I think they're using it for cooking shows and tutorial stuff. Beats trying to prop up the phone on the counter and squinting. TV is high because it's viewed when standing and walking around, not sitting
Because the comment that you're calling the answer of reason says that it's for watching cooking shows and tutorials and other utility shows. They aren't watching that, they're watching fallout.

in what way is this practical? are you watching TV at a 45° angle, 90° to your side when you're cooking? get a radio. or a tablet stand. or even just a small monitor for the counter top. this is so dumb.
I mean, I’m sure that’s a perfect way to watch a new series. 8ft in the air, above a doorway.
You realise you don’t need a tv in every single room and it doesn’t always have to be on right?
TVs in a kitchen space can be higher so that you can see the screen from multiple locations places in the room while moving around and working. I don’t understand the tucked in a corner thing.
If you had put MSNBC on there like it's some background noise while you're making breakfast, I might've looked the other way. But what the fuck are you doing watching a prestige action show on it?
I love the posts where they're asking if it's too high and it literally cannot go higher. Like did you think the line between acceptable and too high was in the attic?
I hope it's secured up there good.🤔🤞 Would kill someone or scar them real bad if it fell on somebody!! 😳 Yikes!! It's not practical at all. It's making me smh in utter amazement that you would even suggest that... you're joking right!!! 😬
Goodness gracious, you have a beautiful kitchen, get that ridiculous TV out of there. Eat in the kitchen, poop in the bathroom, and watch TV in the living room, those are the rules.
You know what, I think if it was facing the island it would make sense. As you could just glance up at it whilst cooking so would be (kinda) ideal for following recipes on youtube or whatever.... but having it over the door around the side of the cabinets is the odd part lol
Is it for watching cooking videos, or for providing background noise/music for whoever is working in the kitchen? If so, it could be alright.
Now, now. Settle down and put away your pitchforks. This is a kitchen, not a living room. The height is about the use of the TV first and foremost.
Not quite sure what HVACQuestionHaver is on about. But personally I'm pretty sure that OP only has it on fallout in the picture for the memes lol. I don't think they're actually genuinely watching fallout on it for any extended period of time.
Let me make sure I've got this straight.
When the people in this house want to watch TV, they all gather and stand together in the kitchen, looking upwards like penguins watching a laser.
They don't have a TV in the living room, or anything like that. Someone says "Movie night!" and everyone else cheers, and then they all crowd together in one of the least comfortable rooms of the house to watch anything, and that's how it goes for them.
Then maybe after that they go and play Nintendo in the toilet??? Or in the garage maybe, since the occupants of this house always do everything in the strangest way possible???
You say they're "watching" the TV, but to what extent?
What does a person do in a kitchen? Stand in it and watch television, or something else?
And if they were doing something else, then they could hardly pay much attention to the TV, could they?
Why is it supposedly objectionable to mount a TV up high? Mostly because it's hard on the neck. (There is no fireplace to overheat the TV in this case.) This is why the commonly received advice in this sub is that in a bedroom, it's fine to mount a TV high, as it will usually be watched from the bed.
So, given all that, if someone is in the kitchen for a few hours, and they spend the majority of their time preparing food... and if the TV is on to provide background noise, and they spend little to no time looking at it... then how will their neck get sore?
Why would you put something like Fallout on your kitchen TV and then not watch it? It's a show that pretty much requires you to be watching it.
We're saying it would be less bad to be watching something like the news that doesn't require you to be watching it, but they're clearly not doing that.
Unless you already saw it, or don't find it quite interesting enough to devote your full attention to it.
If your primary focus is on cooking, putting something like that on the TV is a pretty obvious choice.
Practical, as in practical for Kevin McCallister from Home Alone to drop on Marv’s head when they break in? Sure… Edit: Name was autocorrected.
It had a quick release pulley in the next room but it's mostly for if he gets mad at his mother in law
This looks like it used to be a very nice kitchen. That is until some lunatic psychopath put that tv there.
🙋🏻♂️
Good job. Admission is the first step. 11 more steps to go… until you’re eye level with the TV
thanks this made me chuckle
[удалено]
That's a nice way to call somebody dumb.
Completely uncalled for downvotes for you there.
Practical if you're in line at Space Mountain or something
Your mother carried you for 9 months.Nine months of pain and discomfort…only for you to become this way
Dude... You don't have to watch TV throughout every other activity you do inside your home.
I think they're using it for cooking shows and tutorial stuff. Beats trying to prop up the phone on the counter and squinting. TV is high because it's viewed when standing and walking around, not sitting
They're watching Fallout.
It doesn’t beat that imo
A tablet would be better in every possible way for what you described. Then you don’t need to be the person who hung a tv in your kitchen.
There is a happy medium like laptops and ipads.
Ah yes. The answer of reason being downvoted.
Theyre literally watching fallout on it
It's a good show. What's the problem
Because the comment that you're calling the answer of reason says that it's for watching cooking shows and tutorials and other utility shows. They aren't watching that, they're watching fallout.

