Award Winning MB Quart Television Mirrors Revealed in Harrah’s “M” Suites
Chicago, IL January 28, 2009 – MB Quart® Non-Vanishing Illuminating Television Mirrors were
recently installed in all newly renovated “M” Suites of Harrah’s Las Vegas Hotel.
Harrah’s contracted designers, Urbane Design together with purchasing firm, Paradigm Purchasing,
contacted MB Quart because of the Television Mirrors hi-end exclusive features. “We specifically
wanted MB Quart Television Mirrors because of the television’s 1” profile, the hi-bright vivid color
reproduction of the mirror and the waterproof remote,” said Kurstin Schmitz, Urbane Design
Principal. “We felt that MB Quart was a company that manufactures with a distinct level of
excellence and quality to meet Harrah’s high standards,” Schmitz continued.
Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. is the world's largest provider of branded casino entertainment through operating subsidiaries. “With renovations to the suites completed earlier in the year, the MB Quart
Television Mirrors were installed afterward as time and schedule permitted. MB Quart’s custom
capabilities made an easy fit to match our design intent,” further added Schmitz.
This was the first hotel project to receive the newly redesigned MB Quart 17” LCD HDTV.
Coincidentally, this same television is used in the consumer line of HiddenReflections™ Vanishing
Television Mirrors which recently received a coveted International CES® Innovations 2009 Design
and Engineering Award. “Previously, MB Quart had taken the industry by storm with our 15” television. We were proud to be recognized for our technical prowess and receive such a prestigious
award in recognition of our increased LCD size, improvement to the properties in the mirror and
lightweight waterproof remote,” said MB Quart’s Sales Director, Brian Walter.
Three mirror sizes were produced for the Harrah’s project with MB Quart’s non-vanishing 17” LCD
centered left to right, 6” from the bottom of the mirror. The Television Mirrors included four-sided
edge lighting and were installed above the bathroom sinks of the Suites. “Most applications we have
found are in the bathroom, which inspired us to create an IR remote that can be completely
immersed in water,” Walter noted.
Walter concluded, “We appreciated the confidence that Harrah’s placed in us and it proved to be a successful partnership for all parties involved.”
