My dad fixed it twice then put it in the dumpster where it belonged after 2years. my father in law still has a plasma and it does produce a great picture but you guessed it, it's had issues along the way (extended warranty repairs). It's also not a smart tv so he's committed it to the trash next time it goes out

In the LCD world, Panasonic TV's are not a contender and probabaly hard for you to believe but Vizio is probably better than anything Panasonic now. Regardless, buy a mid level 4k Samsung smart TV, they are the best (I'm a former Sony guy). They have decent specs and mine have been troublefree. Pretty affordable too ($1500 - $2000)
I know every tv has flaws. i just want something that looks decent for video games and won't die on me within the next decade. Vizio seems to be steamrolling the competition, and samsung is dirt cheap. I just worry with samsungs quality. Sony is just to pricey nowadays. Same with Sharp. I will NEVER get a LG tv ever again.

I have been using Samsung TV's -- LCD and LED -- and they perform well and last.

Samsung or Vizio it is. Any specific models you recommend? looking at the 1k range. 50+ inches. Doesn't need to be smart in any way, or need to be 3d. Nor 4k since nothing can produce that resolution for anything I use frequently. Probably LED since I hear color reproduction is better.

Just about anything Samsung LED is good. I have a Samsung 60 inch LED Smart TV model 7150.

Rep honorably.

For an entry level TV you really can't go wrong with either. If you're looking at higher end TV's, that's where Samsungs usually edges out. I too was worried about Samsung's quality coming from Sony, but have been very pleased. Don't go with anything Sony right now. They're overpriced and under built. My last Sony had dead pixels within 3years. My 6year old 720p Samsung LCD is still going strong

I run a sharp 60" at home and its been great for the last 5ish years.
We run a few hundred LG tvs 24/7 at work and surprisingly the failure rate is not too bad.

Nope, but it IS after 7:00 am!!! I ran out of work so fast this morning. I had a Rush call come in at 6:57 and I told coworkers "Oh hell no, someone else is getting that ticket, see ya next week!"
