Only because they made the stand that wide ๐
because the TV is that wide.
not sure what you expect them to do about it.
TVs were like this for years.... https://www.lg.com/us/business/hospital-tvs/lg-26LD360L
Center-mount stands have been around for years, and were the standard for a very long time. If made well, they work for very large TVs.
They're doing this to cheap out on manufacturing, nothing more. Don't give them a pass for it.
This is a TCL TV. It is a budget TV. Of course, they're going to make it as cheap as possible, otherwise it wouldn't be a budget TV.
Frankly I doubt this TV is more than $150 USD when NOT on sale. Surely not over $200.
I don't mean to be offensive about any of it. It is perfectly fine to buy a TV within your budget but this definitely fits within the expectation of this kind of TV.
It is also very likely not going to have Roku support 5 years past the model's initial manufacture date either.
There should be absolutely no surprises here.
Center stands are more expensive, buy an expensive TV and you'll get one, buy a cheap TV and lose the privilege to complain.
I have a 2014 TV that has a center mount, I had no idea newer ones didn't. I double checked the instruction manual just to be sure we haven't been slowly fucking something up, but the installation mentions nothing about making sure that the table is a minimum size.
The cheap ones don't have them anymore. It's a cost saving measure. There's nothing wrong with it.
A wider base footprint is inherently more stable.
