Sony KDF E42A10
Pros
I really loved the HD picture quality when it was working.
Cons
Bad long term performance. Warranty should be longer for known failures.
Recommended it?
No
Purchased this TV just over 12 months ago. And wouldn't you know it, 2 weeks past the warranty and it fails. Not just a little, but a lot. It will cost more than the original purchase price to fix it. I'm presently waiting on Sony to make a decision as to whether they pay for the fix or I drag the unit around town with a sign on it. I have read quite a bit online that these units are subject to fail with numerous battles with Sony to get them fixed. I had the Samsung and Sony units side by side when I purchased and I now wish I made a different choice.

Just a quick update. Because we were just a couple weeks over the warranty, Sony states they will cover the repairs.
I'm feeling a little better about this situation, but most likely only because I'm getting a fix. If not, I'd still be mad as a wet hen.

Repaired on 5/17 at Sony's expense. Still not happy that it failed and not sure what the future holds for it. But the HD picture quality does look good.
Fingers crossed..:):)
