They go above and beyond the call of duty, and they are very timely. Thay have a lot of patience.

Super disappointed... we have used them before and were very happy. The quality is not the same. They came out today to mount a Samsung frame TV. The person said to make it easier he would need to drill some holes to help hide the wires. He asked if we had paint and said he could patch it. Next thing you know we have a 5"x5" hole in our fireplace along with holes in another wall. The patch was left unfinished. He said he had a paint brush initially and then later said he didn't. Pretty sure he was using a paper towel. Then told me I should paint it in an hour. Called their office and Nikki told me their team doesn't do paint or patching...ok. Why say you can? She couldn't tell me when someone would be back out and never called me back. So we have a mounted tv but now we need a professional painter to come fix the botched patch. Not to mention I spent 30 mins cleaning up after they left. read more

Original post from May 30, 2020 when project was done..."I just finished working with Man Cave America for the 3rd time in the past year doing long wanted A/V upgrades. MCA always do top-notch work and make everything look better than I could ever imagine. During this SIP, they created a beautiful A/V installation in our garage to create a 2nd family gaming space. They also wore PPE and took appropriate social distancing precautions. I hope I have another project in the future so I can work with them again!" read more

Do not hesitate. Full stop. Henry and his crew (shout out Ramon!) packed all my gear, set it up in a new house, and attended to everything. I was super picky and he and his crew accommodated everything and the quote was the exact price I was charged. They answered all my dumb questions, explained all the options, and came back TWICE to tweak things I wanted. One of the best customer experiences I've had. Don't hesitate to hire these guys. read more

I used mancave 2 years ago as part of a large backyard remodel to install outdoor speakers. Well the speakers stopped working today, right before we were supposed to have an outdoor party. I called and Mauricio patiently troubleshot the issue and saved the day. Thank you Mauricio! read more

Man Cave They are the pros. If you want it done right, use them- they are precision, the A team. This review is long overdue, but Mancave was highly recommended, and they deserve all the positive accolades. They were absolutely amazing from start to finish. They upgraded and simplified my home by outfitting it with a robust internet system, installing three TVs, speakers, a sound system, & Ring cameras. From the moment they arrived for the estimate, they had an intuitive sense of what I needed, did not try to oversell me on unnecessary items, and they returned to review all the bid and details with me. They did an outstanding job with the installation. They came back to ensure everything was right, and I am absolutely thrilled with what they did ! They also walked me through everything to help me understand and got rid of all my old equipment. I got an estimate from a larger retail chain. They were late for the estimate appointment, failed to show up for the meeting to walk through the estimate, their bid was not detailed, and it was actually higher than Man Cave's. Do not hesitate to use Man Cave - you will be delighted with the results. You can trust this company; they are the best. read more

Came on time and evaluated project. Couldn't do project because of some issues which interrupted the project.

GREAT phone call with Mauricio. Will be setting up an appointment for a site visit and assessment. Howard read more

Had Hameed mount two TVs for me so far. Always on time, always professional, always clean, would recommend.

I recently acquired an unusual stone sculpture that I wanted to wall mount and use lights to highlight. It was a pretty unique request: a 50lb stone donut that I wanted to wall mount securely but WITHOUT actually attaching anything to the stone itself. I could not be more pleased with the result. The guys who mounted the piece were extremely careful and precise. The plan was creative and thoughtful. Most importantly, I could not be more happy with the result. It's beautiful, secure and the art is in pristine condition. This was a unique job and Man Cave America handled it extremely well. I would confidently recommend them and will confidently return to them again if I ever want to do any other wall mounting that requires careful thought! read more

Ramon mounted a TV for me recently...he did a great job! On time, clean work and super friendly...couldn't ask for a better experience! Looking forward to working on more projects together! read more

Was really excited about this company and spent some time talking to Niki on the phone about my situation. It took quite a while to get a quote from them - I had to follow up after a week. After that we went back-and-forth as I had questions about pricing, providers, etc. This is a multi thousand dollar project so I wanted to make sure to be clear on everything. After a while, I just stopped hearing back from them, and I last reached out to ask them if they were interested in this project and I got no reply. Next! read more

They first quote $225 then suddenly up to $388. I repeatedly emailed and called them to find out what was different, no one ever got back to me. read more

All communication (including follow-ups) was very prompt and professional, and I really appreciated how detailed the quote was for the services I requested. While I ultimately did not go with MCA for my project, my experience with them was extremely positive and I would consider them again in the future. read more

