  1. Shipping Information for Our Canadian Customers

    Hi everyone!  Recently we have received quite a few inquiries from our friendly neighbors up north asking us the following questions:

    1.)    Do you ship to Canada?

    2.)    If so, what is the cost of shipping?

    3.)    Are duty and brokerage fees included?

    4.)    How long does it take to deliver my TV lift cabinet?

    I must confess, while the information can be located on our site, it is not the easiest to find.  I have decided to share our Canadian Shipping Policy with you all here.

    Yes, we do ship to Canada.  However, shipping is not free.  If you live within 50 miles of these cities listed below you will be charged $499 extra during check out for TV lift cabinets and $250 for the lift machines.

  5. Flat Panel TV Reviews Made Easy!

    Are you in the market to replace your current flat panel TV? Do you have to purchase a TV for your TV lift cabinet? CNET offers a great resource for consumers looking to purchase flat panel TVs. Their posted reviews and feature articles are detailed and really break down the pros, cons, special features and what you’re getting for your money.

There are full articles about Samsung and Panasonic’s new line up and seemingly endless reviews for any model you may be considering for your home.

  7. How Does 3D Work?

    3D ImageYou may have gone to the movie theater in the last two years to watch Avatar in 3-D, or perhaps you waited until it came out in Blu-ray to watch it at home in front of your TV lift cabinet. Regardless, you likely think that 3-D technologies are cool and will clearly be part of the entertainment industry’s future. But have you ever wondered how 3-D works? We uncovered some of the secrets of 3-D technology and we would like to share them.

    Have you ever held up a pencil or finger and looked at it with one eye closed, then the other one closed? You’ll see that the image is the same, but it has a different perspective. This is “stereoscopy,” and it’s how the eyes and brain work together to create an impression of a third dimension. Our eyes are roughly 50 mm to 75 mm apart, and each eye takes in a different perspective, triggering the brain to do some crazy geometry to make up for the disparity between both images. It is this disparity that creates “3-D”.

    So when we use technology to replicate
