I have chosen something a little more modern from the current IKEA stock. The design is the Skruvby TV unit, and it is a simple minimalist design.
There are a lot of pros to this design that appeal to me personally, not least of all is the amount of storage this gives you. The shelves have a lot of room for devices like game consoles or DVD players, and the open back allows for good air flow and easy wire management.
All that being said, there are a few things I don’t like about this design. The biggest problem I have is the height. The taller sides with a thinner base could make it unstable with a bigger TV on it. This can be easily solved with mounting hardware, but I would make it a little shorter as well. I also like the units that have the mounting brackets for the TV built it. This allows you to adjust the height of the TV based on your preference, and also gives you the freedom to move your TV around if you want without having to uninstall the whole bracket like you would with a wall mounted bracket. Below is a sketch of this design.
These changes keep the design simple, but also add a lot of useful functionality.
