It is a very nice and versatile LCD TV and monitor.However, I purchased it mainly to be used as a TV while working in my kitchen.I quickly found that unless viewed head on, especially vertically, the picture will vary from a very faded looking picture to an almost black screen.This makes it totally unusable for me for kitchen use.The base desparately needs to be vertically adjustable for use almost anywhere.If you can place it at eye level while seated, you will have a nice 15" TV.

I opened this TV and hooked it right up and it was good sound and picture. We got this for our camper and it works great. Also, it is as light as a feather.
