**Short answer:** Enter your seating distance, wall space and furniture: the finder checks **every TV in our catalogue** against each model's **spec-sheet width, height, stand span, depth and weight**, and says why the rest don't fit. Copy the link to share your results.

## Key takeaways

- **Size** comes from your seating distance: 30–40° of your view (relaxed to immersive).
- **Furniture** must take the stand's span + 4 in and its depth + 1 in, not the TV's full width.
- **Height:** the finder flags TVs whose screen center would sit more than 6 in above your eye height.
- New models appear here automatically as we add their spec sheets to the catalogue.

Every field is optional: fill in what you know, and the list narrows as you type. The checks use the same rules as our [size calculator](/tv-size-viewing-distance/) and [stand guides](/tv-stands/65-inch-tv/).

(Interactive finder on the web page: it checks every TV in our catalogue (59 models) against your seating distance, wall space and furniture. The same data is in the TV spec database: https://specwiseguide.com/tv-models/)

## What the finder checks

| Check | Rule | From the spec sheet |
|---|---|---|
| **Size for your seat** | Fits if the screen fills 30–40° of your view; flagged at 25–30° or 40–45°; left out beyond | Measured screen diagonal |
| **Wall width and height** | TV + 1 in each side (on a stand, its height *with* the stand) | Width, height, height with stand |
| **Furniture width** | Pedestal or feet span + 2 in each side | Stand width and type |
| **Furniture depth** | Stand depth + 1 in | Depth with stand |
| **Weight** | TV on its stand (furniture) or without it (wall mount) within your rating | Weights with and without stand |
| **Eye level** | Screen center vs your seated eye height; flagged if more than 6 in above | Height with and without stand |

Where a sheet doesn't give a number (several brands don't publish stand widths), the finder keeps the TV but marks the check "not published", so you know to measure before you buy.

## Measuring your space

1. **Seating distance:** from your eyes in your usual seat to the wall where the screen will be.
2. **Eye height:** seated, from the floor to your eyes. About 40 in on a typical sofa; lower on a low couch, higher in bed.
3. **Wall:** the clear width and height, between windows, doors, shelves or a mantel.
4. **Furniture:** the top's usable width and depth, its height from the floor, and its weight rating from the manufacturer.

## Safety

If the TV stands on furniture, **strap it to the wall** and anchor the furniture too. The CPSC estimates about 17,800 emergency-room visits a year from tip-overs of furniture, TVs and appliances. On a wall, use a mount rated above the TV's weight, lagged into studs ([how to choose a mount](/tv-wall-mount-types/)).

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I know if a TV will fit my TV stand?

Compare the stand's footprint, not the TV's width: the furniture top should be at least the TV's pedestal or feet span plus 2 in each side, and at least the stand's depth plus 1 in. The finder does this for every model; the TV can overhang the furniture if it stands on a center pedestal.

### Can a TV be wider than the TV stand?

Yes, if its stand (pedestal or feet) fits on the top with room to spare and the furniture is stable and rated for the weight. TVs with feet near the ends need furniture nearly as wide as the TV.

### How much wall space do I need for a TV?

The TV's width and height plus about 1 in on each side, more if you want a frame of wall around it. A 65-inch TV is about 57 in wide and 33 in tall; an 85-inch about 74 × 43 in.

### What size TV fits my room?

The one that fills 30–40° of your view from where you sit: screen diagonal ≈ distance in inches ÷ 1.6 (relaxed) to ÷ 1.2 (immersive). Enter your distance above to see which models qualify.

### Why is a TV missing from the results?

Either it doesn't pass one of your checks (the summary says which, and how many TVs each check removed), or it isn't in our catalogue yet. We add models as we read their spec sheets.
