Entertainment center sizes and room fit
An entertainment center should be wider than the TV and sized to the wall it stands against. Widths here run 47 to 108.2 inches, and depths stay between 14.9 and 16.9 inches, so even the largest wall units keep a slim footprint. Before choosing a full wall unit, measure the ceiling height and wall width.
Entertainment center for 75 inch TV and larger screens
An entertainment center for a 75 inch TV needs a TV surface wider than the screen, which measures about 65 inches across. Select models here are rated for 75 or 80 inch TVs, while others are rated for 65 or 70 inch screens.
On wall units with side towers, the open space between the towers limits the screen size more than the overall width does.
Entertainment center with fireplace options
An entertainment center with fireplace sets an electric fireplace insert below the TV, adding a flame effect without a chimney. Some models here include one, including a full-height wall unit. Plug it directly into a wall outlet and keep the front clear of decor.
Entertainment center wall unit storage
An entertainment center wall unit surrounds the TV with storage, and most models here include storage of some kind, from open shelves and drawers to cabinet doors and glass doors that keep dust off display pieces.
Some models add LED lights or USB charging. Leave air space around game consoles kept inside closed cabinets.
TV entertainment center construction and care
A TV entertainment center here is built from MDF, particleboard or engineered wood panels, some with a metal frame, and select models add tempered glass.
Dust with a soft dry cloth, wipe spills quickly, and spray glass cleaner onto the cloth rather than the unit. Load heavy items on low shelves and anchor tall units to the wall with an anti-tip strap.
White entertainment center and black finishes
A white entertainment center and a black one are the most common choices here, followed by blue and gray, with walnut, brown, cherry, beige, natural and mint green on select models. White keeps a large wall unit from feeling heavy in a bright room, while black blends with a dark screen.
