -- gonna go pick one up from Costco ASAP (as a holiday gift). |

You guys are right on the money. I would highly recommend this unit. A+ in my book. |

i bought one 2 days ago from costco ($1499)and haven't left the apt since. i am so happy with my vizio 37. bought it with a upconverting dvd player (toshiba sd-4980) connected via hdmi and the picture is beautiful. over the air hd is also very beautiful. the contrast is listed at 600:1 but i can't tell the difference. |

I have the same question as the person two posts back - does anyone have a recommendation of Westinghouse vs. Vizio? BestBuy just put the 37" Westinghouse up at $1395, which seems like a big drop in price. |

I can clear up any ones uncertainty they have about which lcd flat panel 2 choose. I own a high end home theater consulting and custom instalation company and have been in the industry for many years and have seen all the tvs available in person and have tested them, both the popular brands and the nevr heard ofs. The question of Vizio37" or Westinghouse37"? Though its moreexpensive, No question, the westinghouse. Higher resolution, betterblack levels, and much closer to a REAL 8ms response time. The Vizio says 8ms because of a loophole in how they are allowed to time it. In reality its closer to a 12-16ms refresh. Another choice over the vizio but at the same price level, the soyo 37". At the top in contrast ratio, brightness, and refresh rate. Not to mention the best speakers ive heard, and just overall, an impresive flat panel at any price. the 6 in 1 media card reader is a nice feature also. Hope this helps you guys with your decision. |

Bought the Vizio 37" LCD from Costco for Christmas (paid $1495). Great TV for price and value. Would highly recommend it to anyone. I have a Comcast HDTV connection and the TV works great. Sound is excellent with many options on how to project it; and the product seems to be well built. From the previous post I would not worry about if it is truly 8ms or 12 ms response. I think it would be very difficult for anyone to distinquish that except for gamers (but I do not think you want to use an HDTV for a game console). Costco seems to have a very nice return policy if you are not satisfied, sure beats ordering from the Internet than trying to ship it back if you do not like it. I think the other manufactures will be sweating it out with this competitor on the market. |

Actually, many of us do like to use the HDTV for game console and computer monitor and LCD is the best choice since it does not suffer from burn-in like plasma does. |

Hi all,
I visited Sam's Club and saw the Vizio 32" LCD HDTV ($896). I love it.
I then went to Tweeters and BestBuy. They both have impressive units, but can't beat the prices for the same size. The salesman at Tweeters confessed that he bought on from Sam's. |

I got the Vizio 37" LCD from Costco over the holidays as well and am quite pleased with it. But... I also now see Vizio has a 42" plasma at a price not much more than the 37 LCD. Can anyone comment/compare these two? |

I just bought the 37" LCD Vizio and love it. I too have Comcast and the picture looks great. I'm not sure I'll watch regular television again. HD has such a beautiful picture. If your in search of a universal remote code for the Vizio try codes listed under Samsung. I used 0030 for my comcast dvr 3. Good luck to all and enjoy the show! |

mdconnelly, in march 2006, costco will have the vizio 42 plasma on sale for the same price as the vizio 37 lcd. i have yet to see the picture quality of the vizio 42, but comparing the vizio 37 vs vizio 50 side by side, my wife and friends both think the vizio 37 pic quality beats the vizio 50 hands down. now that i know the sale is coming up, i'm torn between buying the vizio 42 with the bigger screen versus the vizio 37 with most likely a better pic quality. |

What about the vizio 50 plasma? I have seen this in Sams club and the picture looks great. I wonder how the reliability is with this set. Will Costco have this set, as well as the 42? |

i picked up the 37 lcd at costco last week, i had to exchange it tonite because the component video2 all of a sudden went way dark. costco of course took it back with no questions. this is a great tv and am very happy with my choice. fyi i called vizio and they were more than happy to send a free tech out to me but the soonest would be 10 days, i said thanks but no thanks and just returned it, good thing i saved all the packaging. |

