New TV - 100, 200 or 400hz, does it really matter?

Looking at a 47' approx TV.

Now the price seems directly linked to the refresh rate. The higher the number, the higher end the TV.

Now I am told that the higher rate shows itself as smoother movement and action with less smearing.

After standing like a lemon with a blank expression staring at tellies for too long in John Lewis this afternoon, I struggled to tell the difference.

What actual experience do people of the PH massive have on this matter? Is it with the extra and can you tell the difference when you get the TV set up at home?

Thanks
