I purchased this tv with much research on what was available for size, features and cost. I read all the reviews of this product and even though I had never heard of this brand I decided to go with it. I got this tv within the week of ordering it , in excellent shape. Vanns did a great job of packing it. This was a very good price for this size tv. It is our main tv for watching dvds. It has lived up to all of our expectations for a month now. The picture and sound are excellent. Set-up was a snap. Heres hoping we have many good years to come...
Pleasantly surprised, great bargain for the price! (February 02, 2012)

I purchased the TCL 40 1080p LCD HDTV, and it is a great TV for me. Surprisingly, the picture & sound quality are excellent....esp for a brand that I had never heard of. You cant beat getting a fabulous 40 flat screen, shipped to your door for under $400 bucks. When I first got it, TCL didnt have a remote code so that I could program the TV to my Verizon Fios cable box, so I had to use two remotes. The TCL remote for powervolume and the Fios remote for channel changingrecording on my DVR. That was a bit of a pain. Now they have a code and I am back to using only the one remote and I couldnt be happier! I have purchased two TVs from Vanns in the last year and I am completely satisfied with my purchases. At this point, I wouldnt think of using anyone else!

Great price and Vanns was easy to deal with. Within a day of turning on the tv a vertical line formed down the left side of the tv it got bigger each day. Soon a horizontal line formed on the bottom of the screen. Vanns took care of the problem wonderfully, but I would not buy one of these sets again.

We bought this TV for my Father-in-Law who is 82, with questionable sight and hearing loss. This has been amazing for him. He can see everythig clearly, as the picture is amazing, and the sound from this TV is awesome. No sound bar or surround sound system needed. The set-up was a snap and the price for this, delivered to my door could not be beat. This brand is one to watch. Its also the only TV on the market with a 2 year warranty out of the box. The only downside is that we cant program my Father-in-Laws Comcast Remote to operate the TV. Hopefully that will be available soon.

Bought this TV on a Black Friday deal and was really skeptical about this purchase. This TV has the best and clearest picture as Ive seen. I would put this TV up against any Vizio, Samsung, Sharp, etc. as far as clarity. The shocking feature to me was how good the sound is on this TV that you really dont need the sound bars or any extra features to enhance the sound. This had to be the best Black Friday ever for me and all my deals. Thanks TCL for such a quality product.

I purchased two of these TVs in the last few months, one for my basement to replace an old TV, my kids use it connected to the WEE system, it is also connected to an older AV receiver with surround sound and so on, the second for my vocation home, also hooked up to AV receiver, blueray player, 5.1 surround. The picture is great, easy to connect to other components, the price a true bargain, where can you get a 1080p 40 tv for under $400.00? Also, the warranty is double the one found on most TVs and, if you buy with Amex it will automatically double to a total of 4 years, you cannot beat that! The look is also attractive. Can you find better TVS? Of course,but, in my opinion, nothing beats the value of this one.
On the other hand, if you are fool enough to want to impress your friends and neighbors, this unit aint for you.

The TV is solid good looking and well thought out. It has some inputs and outputs the big brand names dont like an analog audio output if your amplifier does not have optical digital capability. It also has a USB port for USB media, 3 HDMI, and a PC VGA in as well as DVI inputs for PC DVI! The picture is excellent and as said before needs to be tuned to get the best picture from it, which is quite good. The codes are not yet available for my Harmony universal remote but since we use that in the living room with the 58 Plasma TV we got from Vanns, and this is a bedroom 40, it is used much less and the original remote is fine. I can copy it head to head but no need. I am spoiled by my Yamaha YSP 900 sound bar and Yamaha matching sub I also got from Vanns in the LR but I have to say that the sound from this 40 TCL is pretty good compared to other LCD TV sound. Good volume and the rear firing speakers make them seem bigger than they are, room filling in a small bedroom would not be too far out of line. A very good value.

First venture into the flat screens and couldn't be happier. Had saved up enough for a 40 TV at Big Box store and then saw this one. Saving $200 and have yet to find a down side. 3 HDMI ports for extras. Watched our first Blue Ray movie after an easy set up and we were in awe! Hardest part was getting the old heavy TV out and set aside. Instructions were good. TCL is going to be a good name in electronics and this product is getting them noticed.

When i first got the Tv it was packaged great. Box outside of the original TV box. TV was easy to assemble and start up. When i first turned it on noticed a good picture. Plugged my PS3 in it to get the full HD and was astonished. Then i went on vacation for a week came back and the TV would not turn on. Before I left I also had the same problem but eventually it turned on. Vanns has a good customer service department and helped me set up an exchange quickly. I hope my next TV will not suffer the same consequence

This is my first LCD TV and that too so big screen. It has an amazing picture quality, it looks so crystal clear that will amaze you. It has got enough inputs and the performance is incredible. You will get everything what you expect from an LCD TV and it is certainly a Winner in all areas. With the given so low price, you will be getting a world class quality picture. Thanks to Vanns and TCL.

I bought this TV to replace a very large DLP set which I loved. I don't like LCD displays in general, but the price was too good to pass up. As others have said, the packing was very thorough. Once I set up the TV the picture was great. I had to fiddle with the settings quite a bit to turn off the dynamic backlighting and ambient light sensor and tone down the contrast but I'm very satisfied with the picture now.

I just wanted to write this review for anybody on the fence about buying such a low priced, relatively unknown brand TV like I was. The initial reaction is that it must be too good to be true. I received my TCL over the weekend and I wasn't expecting much, just a decent picture. Right out of the box this TV surpassed all my expectations and then some. I hadn't received my HD cable box yet, but even without it, the TV was able to display the available HD channels with outstanding quality in full 1080p. When I eventually did receive my HD receiver the picture only got better. I had read that the panel is produced by Samsung, and this is true - if you read the specs you'll see that the panel supplier is listed as SEC. I plan on calibrating the TV with the THX tool embedded in THX DVDs, and I'm looking forward to improving the picture even more. Also, I have to give the highest possible rating to Vanns for their packaging of the TV. They ship the TV in its original manufacturers box, but they go the extra step of putting it in an oversized box that is thoroughly padded and insulated. The way they pack it, I feel like it could withstand a pretty thorough beating and remain in prefect condition. Overall I am 100 satisfied with this purchase and I encourage anyone and everyone looking for a great value to go ahead and place an order - you won't be disappointed!

Awesome picture, and decent sound quality. I have had it about one month, and I am pleasantly surprised. Plenty of inputs, and very easy to set-up and start viewing. I think I will be getting another one for the basement.
