Imagine the family gathering around a crackling fireplace that emits a warm glow while watching a movie for everyone to enjoy. This scene occurs quite frequently in many of homes.
However, with the increase in apartment and townhouse style living in recent years, the possibility of having the traditional fireplace with the television mounted above the mantle has decreased just as fast.
Well, necessity is truly the mother of invention. Modern technology has made it possible to have your cake and eat it too.
The Crystal TV stand features a cherry finish with four spacious shelving units for DVD players, DVRs, gaming consoles, DVDs and other entertainment devices.
Why should those without a chimney have to sacrifice both the warmth and comfort of having a fireplace and television in the same central location?
As an added bonus, the electric fireplace can be removed during warmer months to be replaced with shelving units that can house decorative accent pieces or support that ever-growing collection of movies.
You won’t find it so easy to remove an actual mantle for the summer. It seems like apartment dwellers and those without chimneys just got a leg up on the others. Try not to rub it in as you enjoy the warmth without the hassle of maintaining a wood-burning fire.
