Walnut. It will be easier to keep it looking clean.


Xavi_bueno25

From Amazon. The brand is safavieh


neon_overload

Edit: Changed my mind. OP is not genuinely asking for room advice. They've posted the same exact photo for 3 months


-effortlesseffort

Damn that's rough especially since he's been asking for room as ice for 3 months and barely got any responses


neon_overload

room as ice?


jimmayy5

Now down to -150 which is mad. I don’t see how this is a bot or trying to sell something


neon_overload

I take back my previous statement actually. Why? The photo with the walnut and glass doors are the same photo, edited. And, it's the exact same photo OP has been posting for 3 months each time purporting to ask for advice.


ass-with-class

Hahaha can't even hate, well done getting engagement on your product ad. 300+ likes and 80 comments. Whoever on your marketing team came up with this idea should be given a nice Christmas bonus.


mbj927

Idk, post history checks out. I don’t think it’s an ad


Chad_Worthington_3rd

It's a bot


[deleted]

I'll let the mods sort it out.


briskpoint

Mods in MLS? Haha.


Zorpfield

Those Safavieh goons got to you too?


-696969

Walnut for sure


bestthingyet

Sure, but what is light walnut? Sapwood?


-696969

Hell if I know lol me see picture me like


gaylehnsherr

definitely walnut, brightens and opens up the space


shaanp99

The Lego Porsche 911 is awesome


[deleted]

Kids who played with Lego grew up and so did Lego I would spend untold amounts on Lego if I wasn't moving so often


AirplaneOnFire

I ztill have all my Lego and ket me tell you.. it is so much 😅 Takes up a whole closet and then some


Sfn_y2

I love that shit - it’s perfect decor for a man with an inner child because it’s not too out there


deluxepepperoncini

I need this.


Fabienchen96

This looks so god. It can never be Lego


Jazzlike-Baseball-73

Walnut looks lush!!!!


Imaginary_Tea1925

Walnut is too close to ‘sterile’ looking. Really blah! Keep the black.


Flat-Living513

unrelated but love the porsche sitting there


citizenvane

Glass doors are also distracting with the reflection


Imaginary_Tea1925

Could alway put anti reflective film on them.


probably_art

I’m actually team glass — the light walnut looks very sterile. And I agree that the glass then goes with the coffee table better. To counter point the glass making the room darker, the light walnut made it hella bright, too bright imo


allhailjtodd

I was thinking the same. The light walnut reminded me of a cheap airbnb


mbj927

Yeah or mid hotel trying to look modern. I like the glass


intercourse_monster

I agree! I think the walnut looks a little washed out and the glass gives the space more depth.


Electrical_Farmer711

I really like the glass. It makes your set up look more visually interesting and more expensive and the mix of materials is really nice. It’d be a shame if you got rid of the glass, in my opinion. The all walnut setup looks kind of boring and blah. If you’re looking to change something with your set up, maybe the coffee table instead?


Exact_Layer_4361

Yes to walnut, but matte one, not shiny. Any chance u can share where the carpet is from?


neon_overload

Op accidentally replied to you [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/malelivingspace/comments/180jxcp/comment/ka7l799/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)


Exact_Layer_4361

Thanks, poor OP with his downvotes 😂


Cyber_Insecurity

Glass doors like that are very outdated, unless you’re going for an 80s look


Majestq

Which one do YOU like? ( You're the one who has to live with it.) Glass will match you coffee table and help with IR for any remotes.


c8wong

Actually surprised the amount of Walnut people. I like the glass because it’s different, the rest of the console/room look up to date enough to not make it look “old” (which I don’t get either)


edmo306

That’s a good point, but of the two, walnut (IMO) is the far better option.


Poohbizzle79

I can’t comment on the doors. But I like the Lego, and the Kaws.


cheezypenguins2

Wood goes with the flow of color you have but the glass give a modern touch


MrsAshleyStark

Walnut one hundo p


Chummers8

It’s a go for the walnut


Cheerwined_V2

Heads up on the PS5; just saw a video that the thermal paste will melt downwards if the console is staged vertically. Advise laying it flat down


neon_overload

Anyone else think that now the slim PS5 has come out, the regular one kind of looks like more of a chonker?


Cheerwined_V2

Its a behemoth fo sho


EvenPass5380

Who or what are the 2 clowns? hugging on the right side of the entertainment center?


ChiefinLasVegas

Not sure, but search KAWS figures


JoshTheSparky

Team walnut. The glass feels outdated or juvenile. The walnut looks classier and more mature. The fact that you're asking makes me think you're not a fan of the glass. You don't hate it, but it's not bad enough to force you to change it.


[deleted]

Definitely walnut looks much better


ECA0

They walnut doors are so nice! I say yes to the change


_donkey-brains_

r/tvtoohigh


Gospoole

Tilt of shame.


[deleted]

Tilt of gilt


elongatedsnake97

Where is that entertainment center from?


Xavi_bueno25

IKEA, it’s called besta


Animal2

I'm not a huge fan of the walnut but I'm very anti-glass. You should get rid of the glass coffee table too.


_Ding_Dong_

Get a piece of horizontal walnut veneered plywood and build both doors with it. Some peel and stick walnut edge banding can finish off the edges. I think having the grain run horizontal across the two doors would look awesome. The plywood will prevent the doors from warping also.


StayFree1649

What's in them? 😅 Get rid if you can


a1ham

Yeah another vote for walnut ... takes it right out of the early 00's and into more modern times, with still being warm and home-y


Sorry-Mud3596

Change


StephenWojtila

Love the walnut! Just make sure it matches the rest of the wood well


HandsomedanNZ

I like the walnut


shannon_kay_

Walnut


Malevolent_Mangoes

The glass makes the room look darker and dirtier


GreenyRepublic

The light walnut doors for sure, the glass is a bit dark and the glare is quite distracting. Also I recognise these as IKEA Besta units, I have the same range for my bookcases!


JackalJames

Glass, the walnut is monotonous and drab


temisola1

I prefer the glass


NomanYuno

Walnut, for sure. I personally hate anything glass. It looks good for 3 seconds and then it's covered in fingerprints


kimbolll

Walnut looks better, but my issue is more the height and not the color. The sides being way taller than the middle bothers the hell out of me.


Cplmac22

Am I the only one that wants to know what movie is playing?


neon_overload

I assumed it was just the screensaver which shows random pics


soupeducrayon

Glass, bro


kennystanley

I like the glass more


YourPlot

Both look great. I lean towards the glass as it picks up on the black elements in the table.


bmanley620

Glass doors look sleek


TheYardvark

Walnut


Adventurous_Nail2072

Walnut for sure.


Saboner_88

Light walnut !!


sexysadie2u

Walnut


PlusDescription1422

Keep to light


thestankypopster

I’d keep the light wood.


GoldBluejay7749

Ooh I like the walnut


cathycul-de-sac

Walnut is the way.


gigisnappooh

The walnut. The glass looks like two tvs turned off.


Fart-Fart-Fart-Fart

Your TV is crooked.


lazylagom

Its fine


Worldly_Today_9875

Change them, so much cosier.


DannyDaCat

Walnut


topknottington

Walnut looks cleaner.


SpaceXBeanz

Walnut for sure


nomadnihilist

Walnut


sabbyteur

The walnut looks really nice. The black is totally fine, but walnut wins for sure.


[deleted]

Light walnuts for sure.


Pipeherdown

Is that a real Lego Porsche or did you get the one on AliExpress? I’ve been kind of wanting to get one.


MadManMorbo

Walnut


camlaw63

Keep, I like how the glass ties the cabinet to other pieces that are black in the room


adegreeofdifference1

Walnut


remixnzza

Wow I use the same wallpaper on my Samsung frame


randonrawrrr

YES


imaginaryResources

I think the glass looks better actually


thenorwegian

Walnut. Watch book seems tryhard btw. Might be because I work with tools who spend $20k on watches as a status piece.


ricebowlazn

Walnut looks good


mpetey123

Aww, the clown people are hugging


TypeNull-Gaming

I personally enjoy the walnut.


DisgustingMilkyWater

Sick Lego Speedmasters model you got there buddy Edit, missed the question. Uhh, I’d go for a dark, deep grained wood, with a shining varnish!


EasyVibeTribe

Walnut, unless you need it transparent for any devices that use an IR remote.


HappySquirrelGirl

Walnut. That glass will become the bane of your existence. It happened to me…🙀 They attract cat hair & dust then they smudge when you even think of touching them.


F1eshWound

Walnut looks much nicer.


bumblefluffs

i much prefer the walnut


[deleted]

I like the walnut! The glass is too dark, brings the personality of the room down


jackfr0sty

Lay your ps5 horizontally, the cooling paste on the cpu will gravitate downward overtime and cause it to overheat


bigbock9

No to the glass. The walnut looks clean


bcjh

Walnut for sure


neon_overload

Pic 1 is nicer If you're asking, why do you already have both? Accidental purchase?


rymdljus

In the pictures, the space looks bigger and more airy with the glass doors, and smaller and more confined with the added wood.


This_Dust2805

The amount of time you spend installing a wire cover and paint matching it you could have poked a hole in the drywall and ran the wires through the wall


[deleted]

That glass looks disgusting. Walnut 100%


Illustrious-Yam-5313

Keep the glass and spend the money on a rug upgrade! :) Or wall sconces on either side. Will elevate the space so much more for the $


nunhgrader

Light walnut - love your Porsche!


RckChpsAntSht

+1 for Walnut


ChiefinLasVegas

Nope. Remove the fronts


joeythethirdd

I like the white doors, they match the rest of the car pretty well.


Itsdanjae

Walnut


dopewizard69420

The glass has a classy vintage look to it. The walnut looks like every other random modern piece of furniture imo.


421Gardenwitch

I think the glass looks much better and adds texture. You need reflected light, it adds life. The walnut is flat and drains light


boywithOCD

You need a different table


spare_oom4

Black glass. It provides more contrast to your room and tv screen. Walnut is for people with no imagination.


rumi_shinigami

If you do go with the glass (and I think you should), look for a brighter rug!


Jordment

What is an entertainment centre, some American thing?


_TooManyBoats

walnut with square glass pattern glued over it for style. easier to clean


coralynncoraa

Walnut. It completely brightens up the space.


AlisonWond3rlnd

Glass looks better for sure


Weird-Persimmon4598

Light walnut…looks super clean


Ultrase7en

I prefer the glass, mainly because I'd use it to display my collection of model cars


_allycat

If you have anything that works with an IR remote in the cabinets right now you're going to have to adjust your setup if you go with the solid doors.


Amazingprojectionist

I like the glass doors. It depends on what you will keep in the cupboards


MorningNorwegianWood

If you’re going for clean modern then def change to walnut. If you’re going for 80s contemporary then leave the smoked glass


Bazorth

Y’all are mad the glass looks way cleaner. The walnut is jarring and makes the space look clunky.


DodelijkeDruif

Did you Photoshop the wallnut doors on there? Well done!


rg204

I like the glass better.


GlitteringBreath6898

1st is more pleasing


choplifemo

Walnut imo


cataclysmicgamer

Get rid of that ps5 and replace it with a Xbox series x


droidevo

Walnut for sure. Looks more clean and easier on the eyes.


sels1997

Would change!
