luckily this is just a 32; i had a 70 from the same brand with the same INSANELY FUCKING STUPID STAND DESIGN that i had to find something for....literally at the most extreme edges of the thing, what the fuck is this? this is so fucking stupid, it cannot be meaningfully cheaper than a proper design and it looks fucking dumb as hell and surely this has pissed off 90% of people that wanted a TV and want to put it on a little stand like a normal fucking person right??

How do you not do research on the dimensions of anything before buying something big like a TV?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

Mate I'll have done a 3D reconstruction of the room accurate to the mm to test everything out. I'm only slightly exaggerating, I literally did exactly that when planning my new office/studio, had the room in 3D long before we got the house, built everything myself, custom desk, acoustic treatment, etc.

A 32" TV is buying something big?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Do you buy a new TV, like, every other week?

They're like $150 and fit on a dresser. How much remodeling are you going to do for it

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It just takes a single measurement to avoid this... Measure/estimate width of the cabinet, look at the TV width, look at pictures of the TV. Then, if the TV is wider than the platform and has wide legs, don't buy something that probably won't fit.

I agree with the others, OP rushed to buy this on black friday without enough thought and now regrets that decision.

It used to take zero measurements to avoid this. That’s OP’s point.

Apparently, if it warrants making a post about it
