Let me ask you something: what good is having an LCD TV if you don’t have a good LCD TV stand for it? It’s like owning a nice car but having no driver’s license! It just doesn’t make any sense. You’ve got to show that thing off and prop it up in just the right way for your viewing pleasure. There are so many options in television stands and mounts that the supplies are endless. You can literally drive yourself crazy looking at all the different models, colors and styles out there. In this article we’ll take a look at the best LCD TV Stands out there, and also what you should look for to know which one to buy in general.

I always like to tell people who have recently purchased an LCD television that they have made a swell choice. I congratulate them on taking this bold move into the 21^st century, and I let them know that I think liquid crystal display is just utterly beautiful… if it is put on a good TV stand. If you just put it on the floor, then you are wasting so much money it’s not even funny. Not only that but you cannot rightly have a great looking brand spanking new LCD TV with a mediocre or old looking stand for it to sit on. Chances are it would not fit anyway considering the average flat screen television is now at least 40 inches large. With this in mind its going to take at least  42 LCD TV stands to accommodate that size so let’s analyze some stand-makers who have really stood themselves out from the crowd.

The Sanus LCD TV stands are some of the more popular now retailing on the open market. They have one in particular that could probably hold an entire building up in the air. It sells for over $300. Of course this is a sufficient vehicle for any flat panel TV of sufficient height and width. But what does it do that others don’t, justifying its exorbitant price tag?

First of all, the Sanus TV stand is super easy to put together. You don’t need to be a mechanic or a carpenter in order to get it up and running, thankfully. Another great thing about their LCD TV Stands is that they are built with all of your components in mind; not just the TV. It has great media storage for your components and DVD, CD collections. This is terrific because the modern LCD TV owner doesn’t just have the flat-panel; he’s got DVD players, audio systems, maybe an iPod dock, a central base, all of that, etc. You will probably be able to politely arrange it all on the stand.

Bush TV stands are also hugely popular and while their prices are kind of expensive if you look hard enough you can find some really good deals. They are very well manufactured and reliability and durability is not something you have to worry about with this brand name. Reviews on these TV stands are great and consumers usually have nothing but positive feedback. Bush takes the consumers view into factor and their stands have great DVD storage options from dvd storage shelves to DVD storage racks and storage drawers for your ever growing media collection.

Of course, if you want to go cheaper that is of course an option. Especially since the stand profiled above is an older one, now there is way more on the market. Even Walmart sells a good swivel LCD TV stand that will display your video at just the right angle. My point is just that there are good deals all over the place, if you’ll just look for them. You don’t have to pay $300. You can get something good for $100 because of the explosion of this industry. Corner LCD TV stands are also a hot commodity since the corner of the room is typically where most people get the best viewing for their audience.

Another little tip I’ll give you is that even though you should be able to put these stands together yourself, when it comes time to actually mount your LCD TV, you may have trouble doing it alone. If you’ve got a kid with some muscles around your house, you’ll probably have to pry him away from his video games for two minutes in order to enlist his help. But other than that, it’s really an easy job for two people to handle. LCD TV stands are on the rise and prices are dropping so if you want to get in the group you better start looking now. The following video will show you how to go about setting up an LCD television stand.
