Generally, "12V" appliances tend to cost more and have less quality.
Case in point the 40" Jensen (RV substandard quality) brand TV in the link Itenerant1 provided will cost you $453 and Jensen has a lousy reputation for quality (it is just a name from the 1950s that used to mean quality)..
You can get a 120V Sceptre 40" Class FHD (1080P) for $250, VIZIO D-Series 40” Class Smart TV for $349, Samsung 40" $380 and so on..
The small amount of power used by the inverter is pretty insignificant and really not worth trying to eliminate with a cheaper 12V quality TV..
