1 out of 5 stars Westinghouse SK-32H240S DON'T BUY IT   November 13, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Westinghouse SK-32H240S Broke four weeks after i got this tv. Had to pay $55.00 to ship it to Westinghouse. And now I'm told that they are looking of a replacement and it could take a few more weeks. Please Don't Buy This Tv


1 out of 5 stars Horrible product, worse customer service   October 30, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Purchased this TV from a big retail store in Nov 2007, several months later, the TV was having problems with the sound coming through the HDMI cable. I called westinghouse, and after trying to troubleshoot over the phone, they agreed to set up a repair order. Got it shipped to them, did not get it back for several weeks. Then technician calls and says he has the TV, but he doesn't see anything wrong with it. He finally says he can't duplicate the problem, so just sends it back.

2 months later, October 2008 (1 month before the warranty expires), I call them again due to more problems, this time with picture freezing (not the cable company's problem). They refuse to send it in because it MUST be something else wrong with the TV.

Now, it is October 30th, they still refuse to repair the tv, and the color seems to be going out.

I don't have any other option but to try to get them to fix it, or just run it over with my car and leave it for the trash collector.

Frustrating to pay $550 for a TV, then have it break under manufacturer's warranty, then to have the manufacturer refuse to fix it.



1 out of 5 stars Warning! Prone to Failure!   October 23, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

A lot of people come on Amazon to complain about their one instance of a bad product, or bad service. Sometimes, these just represent one single data point, and aren't that relevant. My experience, however, leads me to believe that Westinghouse KNOWS that this television is very prone to failure, and I hope others will appreciate hearing about it.
I bought this item on sale and got a great deal, and for six months it worked brilliantly. Then, it simply stopped coming on. Westinghouse's warranty service first sent me to a local repair shop, which was unable to fix the tv because Westinghouse, unlike ANY OTHER MANUFACTURER, does not directly sell parts, even to THEIR OWN LICENSED WARRANTY REPAIR TECHS. I then had to ship the TV back to Westinghouse AT MY OWN EXPENSE (one fourth the cost of the TV!) and have been waiting over four weeks for them to do anything with it. They tell me that this model is so prone to failure that they do not have the inventory to replace them!
Had I just spent the money I have now spent on shipping I could have gotten a higher quality TV, or even a larger one. That is what I suggest you do. This television WILL FAIL. If you are lucky, it will fail under warranty and you will deal with weeks of frustration, if you are not lucky you will be out the full cost of the TV or a hefty repair bill.



1 out of 5 stars Actually You Don't Get What You Pay For.   September 14, 2008
 5 out of 7 found this review helpful

The common axiom used when a product with a low price point breaks is "You get what you pay for." I believe this sort of thinking is problematic in the consumers' never ending quest to be respected by the companies from which we purchase goods.

In the case of the Westinghouse line of LCD t.v.s this is especially true. Yes the t.v.s' low prices can be considered a warning to stay away but they shouldn't be. When we just chalk a $700 t.v. that is defective up to "getting what we pay for", we create a climate where not only do we expect to get ripped off, Westinghouse is vindicated in a round about way. A defective t.v. is not worth $700 dollars. So no I did not get what I paid for. At any price a product should be expected to function properly for a reasonable amount of time. If a manufacturer or retail outlet knows that it will not, it should not be available for sale.

Saying "well I guess I got what I paid for" is tantamount to saying if Westinghouse or any other manufacturer sales wares at a reasonable price, they do not have a responsibility to provide a functioning product.

Unfortunately the only way to hold them accountable at this point is to keep spreading the word in hopes that consumers will become wary enough of their products the business folds. But there will no doubt always be a long line of budget conscious consumers being punished for looking for a deal.



1 out of 5 stars Worked great...for a month   July 25, 2008
 0 out of 3 found this review helpful

I guess I made a mistake going against my better instincts and not buying a better known brand. The TV was great for about a month and then the picture just went crazy. Everything was covered in neon green static. I'm hoping to have better luck with customer service than some of the other people here, but after reading their experiences, I'm not too hopeful. Lesson learned, spend the extra money and get a quality brand.
