July 2024 Winner

Jason H from Destin, Florida has created a game-changing experience for watching TV with the MM815 Motorized Drop Down and Swivel TV Mount. Here is his experience with the TV mount installation. 

“The install was easy and fun! The MM815 motorized drop-down and swivel TV mount has been a game-changer for our marketing agency during Zoom calls and meetings. Its motorized functionality allows us to adjust the TV to the perfect height and angle while on camera, ensuring optimal visibility for everyone in the room. This feature is particularly useful when presenting detailed marketing data to our clients. The mount's sleek design and smooth operation have made our virtual meetings more professional and efficient, impressing our clients with both our presentation and our tech setup. Highly recommended for any business looking to upgrade their meeting room experience.”

Louis S., who hails from Spring Brook Township in Pennsylvania, noted that his experience of finding and installing the MM815 Motorized Drop Down and Swivel TV Mount was, in part, because of strained necks. And thanks to installing the TV mount, Louis doesn’t have to worry about neck pain anymore.

“I found MantelMount after searching for options to lower our TV mounted above our fireplace. The orientation of our family room dictates the TV goes above the mantel and we’re tired of straining our necks. I haven’t been more excited after a TV installation since I got my first large screen. Already thinking of other locations in our house where this could improve our viewing experiences. Delivery was faster than expected. The mount was easy to install & we couldn’t be happier with the MantelMount!”

Hailing from South Jordan, Utah, Erwin N. was our Install of the Month winner in April 2024. Not only do our customers utilize their TV mounts in locations that are more obvious choices — like found in a living room above a fireplace mantel — but also, like Erwin did with the MM540 Enhanced Pull Down TV Mount, they can be used in office-like or den spaces.

“I was looking for an interesting way to update my den and make use of the limited space. But I also wanted to keep with my Batman theme and display the items I have been collecting. MantelMount was perfect for using my laptop and monitors for work with the television up. And using my television in the down position for movies and gaming on my couch. The install was great with the instructions provided. And has been easy to use when changing the position of the television.”

Eric W. from West Clovis, California, in March 2024 was our Install of the Month winner, noting the large transformation that introducing the MM340 Standard Pull Down TV Mount did for the living room. In Eric’s words, the remodel, which included the TV mount solution, was the ideal fit for what was needed.

“We did a remodel on a large portion of our home which included completely moving our fireplace. We have very tall ceilings and I wanted the TV mounted over the new fireplace mantel but was concerned about the viewing angle being too high. I did a bunch of research and came across the mantel mount mounts. This is the perfect solution I was looking for. I get so many compliments on it and others asking where I got it. We are very happy with our purchase!”

Similar to many other customers, Tom H. from Cumming, Georgia, needed a solution to relieving neck pain that was likely caused by looking up at the television from a bad angle. Therefore, Tom ended up choosing the MM815 Motorized, and it turned out to be the right choice.

“I got the MantelMount due to occasional pain in the base of my neck. I cannot say it is due to looking up at the TV, but it seems like all of the ergonomics information I see wants you to have a straight line of sight with your screen. The fireplace at my new house is larger than the previous house and the mantel is much higher - the top of the mantle is at 57" and my wife wanted to keep space on the mantel to put stuff approximately 10-12" on the bottom of TV and ended up at 69". When I lower the MM815, it ends up at 43" above the floor - which is very nice. Only a little higher than my seated sight line. I like to keep things clean in appearance and opted for the RB100 recessed box. This is SOLID. This requires some work, but worth it. I put in blocking to box out the RB100 completely - then brought drywall back to the box. This was a little splurge for me and gets that "Wow" when people come over.”
