Bought this TV new in May 2008. Not a single problem yet. Excellent, clear picture! Great sound! Highly recommend this LCD TV. If we ever get a second TV will definately choose a Toshiba Regza!

While this is my first HDTV I did do a lot of shopping around and checked out a bunch of tv's before I set my heart on this one. The 42xv545u is a 1080p 120hz tv that is very affordable! The color is amazing and so far I've had no problems with it besides a dinky hdmi cable.
SD channels are so so and not great quality and the upscaling technology basically sharpens the image but it can only do so much. Any HD content looks breathtaking and no lag present.
I am currently using a PS3 and comcast for my HD needs. Even with comcasts compression on HD channels the picture still looks pretty good. I recently watched Resident Evil Degeneration on Blu-Ray and it was crystal clear!
The only gripes I would have to throw out there would be that there is no picture-in-picture on this set, and even though the tv remembers your video settings for each input; it does not save "game mode" for any input. So every day when I turn on my ps3 I have to go to the menu and select game made. It doesn't sound like much but when you do it everyday it kind of gets annoying.
So all in all I am VERY happy with this purchase and I recommend anyone that's on the fence about this set to definitely buy it!
UPDATE: It is now September 11th about 7 months owned now and it still works exactly like the day I first received it. price dropped by 200 dollars from when I bought this tv so I would still recommend this tv highly!

This unit is my 4th HD TV, and is the "best of show". I have another Toshiba Regza upstairs, but the Cinema series screen on this unit is great. Combine that with 120hz and Toshiba's SRT technology and you get a stunning picture. I plugged in the Blu-ray player for the ultimate WOW! If you want a TOP NOTCH TV for a reasonable price, here it is.

This is my first HDTV purchase. I've had it for about 3 weeks and so far it has been great. It's a pretty sleek looking TV and the picture quality is awesome and the sound is good too. The only downside I've noticed is that the pre-set picture settings are pretty bad. They're very dull and not vibrant at all. But you can create your own settings to your liking and once I did that the picture became really great...full of color and really great HD picture.
Some people have complained of seeing too much green at times...I do notice it at times but it's pretty subtle. I don't think the average user will care. And even if you do care about that it looks like you can add / subtract green levels as well as blue, red, etc. Some others have complained that the remote is too large and bulky. I think that's up to interpretation...in my opinion it's a normal sized remote.
Bottom line is this is a great TV. It's a really good value for the feature set. I bought it from Costco for $[...]. They give you a 2 year warranty. But then if you buy it with your AMEX card, AMEX gives you a 3rd year on your warranty. You can't beat it.

We really are pleased with our new tv. The service was great, and we, as "seniors", are enjoying the first video games of our lives.
