Could you post a picture of how the configuration looks now?

Hi, appreciate if you post a picture .. it will help me to understand current configuration.

We tried changing the legs of the unit unfortunately the screws won’t fit !
So we did this temporarily.
But would need a permanent solution to fix this.

Wouldn't the most elegant solution be to wall-mount the TV and dispense with the stand altogether?

It’s a rented apartment. We just want to avoid any sort of drilling in the walls. So this was the best we could think.
Moreover, I wanted to fix the metals legs directly to the tv unit but they won’t fit so had to fix them temporarily.

Is that wall is the only wall where you can keep your unit ? By keeping the unit like that also reduces the efficiency of the heater.

There is another wall as well.
That’s next to the kitchen space. Too much movement obstructs the view.

This should help.

Keep your unit in the marked area.

That’s where it is and that’s exactly where the baseboard is! Right in front of the baseboard
The baseboard is awkwardly placed in the room.
Since it’s a rented apartment we don’t want too much damage to the walls with drilling.

Then only one option left. Keep the unit adjacent to kitchen. Minor obstruction will be there but it will be habituated.

The wall adjacent to the kitchen is the best bet. There will some traffic in front of it, but minimal. The busiest time in the kitchen is the first half of the day. Unlikely that there will much TV watching during that time

I still think you could opt for wall mounting the TV. It is a very simple matter to remove the screws, fill the holes with putty and repaint. In any case, all landlords ask for an additional month's rent as compensation towards repainting the space. So I think you can safely go ahead and mount the TV on the wall

No worries! Grab some furniture risers or DIY with sturdy blocks to lift the TV unit. Just make sure it's stable. You can also consider a wall-mounted TV stand or shelf above the heater. Problem solved, and movie nights back on track!

Yes that’s exactly what we did (image posted).
