    It’s not because they’re bad TVs…it’s more likely due to the rent a center returns policy. It’s kind of popular to go get a big ass TV for the weekend sportsball thing then take it back.

      Vizio also probably has the best budget soundbars.

      It’s too bad that now that they’re a Walmart subsidiary I’m fully expecting a quality dropoff, I’m not sure if that will be true, just that seems to be how it goes after mergers and acquisitions.
