How Touchstone TV Lift Mechanisms Compare to Competitor Brands

The Touchstone Home Products customer service team often gets calls from shoppers who want to know how Touchstone Whisper Lift II TV Lifts compare to other TV lifts on the market. Based on feedback from customers, AV integrators and other professionals, here is a side-by-side comparison of the Touchstone Whisper Lift II Pro Advanced Swivel TV Lift versus a similar model from another brand.

Outperforms at a Lower Price

For AV integrators, contractors and hobbyists, the price of the TV lift can make or break a project budget. We get a lot of calls from professionals who are amazed at how the Whisper Lift II TV lifts outperform more expensive TV lifts. The Whisper Lift II Advanced Swivel Pro offers the same advanced features, including IR remote repeater, 12-volt trigger support, programmable height memory and quiet operation, for under $1000 – a substantial savings to competitors’ models offered at twice the price.

The Touchstone Whisper Lift II Pro Advanced Swivel TV Lift offers more features at a lower price, compared to competitors.

Durable, Reliable and Quiet

Customers tell us our TV lift quality is better too. All Whisper Lift II TV lift mechanisms feature a single piston actuator in an enclosed system for virtually zero wear and tear. The steel exterior casing provides added protection for the internal parts. The Whisper Lift II TV lifts are just as durable, reliable and quiet as the higher priced competitors.

Customer Bob shares, “Speaking as an engineer with more than 40 years experience, I am very impressed with the quality of your product (the rugged design, well made parts, perfect paint finish, elegance of electrical design and, of course, your customer service). Congratulations on making this capable lift at such a reasonable price.”

Assembly Time


The Touchstone Whisper Lift II TV Lift takes less than 10 minutes to assemble.
No mechanism assembly required. Simply attach the
TV mounting brackets and connect the wires. 
Time is money for AV professionals and builders. The fully assembled Whisper Lift II TV lift mechanism saves valuable installation time. Many shoppers choose the Whisper Lift II because it’s ready to go out of the box; while other brands require complicated, multi-step assembly, adding hours to the project.

With the Touchstone TV lift, simply unpack the box, attach the TV brackets and connect the wires. Pre-drilled brackets on the top and base of the Touchstone Whisper Lift II make it easy to attach the lift to a cabinet, floor or ceiling in minutes.

One of the most popular features of the Whisper Lift II is the ease of integration into any project. The same lift can be used in a drop down TV or pop up TV application from the ceiling, floor, cabinet or other enclosure.
