KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Great, sharp picture. Excellent renderings. Zero defective pixels on my unit. Easy to install and set-up. Convenient under screen controls.

Weakness: No tilt; Glued on label cannot easily be removed.

I dropped down from a 17" OptiQuest CRT to this unit. Virtually no loss on the screen footprint or viewing area. Colors are sharp and vibrant. Controls are easy to use and locate. Not 1 defective pixel! Would highly recommend for a basic, no-frills 15" flat panel monitor. But be forwarned; get a can of Goof-Off from the hardware store and a pair of nose plugs. The KDS sticker on the top of the...

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: I have two & I think they are the best.

Weakness: I had one on lay-a-way & it was thrown around & the screen just flipped.

I bought the last one at the same store & returned the the defective one two days later. I felt I was being some what dishonist, but it was their fault, not the product.

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Cost and quality of image.

Weakness: none so far.

I bought two of'em: one for my workbench and one (with speakers) for 11 yr. old granddaughter's pc I built. They look great. Speakers are alittle tinny, but fine for her. Cost/quality you cant beat.

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Crystal-Clear picture, sleek design, easy set-up, single cable for power and signal (very cool)

Weakness: I wish I had another $300 to have bought the 17" version

If you want a great picture but have limited space this is a perfect replacement for a 17" CRT. The company will send out a new monitor overnight if you have problems and it just looks cool on my desk. ps - I took the sticker off in ~2 minutes with my thumbnail (but it was annoying)

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Razor sharp images. No streaking or dead pixels. Beautiful to look at; very slim. Great price.

Weakness: I had a power-supply problem. When I called KDS they quickly agreed to send me a replacement as my serial number had been recalled. No problems with the new one.

I love this monitor! It replaces my Dell 17" CRT and the viewing area is not much different. The picture, however, is not even in the same galaxy. This is the clearest monitor I have seen at any price. I am addicted to Second Nature screen savers (we all have our little idiosyncrasies) that I also use as wallpaper. Well, the images bowled me over. The are now really sharp and take on a 3D look. I...

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Crystal Clear picture, no distortion of text, very bright, easy setup

Weakness: One bad pixel.

I was replacing a twenty inch KDS monitor that had died. I saw this flat panel in my local Wal-Mart and decided to research it a little. It seemed to be the best bang for the buck. I knew it would be smaller, but like the other reviewer I don't care. The clarity is so much better and the fact that you don't have to adjust the screen to get "flat" or "straight" picture. In using the monitor I have...

KDS Radius 15" LCD Monitor

Strengths: Simple to install. Auto-configure works great the first time

Weakness: None yet

I purchased this monitor to replace a 19" CRT, knowing full well that I was giving up screen real estate. And you know what, I don't care! This screen is crystal clear and the image is easy on your eyes. If the Rad-r was 20/20 vision, than the CRT is 20/40. That being said, I have know intention of using this monitor for games. I understand CRTs are still by far the best choice. Great bang for...
