I wanted something that wasn't super expensive but still looks good. I did some research and found out that Epson is one of the most reliable brands out there. I was going to purchase the Epson VS220 because it got so many good reviews and was award winning but then I saw that the VS230 was the newer model and had 100 more lumens for the same price at the time, so I figured whichever projector had a cheaper replacement lamp would be one I would get. Turned out the replacement lamp for the VS220 was $200 but the VS230 only cost $100 to replace, and it also has more lumens so I took a leap of faith and decided on the VS230 and I'm so happy that I did. My living room looks like a small movie theater. Sports games look amazing on it, so if you're into watching games like I am that's a plus! Also if you like video games, they look great on it too! You can play all the next gen console games on it because of the HDMI port. I hope you like this projector as much as I do.

Why do I like it? It is VERY easy to operate even for a beginner. For me I had it unboxed, plugged in and projecting a movie on my wall within 10 minutes of UPS dropping it off at my door step. There are no customizations or setup you need to do, plug it in, turn it on and connect a video source. That's it. If you need to change the zoom level this one uses a digital style zoom to grow/shrink the picture, this did cause the pixels to get a little larger (in my opinion) but it wasn't bad at all. I really like that this projector has a slide cover to put over the lens when not in use to help protect it. The other projector I have doesn't have this and I worry about it getting scratched when not in use. Very unlikely scenario but it's possible,
Bottom line, I really like this projector and would recommend it for this price range.
