My Experience: I've owned this TV for 8 months. Since the beginning the picture would flicker to black. then one day just would not come on. press power green light would come on then 15/20 seconds later off it went, no picture, no sound, nothing but a 800 dollar paper weight.. I called Sanyo they were very nice, a week later I had an appointment to drop it off at a repair shop 25 miles away from home. Where they told me; nothing is wrong with it, turns on every time, said; We'll call the tech. dept. and check for known errors. Tech. dept. said bad mother boards... Repair man ordered and installed new mother board. Took it home worked GREAT for ONE NIGHT. Next day my son texted me saying tv's doing it again... WTF!!! Called Sanyo, once again they very nicely asked me to take it 25 miles up the road back to the repair shop... Yea, warranties... Maybe when I get it back it will last until the warranty is up... Fun..

Problems: No Power, No Picture, No Sound, No Buy Again Sanyo.
