Things to Consider When Buying an Amish TV Console

While most people spend considerable time — and money — selecting a new TV, many don't make the same effort when it comes to the TV console. A new TV, with all the bells and whistles, looks even more impressive when it's housed in a beautiful Amish TV console.

When shopping for a TV console from Snyder's, the leader of Amish furniture stores in Lancaster, PA, consider the following:

Size

How big is your TV? How big is your room? How much room do you have for a TV console?

Ideally, your TV console should be large enough to support your TV and all your entertainment gear but not be so large it overpowers your room. The key is to find a happy medium.

Placement

Placement can play a critical role in the decision of how big your console should be. Before you decide on the size, think about your options for placement.

First, check if any natural light will be hitting the screen and avoid those areas. Also consider rearranging your furniture to create new space for a console. By rearranging some furniture in a group, you might open a wall you didn't think was an option.

A TV doesn't need to be the focal point of the room. If you have a large, open space, you could put the TV console on one wall and position some of the furniture around it in a semi-circle. Then, by placing a couch in the middle of the room, you could break it into sections: one side for TV-watching, the other for socializing.

Storage

Ideally, your TV console should be a space dedicated to entertainment. It should house all your DVDs, your DVD player and game systems in an organized way.

How do you want to store your collection? If you’d like to display your DVD library, consider getting a console with glass doors that keep all your titles in view. If you prefer a more streamlined look, you'll want to opt for solid doors and drawers that keep all your electronics neatly hidden.

Look for a console that not only has enough room for what you have now, but can also easily accommodate your collection as it grows. Keep in mind as technology evolves, the need for space decreases. Many families now house their movies on a computer server, accessing them from their new TV. While you might need physical storage space now, you may not need as much in a couple of years.

Décor

One of the great things about Amish furniture from PA is its classic design; it’s easy to match with your current décor. With our custom-made Amish furniture from Lancaster, you can even choose the stain or finish that integrates seamlessly with the other pieces in your room.
