I am in the process of starting a kitchen and bathroom company, part of our advertising will be a display in a garden centre and this will incorporate a 40" TV screen.
The TV will show videos and photos and will be on for prolonged periods, I want a screen that will be reliable. look good, have decent sound and not suffer badly from screen burn,I do not have to pay for the electricity so I am not hugely concerned about power consumption.
Value for money does matter but I do not want to skimp and buy something poor quality and unreliable.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks.

You would want a commercial grade Panasonic or Samsung. Does it need sound. Most commercial screens don't have speakers.

How many hours of use per day? Some screens have 24/7 runtime some have 8 hours runtime.

Domestic screens can work out for you however you may find them failing after 7-8 months.

Panasonic have a better warranty then Samsung as Panasonic will replace when a single pixel fails. Samsung it's 5!
It will be on for a maximum of 8 hours per day, it will need sound, I would rather not have external speakers but could if I had to.
I have a Panasonic plasma at home and I have been very happy with it so I am drawn towards Panasonic.

This is what I am considering:

The built in Wi-Fi could be useful for downloading content from th internet and it looks to be a good tv for the price.

Thanks for the advice, I bought the Panasonic, it seemed like a good deal and should hopefully do the job. I will just have to wait and see how it copes.
