It's a good monitor, one of a number of Acer monitors I have purchased. Unfortunately this one came with a bad pixel out of the box, toward left of center. Not something you really notice most of time in use unless something dark is in that location. Not worth bothering with a return. Still, disappointing.

graphics are not as good as i thought but for 70$ it’s not bad

One of my dual monitors failed and this same model number Acer monitor looks the same but mounting points in the back are higher and now one is a full inch higher than the other. My workstation is eskewed.

I have had this monitor less than a year and it is already not working properly. I called to use the warranty, and I have to pay for shipping for repairs, and be out of a monitor (which I use for work) for at least a week. I am not very impressed.Update, I am changing my review to four stars because monitor is fine, it was just my laptop. However, I am still annoyed with my experience with the warranty and hope that I never actually have to use it.

The photos for the Acer KC242Y says it is Height Adjustable but it is NOT!

Works for intended purpose but if you want audio I highly recommend that you'll have to get a VGA to HDMI Adapter Converter with Audio which is cheap, if you search it up you'll find multiple different types. So this monitor is very convenient if you want a small work station. The quality is minimal but work exactly for what I need, as well as planning for the future if one wants to add on it faily easy to switch you setup. While making my workspace the only inconvenience I ran into for such a cheap set up was when converting, the audio becomes a bit low but that's easy to fix with quality speakers. I recommend two speakers for the sound quality to be as pristine as possible, if not another option would be to get a hdmi splitter instead that also works a charm and that was you will not need a speaker and can just play directly from your console or computer. If you have any trouble try searching up a YouTube video to help you out with whatever problems you have. The methods I used were much more round about but if your connecting directly to a laptop there should not be any problems at hand. Ohh and another thing that's not as important the menu is not very convenient but for all of the video options they work well enough for any console, pictures and or movies to have decently good quality without having to personally adjust it too much. There are also presets for the set up your going for. All in all the monitor is quality for its low budget and not too much needs to be done if one is going for a low minimalistic build, either for your kids or just for personal enjoyment.

the stand isn’t connected to the monitor so it falls off very easily. but if you never touch it it’s okay. it came with weird cords that my pc didn’t have a slot for but an hdmi cord worked fine to connect. it is the perfect size though, very cute.

It's got a great color and brightness to it. I also love the thin bezel. Only down side is it came with visible horizontal lines in the top portion of the screen.
