In my cube, there isn’t much room. I would say that is an obvious fact of life in anyone’s cubicle.  The Original Desk Potato allows you to add a little bit more real estate to your office desktop. 

I use mine to hold my cell phone, and other small items.

The image on the left is a little different than the one I purchased years ago. The one I own doesn’t have the little sections. It is basically just a flat top.

I kind of wish I had this newer version because it certainly will keep everything in its place.

Before I saw this rather unique under desk organizer, I never knew they even existed. I use mine today to hold my wireless charger and my cell phone. It is very easy to affix to your desktop and it’s just another one of those modern desk accessories that have seemed to crop up over the years to fulfill a need.

Ever think of putting your phone on a stand so that you can store items beneath it? Well, this really neat Sparco Mesh Phone Stand will allow you to do just that.

I bought mine a while back and I really like the way my phone is elevated which makes it easily accessible but my favorite aspect of this stand is the side slot which allows me to keep my note pad which I use every day.

Not to mention that there is an abundant amount of room beneath the phone to place a notepad, phone instructions, or whatever you like. I’ve had mine now for over 2 years and I not only like the way it looks but it’s extremely functional in a small space. Read this article to see it as I set it up in my office cube.

    I work in a cubicle as well and found your products and tips very helpful. I especially liked the mesh phone stand and 2-way corner shelf unit. The company that I work for specializes in cubicle design, as well as many other related products. We have a few similar products, such as a variety of desktop organizers and space-saving accessories. It’s amazing how easy it is to make the most of a tiny space with the right products. Thanks for sharing your tips!
