Hello, I've tried installing a CabiTV in my kitchen however I always find it accumulating oil and dirt even though I've installed it far from my oven. Anyone else who's having the same problem?

I just set my iPad on live TV so no problem for me. I didn’t get a TV installed in kitchen for that reason.

I have an open concept house so when I'm working on my island in the kitchen I'm watching the tv in our great room! No fuss, no muss. Woman Happy

I have a TV in my small kitchen; it has an antenna, not cable.  I haven't found that it accumulates dust and oil, but I don't do much cooking.

I have a small tv tucked into a corner on my counter, right near my stove, and I don't have trouble with it getting greasy or extra dirty. I don't fry much though either, so that might have a lot to do with it. 

 

I tend to pull it out and wipe it down every week, and there is a lot of dust that accumulates behind it.

Hmm probably. I fry a lot of stuff in the kitchen. Guess i just have to move my kitchen TV.

We had a tv on top of the fridge in our last house and had no problems with that, but then we hardly ever fry anything, so I think that is a big factor.

 

Also, we don't smoke, and smoke causes a lot of buildup in a house.
