My biggest concern with the clear glass is the visibility of cables (I use a dual monitor system, a scanner, and a printer). How unsightly is it?

I set up my equipment against the wall side of the desk. The computer , printer etc kept all the wires from being visible.

Not unsightly at all really. One of the desk tops I sprayed with a special glass frosting paint (on the underside) I bought at Michaels, since my husband had the same reservation. I never got around to frosting the second one because he put his monitors on it before I could and he's never taken everything off so I could do that side. So, he has one frosted, one not frosted. =) Personally, I would have liked it better left unfrosted - but that's just personal preference. You could also take them to a glass shop and have them sand blasted for a better frosted job if seeing through really bothers you. Not unsightly at all really.

The desk is beautiful, I highly recommend. The cables, however will show as it's completley clear. However, I don't think it will be "unsightly"

With the keyboard and desk chairs, the cables are a bit hidden. Cables are unsightly even with regular desk. Desk gets dusty and rails under glass pain to clean. Still love the desk overall.

yes, you will see some cables . you will have to hide the cable yourself as the kit does not come with any thing to do this. you may be able to hide the cables in the wall if you're skilled at doing this.

The resolution is great. I use it mostly as a computer monitor. It's in my craft room, so it's used as a TV too. Hooked up directly to cable line, so there isn't any kind of interference at all. I love the large size for a computer monitor, but still large enough to watch TV on!

There is some glare buy the picture is so bright that you do not see it. This an amazing computer with no issues. And I had a mac before, this is far better.

The image goes through and will be seen on the otherside. Clear as day. If you're worried about light coming in through the windows at night, it probably won't be too bad. I hung it from a ceiling 20 inches I front of a light and it was still good picture quality on the screen from the other side.

I'm also interested since my monitor will be above eyesight. I wouldn't want the resolution to look darker or wither.

If you fins something please let me know. The contrast of the screen is terrible!!!

Not at all. I was worried about that as well,however I have not had any problem with the clarity of the HD.

Don't know if there's a fix(?). Mine has a very clear picture,better than most I've seen.

It is very clear. I just received mine and am very happy with it. I actually have 2 different video monitors from summer infant and I have been super happy with both of them!

I do not use the window film with my unit and with the exception of direct sunlight shining on the unit, you can see the display with no issues. In fact, even in direct sunlight it is visible but not as bright.

I have a 46" of this model in a brightly lit room. NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. I was worried too. But, one thing for me is that my window is on the side of my tv not directly behind. I,too, viewed it at several different Best Buys and it worried me how much reflection I saw. However, it's been strange to me. It doesn't seem as reflective since I got it in a home environment. One morning, with the blinds open even...I walked by and looked at the tv and had to stop because for a moment it almost looked matte.

I've noticed no such imdedance of clarity. The screen is as crisp as you could ask for. I love mine.

Its not clear like glass, but i do believe its very clear for the price and thickness. Compared to the cheep clear plastic sheeting you can buy at the store, its very clear. But there is still some haze

Clear like glass window. I also bought one from Microcenter and it was as clear and was cheaper too. One from Amazon was better fit. Microcenter one I needed to force board into a bit. But both good

I have mine in my basement and I have a lot of windows and an all glass sliding door walkout on the opposite wall and I don't have any problems with glare. The picture is very bright and screen seems to reduce the glare quite a bit.
