3 Stars off center viewing poor
previous purchase of Sharp 32″ LCD tv is great This ViewSonic 16″ cannot be viewed from below or to the side of the screen or the picture darkens and displays deep shadows. would not purchase any small screen again.
3 Stars Basic but does the job
Bought this for our kitchen. Nice size and decent picture. The sound is not too good though, very tinny sounding. Good TV for the price.
2 Stars Not a good product
I was hoping for more. The picture was poor, particularly from an angle off dead center and the sound was weak and thin. I returned it for a 19inch Samsung which is much better.
5 Stars This is a nice small television
If you’re looking for a small television with a nice picture, this is a good buy.
4 Stars ViewSonic N1630w 16-Inch 720p LCD HDTV review
I seldom if ever write reviews, but this will be an exception. After extensive looking for a 16 x 9 aspect ratio small tv set which I could hang above my kitchen countertop and below the kitchen cabnets, I finally came to the conclusion that this was one of the “very” few which there was to choose from.
For a lcd tv of this size, it is well endowed with neat features… inputs, such as HDMI, S video, etc. The cost of this set is relative inexpensive ($176 from Amazon’s dealer, “J&R”) and it is a nice looking unit. Oh, did I also say that it is the only set of it’s size catagory with the universal “VESA” mounting capability on it’s back side.
It looks nice, has a great picture, and fits perfect. So, why not five star rating? The audio !! It is simply not very good… in fact, the telephone actually has almost as good a sound quality. Even setting the tone controls (in the menu), it still sounds like two tin cans with a string.
Several other reviews spoke of this, and I must say that now that I own this set, I concur 100%. If you are listening to voice it isnt “that bad”, but dont say you were not warned that the sound is poor. Yes, I’m keeping the set, cause it’s a pefect fit with excellent picture, and, well…. I’ll get use to the sound — after all, it’s only used when in the kitchen (when there is a football game on, and you cant afford to miss a play).

3 Stars Mount This
This mount is probably not even close to the best mount you can get but it surely gets the job done. You have to pretty much disassemble the entire thing to hang it and then once it is hung it is kinda wobbly, but I am not afraid that it will FAIL. For the price what do you expect. Good enough for my 32″ LCD.
3 Stars A bit wobbly
Like a couple of other people have stated, this mount is not the most steady, but does the job. Taking it apart is definitely the way to go to mount on the wall. I will probably buy a smaller mount to use for my PC monitor. The price certainly is right
5 Stars Wall mount
Very good mount. I like the idea of pulling the TV from the wall if I desire and the up and down tilt the mount provides. All mounting hardware is included with the mount including a level and hex wrenches (metric). Highly recommended.
1 Star UNUSABLE MOUNT
I was trying to save some money on a wall mount and came across Cheatah Mounts which sells mounts that look like the ones you see at a store but waay cheaper. I was excited and ordered. Once delivered, I installed the mount (I have experience installing 3 mounts previously for various TVs). THIS IS THE WORST MOUNT I have ever installed. Installation was easy, but the metal arm sags away from the mount badly, making anything you mount on it crooked. I was really disappointed in this mount. The return policy does not cover shipping, so BUYER BEWARE. CHEETAH MOUNTS LCD TV ARTICULATING ARM WALL MOUNT FOR 23-37″ DISPLAYS BLACK
UPDATED: – The company cantacted me by phone expressing their concern about the RMA I requested. The representative was extremely helpful and wanted me to know that it was most likely a manufactuing defect. They sent me the RMA number and shipping label and are giving me a full refund. I was very impressed with their reponsiveness and would consider purchasing from them again as I know that they seem to stand behind their products and have excellent support.
5 Stars Cant’t go wrong with this mount
Got mount for my 32″ sharp. was confused about the mounting hole in the center of wall plate called cheetah mounts. The center hole is not nessacarry their are 6 other places for screws to mount to the wall. Have had no problems with mount since installed. The arms were very tight out of the box i loostened them to make installation easier, when hanging TV their was a little sag but after tightening the bolts i loostened back up that went away. Great mount asy to install. If you are going to use the 4″x4″ hole pattern you need to take 4 philips bolts out and remove the 8″ plate. Not hard to do. This is a great mount and when i called in at 6:30PM there was no answer but i received a call back the following morning. It was great customer service. Will be buying a mount for my 52″ soon

1 Star Low quality
Image quality is ok for watching VHS movies, but even normal DVDs look poor through this device. Fuzzy and blocky images. DVDs look like an old VHS through this device. On a positive note, it is easy to use.
1 Star Very bad quality…!
This product isa mess, this functions in display won’t work properly and the image is not good, don’t buy it even under 10 bucks !
1 Star It’s the thought that counts…
While I was eager to try it, and the price was good… the first one failed to work altogether out of the box, and the 2nd failed after a week. I love small Chinese companies for their willingess to try and impersonate big corporate products… but the results is always the same. Poor quality and utter failure to deliver as the more illustrious counterparts. Maybe some day small chinese electronics will actually all work, but until then I’d recommend finding a VCR or DVDR– spend the money for a tuner that works if you need one or a graphics card that has S-video or some other output that works with your tuner-less monitor.
1 Star Yankeyboy
I couldn’t make this tuner work. There were no directions included but it seemed pretty straight forward. I wrote the manufacturer they were no help at all. I hooked it up to a CRT monitor, it scanned for about 20 minutes and found 3 stations I think. My Tv gets six and my Tv converter box gets 26 with the same antenna. It’s hard to tell since none were clear enough to watch. The sound was terrible. The reception was like UHF with no UHF antenna. While at the same time in the same spot my antenna reception for both my Tv and my converter box is excellent. When I wrote to the seller they answered and agreed to take it back. They also educated me to the difference between ATSC-non-digital broadcast, which this device is, and NTSC which is digital. I’m astonished they are still marketing a product that will be obsolete in a matter of weeks. Beware!
4 Stars Nice little gadget
Functional and small. I like this little gadget. The video-out port is kind of tight so the connector will fall out if you don’t insert it right, otherwise a good item for the money.
