Which is best for outdoor viewing? I'm looking to get a 42" for patio, what do you recommend?

I've read a couple places that recommend buying at best buy and getting the extended warranty since is covers moisture damage. Anyone have experience with this?

Carefully read the extended warranty before you buy it. It may cover moisture damage in the home, but being used outside may void the warranty.

buy a cheap LED like the Changhong 40" that is usually found online for $230. Nothing will last long outside so go cheap and replace every couple of years.

I would buy something cheap enough a warranty wouldn't matter.

LED for outdoor use. I wouldn't get top of the line though. Spiders and ants crawl in there, make babies and then attack you while you are sleeping. They only like top of the line.

Plasma is not an option...don't even consider it for an outdoors setting.


LED

I recently bought an open box 52in samsung led for high $500's. Works a&m's looks great. I bought the extended warranty--even asked if having it outside would void it. The said that it wouldn't.
