I love this tv, I use it as a computer monitor and it works out great, I mostly play video games or watch videos on the internet so resolution was not that big of a deal for me.

Well, great deal for sure.
For the pros: First of all, amazing TV/Display design. I have to say, beautiful, slim, awesome finishing. Great job there Westinghouse!. The TV is super slim, 1.5 inches at the thickest part. Is so thin that it feel wrong not to mounted on a wall!!.(I still have it on a stand). The image is great too, colors are superb. No need for more resolution for a TV of this size, the image is very sharp. Blacks are really blacks and whites are absolute whites. Best technology for TV (LED LCD). I’m never going back to no LED (Sorry!). And all this for less than $ 350.
conts: Well, the most annoying thing for me is the TV tuner, I get HDTV from my air antenna, and changing channel is really slow (when I say slow, like 5 seconds from the time you hit the remote control to when you get your new picture, feels like satellite TV slow). This probably won’t matter if you have cable and a cable box. The control remote design sucks (well, doesn’t match the nice slick TV, is like what the heck!). And I got a little confused with the inputs in the back (doesn’t have that 5 cable A/V digital input anymore, instead comes with an adapter, this uses up your computer input, so now you might need a computer to HDMI adapter if you want to hook both at the same time).
I like this TV a lot. Again awesome picture quality! I totally recommended this product. Love the display design… really nice (nicer than most other brands). I have to say I bought it because of the great price. But if I would need to go back, I now would buy it because I think is a great TV, is stylish and has great technology.

Pros: slim, stylish, clear picture (720p), lightweight, easy set up, optical output (digital audio), low price ($350).
Cons: stand does not swivel, tv seems to be angled downward slightly, unimpressive speakers, only 2 hdmi inputs.
Other thoughts: no component inputs, but it does come with a vga adapter kit so you can hook up a single device using component connections. Also might want to make sure your hdmi cables are 1/2″ thick or less (most I have seen are), my hdmi cables barely fit into the slots because of their thickness (this is understandable, as the tv itself is only 1.5″). The TV does slant downwards slightly. Not a terribly big deal, but modestly annoying since the stand cannot be adjusted. speakers are on the bottom/back of the tv, so sound is below average. Overall, you will have a tough time finding a better 32″ 720p LED tv for the same price.

After researching the purchase of 2 LCD TV’s for my kids, I was shopping around and discovered this Westinghouse. I actually didn’t think it would be a serious TV, as it was less money that comparable LCD TV’s sitting on either side of it on the stores shelf. All were on, and set to the same channel. So comparisons were easy! I was prepared to hate the Westinghouse, thinking is was in the same class as some of the “no name” brand sets..junk! After all it was less than $400.00!
But when we were getting ready to pick up the boxes of Phillips TV’s and put them in the cart to take home, we started reading the box thatthe Westinghouse was in. Did my eyes deceive me? Did it really say LED on it! No way. We walked over the the high end and expensive LCD TV’s. and the 32″ ones that said LED were $700.00 plus! Samsungs, Vizio, Panasonics, etc.
First of all, an explanation for the “electronically challenged among us..like me! A regular LCD TV uses fluorescent edge lighting to shine thru the LCDs to make the picture viewable. Good enough!
Then there are newer technology LCD TV’s with LED edge lighting…LED’s all the way around the screen shine thru and illuminate the TV screen. Saves energy because LEDs use a small fraction of the energy as the fluorescent lights. Better but the black and darker colors are not as “black”, and colors a bit washed out.
BUT…the Westinghouse LED back lit LCD’s have black blacks! Deeper color, brighter, vibrant colors (wait till you see the yellows!). And way less energy, about the same as a 40 watt light bulb. And the TV is slim..I mean slim!
1″ thick and 14 1/2 lbs!
Terrific featurers, nice price, outstanding technology for way less than others, all the featurers..great value over all! And I can’t even begin to tout the picture quality except to say you have got to see it yourself!
