    They don't mention how much it weighed. The 27" Sony we had was slightly over the limit of what I could lift by myself (though I did manage to when no one else was available).

      450 pounds, or about 200 kg

        I had. 50” hitachi diamondscan from this era that was about the same weight. My niece killed the screen with duck hunt

          What's a Diamondscan?

          I had the 40" Sony CRT. It took 3 of us to lift that thing. I bought it just for lightgun games.

            4:3 rear projector 50” tv of the same era. 3 colour tubes to composite and project each colour plane. Just a big, bulky, dumb tv. I only noted it because it had the same mass as the tube tv you had.it took 3 persons to cart it up the 2 flights of steps into my apartment.
