Furniture Upgrade

jdot · 07-21-2011, 05:15 PM

I just bought a new 50 inch plasma tv and am looking to upgrade the furniture in my apartment a bit. Any suggestions?

It's sad really. I am currently watching the tv on the ground because I didn't even buy a tv stand for it yet.

Any recommendations on what I should get? I am against getting a wall mount because I am currently in an apartment and don't want to get charged for drilling holes in their walls.

I don't suppose a media cabinet / console table has crossed your mind.... since you have a tv and you have an apartment so you can't wall mount it and you know you want furniture.

Look into spackle and a putty knife. Hang the tv, patch when you leave.

As for furniture, a reasonable starting point would be to look at Room and Board, they have a store in San Francisco if you want to take a quick trip.

Just go on amazon or overstock and price out media stands