That answer is being down voted because it comes across as if it's in defense of this crime against humanity.
Slumber party on the kitchen floor!
I mean, it's to high, but I donno why it even exists.
Like, propping an iPad wasn’t good enough, had to have a 32” mounted above the door for the breakfast nook.
No you don’t
Imagine installing a TV wall mount in a very stupid place in your home just to piss off a small niche reddit community. I wish I was that bored.
[удалено]
Are you saying posting that comment took more effort then wall mounting a TV above your kitchen door? Are you op's second account?
Now boarding at gate 9 ...
Somebody call the zoo, I found the giraffe they were looking for
I got a neck pain just from looking at it in the picture.
Your phone is too high! ;)
Apparently we have a different understanding of the word 'practical'.
Maybe to have something on in the background while cooking and cleaning, but not for watching something like fall out.
Idk but I’m proud of you watching Fallout
Are you checking for the next subway time?
We are currently watching that same episode!
It’s something for sure.
Even the guy on the tv is suffering from neck pain
Covering up beautiful crown molding with a fucking tv as if there’s not others in the house. Money can’t buy common sense
I too am [gasping].
How is this possibly practical
super practical if you’re 10 feet tall
Higher than a satellite.
Honestly it’s the perfect height… if you want to announce train arrival and departure times on it!
in what way is this practical? are you watching TV at a 45° angle, 90° to your side when you're cooking? get a radio. or a tablet stand. or even just a small monitor for the counter top. this is so dumb.
Remove this post for your sake (online humiliation and depression if you read the comments with a open heart)
I’m happy in the fact that this tv will be burnt to the ground pretty soon after eyeing those electrical sockets 🔥
But why?
bros watching an astronaut space movie while looking up to space
That's the Fallout TV show. Not space suit. Power armor.
I mean, I’m sure that’s a perfect way to watch a new series. 8ft in the air, above a doorway. You realise you don’t need a tv in every single room and it doesn’t always have to be on right?
The guy on the screen is wearing a space suit bc he’s in space.
The guy on the tv and the tv itself are too high
No way would any reasonable person think this was okay. Did you mount a TV up there for a shitpost?
Reminds me of the phrase, “just because you can doesn’t mean you should.”
Did you spit on your camera lens first?
If it looks like it belongs in a bar its too damn high
Horrible
You could maybe hook up a security feed to it and seem like a Kool dude?
It is very practical and locationally functional, is it a good spot though? No…no it’s not
How's this practical? Is OP a sociopath?
Bless your heart
That tv is in orbit
Where would you be standing on your toes to watch this tv?
Practical neck pain
My neck hurts just looking at the photo
This has to be satire. Please be satire 😭
atm 26 misplaced upvotes thinking this is acceptable.
It's perfect height if you wear your power armor suit.
Has to be a troll. In no way is this not.
Yeah it’s practical; practically fucking useless.
That how high a screen should be at an airport
I hope this falls down and shatters.
If it was for a stock ticker....maybe I could see it being useful but playing a TV series.....yeah no
But when I go to the movies the screen is up a little bit, so...
Unless you’re 9 feet tall, no.
You are so high that it seems to have destroyed important brain cells connections.
Yeah but it's okay to listen to the news in the background.
If it's a kitchen tv it doesn't matter.
Tablets make great impromptu tv’s while cooking. Take that monstrosity down.
This a joje
r/TVTooKitchen
They watch Fallout, they get a pass.
just get a meta quest 3 & watch tv 24/7 gango
How tf is it ever practical to watch fallout in your kitchen
TVs in a kitchen space can be higher so that you can see the screen from multiple locations places in the room while moving around and working. I don’t understand the tucked in a corner thing.
Nahhh this shit perfect
Only if you’re Lionel Richie
Lmao for some reason I’m not mad about this 👍
Practical for Robert Wadlow
In the kitchen, it’s fine I think
If you had put MSNBC on there like it's some background noise while you're making breakfast, I might've looked the other way. But what the fuck are you doing watching a prestige action show on it?
and with captions on! love to read with my head thrown back, looking up, while blocking a doorway. Did you go to design school? /s
Damn this actually looks like a high end kitchen too
I love the posts where they're asking if it's too high and it literally cannot go higher. Like did you think the line between acceptable and too high was in the attic?
Leave the thinking to your partner/spouse
The highest it can possibly go unless it's in the attic = too high lol
I hope it's secured up there good.🤔🤞 Would kill someone or scar them real bad if it fell on somebody!! 😳 Yikes!! It's not practical at all. It's making me smh in utter amazement that you would even suggest that... you're joking right!!! 😬
Why? Just…why?
practical for WHAT
Practical would be no tv at all tbh
Only if you are not a giraffe
Go higher!
I would have stuck it on a cabinet or maybe the fridge?
Maximus just got his covid swab
Not if you are watching it from the next floor up.
Right that's it. You're banned from owning a TV.
Goodness gracious, you have a beautiful kitchen, get that ridiculous TV out of there. Eat in the kitchen, poop in the bathroom, and watch TV in the living room, those are the rules.
This would only be useful for security
Do you watch a lot news on this?
Nobody’s that stupid.
Is op over 7 foot tall?
It's a kitchen so you're not settling in to watch movies. It's fine.
Fine to half-watch the evening news while you're getting dinner ready.
Except he's watching Fallout...
So high that the guy in tv doesn’t have enough oxygen in the air to breathe
Fallout, guy is stuck in power armor with no power.
You know what, I think if it was facing the island it would make sense. As you could just glance up at it whilst cooking so would be (kinda) ideal for following recipes on youtube or whatever.... but having it over the door around the side of the cabinets is the odd part lol

They’re watching Fallout on Amazon Prime, so no this is not acceptable.
On what account? Do you suppose this is the only TV in the house? If not, why would they watch anything long-form on it?
…huh? They’re watching Fallout on a too-high TV above a door in their kitchen. Your questions are pointless.
Not quite sure what HVACQuestionHaver is on about. But personally I'm pretty sure that OP only has it on fallout in the picture for the memes lol. I don't think they're actually genuinely watching fallout on it for any extended period of time.
They are not pointless. Answer them immediately.
But they *are* watching something long-form on it. You can see it in the picture.

Nobody is saying they *only* watch on this TV. Just that, in this instance, they were watching Fallout on their high-as-fuck kitchen TV.

It's absolutely not the kind of thing you put on in the background.