Got the Vizio 37DHTV, great picture, great looks. (fits my Bang & Olufsen at a fraction of the price)
Do however have problems with the remote control. Seems randomly to activate the wrong functions like suddenly adjusting volume while switching the channel. Have any of you seen that problem? It also seems to share frequencies with my Akai DVD player. |

I finally took the plunge and got the Vizio 37 inch at Sam's Club for about $1500. I also got the Radio Shack 15-1892 amplified indoor antenna (really the only antenna they had and I was anxious to get going with HD). I don't have much to compare this set with, my 1992 32 inch Toshiba was no match. But the blacks are black. I found someone had gone through the effort of optimizing the user options in the picture settings, the default settings were "vibrant 1", obviously not optimum. Has two tuners, one HD Tuner and one NSTC, plus two sets of component and composite inputs on the back. In addition one composite input on the side (with S video) for camcorders or PSPs - easier to get at.
The set up was quite easy. The pacakging on the box is fantastic, you unsnap four clips near the bottom of the box and the top separates and you pull off to expose the TV sitting in a short base box. Really then easy to get the unit out of the box
This set has a good PIP (and POP) which is important for my viewing habits (I always have a PIP window available to skip most ads). Unlike some other sets I investigated, I really can have nearly all input sources in either PIP box.
I have been a long time PIP user on a CRTV. Over the years I have had some well designed ones (you can change the channel of the PIP separately from the main window) but the magic remote that worked died eventually and no universal remote has worked (no cheap ones at least). The next CRTV had PIP but you could not change the channel of the PIP source.
Often PIP is hardly mentioned in reviews or manuals.
I did make sure that the main and pip windows could show all the necessary input signals (AV1, AV2, AV3, TV and DTV but not component). Other model I looked at was the Olevia by Syntax and it could show all sources in either main or pip. Anyway this works for me.
But I discovered some great additions. The PIP window can change channel separately from main, the remote even has pip channel + and - buttons so TV and DTV tuners can be controlled from these buttons. I can also swap the audio separately from the video (so watch main video but listen to pip audio). The pip size is adjustable from the remote with three sizes of pip, and separately a POP set-up where the screen is split in halves.
So for the Olympics I am TIVOing content in the middle of the night or early afternoon and pip-ing with live content at night. So I am not much of a men's ice skating and was able to speed through several TIVO events (at lower quality). But I could always monitor the live HD broadcast and swap over.
One feature is that I don't really have to see any adverts, in particular using TIVO this way I skip through them. But on a normal night I just have some other interesting thing in the PIP window so I can hop away from ads. Suppose the advertizers don't think this is a good thing?
I have read other sites where posters could not understand the allure of pip, but they probably had the sucky kind (as I did).
Thanks to all the posters on these forums for their comments and experiences. I would never buy without trolling for information. What did we do before the internet?

I just bought the 37 from Costco and it is great with one big exception. The component inputs (at least the one i tried) are very dark. I thought it was xbox 360 but i got the same result with prog scan DVD. Has anyone else had this problem |

Vizio is a Taiwan-based company. Therefore, there is nothing connected with Samsung. However, I would say their quality and price are as good as Samsung and even better. |

The Vizio L37 has one of the worst Hi Def LCD Displays I've Demo'd. The picture is so dark that any low light scenes are basicly unviewable. If your thinking of buying this display ignor all the "It's awesome comments" and find a store that will let you demo video other than bright sports feeds on this TV. Ask to see some low light examples and then see what you think" LCD as a whole has trouble with black levels but the L37 is really, really bad. |

I stopped by Costco today, and the salesman informed me Vizio is a Samsung private-label brand made specifically for Costco and BestBuy. I asked him what the return rate has been on this brand, and he indicated he wasn't allowed to talk about that on any electronics. Go figure. Anyway, I too was impressed with the picture of the 37" Vizio -- nicer than the Sony sitting right next to it. |

I bought the Vizio 37" LCD less than 30 days ago, then purchased a wall mount at Vizio website, to find out about the 42" plasma display coming to Costco for the same price March 20. I like the LCD display, but wondering if i should return it and buy the plasma. I don't like to return stuff that works OK, but Costco really shoved this thing in my face as I walked in last month. Need some epinions. |

I bought the Vizio 37inch myself from Sam's. Overall, very pleased with the TV and would recc. to anyone looking for a nice LCD within a budget...I got mine for $1400, which is pretty good. Picture quality and sound work great as well. The 11ms response time isn't too bad, could be better I guess.

