How big is the viewable area and can it be placed beneath a TV?

Viewable area is same as mentioned in the dimensions. I place mine under the projector screen. It is not a primary source of heating but more for ornamental.

Viewing area is about 41" x 9". Don't know why you couldn't install it under a TV. The heat blows out from the front of the fireplace.

We love it!The viewing area is 41 inches wide and 9 1/2 tall. And yes we have it below our tv. I kept it about 15" below the tv

Viewing area is 9.5 by 41.5. The entire face is 50 by 19.75. I believ the directions recommend a 3 ft minimum clearance from flamables but you can download the manual online to double check. Plasmas are more susceptible to heat damage since they contain neon or xenon gas. That said, since it is a front blower, I am currently installing my 60 inch plasma 18 inches above the fireplace. I got distracted with other projects so have not yet hooked up the electrical to say first hand if this is an issue, but I am not thinking it will be.

The "viewable area" is 50 inches wide, and 20 inches from top to bottom. Yes it can be placed beneath TV if installed properly.

The 50" measurement is the actual entire width of the front glass straight across (not a diagonal measurement like TV's). The glass front is also 20" tall. The black border around the front glass is 4" wide on either side and 5" on the top and bottom, so the actual "viewable" "fire" area is 42" x 10" (clear part of the glass front). The heat vents on this one are on the front face (top) so I imagine you could easily mount it under a TV. I installed it myself in our front sitting room and recessed it into the wall by framing it out after cutting out the drywall and a few studs. When it is recessed in the wall it only sticks out between 2"-3" inches, if you hang it on the wall with the included mounting bracket I think it sticks out from the wall at least 5"-7" inches and then you also have to deal with the ugly cord hanging down. Framing it out in the wall and hardwiring it if possible is the way to go IMO. Hopefully this helped, it's a pretty nice quality piece.

The viewable area is nearly the size of the entire Unit. Yes, we had our Fireplace mounted under a our Bedroom TV. It was very cozy during this long winter. You won't be disappointed with this Unit.

Hi Ken, I have mine mounted below my 55" Samsung. Looks great. The viewing area is very large. There is approximately a 2 1/2" border around the perimeter. I am very pleased with it. When needed the heater works wonderfully. My bedroom is 16' X 14' and it warms it up no problem. The ability to mix and change the colors is also great. I really enjoy this fireplace. No regrets at all. Colleen

It is one large space inside but it is not very deep. My dvr cable box doesn't come anywhere close to fitting inside

Yes -- the part that goes on the back of the TV is on the left hand side in the picture. It's about 5" square and it screws in in the middle of the back of the TV. It doesn't obstruct the input/output at the bottom of the TV like larger ones do. Make sure you screw it into a stud.

It's very short - like 2 feet. You won't be able to really see your TV if you're laying down. This is better for a living room where it's far from where you're sitting.

Without using a tape measure, I'd say it is about 5 inches tall. We set two 2 x 4's flat under our tv stand and that works perfectly. Our tv is on a large corner mantle so the bar actually hides the 2 x 4's. The tv is well supported and sits high enough not to block the remote signal. Hope that helps you.

Sandy I have mine in an open space but the horizontal dimension is listed at 36.4 inches. It is an exceptionally good TV but it may not fit in that 32 inch space!

If i remember correctly it is around 12" or so. I used it behind a big screen TV to add more devices so it is not visible right now. It wasn't very long at all.

I have the ATT Uverse box under this stand, but have the tv on top of it. The opening under the box is 19" wide, 3.5" tall and 11" deep, however depth doesn't really matter if you have the stand on a larger table, whatever you put under the stand can stick out in the front or back. I don't know how big a playstation is or how you intend to put a tv on the stand also or not. Hopefully this helps. If you cable box and play station together are not more than 19" wide, they can both go under the stand and put the tv on top.

I don't have one behind a TV; however, the one that is mounted behind my refrigerator is clearly visible as long as you have an unobstructed line of vision. I think it would also be visible behind your TV.

No, it's 4" high, 15 3/4" wide, 11 3/4" deep. The important thing is the width underneath if you want to put your cable box under it. That would be close to 11 5/8" wide under there.

The TV platform is 12"x 12". I have a Dell Inspiron laptop on it and it almost fills the space. The laptop does not weigh all that much so the footprint is minimal. Overall, it's very sturdy.

yes it has ample room for even a larger tv. make sure you have room between your eyes and the screen. for that size at least 5-6 feet from where you view.

It's pretty close. We pushed it to the wall this year for our Christmas tree and it was concealed for the most part. The TV is large so you can only do so much for it.

The shelf unit is not very wide and therfore would most likely not be big enough to put a tv on.

4.25 inches clearance. My Bose center channel fits perfectly underneath it. If you are putting a TV on it, I wouldn't go larger than a 32" tv.

The TV is quite small (you can see the dimensions).. I believe it's only about 11 or 12 inches wide. The only issue is the power plug runs into the left hand side (when looking at the TV), so you'll need to make sure you have the clearance.
