Television Stands and TV SwivelsView our Media Storage category |
With so many options of TV stands and Television swivels available, it is possible to get very particular about what you want from your television stand or TV swivel. The best choice for you is the one that best fits your needs.
Types of Television Stands and TV Swivels
TV Cabinets: More than just a place to put your TV, television cabinets are attractive pieces of furniture to elegantly showcase your home theater system. One of the advantages to this style of TV stand is that it offers lots of room to house your other television and video components.
Corner TV Stands: One of the most space saving designs available, corner television stands fit where few other pieces of furniture will go in the corner! As an additional advantage the two adjoining walls act as lead lines to the TV.
Swivel TV Stands: Great for rooms with multiple sitting options, swivel television stands allow for easy maneuvering of the TV so that it is visible from several angles. This is also a popular option for those who like to rearrange their furniture or who have not settled on a final design plan for their media or living room.
Specialty TV Stands: Built to accommodate extra wide televisions, plasma TVs, or other new television technology, specialty television stands are designed to show off the coolest TVs in the hottest displays and are usually wider than traditional TV stands.
Stand & Swivel Dimensions
Make sure to measure all dimensions of your TV before starting your search for the perfect TV stand or swivel. The most important feature to look for is the depth of the shelf or cabinet compared to the depth of your television set. A TV that is hanging off the front or back of the stand or swivel is not only a danger to the television, it is also a serious risk to those in your home. Another thing to note is the weight of your TV. Check the TV size attribute of any TV stand or TV swivel you’re considering to make sure it won’t buckle beneath the weight of your set.
Some Additional TV Stand & Swivel Considerations
Pricing for your new television swivel or television stand will depend in large part on what it’s constructed from. Hardwood is a top-of-the line material, and TV swivels and stands crafted from hardwood will almost always be pricier than those crafted out of wood veneer and medium density fiberboard (MDF). There are many popular styles of metal and alloy television stands and swivels as well, and these can be found in low, medium, and high priced options. |
