After having a Magnavox TV for over 30 years without a problem, My family decided to update my parents to a LCD bigscreen.I thought this was the one to get..I was wrong.After a short period in time,the LCD screen went out.Lucky it was still under warranty.BUY A DIFFERENT TV!! SHARP HAS SERIOUS QUALITIY ISSUES!I don't know if it the cheap labor that assembles these or just faulty components!!Stay away from SHARP!!!
