Projector TV with screen

[Wilson Hunter]

I’m looking for the best value buy on a ceiling mounted projector plus screen that raises and lowers from the ceiling. Any suggestions?

@Wilson Hunter Are you saying the projector screen will have to be put up in front of the window and that is why it has to be a pull down?  

At home I use pull down screens but  at my cabins I make the screens, but they are permanent not pull down.  I don't do the pull downs because I think they are going to end being replaced due to guests messing them up.  Kids hanging on them, etc..  Not sure if this is an option for you but if it is you can DM me and I provide you with more info on that.

Projectors are like cars to some degree.  Everyone likes their own brands.  And really the right projector depends on the space it is in.  There are a number of factors that go in to that.  How much ambient lighting during the day? How big of a screen?  How far the projector will be?  You will want a sound system such as a sound bar or something as the audio out of the projector will not be enough.  1080p good enough for you or do you want 4k?  4k changes things, like types of cabling, distance of cables, sound system to run through, etc..

Each projector has different throws.  So you kind of have to factor in all that stuff.  I have always used Epson projectors and have been very happy with their performance, longevity, and they support their warranty.
