Overview:

The Unibind X-Tower is a special storage rack that is designed specifically to hold your Unibind binding covers and spines.

However Unibind X-Towers can be used for more than just storage. They can also be used to create a highly professional work surface for use in binding your reports, presentations and proposals.

It is possible to set a single unit on your counter or use multiple units to create your own countertop.

They are simple, practical and can integrate perfecting into almost any office environment.

Strengths / Features:

From looking at a picture, the X-Tower looks fairly flimsy. However, when you see one in real life you will find that it is actually quite sturdy and durable. The top and the back of the unit is made from wood while the rails and bars on the front and side of the machine are made of high quality heavy duty plastic. X-Towers used to be made completely of wood but were redesigned to include plastic components in order to reduce the weight.

Speaking of weight, a single X-Tower only weighs about thirteen pounds. This means that they are easy to move and transport or to stack into customized configurations.

Each X-Tower is designed to be used as a standalone unit. They measure approximately 17-1/8" x 13-7/8" x 14-3/8" in size and can will easily sit on a countertop or work surface. However, many user choose take two, four or six X-Towers an stack them together in order to create a binding work surface. By stacking the units two high you have a comfortable counter height surface where you can place your Unibind machine or assemble your documents.

Each of the Unibind X-Tower units can hold up to four large boxes of Unibind covers or spines. Alternatively, they can hold up to eight smaller boxes of supplies. Once you have emptied a box you can convert it into a drawer for your accessories or you can conveniently replace it with another full box of supplies. This configuration helps to keep your binding supplies neat, organized and at your fingertips.

Weaknesses / Limitations:

Unibind X-Towers are shipped flat and have to be assembled by the end user. This helps to save on shipping costs and reduce damage. They really aren't that difficult to assemble. The only tool that you will need is an Allan Key that is included in the box with the pieces. However none of the literature tells you that you have to assemble them.

Although the units appear to be fairly durable, they are still made of plastic and should not be overloaded. The work surface produced by the X-Towers should not be used to sit or stand on. They will be fine for normal usage but should also not be used to hold heavy machines or paper handling machines.

All of the pictures that you will see of X-Towers will show them full of Unibind boxes. However, the supplies are sold separately. These units look a lot better when they are full but it can cost quite a bit of money to buy that many boxes of supplies. This is something to keep in mind if you decide to purchase multiple units in order to create a work surface.

Recommendation:

The Unibind X-Tower makes an excellent storage rack for your boxes of Unibind covers and spines.

However, depending on your needs you can use these units for a lot more than storage. They can create a highly professional and usable work surface to hold your Unibind machine. You can even use the top of these racks to assemble your documents.

All of these things make X-Towers an excellent choice for almost any size of organization.
