Dear Insignia:

We have a

TV model NS19D31ONA19

Frequently, our TV screen is blocked by a square notice saying:

'Requires you to use the amplifier or sound bar's remote control to adjust volume.'

Sometimes this irritating thing happens for only a few minutes, sometimes for several minutes.

Any suggestions on what to do?

Best,

Cons:
  • Bad quality and bad service

Preferred solution: I want them to fix our TV!!!

My TV turns on, I can change channels, but there's no image. Please help me.

I've pushed every button on the television, and nothing happens. It's just a black screen.

I tried to find a customer service number, but I couldn't find one for Insignia. That's the kind of television I have.

Purchased my washer on December 30th...

purchased my washer on December 30th 2025,Insignia 4.7 high efficiency top loader (NS-WMT41WA5) on march 16th 2026 the door lock broke E4 it was reported and work order opened # 4958**** incident number,after numerous calls over two hours snd asked to call 4 separate departments until found the right one.this was on march 16th 2026 since then the repair company has pushed back the work as they state parts back order!!! on 4 separate dates this has happened march 27th April 14th may 3rd and now June 8th stating it will be june 30th 2026 over THREE MONTHS!!!

On June 8th 2026 after again numerous calls all over best buy and insignia I got to state the unacceptable customer service treatment ,I think by requesting a replacement machine after three months is certainly not unreasonable??? but of course i get told by BEST BUY that i must wait for the parts I requested a phone number for insignia to request a better solution but the number given never answers *** i have tried now for 4 days straight!!! at different times of the day but no ANSWER!!! W T F .

terrible terrible service both of you Best buy and Insignia you might have my money with a crap service but guess what i can get crap services anywhere else oh BTW the order number below is on the bill of purchase on December 30th 2026 from the Best But Store at *********,i added that information becyuou wil say not traceable!!! WHY ??? because the US establishment requires a BBY NUMBER just so you know good luck with that !!

ALL I WANT IS A WORKING WASHING MACHINE SND I DONT THINK THAT IS IN ANY BIT UNREALISTIC OR UNREASONABLE!!! AFTER THREE MONTHS WITH A GUARANTEE YOU CANT SEEM TO FIX ,if you require any more details please call me *** unlike insignia I WILL ANSWER

Loss:
$517
Pros:
  • Price for quality
Cons:
  • No guarantee respect

Preferred solution: A replacement for the broken machine that they cannot repair!!

User's recommendation: purchase elsewhere!! unacceptable service nor guarantee honored

  • - Purchased Nov 2024 at Best Buy.
  • - Post-warranty, vertical streaks and red distortion; seeking Insignia repair or replacement for a defective panel.
Insignia 70” F50 Series – Panel failure / Request for manufacturer resolution

My Insignia 70 Class F50 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV, purchased from Best Buy in November 2024. At the time of purchase, I was told that this TV was covered because Insignia is Best Buy's house brand, meaning Best Buy was acting as the manufacturer.

The TV has now, conveniently 3 months after the warranty expired, developed a severe screen failure. The display shows vertical black and gray streaks bleeding down from the top of the screen, along with solid red color distortion across most of the panel. There is no physical damage, no cracks, and the TV has not been dropped or mishandled. This is clearly an internal LCD panel failure.

Best Buy has declined to assist me because the warranty has expired. This type of failure is not normal wear and tear, especially for a television that is just over one year old.

This is a latent manufacturing defect in the display panel. I am requesting that Insignia review this as a manufacturer panel defect and provide a repair, replacement, or appropriate resolution.

Loss:
$400

Preferred solution: Replacement

Stoped working in less than a year

AI Highlights
  • - TV won't power on despite troubleshooting; purchased within a year.
  • - Request warranty service and next steps; can provide purchase proof, model.

Hello,

I am contacting you regarding my Insignia TV, which I purchased less than one year ago. The TV has stopped working and will no longer turn on, despite attempting the recommended troubleshooting steps.

Based on my purchase date, I believe the TV is still covered under Insignias 1-year limited manufacturers warranty.

I would like to request warranty service and information on the next steps for repairing or replacing the TV.

I can provide my proof of purchase, model number, serial number, and any other information needed to process my warranty claim.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your prompt response.

Insignia remote sucks so much

Ode to an Insignia Remote

Oh Insignia, oh how your remote sucks so much.

No normal hands, no normal fingers can grab or hold your remote.

Your remote sucks so much.

Oh no the remote has fallen and come apart.

Oh no my Insignia remote sucks so much.

Maybe tape will make this Insignia remote not suck so much.

Maybe Insignia should send me a remote that doesnt suck so much.

Oh no it has fallen again and come apart.

My program is paused until my sucky Insignia remote

is patched together with tape.

Oh look I can finally unpause my program.

Goddamn this remote sucks

Cons:
  • Remote really sucks

Terrible

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The washer cycles oddly and spins into an error.
  • - Options: fill to the top or use delicate mode; both unsatisfactory.

Look I dont write reviews but this washer is so bad. I dont have alot of money but it will start every wash doing some cycling thing which puts all clothes on one side as soon as it spins it goes into error.

I hate this machine. The only options I hv found is fill washer completely to the top or pot it in delicate mode. But in delicate mode my clothes dont smell fresh.

The other mode you will have to open a rearrange clothes several times. I hate this machine I should have stayed with laundry mat
