TV Consoles in Singapore: Style Meets Function
Looking for a TV console in Singapore that actually fits your living room? Whether you have a compact HDB flat or a spacious condo, the right TV console cabinet does more than hold your screen. It keeps your devices, cables and media organised while tying together the look of your space. At IUIGA, our TV consoles are designed with Singaporean homes in mind, blending quality materials with practical storage.
How to Choose the Right TV Console
With so many options on the market, picking a console that works for your room can feel overwhelming. Here is a quick breakdown of the factors that matter most.
Get the Size Right
A TV console should always be a few inches wider than your television on both sides. This creates a balanced, stable look and prevents the screen from visually overwhelming the furniture beneath it. Measure your TV's width and your available wall space before you start shopping. For reference, a 55-inch TV is roughly 122 cm wide, so a console of at least 140 cm gives you comfortable breathing room on each side.
Pick the Right Storage Type
The best TV console with storage depends on what you need to stash away. Here is how the main options compare:
|
Storage Type |
Best For |
Things to Consider |
|
Open shelving |
Set-top boxes, game consoles, decor display |
Good airflow for electronics but dust collects faster |
|
Drawers |
Remotes, cables, manuals, small items |
Keeps clutter hidden; look for soft-close mechanisms |
|
Closed cabinet doors |
Routers, media players, board games |
Cleanest look; check for cable cutouts at the back |
|
Sliding doors |
Tight spaces where swing doors are not practical |
Space-saving; ideal for smaller HDB living rooms |
Many of our consoles combine two or more of these storage types, so you do not have to pick just one. The Nori TV Console, for example, pairs sliding doors with open compartments, making it a great fit for smaller living rooms that still need a mix of display and hidden storage.
Choose a Material That Suits Your Style
Material affects both the look and durability of your TV console cabinet. Here is what we offer:

TV Console Sizing Guide by Screen Size

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ideal height for a TV console?
The centre of your TV screen should sit roughly at eye level when you are seated on your sofa. For most setups, this means the top surface of the console should be between 50 cm and 70 cm from the floor. If you have a low-profile sofa, go for the lower end; a higher sofa pairs better with a taller console like the Yina Rattan High TV Console.
How much weight can an IUIGA TV console hold?
Weight capacity differs by model and material. Each product page lists the specific load limit for that console. As a general guide, our solid wood models tend to support the most weight, making them a reliable choice for larger, heavier screens.
How do I keep cables tidy behind my TV console?
Most of our TV console cabinets include cable management cutouts at the back panel. These allow you to route power cords, HDMI cables and other wires through the back of the unit, keeping them out of sight. For extra neatness, use cable ties or adhesive clips to bundle wires together before threading them through.
Which TV console works best for a small HDB living room?
Look for a compact model in the 120 cm to 150 cm range with sliding doors instead of swing-out doors, since sliding mechanisms do not require extra clearance space in front. A wall-hugging design with built-in cable management will also help keep your floor area feeling open.
What is the difference between a TV console and a TV cabinet?
A TV console is typically a low, wide unit designed to sit beneath a mounted or freestanding TV. A TV cabinet usually refers to a piece with fully enclosed storage, including doors that cover the front. At IUIGA, many of our consoles combine both open and closed sections, so you get the best of both styles.
Do IUIGA TV consoles come assembled?
Assembly requirements vary by product. Some consoles arrive fully assembled, while others require minor setup such as attaching legs or handles. Specific assembly details are listed on each product page under delivery information.
Can I use a TV console as a sideboard or general storage unit?
Absolutely. Many of our customers use their TV consoles as display units in hallways or as storage in the dining area. If you are looking for dedicated general storage, you might also want to browse our bookshelves and cabinets collection for taller options.