BEST CALL I EVER MADE!! I feel so dumb. I previously gave this company a 1 star review but really, I think it was me, the customer, who deserves 1 star for my poor communication of what I was dissatisfied with. I wasn't happy with the initial work but didn't communicate specifically what the problem was. Once I did, the staff and owner immediately contacted me and within days, came back to my house and fixed my installation exactly to how I wanted. They did such a great job and were so professional, neat and fast! Man Cave America is really the BEST place to handle your AV needs! Thanks guys!!! Ivan and Issac are experts in their field, Scott does customer service from the office and made me feel like family! Henry the owner is amazing and truly cares about the customers experience. Highly recommend!!! read more

After having multiple opportunities to work with these guys, over a few years now running, it's difficult to focus where the stars should be directed...and how many i can give. To start at the top...If you can believe it, even the owner himself is willing to dedicate his time to making sure your project/install work gets done...whether he's in town or even literally on a plane no less (proven in my 1st job with them!) I wasn't a friend, or relative...i had NO ties to him, hadn't even met him...and here he was calling me himself to make sure i had the support i needed.....I'd have to give 5 Stars for that alone! Then there's the front desk...the level of coordination, persistance, kindness and professionalism in making sure your job gets scheduled and the resources confirmed is unbelievable (Can't THANK YOU enough Niki!!). Whether i call with a job that requires coordination with a construction team or a job that gives her a fraction of a single day to gather a team for a job...it gets done with time to spare! That level of coordination/organization is frankly ridiculous.....5 stars more for the front desk alone! Then there's the actual physical install work....again, professionalism, technical expertise, knowledge of electrical wiring AND carpentry, electronics experience, television industry and even an extensive knowledge of new TV's and emerging technologies in the market (All YOU Izaac!!). Their team will even go and PICK UP THE UNIT FOR YOU from the store!! Quick and precise work EVERYtime! Moving of furniture needed....Done! Tricky mounting job...Done! Coordinate with electricians, painters, woodworkers...piece of cake! Even offered to let me call him after the job was done in case i wanted to DIY any changes or mods to the setup after the fact! 5 MORE stars for this amazing lead guy i was lucky enough to get AGAIN, and 5 for his team as well (i saw you Hector!)...each of them more than competent, skilled technicians themselves! You can see from the 20 stars i've racked up here myself AND other 5 star ratings for these guys here, i'm not making this up! If you want a FANTASTIC job done, and i mean where you just don't even have to worry about the quality of any aspect of the job AT ALL, call for the Man Cave Team! They are the Gospel TRUTH in this space! read more

I had a great experience with having an in-home estimate. I decided not to do the project at all, but I was impressed with the professionalism, knowledge of all things A/V, great communication, and friendliness. read more

This is the second major project that Man Cave has done for me. Hands down the best customer service, advice, and execution I've seen. Henry and his crew worked with my contractor on a remodel to have a surround sound system built with an integrated tv mount. The project from start to finish was seamless. He also designed an outdoor patio speaker system for me as well. It's not so much that the job was well done. But when the TV mount became misaligned a few months later, Henry's crew came out quickly to fix it. Update - eight months after the project, when my Denon receiver appears to have blow an circuit, Henry sent a tech out the next day to replace my receiver at no charge. He took care of the warranty and recalibrated my system. Excellent customer service, highly recommend. read more

Thomas was prompt, cheerful, fast, and thorough. He handled a challenging interaction really well. He also took the time to help set up the TV service, wore boot covers, cleaned up the boxes, all with kindness. Thank you, Thomas and Man Cave! read more

Did a great job. They were responsive and flexible. Our family *loves* the new system, which included projector/home theater, built-in surround sound, home networking, and outdoor speaker system. We get a lot of compliments on the quality of sound in the garden. We're lucky to have these guys as a local resource! read more

I have two home theater systems. For the primary one in the living room, I wanted to install four height speakers for Dolby Atmos/DTS X. I'd purchased some speakers in advance that matched my setup. In my bedroom, I have a smaller setup, and wanted to mount the TV on the wall, with bookshelf speakers I purchased in advance mounted on the wall on either side of the TV. I hired Man Cave America for help with both tasks. On the first trip out, they installed things just as I wanted in the bedroom. My partner and I are quite happy with the results. The system looks and sounds great. They said that the speakers I'd purchased for the living room were not ideal for height installations and talked about their past experience trying to use the specific ones I had. I decided to return them, and instead Man Cave America ordered a set of in-ceiling speakers to be installed on a separate visit. At the second visit, the same crew returned and installed the in-ceiling speakers in the living room. The results look way better than if we'd used the speakers I originally picked out. They also improved the cable management for my rear surround speakers but running the speaker wire through the wall, so I no longer have wires running along the outer edge of the floor and in front of the fireplace. This will make it easier to clean the area, and it looks much nicer, to boot! For both visits, the crew was very nice, easy to communicate with, and did great work that my partner and I are very happy with. I really appreciated that they provided their knowledge and insight about a good height speaker setup, rather than just doing what I asked for initially, which would've left me with worse results! The company was also very easy to communicate with by email. Throughout the process, I talked to several different people by email and for a video conference consultation. I found them to be very responsive and friendly. There were a few scheduling hiccups along the way, but I wasn't in a rush to get the job done, so this wasn't a big deal for me. Prompt communication is all I could really ask for when last minute changes are needed. If I have future home theater needs, I won't hesitate to hire Man Cave America again. read more

