Deal Review: This LCD TV is pretty on par with prices of other similar LCD TVs, and this deal represents some difference of a few hundred dollars. Expert Reviewer TelevisionInfo gave this a pretty solid rating for its price point.

TelevisionInfo.com gave 32LH40 (which is the smaller version of the same line 55LH40) a pretty good rating citing, “It
doesn’t have the highest contrast ratio and its color temperature tends to wander, but it did tend to have less artifacting/blurring issues than competing TVs. Overall, the 32LH40′s picture quality performances were about on par with other TVs its size and price.  The one advantage it offers is media playback via USB. Although this feature is definitely a boon to some users, the majority won’t find a use for it. ”
