I hate our entertainment center. It's not disgusting or anything but it just holds too much crap. Isn't that funny? We're always looking for things to hold stuff and for storage and here I am complaining that it holds too much stuff. The problem is that, because it holds so much stuff, there's always a ton of junk on it. Movies EVERYWHERE and it becomes a place for people to set things and then just leave them there. No matter how I clean or rearrange it, it still looks messy. Drives me batty!
I was looking for a new
tv stand and decided that I don't want to give up storage, entirely, even though I like things like this:
I know there's a little storage underneath but I think, ultimately, I'd really prefer a
armoire type of
tv stand.
Like this:
Then I can just close the doors on any clutter and no one even has to know it's there!
What kind of
tv stand do you have? What do you recommend??

Big open unit with bookcases on each side. I used to love it. Now, it's too big. It does have lots of space for my books, but also lots to dust. Sigh. Good luck. Can't wait to see what you decide.
We have number 2 without doors. Our TV is going and we are looking at getting option 1:-)
On a big built in cabinet.
Good luck.

We have more like # one, only not as long. But ours is from Ikea and is pretty crappy :O)
We don't have a tv or a stand, but my mom has the armoire type and it looks nice (until you open it that is :)).
I have an antique oak washing stand dresser. It looks cute but the drawers are a booger to open and close.
We have built in unit downstairs and something similar to #1 with tall shelves on either side upstairs for the girls. So I guess I'm kinda like Hanna Montana on this one, "I have the best of both worlds"!
I have one of each....our plasma is on one like the first one pictured and our old TV in the basement is in an armoire. Both have their advantages so I think it just depends on your space. Good luck choosing!
