There are two types of drop-down TVs. One is made for more professional purposes, such as a TV in a conference room. The other is for personal use, such as an under-cabinet television in the kitchen. The professional type is usually custom-designed, and quite expensive. But there are many choices for the LCD TVs at use in the home.

Coby, Audiovox, Sony and Phillips all make under-counter televisions, and Sanus is known for its mounting brackets.

Generally speaking, a drop-down TV mounts to the under side of a cabinet. It has a small LCD screen, usually under 12 inches. The screen is mounted on a type of swivel that allows it to be folded up out of the way when the space below is needed, and the screen can be tilted easily for the best viewing angle.

Most of the drop-down TV units come with a built-in digital tuner, and it is common for them to have built-in DVD players. They range in price from $100 to $300. The base models come with fewer signal inputs, no DVD, and a smaller screen.
