Created by designer
Ehlen Johansson, the Friel is truly a modern masterpiece that is the
perfect stand for your high definition TV. The colour of the unit is
silvery white with a modern chic designed that would suit a variety of
homes. With a whopping width of

medium to large LCD or Plasma televisions.

Installation
The installation of the Friel was a breeze
and within 30 minutes, the stand was fully assembled and we had our
glorious Philips 40" Plasma TV seated on the unit.
It should be noted
that the Friel comes in two boxes with all the parts carefully labelled
in a manual that is written in basic English. Finding it a little
difficult? IKEA have a professional available for those a little scared
to invest their $2,000 dollar plus TV on their own skills.
The only drawback of the installation is
the weight of the Friel with the packaging which weighs a whopping 125kg
so you definitely need some assistance in getting this item to the home.
With generous storage space, the Friel is
perfect for the tidy conscious person who wishes to hide those unsightly
cords and what better way than the Friel.
Simply pull down the doors and
your DVD or console is tucked away, out of sight and out of mind. My
favourite aspect of the Friel were the tall legs as our home has tiles,
this makes for easy cleaning.
