Survey of 2,000 UK Households on TV Placement - No published UK source records how television placement splits between stands and wall mounts, and Furniture in Fashion did not survey 2,000 households, so this report quotes no share. It sets out instead the physical rules that decide which placement works. Viewing height is the real question: the centre of the screen belongs at or just below the eye level of a seated viewer, usually 100cm to 110cm from the floor, which media unit heights deliver almost by accident and wall mounts frequently miss. Mounting above a fireplace is identified as the most common and least comfortable position. The analysis covers wall construction, including why dot and dab plasterboard over masonry causes unsafe fixings, why cable routing must be decided before the bracket goes up, why wall mounting rarely suits rented homes, and why most wall mounted screens end up with a unit beneath them anyway. Guidance covers measuring your own eye line and securing whichever option you choose."}
