The OFFICE™ - Electro-entopic Satellite OffiCenter

Offered in a choice of fine furniture finishes or sturdy laminate exteriors, The OFFICE™, designated by Fortune Magazine as a "Product To Watch", and featured live on the NBC TODAY Show, comes complete with a full-sized ergonomic chair (with articulating arms), which can be closed up inside, completely concealed from view when The OFFICE™ is closed and locked. The OFFICE™ is mobile. All models have been equipped with a built-in Lift & Roll jacking mechanism, designed to facilitate in-house relocation, without the need to dismantle computer equipment or remove files. All models of The OFFICE™ feature MIGA/BIB™ electric monitor lift and conceal function, providing completely unobstructed desk space when required for non-computing functions.

Strengths:

Specifically designed for those who are serious about their work. Enormously practical. Amenities are too numerous to list. Here's a link to The OFFICE™ site so you can judge for yourself.

Weaknesses:
We're certain we'll think of something... Eventually. But this product has been incredibly well thought out. No, it's not cheap. But neither is it terribly expensive. There are a LOT of models, starting with the newest introduction, The Learning Station™ line of convertible workstations which allows your computer equipment to appear and disappear from view on command, priced from around $1295, (the budget priced model, the LS-512 model of The Learning Station is brand new and totally amazing, converting from desk to computer workstation to a dining table for two!) and ranging on up to the top of the line CEO model in genuine mahogany, which comes with everything included (and we do mean everything, from the ergonomic chair right down to the built-in speakerphone) for around $8900. If you require: exceptional quality, common sense, ergonomic and safety conscious design, along with incredibly practical engineering, in a beautifully designed product that you can expect to last , you definitely won't be disappointed.

No particle board on any models. CEO and Professional Models are Marine quality plywood in your choice of high quality Mahogany or Oak veneers. Back (also marine quality plywood) has removable outer Masonite™ full-length protective panel for wiring and cable storage chamber. Corrosion proofed, Powder coated steel interior components. The CEO and Professional are pre-equipped with everything that makes sense. A number of new models are also being introduced.

Pricing: From $1195 to around $8900.

Published Reviews:

From the Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel-"Every once in a while, someone comes out with a product so good that it deserves a standing ovation. The uncontested winner at [A.S.I.D.] Design Spectrum ‘95 was The OFFICE, a high-tech workspace in a box that looks like an armoire. We’ve seen many pieces of furniture designed to hide computer equipment at the International Home Furnishings Market in High Point, N.C., but none equals this one... This is the perfect solution for small.. living spaces where a guest bedroom often doubles as an office... it’s a smarter idea than hiring a carpenter to do built-ins. This is a mobile investment".
