Summary: Nice Product
Comment: I am very happy with the TV. We bought it for a mobile location in a boat. Mounted it in the v-berth on an Omni-mount. Swing it out into the open when you need it and back up against the wall and its out of the way. The detachable power supply converts 110 to 12 volt, so no problem adapting it to run directly from the 12 volt system. Others have complained about the power supply brick. I would rather have the componets in two boxes, rather than all the weight in one. On the boat, we don't use the power supply anyway. Size and weight of the TV are perfect for this appliction. One small complaint is the volume level from the small speakers. We often have it turned up to about 75%. Not a major detraction though.

Summary: Great counter TV
Comment: I am very pleased with this TV. THe size is perfect for the kitchen. Great picture. (Except if you sit to the side of the TV, you don't see the vibrate colors) But as long as you stand or sit right infront of the TV - it is great. That is the reason I give it a 4, it would be nice if when sitting off to the side of the TV the colors would hold true. But not a big deal. I'm just needing it to keep up with news. And the power supply box is NOT that big and no big deal. I set my TV up in the corner of my kitchen counter and the box sits behind it and no one can see it or knows it is there. I love all the bells and whistles of the settings. When I put it on mute, the closed caption comes on and I LOVE THAT feature.

Summary: WOW !!!
Comment: This tv has an excellent picture. Sharp with deep colors. From some reviews i read before buying this one, i was expecting a huge and encombersome power supply. The power supply measures exactly 5 1/4"x 2 1/2"x 1 1/2" thick. Seems very reasonable to me. I bought this tv for the van and it works directly off the van's 12v cigarette lighter plug. {The 12v power cords are easily obtainable in truck stops}. When we turned that tv on the first time, my wife and i both said wow. I give it five stars.

Summary: Great Kitchen TV
Comment: This TV is sharp(pun intended. It has been flawless since last Xmas. I think the sound is great too! It also moves very nicely from the kitchen to the porch and our camper. My wife loves it because it is so light. I also bought a very small dvd player for it. The power supply is large but I expected that and find it to be no problem. The viewing angle is also very good. I think it's a great buy. I got mine refurbished at a great price.

Comment: We are very happy with this TV on our kitchen counter.
Perfect size/color/price for the application.
We hide the power-supply box behind the TV.
Easel-style stand minimizes TV footprint and height.
Speakers sound fine.
Closed Captioning works great.
Stereo Headphone Jack is convenient--we use it with wireless headphones.
Remote is fine.

 

Editorial Reviews:

Sharp's LC-13S1U-B provides a unique, versatile solution for home installation. The LC-13S1U-B's stylish yet simple design, with speakers placed below the LCD screen, makes this television much narrower than side-speaker models. This enables the LC-13S1U-B to fit into many places throughout the home, all without sacrificing any features! The LC-13S1U-B utilizes Sharp's proprietary Advanced Super View/Black TFT Panel, which provides levels of high brightness (430 cd/m2), a 500:1 contrast ratio, and wide viewing angles (170? x 170?). Additionally, the LC-13S1U-B is an EDTV monitor, which means it is compatible with 480p signals from progressive DVD players.The LC-13S1U-B includes an easel-style table stand that allows the TV to occupy an amazingly small footprint. In addition, the stand is easily removed for wall mounting applications. These models use the VESA 100mm standard mounting pattern and are compatible with a wide range of brackets including Sharp's AN-PSMARM and AN-PUCM.
