How to Choose the Perfect TV Stand for a 55, 65 or 75-Inch Television

Television sizes are quoted diagonally, which makes choosing the right stand more confusing than it should be. This guide explains how to match a TV stand to a 55, 65 or 75 inch screen by starting with the measurements that actually matter: the real width of the screen, the distance between its feet, its weight and the height at which you want to watch it. We give approximate screen widths and heights for each size, suggest suitable stand lengths and depths, and explain why larger screens usually call for lower, longer consoles. You will find a simple method for working out the right stand height from your sofa, guidance on viewing distance and room size, and advice on build quality, load ratings, soundbars and storage for bigger setups.
