A great projector, like the light and versatile Epson EpiqVision Mini EF12 laser projector, creates many entertainment possibilities. You could use it in the living room instead of having a television. You could move it around to other rooms or even outdoors. As you read this article and learn about the amazing projector we are giving away in this contest, think about how you would use it in your own life.

Epson projectors are more than just for occasional movie nights

I have owned several projectors over the years. When my kids were young, the projector would move from bedrooms to the basement to the outdoors … depending on who had a sleepover and many other factors. At that time, I had purchased a home office Epson, not knowing much about what my options were (this was before I started working for Best Buy!). Now I would be more selective, opting for the longevity and brightness of a laser projector. However, we had a ton of fun.

Projectors are easy to setup and simple to operate. The one we are giving away in this contest has built-in Android apps: simply connect to Netflix, Prime video, etc or stream from your phone. Epson makes it so easy. I encourage you to read the review and watch the review video that Andy Baryer did recently to learn about this projector so you can start to plan how you would use it.

Why I think everyone should own a projector

If you can have only one home theatre display, then I suggest you seriously consider making it a projector like the Epson we are giving away in this contest. Here are my top 3 reasons:

  1. Fits into the smallest apartment: projectors take up a lot less room than a TV, so even a tiny apartment has room for one.
  2. Creates a big image: you can’t imagine how much better a huge screen is when watching almost anything. Move the projector back a bit for an even bigger image.
  3. Feels like a cinematic experience: for me, watching a movie or sports from a projector feels amazingly immersive. Partly nostalgic, I’m sure, yet it doesn’t get old.

I’m not saying throw out your TV. Most home living rooms, family rooms, even bedrooms are great with a TV. And TVs are less washed out by bright sunlight. However, a projector like the one we are giving away is more versatile: take it anywhere. And no one ever planned an outdoor movie night with their huge 85″ living room TV. With a projector you can easily have a screen that’s well over 100″.

  1. I would used an EPSON projector in either my living room or in the family/games room downstairs.

  2. I just acquired from a friend an 8ft. outdoor projector screen, so outside on the deck in the backyard would be first one (occasional block party out front as well), and in the main family room for second choice.

  3. 2. Two features Andy mentioned I really like is it’s versatility and ideal size at 100”. I always wished I can watch some big screen TV by my bed and when I go sit outside on the balcony, this should allow me to do this easily without buying 2 TVs. The biggest TV I ever had was 70” and I love immersive movies, this will absolutely do it.

  4. Outside in the back yard for movie nights during the summer and the. Downstairs in the basement family room for cozy winter movie marathons.

  5. I would honestly be trying it in all the rooms in our house, and also out in the backyard.

  6. Definitely in the family room where we watch movies together, and also in the basement for large get togethers.

  7. We would use this outdoors for movies and sports. We would also use this in the basement for 100” plus of gaming goodness.

  8. Downstairs family room is our go to movie place and how cool on the back deck or while in the pool!

  9. On the side of my neighbors house once they go to bed or to play that part from The Ring where the girl is crawling out of the TV at the bottom of the basement stairs when someone opens the door to go down.

  10. The Living room wall is perfect for this!
    I’ve also had thoughts of using these on the garage door for movie nights

  11. My family would love this projector in our dungeon…I mean man cave..I mean basement. This would also be lovely in our main living room. Cheers!
