TV stands are an important part of the living room experience. They help keep your media organized while creating a focal point for your living space. We've been trying different TV stands for different aesthetics, and made a list of the best ones here.
WE Furniture Classic Wood TV Stand
Reasons to buy
Take pride in your television with this 58-inch wood TV stand. You can count on it to be sturdy as it's built to accommodate up to 250 pounds and can fit most 60-inch flat-screen televisions. It's made from high-grade MDF construction with a durable laminate that will complement the other pieces in your living room or bedroom.
You won't have to worry about unsightly cables poking out all over the place. It comes with a cable management system to help you maintain a clean entertainment space, just how you like it. The adjustable shelving is perfect for an array of items. Whether you've got a gaming system, DVD player, or cable box, there's room for it all. You can store other items, like DVDs, books, a basket with your remotes, and whatever else you can come up with.
It comes in a variety of colors, including Espresso, Black, Charcoal, Driftwood, and Rustic Oak. Given the price point, it's essential to make sure the material and color of the TV stand are going to match your other furniture to your liking. This isn't a big deal for everyone, but it could be a deal-breaker for some. The piece itself is 58 inches long, so be sure you've got the space for it.
Ameriwood Home Carson TV Stand
Reasons to buy
The Ameriwood Home Carson TV stand will look lovely in contemporary living rooms. The design boasts three open shelves in the center. The top shelf for the television is separated by metal tubes. There are also two more shelves located behind the magnetic doors on either side of the unit. You'll have more than enough space for all of your electronics and other accessories.
This unit features laminated particleboard-construction, which is accented and supported by metal tubes. Whether you're placing it on hardwood or carpeted floor, you'll have superior stability. It can accommodate televisions of up to 50 inches with a weight capacity of 60 pounds. There's an alternative model that can hold TVs of up to 70 inches with a weight capacity of 120 pounds. The colors you can choose from are Black, Cherry, Espresso, Espresso/Weathered Oak, Graphite Gray, and Gray Oak.
Be prepared for the assembly process, which calls explicitly for two people. While it's possible to get it done with just one person, it might be rather time-consuming. There are two large holes in the back of the unit for wires, but that's as far as cable management goes with this TV stand.
Convenience Concepts Designs2Go 3-Tier TV Stand
Reasons to buy
You don't have to break the bank to get a functional TV stand that allows you to maximize your space. This 3-tier TV Stand is an affordable solution that will fit nicely in any room. At less than 25 pounds, it's easily one of the most lightweight TV stands on the market.
The unit provides three simple tiers for your television and electronic of choice. Given the compact design, you'll have to pick and choose what you use the space for. It can accommodate TVs up to 32 inches and hold up to 80 pounds. You won't be able to fit a giant flat screen on this unit, but it will work well in smaller rooms like offices and bedrooms.
While the price is unbeatable, you'll need to compromise in some areas. For starters, it boasts a wood grain finish, but it is made of various mediocre materials, like particleboard and plastic, for example. The basic design and three open shelves mean there's no real cable management system here. You'll have to rely on cord concealers or get creative with some DIY methods of your own.
FITUEYES Universal TV Stand with Swivel Mount
Reasons to buy
The FITUEYES Universal TV Stand with Swivel Mount gives you a modern, sleek, and smart design that will work well in multiple spaces. It comes with three separate shelves to hold your equipment and accessories.
Best of all? You'll be able to hide your wires with no trouble at all. This unit features a hidden channel in the center column that will conceal all of those pesky cords. Let's not forget about the fact that you can adjust the height and swivel the stand for your preferred viewing pleasure.
While many TV stands are designed to hold a specific size television, this one can fit any that fall between 32 inches and 65 inches. It may only come in one color option, which is black, but the sleek design will mesh well with all types of decor.
DEVAISE Versatile TV Stand
Reasons to buy
When you seek unmatched versatility in the form of a unique design, the DEVAISE Versatile TV Stand will check all of your boxes. This unit is easy to assemble and can be built into a few different configurations to suit your decor, whether it be conventional or modern in design. You might even prefer to mount your television to the wall, so it hangs over the unit as it stores your electronics.
No matter which configuration you choose, the TV stand will be able to accommodate up to a 60-inch television with a total weight capacity of 75 pounds. That's enough weight to hold your TV as well as plants, photos, books, DVDs, and other knickknacks. There are a few color choices available such as White, Black, Dark Oak, and Silver Oak.
You'll want to keep in mind that this unit uses a laminated honeycomb board instead of the usual solid particleboard. This can result in a less sturdy setup if you're not careful. Make sure you've evenly distributed the weight on the TV stand for maximum stability. While the open design will let you efficiently run cables through the shelves, there's really no cable management system in place to help hide the wires.
Altus Plus 58" Floating TV Stand
Reasons to buy
In some rooms, you need to save as much space as possible. The Altus Plus enables you to lift your TV stand off the ground with a convenient wall mount design. You'll have the luxury of choosing your preferred height and quickly mount the unit to the wall in a few simple steps.
While an off-the-floor console might seem unsteady, this unit can hold televisions of up to 60 inches with a total weight capacity of 165 pounds. The three massive compartments can store your A/V components as well as your favorite DVDs, books, and other small items.
Your color choices include Black, White, Espresso, and Drifted Gray. The construction consists of laminated composite wood for a sleek, flawless finish. While you can take advantage of the unfinished bottom side of the unit for storing cables and such, it won't be an easy task, especially once it's mounted to the wall.
