Fuel Surcharge
Starting on April 10th, 2013, a fuel surcharge of 1% will be applied to select orders. While most orders will qualify for free shipping and no surcharge, a very small percentage will see this nominal fee depending on the products selected and the location to which they are being shipped.
Why are we applying this surcharge?
The cost of fuel has been steadily rising due to increases in crude oil prices. The global transportation market has reacted by increasing their prices and industry forecasts that this trend will continue.
Till recently, Cymax absorbed these increased costs into our operating budgets. However, the continual rise indicates that we must now move forward by adopting the industry’s standard practice. We have therefore made the difficult but necessary decision to follow the lead of transportation companies and implement a fuel surcharge.
Our Commitment to Our Customers
Cymax continues to commit to providing the utmost value for our customers. We endeavor to do everything that we can for operational efficiency and to control costs. We hope that the application of this relatively small fee is viewed in this light. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact Customer Service at 1-866-740-9830. We thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Note: Fuel surcharge is a non-refundable amount on shipment of your order

Entertainment Furniture: Choosing a TV Cabinet

Today’s televisions are made from flat panel LED, LCD, or plasma technologies. While it often makes sense to wall-mount a flat screen, there are many, many different types of TV furniture that can be used to store TVs in a room. Often called entertainment furniture, this type of furniture is commonly called a TV cabinet.

Are you looking to purchase a TV Cabinet? Check out Cymax's large selection of TV cabinets here.

TV Cabinets

TV cabinets can store a television within deep compartments that utilize doors for concealment between uses. Some of them are also designed to have the television sit on the top level shelf.

Choosing a Television Cabinet

Selecting audio visual furniture is slightly different than other types of furnishings. Aside from the furniture fitting into the room it’s intended for, all of our audio and visual components must also fit properly into the various shelves, stands, and cabinets within the items you purchase. Here are a few things to consider prior to making a purchase:

It’s extremely important to keep in mind that televisions, and the cabinets that display them, are measured differently. TVs are measured diagonally across the screen while TV furniture is typically measured in length and height. For this reason it is highly recommended that your TV be purchased in advance of the television cabinet so that you know it’s exact dimensions ahead of time.

Measuring the Diagonal

TV’s are measured diagonally across the screen. When a TV is said to be 40 inches, this means that it spans this length from one corner of the monitor to the diagonally opposing corner. Be sure that you take measurements of both the length and height of your television prior to purchasing a cabinet for it.

Just like any other type of furniture, a TV cabinet can come in different configurations. These will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Your choice will mostly depend on which style you think will fit best with your space, however there are certain additional considerations that should be made prior to a purchase:
