Of course, NO mass-produced screens are manufactured in America.

Visio LCD screens are made by LG (unconfirmed, but a lot of evidence points in this direction) - their plasma screens are Panasonic seconds. Good screens at half the price, but older technology.

Hate as you will, Visio produces hgh quality screens at half the price of the "name brands". I will not vouch for warranty, longevity, or repair services. I've heard nothing good about them. I will not recommend the plasma screens at all.

My next television will be a Visio. I love to old one I have.



Visio offers ok reliability, stunning prices, solid features, and screens that compare to models costing twice the price.
