Can I sit a flat screen tv on top of this fireplace?

I never thought about it, but the dimensions on the top are 361/2 inches long and 12 inches deep ........I guess it would depend upon the size of the base of the tv .....there is some heat that you can feel coming from the top of the glass, so if the base protruded over the edge it would be questionable for me.. I hope that helped in making your decision!

Depends on where you have it installed and how big your flat screen is. I personally wouldn't put one on top of mine because it isn't against a wall.

If it were small enough- maybe. No bigger than a 32". And if someone were to bump the fireplace, the TV would fall. It's not very wide and not very heavy, so easy to make it rock

Size of the top was an issue for me too. I suggest that you get some cardboard and a tape measure and create a mock up of the fireplace. This is the only way to be sure. Too many variables to say yes for sure.

I would say yes, if the tv is not too big. It would be unbalanced and unattractive if too large. The top of the fireplace is roughly 3' wide, it is level and stable but mine is also leaning against the wall. It would not be too hot for the TV, I run mine not continually. It doesn't overheat the wall or the fireplace. I have a large, heavy mirror on mine, and framed pictures and some brass pieces. It is fine. holding its shape. hope this helps.

If you're asking if you can put the tv directly on top of the sounds bar, no. The sound bar is not a suitable stand. You would probably have better luck mounting the sound bar above the tv.

I would not put a TV on it. I think it would sag pretty quickly unless the TV was very small and/or lightweight.

I wouldn't have your tv close to the fireplace. It will destroy the mechanisms of the tv. Anyway, I have a 46 inch tv and it swings 26 inches left and right when it's pulled all the way out.

Depends...if you dont plan on using fire place, i would check temperatures above fireplace when lit, check with safety codes for placement of items above fire place and would check to make sure there are studs located abovefire place for mounting.

Love this cabinet but I would not try to put that size tv on it, you will not have enough room for any cable boxes to sit beside it and would be afraid the tv would be to top heavy. Our tv is a 37" flat screen. Was also a bit hard to put together, but as I said it works great for us and we love the look.

I agree with all 4 of the excellent answers already given and really have nothing more to add.....except we just bought a large flat screen tv and needed a media unit to put it on and I fell in love with a fireplace one and then realized that I love my dimplex fireplace so much I couldn't part with it and especially because of the mantel and if I bought a media unit with fireplace I would have no mantel because the tv would cover the whole top of the unit.

I have no clue what the weight limit is, but I would feel comfortable putting a flat screen on it. Having said that, it's not the sturdiest piece of furniture out there, but as long as you're not moving it around a lot with the TV on it, you should be fine.

It would depend on the weight, but this piece is pretty sturdy, especially because it's skinny. I wouldn't have second thoughts on putting a tv on top.

If you put the TV on the base you can swival it with just that. I need the space for a box to run my TV.

I think it will fit just fine - might look a little funny though because it would be very low for such a wide screen - but I tend to prefer to have my tv a bit higher than other people - my 46" is on a shelf that is at least 1 foot higher than the fireplace. However, I would worry more about stability in terms of the fireplace moving! Mine moves very smoothly & easily on its casters, so a little jolt may send your tv to the floor!

This is exactly what we did and it works fine. As long as your components fit of course. We have it next to fireplace where tv is mounted. We are happy with it.

The inside measurements are 15.5"L x 28"W (the width being 28").. so no, you couldn't put a TV inside of it. The top of the cabinet is 17"L x 29-5/8"W, though. So you might be able to put it on top (providing it could support the weight of the TV).

I definitely would not. Doesn't seem sturdy enough. I wouldn't put anything larger than a 20" flat screen. We just have candles and picture frames on ours.

you probable could as long as it was not really big we hung ours above our fireplace with a moving wall mount

Anything is possible .... but I wouldn't try it myself. It is designed to mount on a wall, which you would have to provide in the opening of your fireplace. There are better options out there, which I have used, that sit inside your opening like gas logs would sit. You just set them in place and plug them in and operate them with a remote. You can even add glass screens in front of them to give a real decorative look.

The tv just is placed on the stand . I guess you could scre it dome if you wanted . I don't think you need to .
