Why should I not buy a Vizio M551d-A2R?
The use:
- This will be wall mounted in my livingroom until I get the kid loft (much smaller) sorted out (3-6 months), at which point it will be mostly for video games and kid movies, surrounded by cheap plastic toys.
Constraints:
- I live at high(ish) altitude - which supposedly degrades the look of plasma TVs. As such, plasma is out.
- 55 inches is the bare minimum for the livingroom, but a good size for the loft. Could go smaller for the loft.
Issues that I see:
- This is overkill for a kid room, and possibly not good enough for the livingroom. Worst of both worlds?
- What if the bracket that I use to mount this is not compatible with the TV I replace it with in my livingroom? I'm left with big ugly holes in the wall.
- I don't like reflective screens
- Vizio seems like a cut-rate brand, will it last?
