The weird thing about Vizio is that they are nowhere near the "value" brand that they used to be. 42" Vizio plasmas go for 697, which is roughly the price of a 42" Panasonic (if you shop around). 50" 1080p Vizio plasmas go for 1383.00 according to samsclub.com, whereas a 50" 1080p Panasonic can be found online at numerous websites for 1399 or less.

Vizio is basically the same price as Panasonic, and is a lower quality product. I'm amazed people still think it is a "value" brand.

While it may be a value brand for a smaller TV (32" and smaller) anything larger than 40", and Vizio really shouldn't be considered "value"

It really depends. I'm not sure about the products you're comparing them to, but the 50" Vizio plasma that I got a few years back beat out pretty much anything features/quality wise at the time for a lower price.

I used to dismiss them as a poor quality budget brand until I looked around as comparable reviews. Maybe they've changed since then, but I'm still happy.
