This projector gets good reviews, and carries the same 2 year warranty, but it is a refurb. unit:

Something about a refurb. PJ has a negative connotation to me, but maybe other have had success(?)

    Go for it. Epson is top notch in customer service. I took my JVC down and left my renters with an Epson PJ in it's place. No regrets as the picture quality is awesome.
