When tidying up your desk, you want to make effective use of the space under your desk, in front of your knees. This space is perfect for storing items you don’t need because you don’t have to sit on a chair and your knees will hit it.
There are several storage goods that can be used for such spaces, but the “under-desk outlet storage” introduced this time is a product that allows you to put away excess cables in those spaces. It is sold at Daiso, and the actual selling price is reasonable at only 110 yen. I actually bought it and tried it.
This product consists of a polyester net with rubber bands attached to the four corners for hooking. The package includes four hooks that are attached with adhesive tape, which are attached to the bottom of the desk top and hook the four corners of the net. The structure is similar to a hammock.
The rubber band that hooks on the hook can be stretched and contracted freely, so you can tighten it tightly, adjust the length of the cable by inserting your hand from the side, or remove the two in front to arrange the whole. High maintainability.
By the way, the size of the net is regarding A4, and the hooks are attached to the four corners, so the area required for pasting is regarding 40 cm wide x 30 cm deep. The depth might be a bit shorter considering it’s slightly looser rather than taut.
The order of installation is to first attach the hooks to the back of the top plate and hook the net there. It’s difficult to change the position once it’s attached, but it’s much better than similar products that require a hole in the top plate to be screwed.
The package says to stick the hook and wait an hour before using it. There is no need to turn the desk upside down for application, and it is sufficient to work by crawling under the desk.
As far as I tried, I think that attaching the two hooks at the back first and then attaching the two hooks at the front is less likely to fail in positioning.
Once installed, all you have to do is plug in the cables. It is often difficult to see what the cable is like inside the same type of product, but since this product is a mesh product, it is easy to grasp the unevenness of the cable from the outside, and it has the advantage that heat is less likely to accumulate.
Of course, you can also put the power strip itself in addition to the cable. If you pack it too much, you will have problems such as heat generation, so you need to be careful, but compared to placing the power strip directly on the floor, it will be less likely to collect dust and you will not have to worry regarding getting your feet caught in it, which is a plus. .
By the way, the load capacity is 2kg, so as long as the items you store are cables and power strips, you won’t have to worry regarding exceeding this. If you have a wide desk, you can place two side by side to distribute the weight.
As far as I actually tried it, it didn’t make me feel its existence in a good way, and gave me the impression that it was an unsung hero. It is also very comfortable because there are no cables scattered around your feet. In addition to installing pre-wired cables, it seems good to attach it near the front of the desk and use it as a drawer.
As described above, the rubber loops attached to the hooks at the four corners can be stretched and contracted, making it highly convenient and highly practical. As a product with the same function, there are wire tray-shaped products, but this product sells for 110 yen, so it is good to try it easily.
In addition, similar products use a clamp structure and screw fastening, which tends to limit the desks that can be attached, but this product has high versatility due to the mechanism of attaching hooks with stickers. For wire shelves, etc., it may be possible to replace the attached hooks with commercially available S-shaped hooks.
Although this product is such a product, if there is a bottleneck, it may be the availability. While I was writing this article, I went around several Daiso stores trying to buy another one, but I mightn’t find any, probably because they were out of stock. It’s unclear if the original supply is low or if it’s sold out and it’s in short supply, but in any case, if you find it now, I’d recommend getting it immediately.
