We bought two samsung tvs at Best Buy in 2014. One of the tvs which is not used regularly went black and flashed a split second of the channel the tv was on. I called samsung and they tried troubleshooting. NO LUCK! I asked for a supervisor to help. I really think a tv should last more than 17 months, even though it is out of warranty. The supervisors words were Its man made, so you never know how long its going to last WHAT? Are you kidding me. What a schmuck! Never again would I buy an samsung tv or any other product that the man made people make. Very poor tv!
