Your TV is wider than your stand. Here are your options from quick fixes to permanent solutions.
TV size is measured diagonally, but what matters for stand compatibility is the width. A 65" TV is approximately 57 inches (145 cm) wide. Many entertainment units are narrower than this.
| TV Size | Approximate Width | Minimum Stand Width |
|---|---|---|
| 55" | 48" (122 cm) | 52" (132 cm) |
| 65" | 57" (145 cm) | 61" (155 cm) |
| 75" | 65" (165 cm) | 69" (175 cm) |
| 85" | 74" (188 cm) | 78" (198 cm) |
Wall mount the TV: Remove the stand dependency entirely. The TV floats on the wall and you can set it at the correct ergonomic height.
Replace the entertainment unit: Find a wider unit. Measure your TV width and add at least 4 inches on each side.
Use a floor stand: Freestanding TV floor stands require no wall mounting and work well in rented spaces.
