When considering an under cabinet TV, one of the first things that come to mind is the kitchen. It appears to be the most logical place to put an under cabinet TV but is it advisable to do so? Definitely, many people will agree that having a TV in the kitchen is a good idea. You can watch the news and other shows while preparing the meals for the family. Having a TV in the kitchen is a time saver because it doesn't take you away from your kitchen chores. Au contraire, it brings you closer to the action. Once you've decided on the TV, the next question that comes to mind is whether the TV will be a counter TV or an under cabinet TV. An under cabinet TV should be the more viable choice. You don't need to build an extra shelf or cabinet to hold the TV. There are under cabinet TV brackets that can hold the TV in place very effectively and efficiently. Check out the different types of under cupboard TV brackets at your nearest DIY store and you'll see what I mean.
There are several considerations when deciding on the type of TV. One consideration is the size of the screen. An under cabinet screen is usually small compared to a table top screen. However, in the confines of a kitchen, a small screen may be more practical than a larger screen. Besides, you need the table space to arrange your ingredients and set the food. A CRT screen is cheaper but more bulky than a LCD screen. The LCD screen has better resolution and brighter pictures. Swiveling the TV is possible for both alternatives. In fact, the under cabinet TV brackets make for swiveling easy and convenient. This facilitates viewing the program without necessarily relocating the TV. The under cabinet TV is the space saver consideration, and you don't have to worry about bumping the TV. Don't worry about keeping the TV stable. Those under cabinet brackets are sturdy and hold items heavier than a TV set.
Some TVs have other features that may be useful in the kitchen. One of the final considerations would be whether the cabinet can take the extra weight. Check the weight of the TV and see if the cabinets are bolted tightly to the wall. You can put additional support on the cabinets and screw several additional bolts into the wall to hold the cabinet in place. Remember that the weight of the TV will be pulling on the cabinet daily and the cabinets may give in eventually. Having the extra support in place will put your mind at ease.
Putting the under cabinet TV in place will require under cabinet TV brackets. Under cabinet TV brackets come in different sizes to fit various TV brands and models. Go to the appliance store and check their displays so you have an idea of what to expect in your kitchen. See how they display the under cabinet TV brackets and check on how they installed it. Discuss with the professionals on installing the TV set with under cabinet TV brackets. They are more than willing to help you. It is an easy task which you can do with a couple of friends and neighbors. However, if you want to be sure that the TV brackets are correct and the installations are done properly, you can hire some professionals to do the job. Remember choosing a TV set involves more than just the TV. The TV brackets play a major part in ensuring your comfort and enjoyment.
