I want to welcome you to our website. Thank you for taking the time to visit us at TV Stands Online. We hope that you will find the information provided to be useful in your search.
I know that when I started looking around for the right stand for my new television set I had a tough time finding something that would work well for me. I had just purchased a 65″ LCD TV and was looking around for something to set it on. What I found was that, most of the time, they were only made for sets up to 52″. Even full entertainment systems did not provide an a reasonable answer as they were also geared towards the average size CRT, DLP, Flat Screen, LCD, or Plasma TV.
So I decided that it would be helpful to create a website that people can come to that will assist them in their search, and possibly keep them from experiencing some of the headache and time consumption that I experienced in my quest for TV stands in the right price ranges.
As this site grows we hope to include some reviews of popular stands, some information about custom work, where you can go to purchase your TV stands, what to consider when searching for TV stands for your new or existing sets, and what our recommendations are for different size sets. Of course, we will be adding information on what our favorite ideas are and information we have found useful when trying to make our decisions on purchases. We will also discuss some alternate options to going out and purchasing a new one. We are a new site so check back often for updates, information, and new posts.
We also hope to, at some point in the future, offer some discounts and deals to our readers. As we are able to solidify some relationships with our chosen manufacturers and custom design folks we will let you know about them as soon as they are set.
We would also love to hear from you! Drop us an email (you can find this on our Contact page) and let us know what you would like to see or any questions you might have about this site. We will work hard to give you the information you need and want to see.
So look around, check out the posts and enjoy your time on our site. Thank you for stopping by to see us!

A Pine TV Stand For The Lake House
People are doing more to make their recreational homes a little more appealing today, and just piling in the leftovers or hand me downs from their main home is just not going to fly anymore. Usually a mountain cabin or lake house will have more of a country flair with its furniture and overall design theme, and pine furniture is a good place to start building your collection. As square footage is usually at a premium in weekend homes, and something like an entertainment center might be a bit overwhelming to the living room area. However, a pine TV stand will work perfectly in most cases.
Pine TV stands are more of a commodity retail item, and almost any furniture store will carry their own variation of this utility type piece of furnishing. You maybe thinking on the less expensive side and you would be wrong. Anything made from wood these days is going to be more expensive, since the United States lumber market has expanded to selling in China and other countries in recent years, and our so called wood-surplus is gone, and everything goes to the highest bidder. Be prepared to spend about a hundred and thirty to two hundred for decent stand that is made of solid pine.
A rustic pine TV stand will go well in a log cabin setting and will probably blend well with the related walls that sit behind the stand. Doing an online search for this specific product reveals many competitors with a similar product; so finding one will not be an issue as much as selecting the right one to put in your weekend hide-a-way. If you find a pine stand that doesn’t have that rustic look and feel but you like the styling, you can always distress the wood exterior, and give it the exact look you want to achieve.
Buying an unfinished pine TV will allow you to make the precise decor accent that you want and with little work. Today most furniture purchased in this condition is already sanded, and at most, will need a touch up before applying the several coats of wood stain and clear coat if needed. Another popular piece that is ready to use but falls in this category is the unfinished hand peeled mission style television stand. These very rustic looking pieces appear to be straight off the prairie. Customarily this will be available with matching furniture for a complete frontier look with sofa, chair, and coffee table made with the same material and finish.
A pine corner TV stand is going to be the best choice for those extra cozy cabins, or if you want to install a television in the bedroom or loft of your cabin on the shores. To save money you can buy a MDF style of stand that is laminated with a pine veneer, these will usually require assembly, and will take about an hour to have it ready to go once you get it home. These of course are going to be for a smaller TV, as the walls will dictate how large of a screen you have on a corner stand.
Repurposing a small pine nightstand with a new finish can save money, but will cut into your leisure time. Most people are throwing out less and making what they have last longer these days, and taking excess furniture inventory to utilize in other areas with a face lift is a very up and coming trend, that most are following right now. Also locating piece of used furniture at a garage sale or from an online classified can realize similar results.
