Unreliable product, August 20, 2010
This review is from: Sylvania LC320SLX 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
I understand the good reviews for this TV on here now. If I had posted this review a week ago, I would have written good things as well. However, it is currently 8 months after I got this TV, and it started having a burning smell yesterday. Then, while I was watching TV today the Screen went black, and nothing but a high pitched whine came from the speakers.
After trying to find a fix for the problem online, I found that this model is notorious for this problem. It is extremely unreliable, and mine ended up lasting longer than most others have. The problem is costly to fix and will likely recur, so I strongly recommend finding a non-Sylvania brand TV to buy as this one is not only unusable after a short period of time, but a potential fire hazard from what I can tell from the smell it makes.

Sub Par TV, November 13, 2010
This review is from: Sylvania LC320SLX 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
The LC320SLX is a low end TV offering the lowest possible specs, components and price. Funai (Sylvania) markets this TV for department stores targeting consumers looking for low cost deals. The off side to the price is little to no costumer support, poor quality manufacturing, and a one year warranty.
The LC320 models in general are sub par in performance and engineering. 720p and 60hz is the lowest possible quality you can buy for a LCD, LED or a plasma. The LC320 models generally have a life of about 1 to 3 years before the board burns out. Funai (Sylvania) has a record for making cheap TV's and you get what you pay for. The best word of advice I can give is to spend a little more and save a lot more in the long run.

Good Value For The Price, October 14, 2009
This review is from: Sylvania LC320SLX 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV (Electronics)
Pros: Picture looks great, sound is ok, programs really well, HDMI connection is a plus.
Cons: Can't get Cox Cable remote to program to operate TV.
I see other people have had problems w/ other systems trying to get remote to operate TV. After a call to Cox and one to Sylvania, and not getting anywhere, i did the following. I programed the Cox Box to only power the the AC outlet on the back of the box to only get power, when the cable box is on. That took care of the on/off of the TV. Next had the Cox Box control the TV volume through it and that took care of the volume. Now i don't need the TV remote to operate the TV. Hope this may help someone.
