20" LCD Refurbished

The bright, clear picture of the 20" LC-20S7U can light up your bedroom, office, or kitchen without gobbling up precious space. Sharp's high-performance LCD panel design has an effective anti-glare coating that provides greater brightness and wider viewing angles. The LC-20S7U's picture is bright enough that you can place it just about anywhere ? even near windows, doors, or other light sources ? and still enjoy vivid colors and crisp contrast.

This TV has built-in tuners for receiving digital and analog over-the-air broadcasts. When analog TV broadcasts are turned off in 2009, this set will keep right on delivering clear, ghost-free images with no interruption of your viewing enjoyment. (Although the LC-20S7U can receive HDTV signals, it displays them at 480p.)
