Take a look at Amazon.com. Type in Flat Screen TV in search and then on the left select the size TV you are interested in. If nothing else it will give you a good guide for pricing before you visit a local store.
I have had great results with Vizio products but I think all of the major brands will stand up well long term. If you have any hearing issues, I would suggest that you turn the volume up in the store as this seems to be the one area that varies greatly between various TV's and vendors.
Ditto on the Vizio.
Albeit I was buying cheap flat screens for the RV, I've been thru 3 of them. The Vizio has lasted the longest and gets the best reception of channels from batwing antenna in the MH.
Go to the store to buy it. IMHO all these are crappily made. Some more so than others. Sound & viewing capabilities is what I found to be the big difference between them all. You need to see and hear them!
The first 2 I bought if you were laying down below the TV [couch]or off to the side of the TV [dinette]? You saw a black screen with barely recognizable solid black silhouettes moving around.:R
So when you go to buy one at the store, don't just stand directly in front of the TV display move over to the side of the TV, then bend down below it, and see if you still have a clear color picture.
Good Luck!
