TV Stands UK, TV Units & Cabinets infographic

The kind of TV cabinet you want to buy depends on the size of your living room because the size has to match seamlessly with the size of your TV cabinet and the TV itself.

To ensure that your TV fits effortlessly on the cabinet or entertainment unit, you’d want to select a TV cabinet that is at least 20% longer, length-wise, than you TV.

You could, however, go for a cabinet that isn’t 20% longer than your TV; that is, as long as your TV’s legs or supports are in the middle and not out to the sides.

• The key to enjoying your TV viewing time is having it at the correct height. For example, it needs to be at eye-level for optimal viewing.
• TV stands, units & cabinets come in different heights, so you should choose one that doesn’t make the TV sit too high or too low. A TV stand with a mount, in fact, allows you to adjust the viewing height as you please.
• Alternatively, you could choose TV wall brackets to mount your screen up against the wall, while using the extra space on the cabinet to place your amp or game console, for example.
• All in all, the height of your TV should never cause neck strain and this means that your sight line shouldn’t be too far above the centre portion of your screen. Choose a cabinet accordingly.

• In your quest to find the perfect TV cabinet size, you need to consider the layout and shape of your living room.
• If you have, say, a large and well-proportioned room, almost any shape and size will look very good indeed.
• On the other hand, if you have a narrow or somewhat oddly-shaped living room, then corner TV cabinets would be a far better choice.
• The kind of TV cabinet you choose according to the shape of your living room can really help you make the most of your space and enjoy great TV viewing for many hours without feeling uncomfortable.
• Even if you decide to use a wall mount for your TV to save some space, your TV unit and cabinet will prove to be very useful – acting as a stylish centrepiece, where you can store everything from electronics and DVDs/Blurays to books, household supplies, and more.

• Finally, we should talk about storage.
• Most TV cabinets or entertainment units have added storage which you can use to keep your set top box, game consoles, amplifier and speakers + subwoofer, or even Bluray packs, remote controls, game controllers, and perhaps a small personal computer.
• Closed cabinets can conceal these items nicely although you should choose a design that allows your electronic items to easily dissipate heat.
• Open shelving might work best in this case, as long as you don’t mind the wires showing a bit, although you could ask your local electrician to conceal all that – hardly takes a few minutes.
• Our HiFi stands and units offer lots of varied options to help keep all your TV and entertainment related stuff nicely organised and out of the way.
