At TV Room Stands, it’s easier than ever to find the ideal television stands for your space. While most stores carry only a few variations, we’ve compiled an extensive assortment of hundreds of brands, colors, and styles. Before you begin shopping, it’s a good idea to
familiarize yourself with the most common materials and styles to help you pinpoint the type of media console you need.
What to Ask Yourself Before You Buy
High-quality television stands should provide dependable, attractive accommodations for your electronic investment, so it deserves the same level of research and planning. Before making a decision, consider these important factors:
- What type of television do you need to support? Keep in mind that different styles of TVs (plasma, flat-screen, standard, HD, etc.) will require different sizes and widths of media cabinets.
- How much additional storage will you need for components other than your TV? Remember that external DVD players, audio receivers, and Cable boxes will require their own dedicated space. You’ll need to decide if you’d prefer to store your accessories on open shelving or concealed in closed areas.
- What is the design style of your media room? Are you looking for something traditional, contemporary, modern, or classic, or do you prefer an antiqued look? What colors will complement your existing décor?
- How much space do you have available for your home television furniture? Remember that your TV storage cabinet or entertainment center will take up more room than the television itself. Be sure to measure the area to ensure the stand won’t take up too much space. For compact spaces, a corner unit may provide an efficient alternative.
- How prominent do you want your television to be? If you’re trying to fill a large space and want your media furniture to serve as a focal point, an entertainment center or TV armoire might be for you. But if you’d rather let the television take center stage, you might prefer a more understated console, such as a TV pedestal, wall mount unit, or small swivel stand.
- How much weight will the TV cabinet need to bear? Check the manufacturer’s specifications to ensure your chosen storage cabinet can support the load of your electronic components. For heavier plasma televisions, you might consider a power-
assisted lift stand, which raises and lowers your TV on demand. - Looking to add a new flat screen to a bedroom? End of the bed tv lift cabinets are the perfect addition to any bedroom designed to be placed at the foot of the bed. Look for such features as universal mounting systems for seamless tv installation and wireless remote control for easy operation of the cabinet lift.
Common TV Stand Materials
- Wood: A highly popular material for home TV furniture, hardwood provides stable, long-lasting support for your television. Natural wood grain variations will ensure that your media furniture is a one-of-a-kind piece. Many wood composites and veneers are also available, offering the look of wood stands at a greater value and a lighter weight.
- Glass: With the proliferation of more modern home décor styles, sleek glass television stands are becoming more common. The glass can be textured or tinted to create the look you want, but be sure that your media console uses tempered glass, which is stronger and more supportive than the regular variety.
- Metal: Also used in more modern styles of media furniture, metal is often paired with glass shelves to achieve a sleek, “floating” look. Metal stands are a sturdy, solid choice for supporting televisions and electronic components.
