Review 1 for RCA 40" Class LCD 1080p Widescreen HDTV, 40LA45RQ

good t.v. stand it sits on is crooked

The t.v. itself has good picture quality. the sound is not as good as our Sony Bravia so we invested in a sound system. The stand that it sits on was glued/screwed on the base at an angle to it sits crooked on the stand which is annoying. Put the sound bar in front of it so you don't notice as much.

I purchased this TV the Tuesday after Cyber Monday. Great price! My first widescreen/flat TV. LOVE the picture, so crisp and clear. I am very happy with my purchase. Sound quality isn't bad it just would be better if hooked up to a sound system. I give it a overall thumbs up!

I am enjoying the new TV.
Your website was difficult to work thru. I was especially frustrated, because I wanted the product delivered to the nearest Walmart at 301 & CR674 Waimama. I had to travel to Brandon your website wouldn't pick up my local Walmart.
Thank you for your time.

Great pic, price & good sound

This is our 1st Flat Screen TV, as our 25 yr. old console finally bit the dust. We like the great quality pic (HD) & the sound is good enough that we don't feel the need to get a sound stick or additional speakers. The online site to store Walmart process was easy, although it took almost 2 weeks to arrive. The price was the best among any other big merchandise electronic stores. Be sure to buy the additional service contract, because now days you cannot get a TV repaired, you just replace it.

bought for the name

We bought this because it is a name brand and a fair price. I did read a lot of reviews. We decided just to go for the home theater system as many reviews on all brands complained about the sound quality and the system provides us with enough speakers to do living room and kitchen. We have a small flat screen in the kitchen. We are thus far very pleased with both. I do find the picture on HD very clear for the most part but occasionally grainy and it may just be the nature of flat screen tvs of this size. We went for the 40" as I didn't want it to overwhelm the room. It is just right . So glad to get rid of the huge tv.

Nothing about this tv was good, bad picture with blurred color, had to turn volume as high as it would go just to hear it. The only thing I liked about it was that it had a swivel base. I returned it and purchased a Phillips LED which works great.

I am quite disappointed with this tv, the picture quality is not so great and you have to put the sound up pretty high to hear to have decent sound. I'm sorry I took so long to open it or I would return it

I am very pleased with this purchase. We've been using the TV every day for about a month and are very pleased. It was easy to set up, the picture is fantastic and the sound quality is excellent. We replaced a 32" screen with this 40" and what a difference it makes. So far, we have had no issues and we like everything about this TV.
