I've had this tv for 3 years and it is wonderful, great picture and sound. No smart color or anything it's does everything for you. And it's made by the wonderful company Sony!

I recently purchased this television for my dorm room and have been very impressed with the quality of picture and sound. The images are sharp and crystal clear, with customized settings for watching movies, playing games, etc. There are two sets of A/V cable hook-ups (one for a vcr, one for nintendo 64, etc) a S-Video link which provides an excellent dvd viewing experience. The multi-function remote also makes integrating this product with other components convenient and easy. The only downside to this product is that it weighs in at 86 pounds; although the hefty weight is a result of the 3/4" thick glass used in making the flat screen.

OK, I bought this TV right when it come out, and granted I was doing all of my TV viewing through a 13" TV/VCR combo. I have to say though that the picture is awesome, the screen really is glare resistant (I watch it with the sun directly on it sometimes). I love to watch NASCAR races on this thing, the sound is excellent and it feels like being there. Buy it if you can!

I purchased this model one year ago. It has a beautiful picture and the sound is great, especially for "tv speakers". The remote control is well designed. It is easy to program for other non-Sony equipment. The screen displays network information such as network name, program name, etc., when changing channels. I have not experienced any problems with the picture or speakers as reviewers did with other Sony models. I enjoy the picture on this 27" better than my Mitsubishi big screen that cost thousands of dollars! Sony has done it again!

If you want a long lasting TV buy this one. MY last Sony Trinitron lasted 15 years.

The TV is great, I've just had a few minor problems. First of all, after receiving it from Amazon, it didn't work out of the box. I had to drive it out of town to have a connection on the picture tube repaired before I could watch it. Now that I have it back, there are three lines of what I would describe as dim pixels on the screen. Not a big deal, annoying at best. Otherwise, I'm happy with the Sony as always.

I bought a Sony KV-27 18 months ago, I admit the quality of the picture is good and this is why I want to pay more to own it.
But it stop working today after some strange flash when I powered it on. One of my friends has the similar problem with her Sony 27'' WEGA just after 2 month use, she has to pay >$200 to repair it.
I must say the quality of sony products is bad!

I have had this TV for about 2 years now and serveral months ago I noticed a problem with the cable we had connected to the TV. After several hours of use the picture would develop wavy lines of static that would eventually make the TV unwhatchable. I've tried switching out the cable box the VCR even the coaxial cable the picture still deteriorates after no more than 5 hours of use. The use of the VCR tends to speed the occurence of the problem and can obliterate the picture in roughly 4 hours. Also when whatching cable TV I have noticed ghosts in the picture. I have tried switching cable boxes with the TV in the other room but the problem persits. I would like to belive that the problem is with the cable but after discussing the matter with several of my chums who were pleased with the cable on the next street I ruled that out.

I am disapointed with this TV.

Why is this TV so awesome? Because it's got everything to creat your own bedroom entertainment center. This TV makes TV so funnnnnnn!
