roomephantSee a TV stand in your living room
A TV stand should be wider than the television standing on it, and by a visible margin rather than a millimetre. Equal widths look like an accident; the stand reads as too small even when it holds the weight.
Measure your TV diagonally and you will get a number that tells you nothing useful here. What matters is the width of the screen and the span of its feet, and both are in the TV manual rather than the shop page.
How it works
1. Copy the product link from the store. 2. Paste it on the home page — name, photos and the listed dimensions load automatically. 3. Add one photo of your living room and put the frame where the TV stand should stand. 4. About thirty seconds later you get your room back with the TV stand in it.
Frequently asked
How much wider than the TV?
At least a few centimetres each side, more if the stand is low and long. The preview makes the proportion obvious immediately.
What about a wall-mounted TV?
Then the stand is furniture rather than support, and the only question is how it sits under the screen. Preview it that way.
Will the cables show?
The preview shows the piece as photographed by the shop, without your cables. Plan for them separately.
