Is it a case of budget (she wants cheap) or does she not think you need a stand for it?

just a difference in opinion on style

by the way, i mean the cabinet/stand thingy that the telly actually stands on

what particular stores are good for buying decent cabiner/stand thingies?

Most of the online AV retailers carry a wide selection of stands. It's just a case of looking through them and seeing what type is best for where the TV will be spending it's lifetime.

Is it safe to have a 42 inch or bigger on a flat platform when there are toddlers around (i.e. are they easy enough to topple over or shove off the end), or is it simply safer to have them mounted, or use a stand with a mount?

Here's a good site for stands http://www.standanddeliver.com/

Also there's an WHF ultimate guide to tv's coming out in June (5th) http://whathifi.co.uk/forums/t/11719.aspx

Im want to get a stand soon with the mount for my 42"plasma like this http://www.standanddeliver.com/acatalog/Atacama_Equinox_AVI.html . Im going to wait for the ultimate guide before I make my mind up though.

A toddler running at sufficient speed would have enough momentum to topple most HDTVs I think... but a toddler just standing and pushing would struggle I reckon (unless they were aiming for a career in body building at a young age!)

Thanks professorhat, I've still not decided on size for a new HDTV yet, so I'll maybe go in to Comet and push some around

can def recommend stand and deliver used a couple of times - fast and efficient - can also recommend peter tyson for atacama stuff - next day delivery included - great service. I have the equinox avi great stand would def recommend the screen swivel is fantastic
