One thing to keep in mind is the encloser that is sits in. My 5ver could fit a 32 inch flat panel. Problem was these new ones get hot. It would over heat in the encloser. I have since down sized to a 26 inch and have the 32 inch in the house.

The LED should not get hot.

I recently saw the model you are talking about in SAM's and it looked quite impressive along side it's bigger brother, which also looked impressive. Take a look at consumer reports for a good review.

They do Wayne, at least our 46" Sony gets very warm. They require adequate clearance for air circulation.
FWIW, H.H. Greg has a 26" LED TV for $199.99 until Christmas-I think.

My friend has recently installed 2 Vizios and he is quite satisfied with them.

We recently put that exact TV in the bedroom of our Monaco. Bought it last mth at Sam's for $368+tax. Put it on an articulating arm. We put a 37" Vizio in the front overhead of our last coach, and have a 37" Vizio in the living room of our stick house too. Great TVs.

Just my opinion, but looking at the Visio's side-by-side with others, I dont like them...

However, LED TV's do need adequate airflow, same as any other as it still has a power supply and all the other electronics.

I am replacing the 80 pound analog tv in the front. I plan to go to a cabinet shop and have them make me a solid one halve inch board to match the wood in my MH. I will have them trim the sides with some kind of finish trim that is neat. I will then have them to cut small holes where need to be for the cables to go through in the back. I will put a small mount that goes up and down so the tv can get some air. I want to put three hinges on the top and some latches on the bottom so i can raise the board if i want. The hinges will be the same type that is on the cabinet to the left of TV. I woulld like to put a device on the board that will hold it up by it self and close to the inside. Anybody see anything wrong with this? Please let me know! I have a 2000 tradewinds model 7373, front door.
