You can buy element TV's just about anywhere. The reason why they're generally cheaper is they're built in the USA, just like Westinghouse. Sure all the components come from elsewhere but Westinghouse manufactures in Round Rock Texas and Element TV's are manufactured in Fairfield South Carolina, thus making them cheaper than ordering a shipping container full of completed TV's, they make the mold/housing and just order the components.
Still both on the lower end but at least you know what you're getting.
You had to pay for Walmart+ in order to access a similar deal - trial membership wouldn't work. Once you were signed up and paid up, they were OOS. When the TV went back to the normal price, it was magically available everywhere. Getting refunded for your W+ membership required a chat.
According to the Target product page, this TV is eligible for a 2 year manufacturer warranty if you register the TV online in the first 90 days (with Element). As so many cry babies have posted that this is a trash TV, a second year on the warranty does seem valuable. However, in attempting to register this on the Element site, this model does not appear in the drop down menu (nor anywhere else on their site) and I wasn't able to register it. Hopefully they will correct that issue in the next 89 days.

Return says 30 days from ready to pick up
It's actually been extended for the holidays.

Is anyone purchasing this TV with an extended warranty? After reading reviews of other Element TVs on Target's website, the biggest complaint seems to be that these TV already start to fail within a few months.
It has 2yr warranty if you register it. I bought with Costco Visa to add additional 2yrs warranty. With 4yrs of warranty, that makes it pretty easy decision https://www.cardbenefits.citi.com...ranty.aspx
Is the mounting for this 300 x 200 per the Target spec listings? The image of the back sure appears to be more square (unless some random stock image). Anyway, if anyone actually has this 58" in their possession, confirmation would be appreciated. Thanks!
I can verify that it is. I probably would've still had my 65 inch if my daughter hadn't thrown anything at the screen.
Sorry have to LOL and then say sorry for the loss of your TV! I got the 65" Element last BF and am really impressed with it and that's typing on an LG 42" OLED at this moment. I got it for my bedroom which for most would be overkill but my headboard's like 16' away. I would have however went with this one for $100 less. I do go with extended warranty on these figure they will crap out after year or so then get repaired or reimbursed or they will last many years.
Thanks OP. Paid for one this morning and it's ready for pickup now. My 55" curved Samsung is on its last leg, and I missed out on both the Amazon deals during the Prime Day sale a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully it will be decent for my use. It does say there's a 30 day return policy which should be plenty of time to check it out good (or run across a better deal by then). One thing I wonder is if I would be able to use a Roku remote with the 3.5 jack in it. I've been using that as a learning tool for drumming with our praise band. Plug in the In Ear Monitors and pull up a Drum Cam version of the song on YouTube and voila. Fingers crossed that it will be good enough for my needs. But I guess anything that works has to be better than what I deal with now. But thanks again OP.

Great deal in for 1 - Roku software is so much better than android
Roku is much easier to use but everything is locked down (just like Apple devices). The Roku OS doesn't allow you to pair bluetooth devices to the TV, or install apps that aren't in the app store. Unlike the Android OS, I can sideload apps, change the home page launcher, and pair bluetooth devices directly to the TV. Plus with Android I can install a functional web browser unlike Roku. Which is why I use an android box instead of the Roku OS.

Not if you like being able to install whatever software you choose...
I could go on a very real Roku customer service rant that no one would believe. Needless to say I only use Nvidia Shields now.
Would love to see someone like EVGA make their own streaming box with just enough expandable HTPC mixed in to be a great all in one Plex server though.
I don't care how Smart my TV is, it's not getting access to the internet.
I work for Walmart and get Walmart+ for free.. was on refreshing page before 12 and it went from $298 to OOS as soon as 12pm hit. It's hard to justify this not being a ploy to get you to their site to order something else
That's cause it was botted, I ran a few bots and only hit 1. Manual users had zero chance
It would only be a deal if it were a half decent TV. Something isn't a deal just because it's cheap. This is a waste of money.
So a TV that outputs 4K, has sound and shows a picture isn't a deal at $200? Why are you in this thread let alone SlickDeals? I'm going on year 4 with a 50" Element and zero issues and the sound and picture is fine for daily use.
Thanks for the heads up, was surprised at 12 am on the 30th, no price change, and kept trying until 12.30 am, figuring it was another Walmart deal I went to sleep, looked back at the website at 8 am east coast and found it for $199, added the protection for $39 have 5 years of warranty. Thanks, great for the spare bedroom.
Hmm, do I need to upgrade the 42" 720p Panasonic plasma in the basement we don't use much? This is tempting.
Still in stock at most NE Ohio stores as of 6:45AM, so this is not like that sham Walmart sale everyone whined about. And I'm pretty sure these were actually $499 in store, because I remember walking past a display several times at one of the stores I service biweekly. At $500, no way, my new model TCL 5-series 55" was less than that, but $200 is hard to beat.
Keep the plasma....we have 4 tv in our house. 2 Panasonic Plasma 55 gt30(2013) and a Plasma 42 (2008)..both are our main TV. They had to have some boards replaced a few years ago ($100 per tv) but both are perfectly working. The other two are LCD (Sony and Samsung)...32...those we barely use. Bad thing about those old plasma is they are super heavy and they get pretty hot. LoL...but the image is better than those new tvs.

God help us all when people bash a $200 58" TV.
