How To Choose The Best Cheap Tv Stand
What your TV is sitting on top of is almost as important as the TV itself. These days a TV is a large investment and paying over $1000 – $1500 is not uncommon for a large screen LCD or Plasma TV. But with all of the choice available to you, how do you choose?
The best thing is to first choose with your budget in mind. If you just spent $1500 on the TV you might not feel like you have a lot left to spend on a stand. Cheap TV stands may be inexpensive but many of them are very good quality and will be sturdy enough to last for many years to come. The unit has to hold up the weight of the TV. That brings us to the next point.
The size of the TV determines the size of your stand. Make sure that the stand is at least as wide as your TV, if not wider. The large TV on top of a small stand will look out of place and strange in your home. Under the heavy weight, the small stand could collapse or buck which could be dangerous. There is a danger that it could fall to the ground if someone bumps into the stand if there is a big difference in size. The sound of your new TV falling to the floor is not something that you want to hear.
Choose a material that fits your other furniture. Go with a cherry finish if all of your other living room furniture is in cherry already. If you put a mahogany or other wooden TV stands in the room it will stand out and draw a lot of attention to itself.
Is it going to be in the corner of the room or in the center of the wall? There are specific units available if you are going to put the unit in the corner of the room. These units use the extra space offered by the corner as storage to maximize the space. A standard straight unit is perfect for being in the center of the wall. These units are straight and can be placed anywhere. You can use a straight unit in the corner but you may loose some usable space in your TV room.
Finding the right stand for you is simple, pick a budget, get the right size, choose your material and know its location. Have these criteria in mind and you will be able to quickly sort through the many units that are available.
