I have had 4 Sony TVs in my life, a 29" that I dropped from 3' high when I was moving, replaced the broken part of the case and 15 years later still it still works. It's destined for the garage now for watching the game while I'm puttering around out there.

I have a 48" projection that's the downstairs rec room TV and it's fine and it's 9 years old.

My main TV is a 60" 1080P XBR2 SXRD that's in the family room, the optical engine went on it but it was replaced gratis even though it was 3 months out of warranty. That's the only problem I had with it.

My den TV is a 46" Bravia flatscreen but it's only 4 months old so I can't vouch for its longevity yet, but so far so good.

Other Sony products:

-2 receivers
-2 DVD changers
-CD changer
-Dolby S cassette deck
-BluRay Player (this one had the ethernet module replaced under warranty even though I think the cause of the issue was lightning hitting the neighbour's cable line because I had to replace my router as well)
-PS3
-2 PSPs

So I've owned a lot of Sony products over the years and had very few problems. I prefer them over any other brand. Of course, your mileage may vary.
