How Long Should A Plasma TV Last And How To Make It Work In Your Interior Theme

The general estimate on how long should a plasm TV last is about 100,000 hours. All in all, this accounts for long decades of usage, so once you get a brand new plasma TV, you can relax for a very long time — with moderate usage, there is a chance that your grandchildren will watch it, too. Sure, technology is developing so rapidly these days, that you will probably want to replace it with something new long before the plasma TV starts malfunctioning. So, the most reasonable question while shopping for a new TV should be not how long should a plasma TV last, but rather how to make it work in your living room  interior for as long as possible. And here are some universal suggestions that will help you come up with a decoration plan that will stay relevant for a very long time:

Draw attention to the TV stand

Given the rapid development of technology, it is wiser to draw attention to furniture rather than to plasma TV. The first one at least does not undergo through such a rapid series of changes and stays more or less neutral. Sure, there are a lot of eye catching designs based on rather temporary trends, but at the same time, there are plenty of truly timeless decoration solutions — for example, a combination of genuine wood and glass.

Stick to neutral interior materials

All in all, if you would like your interior decoration picture to last, it is better to stick to classic decoration materials. Genuine wood is definitely one of the best examples. Sure, MDF in wood effect is a way more affordable option but it does not have what it takes to look good as new for several years. If you are not fond of redecorating every five years, always stick to the classics.

Do not choose excessively bright colours

Basically the same goes for choosing your colour palette. Stick to neutral solutions — beige, taupe, white, black. If you choose wooden furniture, choose in favour of natural wood shades rather than shiny finishes — this is the only way to ensure that not only our plasma TV, but your entire living room interior will last.

Do not compromise on quality

And, of course, always choose in favour of quality solutions. No doubt, they generally cost more; yet, in the long run, the price will be worth it — after all, replacing lower quality furniture every couple of years is more expensive in the long term.
