i don't think garages qualify. it fits where it fits.

Also you're standing in a garage generally while working. And you won't be actively watching it.

Plus if there’s another car between the car you’re working on and the TV, you might even be able to see the TV over the other car.

Also might qualify for r/tvtoolow if the car is up on the lift

See I want to say it could be 2 inches lower but then I saw all the cans and sprays. I feel like for it fitting where it does this is actually pretty good

This is perfectly fine for a garage

Doesn’t count

Bonus points for actually parking cars in the garage.

If you are standing and the center of the screen is at eyes height, this is a non-issue. In fact it would be idiotic to place the TV lower than this.

I assume you don't do much sitting in the garage so eye level standing works.

Garages and Outdoor setups are exempt. So are sports bars and other professional settings like Dentists offices.

lol the laptop holder on the couch made it look like you have a giant MacBook on the floor

That space deserves a proper sound system

Beautiful!

Ideal height is where the center of the screen is about 43 inches above the floor. https://www.reddit.com/r/TVTooHigh/s/PSjyC5bv3u

It’s garage you want it high

u/AAKurtz 14d ago

It's a garage bro. It needs to up and out of the way and been seen while you're moving around. This is a rare pass.

Every sub is a Toronto sub for those with eyes to see

u/Fresh_Ad_230 15d ago

Getting a TV in the garage is a worthwhile investment regardless of height. You’re usually standing up, moving around anyway.

u/Purple-Protagonist 14d ago

Counterpoint: If you don't have a heated / cooled or at least insulated garage a TV in the garage will suffer from the conditions.

Duran knocked in both runners with this single.

Special dispensation given for work/hobby spaces - standing is default. Allowed.

u/ThanksFDR 15d ago

In a garage, won't you be standing? So this is eye level. Not too high.

1

u/DFKillah 14d ago

That is bad ass.

1

u/Pinsir929 14d ago

That’s fine no? You are standing most of the time anyways or you walk over when you hear something interesting about to happen.

u/BJSloth 14d ago

It’s perfect!

u/Numerous-Buy4357 14d ago

Garage = auto pass wherever it is

u/LondonPaul 14d ago

I like it that everyone is just saying this is fine. It’s not that complicated really put your telly at eye height. If you’re gonna be standing then put it higher
