The television itself (make, model, etc) is phenomenal. Even though it's a 2017 model, it's still better than the 2018 P series model. This is the CLOSEST you can get to the Quantum series televisions that are out now. The ONLY issue is that you will HAVE to have internet connected to the TV so that you can run the software updates. Without it you have screen jutter, sound lag, and the main board begins to seize resulting in distorted imaging.
The TV I received in general is still very impressive. I'll admit that I was extremely skeptical of buying a refurbished television so I made sure to purchase the very affordable 4 year warranty. The tv was in such excellent condition that the plastic stickers protecting from factory that protect the frame of the tv were still on it. There were zero scratches, fractures, and all hardware appears to be original. I did have to connect it to WiFi and run the update because within a couple hours of use, the main board had some issues and left me with distorted images but again, this is almost certainly a software issue and not an actual defect. Since I have had it for a week now, I've been able to administer several tests. This is TRUE 4K HD! My husband and I are avid gamers and we needed a television that was up to the task. There is no lagging, no trailing, no drop outs, no image burning, and NO BLOOMING! It has a great refresh rate and can keep up with the highest of speed images that the human eye can perceive. The ONLY issue we are having with the product we received is that there are a few spots on the screen that are lighter. We have been able to resolve this issue by purchasing a high quality cleaning spray and gently messaging the screen (while it's off) and it worked the spots right out.
I dare say that this referbished tv is EXACTLY as it should be and I would never have known it was referbished otherwise. It's better than the brand new Vizio M Series I purchased brand new in 2015. If you're in the market for a high quality tv I highly recommend this tv even though the care it required right out of the box was a bit of a pain.
My only gripe with my purchase is that I had to wait longer than necessary for my purchase. Granted, I only had to wait a day longer than the projected delivery day, I still feel a bit jaded simply because when I pay close to a grand for a product, I want it sooner rather than later. Unfortunately, VMInnovations failed to email me important instructions that would have informed me that it was my job to contact the freight company and their partner to schedule a delivery date. I could have had it 3 days sooner than it actually arrived, and that is a little frusting since it could have been easily avoided.

So far so good!!!!! Just got it delivered 2 days ago showed no signs of wear or damage except for a scratch on the back of the tv, but honestly who cares. Picture quality is absolutely stunning. (Attached picture doesn’t do it justice) Screen does show reflections when viewing dark scenes but it is hung on the wall adjacent to to a sunroom facing south and does perform about equal to previous tv in reflections. Sound quality is a little poor but I already have a Vizio vht510 sound bar. So far my expierence with the SmartCast app has been good and shown know signs of some of the bugs I was concerned about, but I find myself using the Apple TV still.

Ever since I first turned it on, there were blotches of discoloration within 25% of the display. I troubleshot with a Vizio Tech Rep and tried test patterns to clear the bad groups of pixels to no result. (The screen and lens were completely clean in the attached photo)
