What is a TV unit?

A TV unit – also known as a TV stand or TV cabinet- is a specially designed piece of furniture to safely store your TV and related accessories. The top surface is usually reserved for the TV, but a TV media unit usually has cubbies or cupboards beneath this, ideal for games consoles, set top boxes, DVD players and standalone sound systems, usually with pre-cut holes in the back for you to feed cables through. Some models also have drawers for additional storage, which are ideal for remotes, DVDs, games and controllers. With DFS, you can always spread the cost of your new TV stand with our interest free credit options.

Why do I need a TV unit?

While some people prefer to mount their TV on the wall, a TV unit can be a great alternative for many reasons. Perhaps you don’t have a suitable wall to mount your TV on, are living in a rented home and don’t wish to damage the walls, or simply don’t want to mount your TV on the wall. Maybe you like to rearrange your room often, have lots of consoles or accessories connected to your TV, or simply like the look of a TV on a stand. Media units can make a great addition to your living room furniture. Whatever the reason, a TV unit makes a practical and stylish way to display your TV.

What TV stand should I buy?

There are plenty of options when it comes to TV stands - no matter what decor style you prefer in your living space. Classic wood veneer and oak TV stands are a timeless option, and you can also discover industrial inspired wood and iron TV units. Modern homes may prefer a sleek glass or metal TV unit, or a TV cabinet in contemporary white gloss. There are also unusual TV units available at DFS, like those in bold colours or made from mixed materials, for lovers of maximalist styles.

How should I decorate my TV stand?

If you love the minimalist look, you could just top your TV unit with your TV and call it a day! However, you can also accessorise your TV stand with family photos, plants, ornaments and vases, or a storage basket for your TV remotes. There’s limitless options for decorating your TV unit- just remember not to cover up the screen!

Can I buy a TV unit with storage?

Absolutely, here at DFS we stock many options when it comes to TV units with storage. There’s plenty to choose from - including TV units with open shelving, TV stands with cupboards, TV cabinets with drawers, and TV units with open cubbies. Whether you want your consoles and DVD player on display, or hidden away, there’s an option to suit your living space.
