A projector is more fiddly than a TV to set up. You need both a smooth, blank light wall and also a place to perch your projector which is just the right distance away from said wall (based on the projector's throw) and at the correct height and ideally centered to the viewing area - and with power within reach.

It's not nearly as difficult as you make it sound.
- sumtechguy 2y agoSetting up a projector is easy. Getting to look good... That can be an interesting trick with many of them.
- ericd 2y agoAs long as you aren't particularly OCD about getting it to look perfect, keystoning, zoom, etc all work together to make it pretty flexible. We throw it on a variety of walls around the house (helps that white is the default wall color for home sales nowadays).
- jamiek88 2y agoHave you looked into short throw projectors? Some of those are very noob friendly and positioning is no longer an issue. Still an enthusiasts device though really and your point stands I just found those short throw devices quite interesting.
