About 2 in 1 Cathaoir Uilleach Ilfheidhmeach

Cathaoir uilleach is ea 2 in 1 le stóráil chomhtháite agus rochtain ar chumhacht, atá deartha don obair agus don scíth. Cuireann an chathaoir uilleach suíochán agus dromchla stórála le chéile in aon phíosa amháin, ionas go bhfanann leabhair agus gléasanna faoi láimh. Tá poirt chumhachta ar fáil mar asraonta caighdeánacha nó i gcomhcheangal le USB. Is féidir an dromchla leathan stórála a chur ar chlé nó ar dheis. Cruthaíonn na huillinneacha arda adhmaid teorainn amhairc a thacaíonn le príobháideachas agus fócas. Tá an struchtúr déanta as darach soladach le fráma cruach péinteáilte le púdar agus cumhdach polaiéistir athchúrsáilte.
