Cable Management Box – ribbed design, lift-off lid, side cable slots

The tangle of plugs behind the desk can finally disappear from view.

A power strip with four chargers plugged in always ends up as a nest of cables on the floor or the desk. This box swallows the whole lot: the extension lead and adapters sit inside, the lid goes on, and only the cables you need come out through the slots at each end. The ribbed sides look more like a piece of decor than a piece of office kit, and the flat lid doubles as a spot to rest a phone, earbuds or a small speaker while they charge.

Why this cable box keeps a room looking tidy

• Room for a power strip: fits an extension lead plus chargers, out of sight and away from dust.
• Cable slots at both ends: run the mains lead in on one side and charging cables out on the other.
• Lift-off lid: quick to open when you need to add or unplug something.
• Flat top: a handy charging spot for a phone or small device.
• Ribbed finish in three colours: white, brown or sage green to suit a desk, TV unit or bedside table.