OK. It seems that for the $, VIZIO is a good deal. If $ wasn't an issue though, would you get a Sharp Aquos? |

Can anyone comment on the black contrast and how the Vizio handles standard tv (non HD) signals? Are the blacks really black and how is the detail in dark scenes? Blurred or clear?
It wasn't easy to tell in Costco. |

Alright, where to begin, well I bought a 42" Plasma from Costco in Dec 2004, 2 weeks ago, first week of June 2006, I was watching a movie with my wife when the TV just went black, no video at all.... tried , everything, including resetting it... nothing worked.... well that weekend I took it back to Costco, and I told them it was over a year and a half old and what happened, oh I didn't even have my receipt, they had to look me up on the PC and my Costco card... well. I got $1900 and some change back, cash in hand.. and was getten ready to leave the store after looking over their current Plasma selection and LCD selection... and ofcourse, they had a ton of the Vizio products, so I was like Im not buying Vizio again.. and was gonna walk, but then it hit me.... what store is gonna give you a cash back, no questions asked, over a year old return... NO ONE ! except Costco... So I was well hell, Im just gonna buy a new TV here... I ended up buying 2 NEW LCD's that day, I bought the 37" & 32" Vizio HDTV LCD's..... and I haven't looked back.. I luv em! I got 2 Mini PC's hooked up to them, one downstairs and one upstairs... the one downstairs is my main PC, so I gave my wife my Dell 21" LCD for her PC and my daughter got her 19" LCD... it looks GREAT on the 37" to me, ofcourse I'm not using the HDMI interface, just the VGA (WXGA) at 1366 X 768
I have no complaints at all....
to answer Mark's question, standard TV on some channels does look grainy, but it did on my plasma too.. I just think it's the broadcast.... when I go upto the HD Channels on my Comcast, it looks great... but I hafta say the PC looks the best to me.. for what I paid and the AWESOME store return policy of Costco, I do care what negative things other people say about these TV's.. you wanna go buy a more expensive Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic or any other brand from Best Buy or anyone other then Costco, well, your outta luck if you have probs.... Costco ROCKS!! and I luv my Vizio LCD's! |

You should check out OPPO Digital's new LCD TV and DVD combo. The screen size is significantly smaller, it's 20", but you get so much more with a cheaper price. It's going for $599 and you get a DVD player included. It's awesome. I just received mine and it's definitely worth checking out. It's also awesome because it's attractive and fits in everywhere. You can even take it traveling. Check it. |

I really have to add my 2 Cents:
Bought the Vizio last weekend. My first try at LCD 37" or any LCD, after using Sony 27" Trinitron for 17 years. How about that?
Not that pleased with the quality, bought it for the price. $999 at Costco. At first setup, I was awed and thought that I had found a "secret" gold mine. After about an hour of watching, I realized that the picture did not focus quickly enough after there was a lot of movement or action on the screen. For still shots, it was excellent. As you can tell, I am not a big spender for state of the art video equipment, but I exchanged the unit at Costco for the SONY Bravia, 40" and will probably stay with this for at least 25 years.
However, I would like someone to comment on whether I should get the ONKYO TX-SR674 or one of the newer Pioneer DPMI capable units (Elite?).

