Overview
A coastal TV unit in acacia & engineered wood, Brushed Smoke finish
The Nelson TV Unit is built from a blend of solid acacia wood and high-quality engineered wood, finished in the Nelson range’s signature Brushed Smoke tone — a soft, weathered light-brown-and-cream finish that is lighter and more washed-out than typical acacia, giving it a coastal, beach-house feel rather than the warmer, earthier character of standard timber. Two open shelves sit across the top, split by a central divider, each with an oval cable-management cutout at the back so a soundbar, console or streaming box can stay on display with the cables tucked out of sight. Three handle-less drawers run along the bottom for concealed storage, keeping the clean rectangular silhouette free of visible hardware.
Acacia & Engineered Wood Build
Solid acacia panels are paired with engineered wood for dimensional stability, so the piece resists warping over years of regular use while still showing the natural grain and knots that make every unit slightly different.
Two Open Shelves with Cable Cutouts
A central divider splits the top into two open bays, each with an oval cable-management cutout on the back panel — media devices stay visible and ventilated with cables routed cleanly out of sight.
Three Handle-Less Drawers
Three drawers span the bottom for concealed storage of remotes, cables and everyday clutter — clean, handle-less fronts let the timber grain do the styling work.

Will your TV fit?
Sizing your television to a 170 cm unit
The usual guidance is to leave around 20 cm of unit wider than the television — roughly 10 cm each side — so the screen looks balanced and the feet or pedestal sit safely on the top rather than near the edge. On a 170 cm unit that puts the comfortable ceiling at about a 60″ screen.
The Nelson’s fit: at 170 cm wide, comfortably suits a TV up to 60″, rated to approximately 30 kg as a conservative guideline.
- Recommended maximum
- A television up to 60″
- Top surface
- 170 cm wide × 45 cm deep
- Weight guideline
- Up to approx. 30 kg on the top
- Height to screen
- Top sits 58 cm off the floor
These are guidelines, not tested specifications. A larger screen can still work if it is lighter than the weight guideline and its feet or pedestal sit fully within the 170 × 45 cm top — measure the distance between your television’s feet before ordering, as this varies a lot between brands. Whichever limit is lower is the one that applies, and a wall-mounted television removes the question entirely. Always secure your television with an anchor device.
At 58 cm high, the Nelson sits noticeably taller than a lowline TV unit — more of an elevated stand than a low media console, so check it against your sofa’s seat height and sightlines before ordering, especially in a room where the seating is close to the screen. Check the leg spacing and overall footprint of this unit against your television’s own specification sheet too. Not sure? Call us on 07 3161 5415, or read our TV unit size guide.

Storage layout
Two cable-tidy shelves and three handle-less drawers
The storage layout splits across two zones. Two open upper shelves, separated by a central divider, each have an oval cable-management cutout on the back panel — a soundbar, games console or streaming box can sit on display with its cables routed cleanly out of sight. Below, three handle-less drawers run the width of the unit for anything you would rather not have on show: remotes, chargers, spare cables and general clutter.
- Open shelves
- 2 — split by a central divider, each with a cable cutout
- Drawers
- 3 — across the bottom, handle-less fronts
- Hardware
- None visible — clean handle-less drawer fronts
Internal shelf and drawer measurements and shelf weight capacities are not published on the specification sheet for this model — we have not estimated them here. If you need a specific device or console to fit, call 07 3161 5415 and our showroom team will measure the actual unit.
Safety
Anchor the television — it matters
Entertainment units are covered by Australia’s mandatory toppling-furniture information standard at any height, because a television is heavy, top-sitting and tempting for a child to pull on. Anchoring hardware is inexpensive, sold at any hardware store, and takes only minutes to fit.
- ALWAYS secure your television with an anchor device.
- NEVER allow children to stand, climb or hang on drawers, doors, or shelves.
Anchoring hardware is inexpensive and takes only minutes to fit. If you’re unsure how to anchor your television or this unit, our showroom team can help — call 07 3161 5415.

Caring for your solid-timber TV unit
Dust regularly
Wipe the top, drawer fronts, shelves and frame weekly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to lift dust before it settles into the grain.
Wipe spills promptly
Wipe spills as soon as they happen with a slightly damp cloth, then dry the area immediately — standing moisture is the one thing that will mark timber and engineered wood alike.
Use coasters & mats
Place coasters under cups and felt pads under heavier objects, and use heat-resistant mats under electronics or warm items to protect the top from direct heat marks.
Keep out of direct sun
Prolonged direct sunlight can fade or unevenly shift the Brushed Smoke finish over time — position the unit away from harsh, direct sun where possible.

