    From the files of Cliff Clavin: Haier is a German-Chinese company that manufactures electronics and appliances. They bid to buy Maytag in 2005. I think most of their stuff is pretty decent.

    Not 1080p and only 60 hz refresh rate? Save your money and go for a better TV later (LCDs keep dropping in price for the nicer TVs - aka 1080p and 120 hz). If i had to pick between the two though, i'd definitively go for the higher refresh rate (720p isn't that bad).

    You aren't going to see a difference on a 32" tv between 1080p and 720p.

    I got one just like that about 3 years ago when I was looking for a cheap TV that would not get as much use as others. It is still going strong now. I would say it is a good deal for a cheap TV.

    Also be aware this is a refurb. I saw last week that walmart had a 32" samsung for $300. Might be worth spending extra to get a new one from a better brand.

    Re: Looking for a small flat screen? Look at this deal!

    I've found for 32" and below you really don't need 1080p or anything more than a 60hz refresh rate. On a screen that small from a few feet away you really can't tell much of a difference, if at all.

    It is refurbished but I buy a lot of refurbished products and I have never, and I mean not once, had a problem.

    I would also not assume that Samsung is just automatically better than Vizio. I have a friend who had two Samsungs die on him in the first year of ownership who would disagree with that assumption. I've got a 47" Vizio I bought refurbished two years ago and it has been a gem.
