The price was phenomenal on this tv so I decided to take a chance. Once I got it and set it up, the picture was great but the sound was unbelievably bad. It was unwatchable. The sound on most flat screens isn't award winning quality, but this was atrocious. I brought it back for a full refund the next day with no issues. I would recommend looking for something with a little better quality and steering clear of this one. For a few bucks more now, why not get something that will last.

I love the tv & they shipped it fast.. Although i wish they can ship it to store instead of paying for shipping! They didn't have that "free shipping or store pick up options". Otherwise its a good purchase

Review 4 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
This is my first experience with a flat screen tv and I must say, I am by no means disappointed. This tv is everything I had expected a flat screen tv to offer and be. I'm glad I made this purchase, and you will be too.

Review 5 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
This is my first flat screen. I checked on many of them and was happy to be able to settle on this one with the many options it has to offer. The size is just right, not to big and still not to small. Price was good, but did not offer in store. So ordering online was to learn patience. It did come in just a few` days. Would recommend this to anyone

Review 7 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
We needed a TV for the babies room as she likes to watch her favorite Netflix shows. The HD stations are good quality. Blu Ray content is excellent. Have not connected a sound bar, and I noticed that the unit uses a SPDIF output vs Toslink. Not sure if there will be much of difference but keep this in mind if planning on connecting a sound bar. Overall, the blacks looks deep and the color looks accurate. It's a 60 hrz unit, which does not seem to be a negative with Blu Ray content. I turned on noise and jpg reduction. You'll have to experiment to see how best to reduce any artifacts that appear when images like basketball players, are moving around quickly. For what we are using the TV for, it's just fine.

Review 8 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
I was skeptical when I first saw the TV and price, but after researching the company and products on line, the majority of the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. The unit took just minutes to set up, and the quality is very good- even better when you consider the price of the unit. We have been using this TV for several weeks and have yet to have even the slightest problem. I highly recommend it.

Review 9 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
Picture quality is fair - the clarity and contrast is not as good as more expensive Samsung or Sony Sound needed tweaked - it was too loud on lowest level so I had to create a custom user setting Remote is a good size, not to small or busy Need to figure out how to remove oversized on screen channel info box

Review 10 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
As with other Sceptre models, program your cable or satellite remote to control a Sony TV. With 2 x 10W audio, this TV can play as loud as you want, but little downfiring speakers in these thin sets are very limited in bass. Be sure to access the equalizer and set the two lowest frequency bars at the top of their range. Beyond that, a decent set of computer speakers w/subwoofer or a soundbar will get you good audio via the headphone jack. Be sure to try the nice "surround" audio feature on this TV.

So far so good now if it lasts it's a smash hit in my book .

Review 13 for Sceptre 40 Class (38.5" viewable)LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV, X409BV-FHD
TV was fast to set up. Take off the energy saving setting and put on normal or user. I tried changing the sound controls but liked the factory setup best. Great TV, compares well with my top of the line Samsung. Bought 3 more to put in our vacation condo at the beach.

Not a good product bought for christmas the HDMI ports stop working in about six weeks called customer service not very helpful and telephone number is not working at all times. A month th later finally spoke with someone and they sent me a HDMI cord by mail that didnt work after three weeks of calling and emailing someone finally called med back and they finally sent a service tech that did fix the problem. All is fine now but I WOULD NOT PURCHASE THIS BRAND. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

I owned this product for over a month and I love it! Yes at first I did have issues with the volume but hey, it's a 40" at a very affordable rate so why complain. However, when I switched service providers, I didn't have the volume issue anymore. Overall, I am thoroughly pleased.

Bought this online & picked up in store a few weeks ago. Hooked up easily and looked fine for two weeks. TV lost power while watching one evening - would not turn back on. Returned to store for refund with no problems at all from the store. I would not buy a Sceptre brand again.
