Elephant in a Box

EASILY ASSEMBLED, FOLDABLE SOFA

producthype.co/elephant-in-a-box-sofa/

Billed as the strongest, most comfortable foldable sofa, this furniture collapses into one box that can be shipped via UPS or by car.

Elephant in a Box can be assembled in fewer than five minutes and disassembled in fewer than 2 minutes (no tools are needed), making it ideal for people who relocate often.

The sofa’s honeycomb structure used in its base and back support is expandable and recovers its shape quickly after pressure is applied. It can hold up to 1,000 lbs.

Elephant in a Box, which will retail for $899, is scheduled to ship this month to crowdfunding Rewards backers.

CleanseBot

BACTERIA-KILLING TRAVEL ROBOT

CleanseBot is a pocket-sized, smart robot with artificial intelligence and 18 sensors. It uses four UV-C lamps to blast away 99.99 percent of germs and bacteria on any surface.

The device is particularly useful in hotel rooms, which are known to contain many germs—especially on light switches, the TV remote and beds. Just set the CleanseBot on the bed, engage the wheels, turn it on for either 30 or 60 minutes, and it sanitizes and disinfects bed sheets and blankets. It can also be used in handheld or power bank mode.

CleanseBot retails for $259.
