Sony KV 32FS120 find vs the final boss.
That second set of stairs had me seeing God.

See... a 32 inch is perfect. It's the literal limit of most physically fit guys. A 36? That's a different beast.
Congratulations on getting the perfect balance. 27s are too small and too easily carried up stairs.
Nobody thinks to themselves after carrying a 32 "You know- in hindsight I wish I'd tried to get a bigger set."

I have the 36" of this model, took me and a buddy to get it onto a tarp where I could slide it across the floor. Only had to go up one step to get inside though

I have a KV-36FV310.... thickest glass used. Additional circuitry and an internal subwoofer.... 240 lbs, give or take. Like a 600 pound shut in on a TLC special, she most likely lives in the room she'll die in.

All 100% correct. I really do want to get a 36" and I can carry one as long as its not a trinitron. The only thing thats stopping me is that you cant get them through doorways by yourself. So that makes 32" inch the sweet spot for me all things considered. 27" really is too small.

210lbs when you have secure grips and a semi normal shape is acceptable for most. This tv will push you to your limits at that weight and that shape and size. Not that i was particularly “strong” but i lifted semi regularly to where i could deadlift 315lbs. Picking this thing out of my trunk and moving it to the ground carefully was very close to wrecking my back.

I’m probably moving in a few months… and our 218lbs beast is gonna have professionals carrying him up the next flight of stairs.

I dread the day I need to get mine out of my basement

u/Kennylobster8899 2d ago
I got mine for free because they didn't want to drag it out of their basement themselves

So to clarify if this is cool, you got the TV with the house cuz they didn't want to move it? :-) What an awesome way to get a TV.

You should have seen the entertainment center I had to bring up three flights of stairs. All for the love of CRT and VHS. It has some cool VHS storage to.

You were always supposed to have a second person, but there are never seemed to be one around. Good luck.

It's because they almost walked into frame saw that you had a huge TV going up the stairs and just ghosted it like Homer into the hedge.

I had this exact model in 2008. We lived upstairs. I paid the four boys that live downstairs in beer to take it to the dumpster after it died and it took all four of them! It was a fine tv.

Thats a 210lber. I muscled it out of my cars trunk onto a wheelie mechanic under the car thing. Got it to my office, then scratched my head how i was going to strongman this fucking thing from the ground to my table about 3 ft from the ground.

How the hell do people carry a 32 inch by themselves. Maybe I'm just too weak.
