If you’re on the hunt for an affordable TV, we highly recommend that you check out the offerings of Costco. The retailer has a wide range of products from all of the most popular TV brands up for sale, so you’ll definitely find something that will match your budget. However, for every cheap TV worth buying, there’s one that should be skipped; we’ll be using Costco’s rating system to help determine which is which.
Unfortunately, for a television to be sold at a low price, it usually means that some sacrifices were made. You might not get more than a few basic features, or the TV may have lower build quality and reduced reliability. That said, there are some affordable TVs out there that still deliver a solid experience. They won’t challenge the specifications of flagship models, but they still can be considered winners with what you’re going to pay for them.
In this roundup of cheap TVs from Costco, we highlight three models that you should buy and three you should avoid, all based on Costco shopper review ratings. We supplement these ratings with reviews from reputable websites and comments on social media from others who have purchased these TVs.Buy: Hisense A45NF Series 1080p LED TV
The Hisense A45NF Series 1080p LED TV is the most affordable option on this list at just $99.99 for a 32-inch screen. Impressively, it also has the highest average rating in this roundup at 4.2 stars after 59 customer reviews. It’s not a 4K TV, but it’s powered by the Amazon Fire TV platform for access to streaming services and it comes with an Alexa Voice Remote for voice commands. The TV can also wirelessly connect to speakers and headphones via Bluetooth.
Hisense is our top pick among cheap smart TV brands, so it’s not a surprise that this Hisense model is punching above its weight. Costco shoppers who recommend it are happy with its picture quality and smooth smart features, especially when you consider its price. However, there are some lingering complaints on the TV’s durability and long-term reliability, particularly with its display.Buy: Hisense QD6 Series 4K QLED TV
Our next recommendation is another Hisense TV, specifically the Hisense QD6 Series 4K QLED TV. With an average rating of 4.0 stars after 74 reviews, it’s just $199.99 for the 43-inch model or $239.99 for the 50-inch model. When you consider that this is a 4K TV with QLED technology and an AI-powered upscaler, that’s a pretty good deal. It also runs on Amazon’s Fire TV platform, comes with the Alexa Voice Remote, and it supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision for a cinematic experience in your living room.
The Hisense QD6 Series offers straightforward smart TV features and a picture quality that’s great for its affordable cost, according to Costco customers.
