Stand or Lift?
When we bought our LCD flat-panel TV a couple years ago, we never bothered to get a proper stand to go with it. Instead, we just put the new TV on the stand that our old CRT model was on, even though it doesn’t fit. Needless to say, this current setup is very unstable, and it wouldn’t take much of a bump to knock the whole thing down.
So now that we’ve saved up enough money to rectify the situation, we’re wondering which would be better for the room, a stand or a lift. If we go with a stand, we’d just have to buy something a little bigger to accommodate the dimensions of the new TV. I’d prefer one of those super-cool automatic tv lifts, which would hide the TV away and protect it when it’s not in use.
Yes, the lift is a bit more expensive, but I think it would be a smarter purchase in the long run. After all, with a growing boy and two dogs in the house, you never know what kind of accidents might befall your television set!
