10 Media Consoles That Bring Stylish Storage to Tiny Living Rooms

There are reasons the Torme media unit gets editors' stamp of approval. We love its clean lines, rounded legs, and Scandi-inspired simplicity, for one. It features two adjustable shelves and cable cut-outs to conceal all your cords — all hidden behind soft-close cabinet doors for an ultra-sleek look. It’s also available in three widths, so there’s an option for spaces of every size.

This Danish-inspired design is cool and understated with its slightly recessed frame and ornament-free design. It puts the beautiful oak finish on full display! Measuring 68 inches wide, it’s one of the larger pieces on this list, but it might replace a shelf or two with its ample interior storage space.

The curved edges on this Better Homes & Gardens TV stand make it look so much more expensive. It’s 68 inches wide and only 16 inches deep, so it’s pretty small-space-friendly. And you’re getting heaps of storage: There’s an open shelf up top (with cable cut-outs!) and two closed cabinets underneath for everything you’d rather keep out of sight.

Looking for something with a low profile? Consider the Arcadia. It’s 19.5 inches tall, so it would be perfect opposite a lower sofa. It doesn’t skimp on storage space, either. There are three smooth-gliding drawers and a spacious shelf for tech and decor.

This Wayfair sideboard moonlights as a space-saving media console with its plentiful interior storage, adjustable shelves, and cable management cutouts. But my favorite thing about it is the fluted sliding door front: The textured exterior gives the piece a high-end look, while the sliding mechanism really comes in handy in a narrow living room that doesn't have the clearance for cabinet doors.

Article packed so much style into this petitely proportioned media console. The white oak finish won’t visually weigh down a tiny living space, while the tapered legs and gently curved drawer pulls give it quiet Scandinavian flair. It’s only 42 inches wide, so it can be styled against shorter walls, too.

This 72-inch-wide media console has a traditional look with its rich dark-brown finish and wainscot detailing. (It also comes in a vintage white and natural wood finish if you prefer a coastal or farmhouse vibe.) Behind its double cabinet doors, you’ll find two adjustable shelves with plenty of space for board games, DVDs, and so much more.

The Pierce media console is perfect for anyone who prefers a modern, industrial aesthetic. It has a metal frame that contrasts beautifully against its blonde wood finish. Even more importantly, it has sliding cabinet doors that make it easy to access all the storage inside, especially in a cramped living room. You can style all sorts of tchotchkes on its open display shelf, too.

Beautiful’s TV stand is hard to beat for just over $200. The fluted sliding doors give the otherwise pared-down silhouette instant visual interest, and make it look surprisingly high-end. It’s also only 60 inches wide, which means it’ll fit into most apartments without any issues.

Like the majority of Cozey’s pieces, the Stella media unit is modular, which means you can essentially add or remove pieces to create a custom-looking piece that works for your space and needs. Choose between closed cabinets or open shelf units, select your desired finish, and voila! You’ve got a modern media console tailor-made for your living room.
