    We bought a 65” LED for our back patio. For the price we paid (<$1k), we can replace it 4x and still come out cheaper than buying 1 outdoor tv.

    We paid $30 for the replacement warranty from Costco. If for any reason it stops working in the next 5 years, back to the store it goes.

    Check out the Cheetah wall mounts on Amazon. They’re super cheap and easy to install. They even give you an HDMI cable

    Quoted from Chitownpinball:

    Telling some one to buy something and then return it to the store after you have improperly used it and abused it is just.....terrible.
    You are abusing warranty programs and are the reason Amazon and other companies ban people who return too many things. You dont see an issue with that?

    Improperly used and abused? Abusing the warranty? The Costco salesman recommended this route.

    It works great, and they made $$ selling a warranty. I think Costco will be ok.

    They have an operating range for environmental factors.

    Samsung TVs can operate safely in rooms or areas in which temperatures range from 50° F to 104° F (10° C to 40° C). Temperatures outside the listed range will negatively affect the operation of your TV.

    Samsung TVs can be stored unused at temperatures ranging from -4° to 113° Fahrenheit (-20° to 45° Centigrade). Storing your TV at temperatures outside this range can damage your TV.

    Humidity range 10-80%.

    Nowhere does it say it can’t be used outdoors.