Got a Vizio 37" the other day for $999 at BJ's. Hooked up to regular cable for now and it looks great.. Just was not sure which coax input to use ant.digital or ant. cable. So for now I hooked it up to ant.cable. I'm not running a cable box with the TV now. Going to get a High Diff cable box in a few weeks and see what it can do. So far my wife and I are 100% happy with the picture. We have a 43" non HD rear projection Toshiba that we love and have in the living room. The Vixio 37" does a good job comparing it to that.What I would like to know does Anyone have setup tips as far as brightness and contrast settings as far as making the set last a little longer? I did re set the brightness down to 50% and I think that looked great. Your thoughts please.. Thanks! George |

My 16 year old 27" Sony XBR was showing signs of failure, so I began my search for a replacement. I read the reviews here and on other boards about the Vizio 37" so my wife and I went to Sam's club to look at one. (Had been looking at Sony's CRT XBR 34", but was concerned about weight and the picture being too small.) We found the Vizio 37" at Sam's Club, but the picture looked underwhelming. Then I noticed that ALL the TV’s pictures on the displays looked less than stellar so I figured it was the source signal. There was not a price on the Vizio, so we asked for information. A manager told us he had one that was returned and repaired by service, and we could have it for $500. Our jaws dropped! My wife and I figured if we didn't like it we'd just return it. We bought it and thought it prudent to add a three year extended warranty which was $50.00, total of 4 years. Stopped and bought component video cables and went home and hooked it up. DVD picture is awesome after tweaking; with a regular cable box picture is decent. Will exchange cable box for HD box after Labor Day. Wish it had more than one HDMI port though. Christmas came early at our house this year! |

Wow,Great deal! We got ours for $999 at BJ's, had it about 3 weeks now and are very happy with it.. About the only thing I did was turned down the back light to 50 and left all other settings alone.. How are you finding the set? Have you found any settings you like best? George |

I don't have much luck with this TV.
I bought the Vizio 37 LCD for $1499 from Costco 8 months ago and really loved the picture as well as the sound. Except the response time from the remote control is so bad. After about a couple of months, all of the sudden there's a loud distorted noise that made me jump while watching a TV show. This happened every once in awhile. So I exchanged for another one. Everything was fine for a few months, then the TV turned itself off every 15 or 30 minutes. This also happened intermittently, so I decided to return it for good. It's tempting now that the price has dropped to $999, but I think I'll go with the Phillips. I have to praise Costco for honoring their return policy. |

George,
I ordered the digital video essentials disk. After I receive it I'll post my settings. I did try HDMI from my HD cable box, went back to component. I can't put it into words, just that the HDMI looked a little washed out at least to me. I've read posts about the remote having to be pointed right at the tv to work, although I found that true, it improves greatly when you have good alkalines installed. My family is very pleased with our purchase...Knock on wood! |

These are good buys, but you should look for the highest contrast levels. For me the best LCD-TV is the SHARP AQUOS. They look just like the SONY version of the LCD. Still price shouldn't be your only concern. I look for picture quality in these sets. VIZIO and WH look sort of wash out. Although the WH does look sharp and with high contrast, but some of the sets sold at Samsclub with the DVD player built-in seems to be an added catch to to buy the set. |

Well, I used the DVE Disk and after using it then fine tuning it to my taste I came up with these settings:
Backlight 50
Brightness 56
Contrast 70
Color 40
Tint 53
Sharpness 50
I'm veiwing through Analog HD 1, I must also say it's not easy making adjustments because the menu covers most of the screen during adjustments. Anyway, that's where I'm at now. It seemed to improve SD channels as well... |

Joseph, Thanks for posting your settings. I'll give them a try..My setting, set with out using a setup disk are:
Backlight 52
Brightness 50
Contrast 50
Color 50
Tint 50
Sharpness 50
Keep in mind the TV is used in a low lit bedroom.
I have a Sound & Vision set up disk that I must run soon. And I will also post the settings.
Any one remember the Vizio'z default factory setting? I just don't want to hit the reset all and have to set it up all over again.. I want to see who far my setting differ from the factory ones.. Thanks! George |

purchased Vizio 37 HDTV from Sam's for $999. Generally pleased, but some channels have head partially cut off on top of screen (in wide, normal and zoom modes) and scrolling message on bottom cut off. Only occurs on some channels. Any remedies? Also, why would one re-adjust the default setitng for backlight, brightness, contrast, etc.? |
