Sadly they no longer make or restock their dumb TVs. They're desktop monitor only.

I bought one of their TVs in 2019, it's fabulous if your criteria is "turns on, displays what is connected to its inputs, and has decent video quality", and nothing more. I would recommend them heartily, if you can get access to one.

Which is interesting, since the E247BD-FSRD is a TV and one of the first ones mentioned on their web site. It does not seem to be available anywhere, though. (The Sceptre web site says Amazon and Walmart; but, neither carries it.)

The monitors lack the tuner and the cable/antenna connector; so, if you're only playing of a computer, they should work fine.

I have two Sceptre TVs and I recommend them, as well, if you can find them.
