1 DETERMINE A SIZE
Here’s a simple formula to figure out how big to go: Measure the distance from the seat of your sofa to the wall in inches and divide that by three, says Nidhi Kapur, founder and CEO of Maiden Home, a direct-to-consumer custom-furniture brand. For example, if you’re sitting 10 feet away, divide 120 (10 feet times 12 inches) by 3, and the recommended size is 40 inches. That said, in rooms with high ceilings or large expanses of wall, you can get away with (and will want) a larger screen, says Hannah Klesmith, a Best Buy in-home adviser based in central Wisconsin.

RECIPES FOR REAL LIFE
THE BEST
Sometimes it's not enough for our editors to be instantly impressed by a product. Sometimes we want to push it to the limits in one of our three labs, our own homes, or both to see how it holds up under pressure. We cook, we wear, we smear, we clean. We evaluate and tally. Then we give out the REAL SIMPLE Selects seal. When we put that label on something, that means it's among the 5,200-plus products we've formally evaluated according to strict protocols. On this list: some of our current faves. If you see something you like, scan the QR code and get shopping!
