You get what you pay for, no way around it. (True most of the time, but not all of the time. However, there are people who have spend five times more than you, but they don't say your TV is a POS) I always see at least 1 Vizio at the return counter every time I'm at Sams, so I'm not the only person who didn't find them to be any good.

And, everytime I'm at Sam's, I go to the return merchandise in the back of the store, and I see EVERY type of TV they sell returned at least once a month. Does that tell me all are bad? NO.
I honestly believe that you can purchase ANY brand of TV and find at least 10% that are not acceptable. So, enjoy your Brava, and I'll enjoy my Vizio POS (which was rated extremely high via an magazine article I read in the Hospital a half year ago). Then again, I watch TV primarily for news, History and Discovery channel, so my experience with any TV is limited.
