        My partner is a tv on the fireplace mantel viewed from a distance kind of guy. I’m a tv at or near eye level while sitting on the couch and viewed from a responsibly close distance kind of guy.

        So we compromised, and placed the tv on the fireplace mantel all the way across the room from the couch.

        I guess I’d fit in quite well in a tvtoohigh community.

      False. Any good lounge should have you reclined and looking naturally towards the joint between the wall and ceiling. Having a tv that is at eye line while you are sitting vertically is not comfortable when you are lounging. You end up crooking your neck down.

      It’s apples and oranges for how you prefer to lounge, but I hate TVs placed even with eye-level while I’m standing if I am in a legit lounge. I recognize that other people like to be more vertical while they sit, as I’ve had this argument with a close friend… but for me, the lounge is king.
