JANTAR TV unit, 2 doors, 140 cm, on metal legs

JANTAR TV unit 140 cm: short and light

The shortest unit the collection offers. A pair of doors split by the decorative band, slim dark supports underneath. At 140 by 52 it claims very little floor, and lifting the body clear of the tiles makes it read lighter still.

Parts and fittings

• a pair of doors, one closed bay behind each
• the dividing band, offered four ways
• a sunken dark groove doing the work of handles
• supports of matt black steel
• softened corner profiles
• an uninterrupted panel across the top

Who it suits

A small living room or a bedroom, where the television is not the main character. Rented homes: 140 cm goes easily into a lift and through doorways. And as a second piece in a room that already holds a long JANTAR chest, when the TV unit should not compete with it.

Size and what fits

140 cm long, 52 cm deep, 52 cm high. Of the three units in the collection this is the only one that fits a room under fifteen square metres without taking the whole wall. Two compartments of roughly seventy centimetres: one for equipment, the other for boxes and cables. On top, a screen of almost any common diagonal up to 65 inches fits.

Where to put it

A door needs about seventy centimetres sideways, and on a short unit that tells more than on a long one, since there is less free space around. No cable cut outs are visible in the factory images, so plan to take the cables out at the back.

A short unit saves the day in a room where the television stands in a corner or beside a window: a long one simply will not go there, while this one does. The two compartments shut away exactly what belongs out of sight near a screen, and nothing surplus appears in the room.