We got a HUGE wall TV for Christmas and Thomas mounted it perfectly for us at a very reasonable rate. He was extremely fastidious about getting it in the right place and doing as little as possible to the apartment wall, explaining all his choices in the process. I would hire them again in a heartbeat to fit out our media space. read more

Found Man Cave America as a recommended installer from Mantel Mount, and I'm glad we went through with them! Mauricio was very patient and thorough on the phone - naturally he wanted to provide and prepare a set up that was as clean, good looking, and future-proof as possible, but at my resistance to the costs he meticulously brainstormed the various cost-saving options with me, and we arrived at a very happy middle-ground (recessed mount instead of on-wall mount, but with on-wall wiring instead of in-wall). He also honored the promotions advertised directly on the Mantel Mount website, which I really appreciated. The work done by the technicians was smooth and they were quick to point out and work around unexpected issues (studs not being where they should). The original set-up didn't have the clearance to swivel as much as we wanted, and Mauricio again was very attentive to the issue and my suggestions, and sent out technicians ASAP to make the fixes (added spacers between the TV and frame to add clearance to the fireplace), and we are now very happy with the results. The hourly rate might seem high at first glance, but the complicated setup and their obvious thorough experience justifies it to make sure everything operates smoothly and is installed safely. Thanks Man Cave America! read more

Mauricio and Man Cave delivered again. It is comforting to know that the company remains available and willing to service their work. We are very pleased with the installation of our new tv and how they integrated it into our existing entertainment sound system. read more

An excellent experience from start to finish. I needed a large tv mounted and wanted all of the cords hidden. Given the layout of my space and the placement of my electrical outlets this was a bit of a complicated job. After getting estimates from a few different places I decided on Man Cave America due to their great reviews. Also, several other companies told me they wouldn't be able to hide the wires due to the above mentioned reasons regarding my space. Pros: Excellent customer service, fast communication, fair pricing, great staff. Cons: NONE! Tips: Sandy and Shaun did my install. Both were exceptionally kind, worked fast and left my space very clean. They checked in with me every step of the way to let me know what was going on and and to make sure I was fully satisfied with everything before moving forward. read more

I wanted Samsung Frame TV so I could not only have great TV but a digital art frame work that I could change anytime. I hired Man Cave America to come get the job done right. They also let me buy the TV through THEM so I could get a discount and brought it over, opened box, installed, cleaned everything. I didnt have to do a thing! Two guys came and they were very thorough making sure to keep area clean and damage free with a ton of rugs and etc. They installed it perfectly so all wires are behind the wall so it actually looks like a picture frame. Its amazing. I love the TV esp for its picture frame feature, its super cool it can look like a photo painting on wall but its actually digital and Man Cave America made it super perfect installation. I think their the best and give very fair prices, highly recommend! read more

Although Man Cave America was out of my price range. I understand the cost of operations as the one who ultimately does our business books. They took the time to respond and refer me to a someone who may be in my price range. I have to say if you want value and good workmanship please give Man Cave America your business. When I move and circumstances change they will be my go to! read more

Man Cave America are true professionals! From the time I inquired via Yelp, they responded quickly, gave me a quote based on the photos I sent over, we did payment immediately and then they scheduled us for installation. We also bought the Samsung 55 inch TV from them. David and Sergio are rock stars. They worked quickly, they cleaned up after themselves and the TV was installed perfectly. This was for my church- Authentic Church. I will personally utilize your services again and this time from my home. read more

Unbelievable service. Mauricio is a true partner and Isaac was efficient, professional and knowledgeable.

We're big fans and they are wonderfully responsive. read more

I had a great experience with MCA mounting my TV in my last apartment, so I contacted them again to hook up TVs in our current home. Communicating with MCA was easy and fast, and they quickly got me a written quote. After agreeing on terms, we were off to the races. Two team members showed up. They were polite, on time, hard working, and extremely knowledgeable. Hanging the TVs was tricky given the age of our home and some ...irregular decisions by contractors decades and decades ago. Nonplussed, the guys figured it out. They took extra care to ensure the TV was mounted safely and securely, which I especially appreciated since we have young kids at home and the last thing I need is for one of them to wear the television like a hat. Great job, Man Cave America. Thanks again! read more

I couldn't be more pleased with the results. I highly recommend them! read more
