Summary: Not worth the money.
Review: Let's List the good things first:
-size
-hi definition
-priceAnd now the bad:
-No screen protector
-No anti-glare covering
-Poor contrast
-The buttons on the remote do not work or do a function other than what they are labeled. For instance hitting the volume on mine brings up the sleep timer.
-Tinny sound despite BBE sound enhancement. Should have known better than to buy an APEX. For a bit more money a higher end TV of a major brand name is a much better investment.

Summary: Best value for the price
Review: I bought it at amazon.com two months ago to replace my Sony Wega 27". Very happy with it. Some people mentioned it was too dark for progressive scan DVD player, but I don't have this problem. The picture is bright and clear.

Summary: Got a great deal thanks to all the poor reviews on here
Review: a guy in the bay area won this TV from a local car dealer and was selling it for cheap partially as a result of poor reviews on here. THANKS Y'ALL THIS TV IS AWESOME and I GOT IT IN THE BOX DELIVERED TO MY HOUSE for ...!!!!!!!!!!! The first thing i did was pick up an apex progressive scan DVD off of amazon, very affordable. The progressive scan makes a difference and is worth it.
This TV is a great value. We replaced a very good quality sony trinitron 27" TV and are very happy. We mostly watch DVD's and very little TV. The picture quality on this baby is impressive. It is also the same depth as my old sony and fit well and looks great in our tv room. In case this matters to you - this is the loudest TV in the world. The volume goes up to 100. The loudest we have gone is 30. Anything beyond that might cause hearing damage. We usually listen to movies at about 12-15. Think Spinal Tap. The TV has done that popping thing once where it makes a popping sound and the screen goes blank for a minute. Luckily I had heard that this is normal for rear projection to do, or we may have paniced - don't worry if this happens. about all the knocks on amazon about it being hard to use - what isn't hard to use? as a tcehnical person i'm always amazed at how hard to use and poorly documented a kids toy can be. particularly if you are putting it together christmas morning and have been up late drinking nog with mrs clause. gave it a 4 and not a 5 because the universal remote and the documentation are weak. but those are minor issues
...
you can't go wrong.

Summary: What a Christmas!
Review: I bought an APEX television for me and my husband for Xmas. Within six weeks the TV went out and from that day on our lives have not been the same. APEX CS is HORRIBLE!! They have given us every song and dance known to man. We bought ours from Fingerhut and neither one of them will help. The two service people they told us to call for APEX do not service my area. APEX says they are only 10 miles from my home and one is 50, the other 40. That's ONE WAY! We had to buy another TV (RCA). We are now having to store the APEX TV and my credit is kaput because of APEX. Fingerhut said they would take it back within six months but I would have to pay shipping of $72. I would throw myself in front of one of these TV's in a store to keep someone from buying one and have the headaches that we have experienced.

Summary: TV Good... Apex Service... somewhat less so
Review: Delivery and set up were great! TV worked well right out of the box. The manual provided is a little on the flimsy (poorly translated) side, but I can live with that. The remote problem listed below I suspect is user error. I thought mine was broken as well, then realized that I had to press the "tv" button in order to control the TV. The picture is indeed a bit dark but very good overall. I've had the TV for a month and am very satisfied. However, when I called Apex to report a problem with some bizarre "smudges" on the INSIDE of the screen, I experienced my first real problem with the TV. They had no one in my area who could fix it. I live in Houston. As in Texas. Are you familiar with this place (sarcasm ended)? Anyway, they apologized and promised to get back with me in 2 days. It's now been 7 and counting. I'm still happy with the TV, but uncertain about the company. What good is a warranty if the company doesn't have any way to honor it? And never calls back? The TV was a bargain at $520 (delivered), let's hope it remains so. Ok, let's end on a positive note. My DVD's have never looked better and my wife and I are having a blast on "movie night".

Summary: Best deal I ever got
Review: This is truely the best deal I have ever got, worked great out of the box. I have not had to do any adjustments at all. Great T.v for the money, not a hd but when they come down in price I will probably buy one too.

Summary: happy so far
Review: my tv was waaay too dark out of the box, even with bright/contrast jacked up to 100 each. i called apex (no busy signals for me) and they gave me the name and number of the authorized service center in my area. tech came out and fixed with no problem. tech also freaked out when he saw i got the tv for $520 after rebate and shipping. he said that's an unbeatable price. he was impressed. and i'm impressed now, too, since it's been fixed. i can see why people would spend a lot more money (images could be crisper), but for me this is a perfect set until hdtv becomes the standard. dvds on my progressive scan player look awesome. and ps2 games play very well. i was worried at first, but overall i'm very satisfied.

Summary: TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT
Review: The item that I ordered was shipped to me in 2 wks. I opened the box after delivery with an excitement and guess what I got? A defective tv. And from that day on I am constantly in contact with the service and amazon but the service will tell me they ordered the part but Apex isnt sending it, and Apex wont even respond. The worst product ever. Total waste of your money. I would pay a couple of hundred bucks more and get a working tv from a reliable brand like Toshiba, Sony, RCA, long story short DONT BUY APEX!

Summary: APEX does not want customers!!
Review: The only explanation that I have for the lack of service APEX offers is that they do not want customers. They are destined to go out of business. Sure, delivery was great... the first three months were great... but then, all of a sudden, the color in the picture totally distorts making it impossible to watch. I have been dealing with customer support now for TWO MONTHS!!! This is the honest to God truth! I wouldn't take time to write a review otherwise. I was nice to them for so long, and they just became more and more rude over time. I shouldn't have a problem like this so soon after purchase, but even so, being under manufacture warranty, THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY NOW! I have told their customer service (ha!) that I am going to spread the word all over the Internet that APEX is ripping off consumers and should be put out of business. Buy from a more established manufacturer.
