Choosing the Right Size Entertainment Unit

Selecting the correct size entertainment unit is crucial for both aesthetics and functionality. Measure your TV and room dimensions before making a decision. A general rule is to choose a unit at least 10 cm wider than your TV on each side. Consider the height as well—ideally, the centre of your TV screen should align with eye level when seated for comfortable viewing. For those with limited space, our Scandinavian tv and entertainment units often feature sleek, compact designs that maximize functionality without overwhelming smaller rooms.

Entertainment Units for Small Spaces

Compact living doesn't mean compromising on style or storage. For smaller rooms, look for slimline TV units or wall-mounted options that maximise floor space. Some entertainment units feature vertical storage, perfect for apartments or cosy living areas. These space-saving designs ensure you can enjoy a well-organised media setup without overwhelming your room. Consider multi-functional pieces that can serve as both a TV stand and additional storage, optimizing your limited space efficiently.

Entertainment Units with Integrated Storage Solutions

Storage is a key feature of modern entertainment units. Many of our TV units offer a combination of open shelving and closed cabinets. Open shelves are ideal for displaying decor or housing media players, while closed storage keeps unsightly cables and clutter hidden. Look for units with adjustable shelves to accommodate various sizes of electronics and media collections. Our oak tv entertainment units often feature clever storage solutions that blend seamlessly with their elegant design, providing both style and practicality.

Entertainment Unit Placement and Room Layout

The placement of your entertainment unit can significantly impact your room's layout and viewing experience. Position your unit to minimise glare on the TV screen from windows or light fixtures. Consider traffic flow around the unit and ensure there's enough space for doors and drawers to open fully. If possible, centre the unit on the main viewing wall for a balanced look. To create a cohesive living space, consider pairing your entertainment unit with complementary furniture pieces such as coffee tables that match or contrast with your chosen style.

Maintaining and Cleaning Your Entertainment Unit

Regular maintenance keeps your entertainment unit looking its best. Dust weekly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent build-up. For wooden units, use appropriate wood cleaners and avoid excess moisture. Glass components require special care—use a streak-free glass cleaner. Always refer to the care instructions specific to your unit's materials to ensure longevity and preserve its appearance. For units with intricate designs or special finishes, consider using specialized cleaning products to maintain their unique characteristics and protect their surfaces from damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How wide should my entertainment unit be compared to my TV?

Your entertainment unit should be at least 15-30cm wider than your TV on each side for visual balance. This means a 150cm TV works well with a 180-210cm entertainment unit. However, room proportions matter more than strict rules - ensure the unit doesn't overwhelm or underwhelm your space.

Do I need cable management features in my entertainment unit?

Yes, cable management is essential for a clean, organized look. Look for units with cord holes, channels, or hidden compartments. Without proper cable management, even the most stylish unit can look cluttered. Consider your current and future electronics when evaluating cable management needs.

Can I mount my TV above an entertainment unit, or should it sit on top?

Both options work well. Mounting creates a streamlined look and frees up surface space, but requires proper wall anchoring. Placing the TV on the unit is easier but requires ensuring the unit can support your TV's weight and that the height provides comfortable viewing angles.

How much storage space do I actually need in an entertainment unit?

Consider your current electronics, media collection, and accessories. Allow for future additions like new gaming consoles or streaming devices. Open shelving works for frequently accessed items, while closed storage hides clutter. Most people underestimate their storage needs, so err on the side of more space.

What height should my entertainment unit be for optimal TV viewing?

The center of your TV screen should be at eye level when seated. For most seating arrangements, this means entertainment units should be 40-60cm high. However, personal preference, sofa height, and room layout all influence the ideal height for your specific setup.
