5 stars because the price is right.......2007-08-22

This TV is very good for the price. Specs include: 8ms repsonse time, 1000:1 contrast ratio, ATSC/NTSC tuner, built in DVD player, HDMI in, and others listed in the description.

Features aside, this TV delivers a solid picture. I put it in my roughly 100 sqft. apartment bedroom and it is much larger than the 13" tube TV it repaced. With only a 2-d comb filter, picture sometimes looks a little washed out, but not too too badly. Plus, the 2-d comb filter is only used on the composite-in and NTSC cable in, nothing else. Motion blurring is non-existent at best, and only a mild nuisance at worst. I was watching a Futurama DVD and when the ship flies by at the start of the intro, it gets a little blurry but not so bad that it is a large distraction.

Preset picture modes are good, and the menu gives you quite a bit of wiggle room for fine tuning the picture, given the price of the TV. The menu also has an audio adjustment feature but this does hardly anything to effect the sound. The speakers are only passable. I reccommend using the audio out function as it will give you so much more.

progressive scan DVD player itself is a nice compact slot-loading unit with good controls and a decent picture. The remote is easy to use and has a decent range which is good because this TV is NOT compatible with universal remotes (as far as I know anyway).

In short, this is a good solid TV with nice features for a low price. If you are good at shopping around you may be able to get one of these for the same price as a new xbox 360 premium which, might I add, comes in very clearly and crisply through the HDMI in. It's not going to be a "wonderful change the world amazingly superb ridiculous" TV but it is good enough to warrant the price for frugalists.

Great value and function.......2007-07-03

I got three of these to run slide shows continuously for display and they've been great. I like the side loading DVD player because it keeps it under 4" thick. The only disadvantage I see is that you have to have the remote to use DVD menus. The button controls on the unit are limited and basically only for the TV functions. Overall it's a great value for the size and functionality for the price!

Excellent Television, and a Great Price!!.......2007-06-27

This TV is exactly what we were looking for. The built-in DVD player is a big plus. We wanted to be able to play our in-house DVD movies on this unit, and I was concerned how, and if, they would play. After reading good reviews elsewhere, I ordered it, and have been very satisfied. I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

I like It........2007-06-10

We just got it last week and it came in on time and in good condition. Since it came all the way across the states I was alittle worried. The TV picture is good and the DVD works. It was easy to hook up. I have not yet got the Dish Network remote to run the TV. Hope I can figure it out. I just have to turn it on with one remote and change the channels with the other. The price was real good from Amazon.

I would recomend it.

Amazon.com Product Description

The Sharp 27-F543 is a 27-inch flat-screen TV with inputs for DVD players, VCRs, game consoles, or camcorders. It has a two-line digital comb filter, which separates the color signal from the black-and-white signal to reduce noise and artifacts, resulting in higher picture quality. With MTS (multichannel TV sound) stereo and SAP (second audio program), the 27-F543 can receive and decode stereo and SAP wherever they are available.

The EZ Setup feature is activated the first time the television is turned on, and will automatically prompt you to attach the cable or antenna and start the initial channel setup with the touch of just one button. The built-in V-Chip is an electronic blocking device that lets parents control the programming to prevent children from viewing questionable programs. Using the onscreen display and ratings system, you can screen programs according to age and content.

Features include color temperature control, tone control, sleep timer, closed captioning, and VMS (velocity modulation scanning), which increases the refresh rate of an image, yielding a brighter and more accurate picture.

You get three composite-video inputs: two on the rear and one on the front for convenient hookup to your favorite gaming console or camcorder. The remaining rear composite-video inputs can accommodate any DVD player or video source. There is a rear S-video input and component-video input, as well. Also included is a universal light-up remote with DVD control (2 AAA batteries included).

Customer Reviews:

Great TV for its price.......2006-06-12

Like previous reviewers have said, this TV can't match HD. But I also agree that the only difference in picture quality between this and HD is a slight increase in resolution, this has one of the clearest non-HD displays I've ever seen. If you want to make the most of this TV, hook up your DVD player through either the S-video or the component video (preferably) and look at how vibrant and rich the colors are and how sharp the picture itself is.

get what you pay for.......2005-08-07

absolutely fantastic?? but near-HDTV quality? "stellar"? lol. ummm...no.

you can see horizontal and vertical pixel lines (whatever they're called) even when playing DVD. Granted, it's not bad at all, but it gives a sort of washed-out picture overall. Actually I'm not complaining, because I bought this for less than $250 and like the other guy said, you get what you pay for. This is just an average tv. no HDTV-quality hear folks.

one thing that is below average is the speed of the built-in tuner. I don't have cable TV, so I hooked up my antenna into this TV. switching channels in the UHF band is horrendously slow. At least 3, up to 8 seconds of black screen before the channel displays. It is extremely frustrating for channel surfing. No problems with VHF though and I imagine cable TV has no problems, but UHF is a rough experience. Having said that though, the quality, once the channel displays, is much better than the tuner I was using in my old VCR before I bough this TV. UHF channels that used to have lots of static and noise are now suddenly clear. So i'ts got that going for it I guess.

