Samsung is by far the most repair-prone brand for DLP TVs. The repair rate is nearly 50%. That is rediculously high. That is the reason we have not sold Samsung DLP sets for two years and we still bring in many of them from customers who bought them elsewhere. They have great picture quality but I can't recommend them. Samsung is not very easy to deal with from a dealer/service center standpoint either. I am not impressed with them.

Hmm... mebbe either my friends and myself got lucky, or Samsung has dropped the ball in the past couple of years... as none of us have had any issues. I totally love my Samsung Pedestal, but then again, when I purchased it I heard nothing but rave reviews on it. 2+ years now and going strong, still on the original bulb which is cool since the thing is always on... a good 4+ hour average on weekdays and pretty much all day on weekends, so call that 12+ hours a day for two days... I must be in the area of 7000+ hours easily.
As for service, maybe that's something differing US service centers, but when I needed service on computer related equipment though Samsung, they were always a pleasure to deal with.
