#Tips for Incorporating a Kitchen TV - Better Homes and Gardens.

Purposeful Placement

Take the TV size and how you plan to watch it into consideration when you are deciding where to place a television within your kitchen. If you're planning to install a small TV to catch a few minutes of the news while you're drinking your morning coffee or making dinner, consider placing the TV beneath a bank of upper cabinets. near the main kitchen work core. If the TV's primary purpose is to keep kids occupied and close by while you cook, consider a slightly larger TV near a breakfast nook or banquette, which will give kids a place away from the kitchen work core but still within view.

Height Matters

Review all of the places you'll want to be able to see the TV from in your kitchen. A higher location will make the TV visible from more points within the room. If you're tucking the television inside a cabinet, pivoting pocket doors that slide inside the cabinet won't block views. Also consider a kitchen TV cabinet as a depot for other technology, such as a wireless router or cable box, which will conceal all those black boxes.