FAQ
Common questions
As a guideline, a television up to 60″. The unit is 170 cm wide and the usual advice is to leave about 20 cm more unit than television, so the screen looks balanced and the feet sit safely within the top. Remember that screen size is measured diagonally, not by width. A larger screen can still work if it is lighter than the 30 kg weight guideline and its feet sit fully within the 170 × 45 cm surface — measure the span between your television’s feet first, as it varies a lot by brand. These are guidelines rather than tested specifications.
The table top and base are Acacia Wood, blended with engineered wood for added dimensional stability. That means real grain and natural knots that vary from piece to piece, finished in the Nelson range’s signature Brushed Smoke tone.
No — at 58 cm high the Nelson sits taller than a typical lowline stand. It suits rooms where a slightly more upright, eye-level unit works better than a low media console. Check the 58 cm height against your sofa seat height before ordering.
No — the Nelson TV Unit arrives fully pre-assembled. There's no flat-pack, no screws and no tools required; simply unbox it and place it in your living room.
Your television does. Entertainment units of any height are covered by Australia’s mandatory toppling-furniture information standard: children have died from furniture tipover, so always secure your television with an anchor device, and never allow children to stand, climb or hang on drawers or shelves. Anchor kits are inexpensive and sold at any hardware store — our showroom team can point you to a suitable one.
Wipe spills promptly with a slightly damp cloth, use coasters and mats under drinks and warm devices, and keep the unit out of harsh direct sun to protect the Brushed Smoke finish. You can add our Guardsman Wood Care Kit in the buy box above.
Carton dimensions and internal shelf/drawer measurements are not listed on the specification sheet for this model, and we would rather not estimate them. Call us on 07 3161 5415 and our showroom team will measure the actual unit and carton for you.
Full details
Nelson TV Unit — full product details
The Nelson TV Unit is an entertainment piece measuring 170 cm long, 45 cm deep and 58 cm high, built from a blend of solid acacia wood and high-quality engineered wood and finished in the Nelson range’s signature Brushed Smoke tone — a soft, weathered light-brown-and-cream finish that is lighter and more washed-out than typical acacia, giving the timber a coastal, beach-house character while still showing the natural grain and knots clearly.
Acacia is a dense tropical hardwood known for natural grain variation and figuring, so every piece looks slightly different rather than the uniform finish of MDF or veneer; pairing it with engineered wood adds dimensional stability that helps the piece resist warping over years of regular use.
The storage layout splits across two zones: two open upper shelves, separated by a central divider and each with an oval cable-management cutout on the back panel, keep a soundbar, games console or streaming device on display with cables routed out of sight, while three handle-less drawers run across the bottom for concealed storage of remotes, accessories and the everyday clutter that builds up around a TV.
At 170 cm wide the Nelson comfortably carries a television up to 60″ as a guideline, leaving roughly 10 cm of clearance at each end so the screen looks balanced on the top rather than overhanging it, with the top rated to approximately 30 kg. Both figures are guidelines rather than tested specifications, and whichever is the lower limit is the one to work to — measure the span between your television’s feet before ordering, since pedestal and foot spacing varies widely between brands.
At 58 cm high the Nelson sits noticeably taller than a lowline TV unit, so check this height against your sofa’s seat height and sightlines rather than assuming a low media-console profile. Entertainment units of any height fall under Australia’s mandatory toppling-furniture information standard, so always secure your television with an anchor device.
The Brushed Smoke finish gives the Nelson range a distinct coastal-modern character, pairing comfortably with whitewashed walls, soft blue and sandy-neutral upholstery, and woven jute and seagrass textures typical of Hamptons coastal, beach-house and modern-coastal interiors. The Nelson TV Unit arrives fully pre-assembled — no flat-pack panels, no screws, no assembly time.
Solid timber pieces benefit from a little care — wipe spills promptly, use coasters and mats, keep the unit out of direct sun, and our optional Guardsman Wood Care Kit is formulated to keep the finish looking its best. The price is for the TV unit alone; television, media devices and accessories are not included. Images are for illustration only and, as solid timber, the actual grain, colour and knots will vary from piece to piece — we highly recommend you visit the store before the purchase.
Pair it with the matching Nelson Coffee Table and Nelson Bookshelf for a coordinated living-room set, or carry the same Brushed Smoke finish through with the Nelson Console Table, Nelson Dining Chair, Nelson Buffet Table and Nelson 7 Piece Dining Set.
