Neat idea, but how expensive are these?
I just use a drill or staple gun, and lots of zap straps. Everything goes to exactly where I want it. You can buy grommets pretty cheap if you need a hole. I find myself making adjustments a few times a year, when I upgrade or replace hardware. Yes, it takes a bit of up-front work, but the result is great. This approach has worked just fine for me for 15+ years.
- sfnick92 6y agoWould be pretty expensive if I sold as is. North of $1500. Your story is relatable. Most desktops don't think through cabling. Cables management is considered an add-on accessory even though EVERY modern desk has cables. Why aren't cables bettern integrated into desks? This is my response to that.
- rkagerer 6y agoCool. I didn't mean to bash your product, it's neat! Just think it'll be a tough sell unless you can either really commoditize it or alternatively enhance it into a premium, high-end product. (The bespoke option might go some ways to that, but you'd also need very high end materials, finish, design aesthetics, other unique features like concealed, built-in wireless charging, etc).
- sfnick92 6y agoThanks I agree with all that. Cheers.
- spicybright 6y agoYou don't even have to go that far if you don't want. I just use command hooks, the small ones that are made for hanging up lights outdoors. 10 bucks and 15 minutes of work and you never have to worry about cables getting in the way again. It's really odd when companies try to come up with expensive laborious solutions to truly simple problems, and market it like it's solving this massive issue plaguing the world. Bonus points if they're reasoning is to trail blaze "how X should REALLY be like."
