What's great about it: Picture quality, and overall design.
What's not so great: none at this time.
So far so good. Have been using this monitor for about a month now and I am quite pleased with it. The picture quality is excellent. Have a blu-ray disk drive to watch movies and a TV tuner and watch TV on. I also play games like FSX, Microsoft Flight, Rise of Flight. Everything looks just stunning.
The thinness of the panel and the solid base make it an attractive design. I particurlaly like the controls being right up front on the base making it easier to make adjustments. Also the connectors come straight out the back of the base making it easier for me to make the hookups.
Overall I think this is an excellent monitor.

What's great about it: Sharp bright picture, easy to adjust on setup
What's not so great: Poor vertical viewing angle, and reflective screen surface
The Monitor was easy to install and use. However there are a few drawbacks you should consider before purchasing. The good news is all about the clear, sharp and easy on the eyes picture. The bad news is all about the reflective surface and the narrow VERTICAL viewing angle. If you are going to use this monitor in a room that is bright and has a window behind you, this unit may not be for you. I suggest going to the store and examining this unit with that in mind. The more serious fault, in my opinion, is the narrow vertical viewing angle. Unless the monitor can be positioned near eye level, the color distortion (bleached out colors and false background) is quite noticable. I have an HP 2310e that does not have this vertical distortion.
That said, the unit had no pixel problems and has been working for about one month problem free. I would recommend it to anyone as a reasonably priced monitor as long as the room they are going to use it in doesn't have a window behind the user and they can place it, as I have, in an elevated position on the desk.

What's great about it: Quality, clairty, thinnest
What's not so great: Base/stand
I dread it when I had to come home and work on a school assignments because of the discomfort I felt on my eyes after only 30 mins. I started looking into LEDs and after reading some facts, I knew I needed LEDs monitors to avoid the discomfort. I purchased 2 ea of this type of monitor in early Dec and so fartI’m loving the quality. I sit in front of an LCD monitor and cannot bear the discomfort. The crisp and clarity that this monitor provides is amazing. I like how thin it is, but do not like the stand at all. The stand is too big and takes away the sleekness of the monitor. Also, I don’t like how the cables in back stick out. I wish the cables would connect under so that the actual connectors are hidden and not sticking out. This is an eye sore for me and is the only thing that would make want to look into another monitor. I have 2 more weeks to decide.

The actual images on the monitor were far superior than what I expected. Wife uses the computer for pictures and the results/images are so much brighter and starker. Very happy with product.

What's great about it: Super easy to set up, excellent price and visual quality is simply fantastic!
What's not so great: Nada!
It's like night and day over the Samsung 19" LCD/TV/Speakers monitor it replaced. The set is beautiful in all respects and the 23" size is perfect for my desk. It's all and more than advertised. Very happy I chose this set!

What's great about it: Picture
What's not so great: I wish it had an adjustable hieght
This monitor is very shinny and reflects everything, however, I think that is why it looks so great. I have a plasma TV that is the same way and I love it so much more then my LED TV that is not reflective. Very sturdy and I do love the base with the controls in it.