Sound quality is average too. No bass whatsoever. Let's face it folks, this is cheap TV. You won't be disappointed with the quality for the price, but you won't be blown away either.

Hope you find this review helpful.

Good, not great..........2005-02-23

You can find this tv at Costco for $250, which is an incredible price for a tv of this caliber... BUT, beware, unlike mentioned before, the quality is nowhere near HD, but if you're looking for a cheap, decent, "big" tv, then look no further. I'm pleased with mine except for the fact that it isn't HD ready, which I knew when I bought it, so that's my fault. If you are going to be watching a lot of DVD's as opposed to cable tv, then this tv is perfect; no matter if you have the color temperature setting at low or high.

*EDIT*****
I didn't know this TV came with component cable inputs. This means that this TV is much more deserving of 6 stars, rather than only 5. I've used the S-Video plug-in more times than my actual LCD monitor because it is almost like built-in anti-aliasing. Crystal clear picture that makes you just say, "wow." All my friends are jealous that this TV is part of my dorm room and they all come over to watch movies on it. It's that good.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC.......2005-02-21

The previous reviewer with the bad picture quality, etc. simply MUST have gotten a bad unit, because ours is absolutely FANTASTIC.

The picture approaches HDTV in clarity and resolution, the color purity, saturation, and subtle beauty is stellar and the component video signal in is nothing short of a revelation, only limited by it's standard-def resolution.

Reflection side-to-side is MINIMAL. Film grain is often evident, for example, even though this is standard-definition.

I would easily go so far as to say that this unit pushes standard-definition resolution to it's absolute max in terms of performance and all other metrics above.

You honestly owe yourself a good, in-person demo of this unit, it is stellar.

If this TV ever broke, I'd absolutely buy it again.

This is a Costco dud.......2004-11-29

This Sharp TV is NOT sharp! Cheap, but you do get what you pay for. We were told at Costco that "Don't worry, this isn't a discontinued model or anything like that". Baloney. That's just what it is. The picture is marginal at best. Do yourself a big favor and spend a few more dollars to upgrade!

Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy the elegant design of Sharp's affordable, 27-inch 27U-F510 flat-tube television, whose high-style cabinet enhances most any home theater. Increased viewing angles over standard tube sets, dramatically reduced glare, and precise picture quality are just a few of this set's hallmarks. The 27U-F510's high-focus, dark-tint picture tube improves color reproduction and contrast, while its three-line comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped t-shirt). Contrast Enhancer is Sharp's proprietary circuitry that further enhances black level and dark screen details.

VMS (velocity modulation scanning) improves definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas. Front and dual rear audio/video inputs (including S-video and premium component-video inputs) simplify connection with other audio/video equipment. Five watts per channel power the set's own speakers, and variable audio outputs let you enjoy the sound through a stereo's speakers while controlling the volume from the remote.

Channel labeling customizes the channel display, while Personal Preference let's you configure the remote with favorite channels for customized surfing. EZ Setup automatically sets TV channels to receive standard cable broadcasts. The set automatically displays closed-captioned information (if available) when the mute button is pressed. TV rating blocking technology (V-chip) allows users to control programming and prevent children from viewing questionable content. A view timer feature lets you monitor a child's viewing duration by restricting TV time to 30-minute intervals. A Universal Plus remote (with DVD control) features glow-in-the-dark buttons that make it easy to use, even in dimly lit rooms.

Excellent Quality, Latest Generation Technology.......2002-12-17

I purchased this TV after much research and it has exceeded my expectations. The picture is the excellent! My expectations have been exceeded watching both Dishnetwork and DVDs. I could have bought a lesser quality, larger set (i.e. 32 inch) but I am glad I went with quality not quantity. For todays high resolution digital media you need a set that has this capability. The 3 line comb filter, Dynamic Active Focus and Velocity modulated scanning all combine for a razor sharp, crisp picture that rivials the Sony selling for [more]. You won't be disappointed with this state of the art flat screen.
