The key is to buy a TV stand that’s compatible with both your television and the existing decor and homewares in your room. A big screen on a small TV stand poses a safety risk while a TV unit that’s too large for your television can look odd. It’s just as important to find a TV stand style that matches the style of your room.

How can I find the right TV Unit size?

• STEP 1 - Television screens are usually advertised with their diagonal measurement—the size of the screen from one top corner to the opposite bottom corner. This measurement isn’t particularly useful if you want to find a TV stand that fits—what you need are the measurements for the width, depth, and height of your TV. It will be varied brand to brand.
• STEP 2 - Start to look at an entertainment unit that will best fit your TV. Your television unit should be at least a few inches wider and deeper than the TV itself (a reasonable guide is to aim for a unit at least ten centimeters wider than the TV).
• STEP 3 - Another consideration is finding a TV unit that allows your screen to sit at just the right viewing level, where you don’t have to crane your neck for the best viewing angle. The best tip is to position your TV at or just below eye level.
• STEP 4 - consider finding a TV unit that allows your screen to sit at just the right viewing level, where you don’t have to crane your neck for the best viewing angle. The best tip is to position your TV at or just below eye level.
• STEP 5 - We recommend having a viewing distance that is at least 1.5 times your screen size, which will allow you to appreciate the details on the screen without noticing individual pixels.
