What size TV stand do I need for a 65-inch TV?

A 65-inch TV should sit on a TV stand that is at least 65 inches wide -- ideally wider. A stand narrower than the TV looks precarious and is structurally risky. For a 65-inch TV, look for a media console 68 inches or wider. For a 75-inch TV, a stand 72 inches or wider is appropriate.

What is the difference between a TV stand and a media console?

TV stand typically refers to a narrower piece designed to hold a TV and little else -- just the stand itself. A media console is wider and includes storage: drawers, cabinets, and shelves for components, remotes, gaming equipment, and media. Both support the TV on top; media consoles provide more organized storage around it.

Should I mount my TV or use a TV stand?

Wall mounting saves floor space and gives a cleaner look, but requires locating studs and a level installation. A TV stand is easier to set up, allows the TV to be moved, and provides built-in storage. For renters or anyone who might reconfigure the room, a TV stand is more flexible. For a permanent setup with storage handled elsewhere, wall mounting is a clean solution.

TV Stands & Media Consoles | Fireplace, Corner & Floating

A TV stand needs to be wide enough to keep the television from overhanging the edges, and the screen center should land at seated eye level -- roughly 42 to 48 inches from the floor for most households. Our TV stand collection includes standard consoles, media chests, and fireplace TV stands in a range of widths for 50 to 85 inch TVs.

What Size TV Stand Do I Need?

A good rule of thumb: your TV stand should be at least as wide as your TV screen and ideally 2 to 6 inches wider on each side. For a 65" TV, look for a console at least 55" wide. For a 75" TV, target 65" or wider. Height matters too -- your TV screen should sit at or just below eye level when seated, so measure your seating height before purchasing.

Types of TV Stands We Carry

Standard media consoles -- low-profile stands with open shelving and closed cabinet storage. These work well for most rooms and TV sizes up to 75 inches.

Corner TV stands -- designed to sit in a room corner, making use of space that standard furniture cannot. Good for smaller rooms or rooms with limited wall space.
Entertainment centers and walls -- large unit furniture that frames the whole TV wall. Includes piers, towers, and hutch components. Best for dedicated home theater or media rooms.
Floating TV consoles -- wall-mounted, open-base style that creates a modern look and makes floors easier to clean. Available in matte black, white, and wood tone finishes.
