Page 40 - TV Cabinets

While parents often go above and beyond when it comes to safety devices on electrical outlets and child-proof locks on cabinets, often times they neglect to remember one of the most dangerous parts of their homes: the TV.

According to a study by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, 134 children died between 2000 and 2006 as a direct result of furniture and televisions falling on them. Another report by the Center for Injury Research and Policy, part of the Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, found that 264,200 children were injured between 1990 and 2007 due to furniture and television mishaps. Lara McKenzie, one of the study’s authors, said in a recent interview that injuries increased 40 percent over the study period and about half the injuries involved televisions.

So why is there a rise in activity? Is it because of the parents, or is it the TVs? In many cases, the rise is attributed to families replacing older televisions with lighter, flat-screen models that can

Recently I Googled TV lifts and found many different options. Perhaps the most surprising was the one listed under “Home Automations” offering instruction on how to “build a pop-up TV lift cabinet using an off-the-shelf dresser drawers and an off-the-shelf pop up TV lift kit in about 3 hours, all for only $500.”

Don’t get me wrong; I’m all for the DIY trend and on smaller, less important projects; I might fully endorse such an undertaking.

However, most people who would consider an automated TV lift also enjoy watching their TV; and in order to watch it, it needs to work, right? Imagine, after your 3-hour “sweat equity” investment (not to mention whatever you invested in the dresser and your pricey plasma TV), your home automation project comes crashing down, TV and all, because the online instruction omitted a crucial step?

Why put yourself through the agony?

Today, we are all asked to juggle multiple responsibilities – at work and at home - simultaneously. At work, we call it “cross-training”; at home and in our personal lives, we call it “multitasking.” Whatever YOU call it, it means that more is asked – and expected – of you than ever before. So, why shouldn’t we ask our furniture to do the same?

Consider your television. In the past, your television served as an “entertainment vehicle” for children, sports fanatics and do-it-yourself gurus. However, when the TV was idle, it did nothing…simply another “dust catcher” in the living room, bedroom or kitchen, waiting for its next “turn at bat.” Now, your television can “disappear” when not in use, and in its place, an exquisite, hand-crafted armoire, console or buffet can appear!

How is this possible?

Today, multitasking is not limited to humans! Even your furniture can play multiple roles in your daily life, thanks to state-of-the-art TV lifts.
