TL;DR
HIDEit's Shield2 is the steel wall mount specifically designed for the NVIDIA Shield TV Pro (the 2019+ pill-shaped model). Mounts the streaming device behind a wall-mounted TV, between cabinets, or hidden in any low-profile spot — keeping the device cool and accessible without cluttering the AV setup. American-made black powder-coated steel. At budget pricing, it's the right accessory for anyone running an NVIDIA Shield Pro on a wall-mounted TV setup.
Why It Matters
Wall-mounted TV setups create a real hardware-hiding problem. NVIDIA Shield TV Pro is the high-end Android TV streamer many home theaters use, but the device itself isn't designed to be invisible. Without a proper mount, it sits awkwardly on a shelf or hangs by HDMI cable. HIDEit's purpose-built mount solves the problem — quick install, no drilling required for most wall-mounted-TV setups, perfect ventilation.

Who It's For
NVIDIA Shield TV Pro owners with wall-mounted TVs. Home theater builders prioritizing clean cable runs. Renters wanting hideable AV gear behind cabinet-mounted TVs. Skip it if you have a different Shield TV model (won't fit), if your TV sits on a stand (no need to hide), or if your AV cabinet is roomy enough for visible placement.
How to Use It
Mount on the wall behind or beside the TV. Use the included drywall anchors for non-stud installations. Route HDMI and power cables through the mount's cable channels. Verify ventilation clearance — Shield TV Pro warms during use. Test all remote functions before final cable management; some buttons need line-of-sight.
How It Compares
Vs. universal AV component mounts: universal mounts compromise on fit; HIDEit is purpose-built. Vs. desk/shelf placement: desk placement requires shelf space and cable visibility. Vs. behind-TV adhesive mounts: adhesive isn't long-term reliable for ~14 oz hardware. Vs. inside-cabinet placement: cabinet placement is fine if cabinet is roomy enough.
Bottom Line
The right Shield TV Pro mount for wall-mounted TV setups. Buy it for clean home theater installations. Skip it for stand-mounted TVs or different Shield models.
