(3 out of 5) by Donavon Mcclard on Oct 19, 2009 Product has all the good attributes Viewsonic can display, except
for the sound. It is ideal small LCD TV that fits easily into
any room. It is fine for kitchen, where we planned to use it. Alas,
the sound quality was intolerable and we returned the set.

ViewSonic N1630w 16-Inch 720p LCD HDTV review
(4 out of 5) by J. B. Bormann on Sep 30, 2009 (South Texas)I seldom if ever write reviews, but this will be an exception. After extensive looking for a 16 x 9 aspect ratio small tv set which I could hang above my kitchen countertop and below the kitchen cabnets, I finally came to the conclusion that this was one of the "very" few which there was to choose from.
For a lcd tv of this size, it is well endowed with neat features... inputs, such as HDMI, S video, etc. The cost of this set is relative inexpensive ($176 from Amazon's dealer, "J&R") and it is a nice looking unit. Oh, did I also say that it is the only set of it's size catagory with the universal "VESA" mounting capability on it's back side.
It looks nice, has a great picture, and fits perfect. So, why not five star rating? The audio !! It is simply not very good... in fact, the telephone actually has almost as good a sound quality. Even setting the tone controls (in the menu), it still sounds like two tin cans with a string.
Several other reviews spoke of this, and I must say that now that I own this set, I concur 100%. If you are listening to voice it isnt "that bad", but dont say you were not warned that the sound is poor. Yes, I'm keeping the set, cause it's a pefect fit with excellent picture, and, well.... I'll get use to the sound -- after all, it's only used when in the kitchen (when there is a football game on, and you cant afford to miss a play).

Not a good product
(2 out of 5) by K&KS on Sep 23, 2009 (New Hampshire)I was hoping for more. The picture was poor, particularly from an angle off dead center and the sound was weak and thin. I returned it for a 19inch Samsung which is much better.
Basic but does the job
(3 out of 5) by J. Nauth on Sep 7, 2009 (MInnesota)Bought this for our kitchen. Nice size and decent picture. The sound is not too good though, very tinny sounding. Good TV for the price.
