 Completely satisfied December 27, 2008
Bruce H. Speller (Burt, NY, USA)
We purchased this tv for our bedroom, replacing a flat screen CRT set. We have a 50" HP Plasma in our living room, and the picture on the LG is every bit as good, maybe better in the low light of the bedroom. The price can't be beat at this writing, and the bonus of free shipping and no tax on the purchase (we found an online vendor other than through Amazon), made the purchase a no brainer. We had read a number of online reviews that noted some difficulty with setting the set up to operate with our Dish remote, but we had zero difficulty. DISH network tech gave us step by step instructions to follow (we contacted them before the set arrived), and I had it out of the box and set up/working in no more than fifteen minutes. I appreciate all of the tips online relative to how to tweak the picture and audio, but frankly didn't do any of that. Picture and sound were excellent out of the box. Prior to settling on this purchase we compared it to Samsung, Sony, HP, Sharp, and Toshiba; price and picture quality made the LG the best choice for us.
Great TV December 27, 2008
Lora L. Degrado (Camdenton Mo.)
I bought this LG 32" LCD TV and its Great!
The transition and delivery was better than expected.
I would recommed this TV, the product looks good and the picture is amazing! I was a little affraid to order a TV over the internet, not seeing it in person, but I'm not any more.
This is the first time that I used amazon.com and I now have used it again to purchase another TV for my bedroom.
I am very pleased with my 1st purchase.
GREAT PICTURE, amazingly user-friendly-idiot proof! December 11, 2008

We are not early-adopters and don't want to have to go through alot of choices that to us are nitpicky and irrelevant just to get an electronic device to work. Our last TV was a CRT and literally took 45 minutes before you could watch TV. This took less than 15, and that's because we did the optional auto channel search. This set has zillions of bells and whistles that you can select when you feel like it, and the menus are all very intuitive and easy to use, not in techno-speak that makes you go "huh?" There's even a huge red button on the front to turn it on and off! The remote is easy to use, too. We had no problem with the sound, but the set is in a small room. The picture is great, and very easy to adjust for sports, movies, games, etc. Very easy to see from all angles of the room, too.
 Not Bad For the Price December 1, 2008

My parents were looking for an HD replacement for their aging 32 inch CRT set, and they did not want to buy anything larger for their relatively small living room. After doing some online research and looking at various sets in the store, I thought (and still think) the Samsung LN32A450 was significantly superior to this set. In the store I thought the LG picture looked almost dingy by comparison.
However, the LG was about $200 cheaper than the Samsung, and my parents bought the LG. I set it up for them after swapping out their old cable box for an HDMI capable cable box, with no problem. The instructions for assembling the base were very sketchy, but we figured them out. I connected the set using an HDMI cable from the cable box, and component video inputs from their older Sony DVD player.
At first the picture was very bad, even after setting the picture on the home setting. I found Vivid to be unwatchable, and changing to Cinema was almost as bad. Shadows were blue and flesh tones were green. I did some more searching online, however, and found recommended settings for the set, on CNET. LG has remarkably precise picture controls for a set in this price range, allowing for a ten point IRE adjustment. After some playing with the menus (which are not very intuitive) I managed to calibrate the picture using the suggested values for red, blue and green. The result was very good, if less than stellar compared to some other sets in this price range. In a low light environment the picture is clear and crisp, and the color is very good. Flesh tones after the adjustment were accurate. Football in HD was very nice, with accurate color and no motion problems. Non-HD cable movie channels were fine for modern films, and for black and white. The contrast was not that great for non-HD channels. DVD playback from an older player without progressive scan was adequate, but the black levels were not as good as some other sets I looked at. This might improve with an upconverting DVD player. In full daylight I had a problem with glare, and a commensurate loss of detail in the picture. This was easily remedied by closing the drapes.
I was able to program the universal remote supplied by our cable provider, and switching from cable to DVD and back is fairly simple. The sound can be set for a pseudo-surround mode, which was fine within the obvious limitations of such small speakers. The sound is certainly as good as any other set within this price range.
Bottom line, in my subjective opinion, is that the LG is more than adequate for the price after some calibration of the picture, but not as good as the Samsung LN32A450, and certainly not as good as a 1080p model (for example, the Samsung LN32A550), even in this size screen.
BEST 32" TV FOR THE PRICE November 28, 2008

We purchased this TV for our bedroom several weeks ago after purchasing a 42" LG 1080p HDTV for our living room and loving it. I am very satisfied with this TV. The picture is awesome to say the least. I love the LG brand because their product seems to be top of the line. This TV pretty much has it all. I only have one complaint and it is with LCD TV's in general. The sound is good but it doesn't get very loud. You are not going to shake the pictures off the walls with this TV. Like I said though this is a drawback of all LCD TV's because there isn't much room fit larger speakers in it because of how slim it is.
