Mid-Century Modern TV Stand vs AsterOutdoor Retro TV Stand

Both are mid-century styled stands for TVs up to 65 inches, but they are built differently. The Plank+Beam stand uses solid pine with slatted push-to-open doors and adjustable shelves; owners call it sturdy and easy to assemble, though some say it sits low. The AsterOutdoor stand is taller and uses metal and wood with open shelves and two cabinet doors; its rating is high but rests on far fewer reviews. Pick the Plank+Beam for proven build and adjustability, the AsterOutdoor for height and open display space.

• Choose the Plank+Beam stand if you want solid pine construction, adjustable shelving and doors that hide clutter, and you don't mind a lower profile.
• Choose the AsterOutdoor stand if you want a taller console with open shelves for display and a darker espresso finish.
