TV cabinets are the basis of a home theater in the living room. Thanks to this stylish furniture, the TV is at the optimal height for viewing. They also offer plenty of space for extensions and accessories.
What are the advantages of a TV stand?
The TV cabinet offers a large flat surface to accommodate different sized TVs, from small 30-inch TVs to massive 65-inch TVs and more.
Thanks to its robust design and high stability, the top of the TV furniture can support heavy devices.
Compartments and drawers provide space for accessories such as receivers, game consoles or players.
Cable guides on the back of the cabinet prevent cable tangles and provide a neat appearance with no visible cables.
Most models offer options for placing speakers and soundbars.
What should you pay attention to when choosing a TV stand?
TV stands that can be placed on the floor are often called sideboards or low cabinets. You can quickly and easily integrate them into your living room without tools. You firmly screw the floating shelf-style TV furniture to the wall. The increased installation effort is offset by the airy appearance.
Tip: You can easily move the TV stand on wheels to the side when you want to clean the floor.
The dimensions of the TV stand should be in harmony with the dimensions of your TV and accessories. The smallest models, 40 cm wide and 15 cm high, are designed to be placed on a table and often serve as a monitor stand. Large AV systems can be placed on a cabinet up to 3 m wide and 50 cm high.
While simple furniture is made from veneered MDF panels, quality TV cabinets are made from solid wood such as spruce, pine, beech or oak. This increases the stability, value and lifespan of low boards or shelves.
Tip: If you have special requirements, you can also purchase TV furniture made of metal, glass or plexiglass.
Simple stands have one or two open storage compartments underneath the main slab. It can store devices such as record players or soundbars. In addition to open shelving, quality cabinets also offer drawers for small accessories such as remote controls and TV guides, as well as large cabinet compartments equipped with doors.
Tip: Combined furniture consists of a TV stand and several separate shelves, the design of which matches the TV stand. You can freely place shelves near the TV.
Enclosed cabinet compartments must have openings at the rear for power and signal cables to pass through. A cable channel on the back of the furniture allows you to connect your AV system in a space-saving and visually discreet way.
When designing a TV stand, you can choose between simple untreated wood models, carefully veneered models with an elegant appearance, or visually reduced TV stands with a modern look in black, white or with clear elements. Vintage furniture in a richly decorated Baroque style forms a bridge between tradition and high technology. The TV doesn't have to be on top of the cabinet. It can also be mounted "floating" above furniture using a TV wall mount.
Tip: Cabinets with white glossy surfaces look elegant. However, please note that they may reflect light and are more susceptible to dirt and fingerprints!
