TV stands

When you’re looking to buy a new TV unit, it’s essential to carefully consider several criteria in order to find the model that will fit perfectly into your living space. Let’s review the main elements to keep in mind.

TV unit dimensions suited to your television and your room

The first thing to check is the size of your television. Carefully measure the screen dimensions, then make sure the TV unit you choose is slightly wider for stable support. Likewise, carefully assess the available space in your living room to determine the maximum dimensions of the unit. A good balance between the size of the screen and that of the unit is essential for a harmonious fit.

The ideal position in the room

Once the dimensions are established, think about the most suitable location for your TV unit. Would you like a floor-standing model, or would you prefer a wall-mounted unit to free up space? Also consider the height of the unit in relation to your viewing position from the sofa or armchairs. The goal is to achieve an optimal viewing angle for a comfortable viewing experience.

A style that matches your décor

The style of the TV unit is essential for ensuring it fits perfectly into your interior. Choose a well-priced model that complements the rest of your décor, whether your style is contemporary, industrial, Scandinavian or vintage. Play with materials (metal, aged wood or oak), colours (for example, white or black) and shapes to create a successful visual harmony.

Practical and functional storage

Beyond aesthetics, the functionality of the TV unit is essential. Choose a model with intelligently arranged storage spaces, whether open compartments, drawers or cupboard doors. This will allow you to elegantly conceal your boxes, cables and other audiovisual accessories for a streamlined living room.

Impeccable build quality

Finally, don’t forget to find out about the build quality of the TV unit. Choose robust, durable materials at the right price, capable of supporting the weight of your television over the long term. A solid, stable construction is essential, especially if you choose a wall-mounted model that requires secure wall fixing. By keeping these different criteria in mind, you’ll be able to find the perfect TV unit, at the right price, combining aesthetics, functionality and durability to enhance your living room for many years to come.

When choosing a TV stand, dimensions are a key factor to consider to ensure it fits perfectly into your living space. Here are the main measurements to keep in mind:

TV stand length

• The length of the stand should be greater than that of your television, generally 10 to 20 cm longer.
• Standard TV stands measure between 120 and 180 cm in length, depending on the screen size.
• For example, for a 55-inch television (140 cm wide), a stand of at least 150 cm will be suitable.

TV stand height

• The ideal height is generally between 30 and 100 cm from the floor.
• This height mainly depends on the height of your sofa or armchair, so that the upper third of the screen is at eye level when you are seated.
• As a general rule, the bottom of the screen should be around 90 cm from the floor.

TV stand depth

• There is no specific standard for depth, but it should be sufficient to accommodate your television while leaving space for storage and cables.
• A depth of between 40 and 50 cm is generally recommended.

In short, the ideal dimensions of a TV stand depend on the size of your screen and the layout of your room. It is essential to take these measurements into account to find the perfect piece for your interior.

• In general, TV units have tops designed to support televisions weighing up to a maximum of 50 kg.
• However, it is important to check the technical specifications of the chosen TV unit, as the load capacity may vary depending on the model.
• For wall-mounted TV units, the maximum supported weight depends on the type of fixing and the number of anchor points in the wall. Up to 30 kg, you should allow for one wall plug every 40 cm maximum.
• Above 30 kg, it is recommended to add invisible reinforcement brackets so that the top can support the weight of the television

In summary, before installing your television on a TV unit, make sure the weight of the screen does not exceed the load capacity specified by the manufacturer. This will help prevent any risk of damage or accident. If your television is particularly heavy, it is best to choose a wall-mounted unit with a suitable fixing system.

As the TV unit is a storage piece designed for a living room or lounge area, you can pair it with a NEW MODERN table in reclaimed antique wood to brighten up your space.

If you want to add a little more brightness to your room, choose a white metal structure, which can also pair well with TIPTOE wall shelves featuring white VENEZIA recycled plastic tops.

Next to your TV unit, you can place a bench with a solid wood top to add character to your room. Arrange decorative objects on it to give your space more depth.
