Asghar Furniture provides a variety of media units, from the sleekest hovering consoles to traditional wooden staging, to fit all lifestyles and designs in the UAE. Their designs are quality-conscious, intelligent, and well integrated.
To enhance your in-store experience, particularly in a city like Dubai, where aesthetics and utility are intertwined. Here are seven practical, expert-approved tips to help your upcoming furniture store trip.
1. Why Your TV Unit Matters
- Storage and space: A good TV cabinet allows organization of the TV console, remote controls, and media accessories.
- Visual anchor: Newly trimmed mid-century wood or cool modern laminate frames the TV and creates a statement wall.
- Cable management: Ports and drawers are accessible in-built, giving it a clean appearance.
- Durability of materials: The materials chosen by Asghar, along with their application of 18 mm MDF, laminate, and careful hardware, will provide a long-lasting experience.
A properly installed TV unit can transform the chaos of wires and clutter into a highly edited collection of artifacts, elevating your living room to a new style level. Even a single good unit can significantly affect how large your room feels and help you balance the space, inspiring a more stylish and functional living room.
2. Key Design Considerations Before Buying
Before choosing a unit, evaluate the following:
- Size and height of the TV set: The dimensions should be at least 10cm larger than the television screen; the height above the ground should be high enough to provide an easy viewing position when sitting.
- Room style: Choose a modern minimalist or mid-century cozy, rustic comfort, or sleek floating style.
- Storage requirements: Do you require shelving that is concealed, open display, drawers, or a combination?
- Room design: Pay attention to space in the context of sideboards, room’s entrance or lounge seating, particularly in case of wall-mounted pieces.
Those dimensions, materials, and drawer configurations are evident in the pages of their products when shopping with Asghar Furniture, making it easier to make informed decisions.
The lighting condition and color of the room should also be taken into consideration. Rooms with less generated light could use lighter wood units or a white-finished unit, which makes the room reflect more light.

5. Practical Buying Tips
Size First
Find out the width of the TV and make sure the unit is protruding at least 10 cm on either side. Viewing distance is comfortable, usually between 45 and 50 cms from the screen center.
Material Matters
Asghar units are made using 18 mm MDF, typically with laminates or white mat. Firm up moisture-resistant surfaces where they are used, such as AC vents or high traffic areas.
Storage Balance
This is key:
- Need hidden space? Choose units with sliding doors and concealed drawers.
- Prefer open display for décor or shelves? Modern Media or floating consoles work well.
- Want a combination? Modern Contemporary balances both.
Cable Management
Please make sure the unit has cable openings, back gaps, or draw tracks; having them in the Asghar models creates a finished look.
Also, do not ignore floor clearance, particularly when you intend to vacuum or clean underneath frequently.
6. Styling Around Your TV Unit
- Design symmetry: Balance larger pieces with similar pieces of tables on either side, or use similar benches.
- Wall décor: Place shelving, pictures, and a TV above the units themselves, creating a perfect combination with a floating console set up.
- Lighting: Try uplighting or LED strips behind the unit to add visual depth and evening ambiance.
- Rugs and seating: Rugs around the TV for seating and to create a harmonious look. Place your rugs parallel to your console.
As well, small indoor plants or low-profile sculptures can be added to the top of the unit. Prevent excess decoration by using fewer objects to create a streamlined look.
- Look for more than just deals.
- Repairs or replacements for a cheap piece made of subpar material may ultimately prove more costly.
Choose store-wide sales or package deals instead, which let you buy several complementary items (like a sofa, TV, and side tables) at a lower total cost.
7. Maintenance & Longevity Tips
- Dust surfaces weekly, especially open shelving and media compartments.
- Clean laminate fronts with a microfiber cloth and mild detergent; avoid harsh abrasives.
- Check hardware quarterly, including drawer gliders and sliding door tracks, to prevent misalignment.
- Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to preserve finishes and colours.
- Use coasters or protective pads under speakers and décor, and minimise moisture near electronic components.
Real Benefits You Can Expect
- Cleaner floors and fewer visible cables.
- Easier access to media accessories and devices.
- Improved ergonomics and viewing comfort.
- A polished focal area that enhances room symmetry and style.
These minor upgrades significantly improve both visual flow and daily function.
