When your tv starts having issues and by the time you realize you also realize/remember you have a 5 year warranty on it, it's two months too late. We could have gone the warranty route had we realized we were going to need to get another TV, but we just didn't know the issue was going to get worse until it did. Two months too late.

We're going out to buy a new tv today and hopefully will remember the warranty if this one starts acting up in 5 years or less. I'm pretty sure this is a lesson learned. We always get an extended warranty on electronics and it's paid off in the past when something has gone sideways, but most of those warranties are 2-3 years old. I didn't even think about this one being a 5-year. I won't forget it again.
