TV Stands vs TV Cabinets

TV Stands

The simplest way to mount a large screen TV is a stand which is a small and usually inexpensive piece of furniture designed to support a bulky TV unit on top. A minimalist stand is a mount with no additional storage facility, but most stands provide some basic shelving to rest your media player and store cable boxes. TV stands are cheaper than cabinets, lighter and easier to move and take up less space.

TV Cabinets

Cabinets allow you to mount your big screen television - and sometimes even inside the general frame, but look like a normal furniture cabinet from the outside. With cabinets you generally get a nicer design the more money you spent. Cabinets can look nicer than a basic stand, and provide a lot more storage space compared to stand, however they are bulkier, less portable and more expensive.

Cabinet systems can also feature doors that close when you are not using your television. When selecting a TV cabinet, ensure it matches your homes interior design and of course that it can accommodate the size of your television unit and media players. If you play console video games, have a lot of equipment and need somewhere to store your DVDs, the right cabinet can be a godsend.
