Only lasted 4months,
May 27, 2008
By HDCWfrom Washington
"I loved the Tv when I first got it. I thought it was a great deal for a Plasma TV. After about 4 months I now have a big black rectangle that appears in the misddle of the screen and does not go away. What a total disappoinment."

This is a must have!,
May 11, 2008
By JennBfrom Cuyahoga Falls, OH
"I got tv this when it was on sale for $699.99, but it's a steal at any price. Don't let it's low price fool you because it has all of the features you'll need and more!!! I did a ton of research before making my purchase, and this tv definitely has bang for the buck! The picture and sound quality are that of a theater feel. It's great for everyday tv and even better when cuddling up with a movie rental!"

BUY THIS TV!!!,
February 6, 2008
By lilMikefrom Olive Branch, MS
"This tv is awsome! The picture (1080i) is so clear its like your there. I didnt even know Zenith made HD TVs untill i saw an ad for this tv on sale for 699.00 in the newspaper at the only K-Mart in this area in late November of 07. If your looking for an HD tv this is the one to get and for its price u cant beat it anywhere! The only thing i didnt like about this tv is that it only has 2 HDMI outlets insted of 3 or 4 outlets."

Great TV For Price,
January 11, 2008
By thedafrom Baltimore MD
"i was looking around at alot of TV's and this one is the best one that i seen for the price, im a younger guy so i use it for alot of things, i hook my PC to it through s-Video and i get 1280-1024 res. on it and it looks great, i hook my 360 to it and run it at 1080i and the game looks great. The sound is wonderful for a TV. family and friends have Visio and sonys and others....there sound dont compare from what i can tell. i love this TV because of the great sound and picture....the specs on this site say that the TV is 1080p but i cant conferm that because i dont have HDMI hookup to test it, i have read that you can get 1080p with RCA hook ups but they have to be high qaulity. But overall this is a great TV for 600$ compared to whats out there right now....Enjoy andi hope this review helped you"

Great TV,
January 8, 2008
By CDReed59from Hawthorne, NV
"This is a great TV for the price, Kmart had the lowest price of the season on this TV. The Zenith 42" plasma HDTV has a great picture, and great sound, it was very easy to setup. We got more bang for our buck for the 42" plasma than for a 37" LCD TV."

Very good television set,
December 27, 2007
By Shinibufrom Naples, Florida
"I've had the set for a month now and i've got to say that it is a very good looking tv. Watching espnHD is incredible and playing games like Gears of war and madden 08 on the 360 are a sight for sore eyes.
The only downfall on this tv is that it has some burn-in issues a little higher than one usual sets. You can only notice it when you are on a full black screen but it usually goes away after an hour. Just don't leave the tv on the same screen for over an hour or it could take a week to get rid of the burn in. But it is hardly noticeable when actually doing something and would definitely recommend this set to anyone who gets it.
When compared to the 32 inch sony bravia xrb1 lcd and the 50 inch sony xsrd 1080p set, this tv looks better than both on 720p broadcastings. The xsrd looks better on Standard def tv but this is better than the lcd on SD. Plus this doesn't have the viewing angle problem of the xsrd so this tv has more pro's than cons.
The 2 hdmi ports work very well but I wish the tv had a side component instead of a YRW ports.
In conclusion, for the $592 I paid for this set, I couldnt be happier."

Great Plasma TV,
December 6, 2007
By AhAtlantisfrom East Hartford, Ct.
"Bought my 42" Plasma TV three weeks ago. While shopping for a new TV I gleened all I could from LCD and Plasma. Plasma won over and over. Zenith has been around since the advent of TV and is a reliable brand. Great picture great sound, nice styling and more than enough value for the money."

Great TV for Price!!,
November 25, 2007
By JroseCfrom Porter, Indiana
"I bought it on sale. For the price it is a great buy. It did leave an imprint of the channel I was watching on the screen but that went away with time and it only shows on a black screen when it does happen. I would recommend this TV to any one who wants to upgrade bigger but not pay thousands of dollars."
