I had to replace my wall mounted 10 y/o 42" 1080 LCD set (visible screen burn/dead pixel pattern). I settled for this insignia, as I was limited to VESA 200x200 wall mountable sets. This was one of the few 55" that used VESA 200. This is my 2nd Insignia LED TV, so long term quality is not a concern (using certain credit card with free extended warranty was a plus!). "out of box" preset picture modes are NOT the best, but after a quick custom calibration best picture quality achieved. I say quick because at this price point not many expert settings available in submenu. the picture quality is decent, just don't expect a great picture like in 4K sets (I also have a "Sa*Sun*" 6 series 4K screen which blows this 1080s quality). But for less than half the price of my other LED, this insignia beats it for value. My image is based on OTA HD antenna receiving 1080i, 720p, and 480p signals. I also have a standard Blu Ray player (HDMI) and a Roku 2 (HDMI), so my picture quality assessment is based on these 3 picture sources. Screen glare is average, not very glossy to produce distractions. "Off angle" viewing does not produce sharp cutoff in picture quality as compared to other name brand sets. The "Dolby DTS" sound is actually better than expected, the decent sized rear speaker placement also improves sound. when playing a Blu ray with master Dolby DTS audio VS 5.1 track, difference is noticeably better. The basic stubby remote control does not light up, but a few buttons are glow in dark. This Insignia 55" has a rather high energy rating of $28/year (name brands of this size are more efficient). according to the online specs in manual, this has a power consumption of 144W. Conclusion: VALUE!, for the price nothing beats this 55" Insignia set as 1080 55" sets are becoming rare: 4K sets are becoming the norm. get them while you can.
