We just ordered this one. Best rated one on Amazon under $300 and the audio review sites gave it high marks too. It’s arriving later this week so no first hand experience yet.

Bought a complete Sonos 5.1 system with the Playbar as the fronts and center channel. It's incredible especially mated with Sonos sub and Sonos one's as rears. Worth the money.

Another option if you're only looking for a bar is Sonos playbase . Sonos almost never goes on sale but over holidays had like $100 off a bunch of their stuff like playbase, playbar etc. Then you also get the benefits of it being a sonos in addition to a typical tv bar.

Bought one of these right after Thanksgiving. For a low-priced soundbar option, which is what I was looking for, it's absolutely fantastic.

I picked up two Vizio soundbar off of Amazon.
The soundbar was around $100 and the soundbar with the satellite speakers was around $200.

I have the previous version, very good for the money.

I picked up the above. The sub really thumps clear base. Rears are discrete and fill the sound out nicely. The sub is tall so it would require a tall couch to go under, I have it behind my couch.

Vizio systems are a good deal and perform very well for the price. Spend double for a Polk system if youve got the cash and you'll not regret it. Vizio has good sound. Polk has wonderful sound.

For the record I replaced my Polk with Vizio when the Polk died. I've become a bit budget conscious.
