5 of 5 A great buy for what I needed Thursday, September 17, 2009
tactsman from Fayetteville, NC  

I purchased this monitor to replace a dead 17" CRT for a customer with a low-end IBM desktop. The applications that they use are not high-res so I can't speak to how well it works for graphics-intensive apps. It was easy to install, looks good, and couldn't beat the price when puchased. The only con for me is that the base is a bit light and the display was installed on a swing-arm platform. But I resolved the issue by drilling holes in the base and the platform and zip-tied it down. The customer is very pleased and, hey, that's what counts.

4 of 5 It CAN be tilted! Wednesday, August 26, 2009
Philip from Honesdale PA  
This is a very inexpensive, good basic monitor, with lots of adjustments possible (I like maximum resolution/small icons, but the missus prefers less and larger ... guess who wins!). Two other reviewers are incorrect: The monitor does tilt. When first set up, it's kind of stuck at one angle, and I thought that was it, but when I gave it a firm twist it snapped out of that angle, and then became fully adjustable (and no, I didn't break anything).

5 of 5 Plug and play! Monday, April 06, 2009
Steve from VA  
Plugged it in, it "self-configured" (came with a disk, but didn't need it). Upgrading from a 15" flat panel. I LOVE IT. I was hesitant buying an off-brand, but I figured all flat-panels probably are made my the same factories in China.. so no biggie. Great price, great quality picture, fast shipping. (The shipping isn't free though) All-in-all a good deal.

5 of 5 Acer Monitor works fine Monday, March 09, 2009
A Customer from Decatur,Alabama  
This 17" LCD monitor is picture perfect. Out of the well packaged container, onto my desk and wired in took about 12 minutes. No cold spots and the color adjustments are a breeze to set up. Highly recommend this reasonally priced monitor by Acer.

sk from from Philly  
Best monitor for the money. I use it because the back light of my laptop died and I didn't want to spend $500+ to fix it. I have a wireless mouse and keyboard and put the laptop under the desk . Great solution

5 of 5 Cheap Easy Solution For A VGA Monitor Monday, March 02, 2009
AK from Philly  
I just needed a VGA monitor to hook up to a security DVR system, nothing special so this was perfect. For $100 shipped, this was the best deal online for a 17" flat panel monitor. I've bought several other ACER monitors and havent had any issues with them so I decided to purchase this brand over a no name manufacturer. Only has the VGA connection so if that's all you need, get this!

5 of 5 Great Deal Wednesday, February 25, 2009
A Customer from New Orleans  
Surprisingly good monitor at a very low price. Only downside is that it can't be tilted, so you may have to elevate it to get it at eye level. No bad pixels, very good clarity, and it comes with a three year warranty. Buy.com, as usual, was great on delivery speed. I highly recommend this monitor.

5 of 5 What I expected Monday, January 12, 2009
A Customer from Mpls, MN  
I purchased this as a replacement. The unit has nice brilliance and no dead pixels. It auto-configures easily and provides a great picture for general computing. Since I have only had the product for about 30 days, I cannot attest to its longevity. But, it appears to be a good value for my needs.

A Customer from West Fenwick, DE  
Excellent monitor for the price and simple to hook up. Arrived very quickly (during the Christmas rush no less)and in original box with picture on outside of box as well as a handle which shippers can't help but notice and, hopefully, treat a little more gingerly, Resolution is great.

This 17" screen Acer monitor is a value packed monitor and I love the Acer brand. The only draw back is the monitor doesn't tilt - but other than that it has beautiful colors and certainly priced right.

3 of 5 You Get What You Pay For Tuesday, August 19, 2008
A Customer from New York, NY  
I wanted an inexpensive LCD monitor with decent technical specs that was NOT widescreen...not easy to find these days. That's what you get with this monitor. Setup is easy. No dead pixels. Very bright display. However, the colors are rather washed out and the contrast, especially between lighter colors, is a bit weak (maybe the display is too bright?). Also, the viewing angle from above is very poor (e.g., if you're standing instead of sitting). All in all, an OK monitor at a very good price.
