Hello Everyone. I needed to get a new monitor for my video computer. I had a flat screen 24 inch on it. Ron is getting a computer and he needs a monitor so I will give him that one. I wanted something bigger for watching the news videos, YouTube stuff, HBO, Netflix, and movies from Amazon. As the movies Ron and I buy are 4K and even some YouTube channels I follow are 4K I figured it would be better to get a monitor that handles that. However I was a bit surprised at the prices of new 4K monitors of that size. So I looked into the refurbished program Amazon has. It seemed really decent. So I found a refurbished 32 inch 4K monitor with all the features and a stand that was height adjustable, tilt adjustable and even landscape / portrait mode adjustable. Plus I really like the hookup being straight on acceptable rather than built under an opening. I hate having to bend over with a flashlight to hook and unhook the cables. The price was quite reduced at $329.99.

I was worried about the refurbished issue so when it arrived I took pictures of every step of unpacking it and setting it up. I need not have worried. There was not a mark on it, I would have thought it was brand new never out of the original box if it did not have a small sticker on the back saying refurbished.
So am I happy? How does it work? I am thrilled. It is so clear, so much brighter and clearer than the old monitor. I love the larger size. The only draw back is I am running out of space on my desk and the cats do not like having one of the places they sprawl out on the desk reduced. Ron said he is going to build little side wings for the desk. I Jokingly told Ron I liked it so much I thought I should get one like it for my main blogging computer. He about popped a cork. I have a 27 inch monitor that is only three or four years old. He was not in favor of the idea at all. Seemed to think I was rather “pushing my luck” to suggest another new monitor. 😀😃😄😎😎
Here are the pictures I took while unpacking and setting up the monitor. Notice Milo found the box as soon as I set it down. Hugs
