We had a Visio 46" for 12 years that still works perfect. I got the bug for a larger one and brought home a Visio 65" .
After 2 or 3 days we felt it was too large viewing it from our normal sitting positions that's about 15'.
We both agreed that with that size, we were involuntarily scanning from side to side trying to catch everything on the screen.
So 55" too small, 65" too big, and no one makes new screens that are 60" anymore .
Luckily Samsung is one of the few manufacturers to make a 58". It works perfectly with the furniture it sits on without dominating.
And no need to wall mount the TV, as the viewing height is perfect.
We feel hit the sweet spot with the Samsung 58".
Bigger is not always better IMHO.
