Home Theater Furniture

How do I choose the design that is best for me?
BDI Home Theater Furniture designs are available in a variety of styles and sizes to fit most applications.

For personalized sales assistance, please visit your nearest who is best equipped to discuss the BDI options that are available to you.

How much weight will a specific model hold?
Each model’s Web page lists BDI’s recommended TV size range and weight capacities; these are somewhat conservative guidelines. With TVs, you generally want to consider the aesthetics of the TV on the stand to see if the unit looks “right” before you worry about the weight. That is, if the desired TV appears top-heavy, or overhangs on each side of the stand, we recommended that you consider a larger-size BDI model. BDI models are sized to accommodate most A/V components (DVD player, A/V Receiver, etc.). Refer to the listed frame opening, shelf depth and shelf capacity to determine if the BDI stand you are considering will accommodate your system. Please contact a BDI Dealer for more detailed product specifications.

If one of your shelves arrives cracked, chipped or otherwise damaged, please contact the Dealer from whom you purchased the product. Please be aware of the prevailing industry standard with regards to scratches and minor imperfections in commercial glass: If the imperfection is not visible to the naked eye from three feet away in regular lighting conditions, then it is considered acceptable.

Can I purchase an additional shelf for my BDI stand?
If you would like to purchase an additional shelf for a BDI stand, please send an email to BDI at . Please specify the exact style and model that you have. We cannot always accommodate these requests, but we will do our best to meet your need.
