When was the last time you ate something while sitting on the sofa? Did you pull up the coffee table or a tray, or did you just hold the plate/bowl while you ate? The Sofa Hanger is an innovative little shelf that is designed to provide a convenient place to set your snacks while you're watching TV.
It may not look like the sturdiest thing to set a hot cup of coffee on, but the pictured shelf is made of aluminum that is much stronger than it appears to be. There are several alternatives to this shelf design, as well, including ones made of solid wood that look more like desks than tray tables. You can specify the width of the hanger so that it will fit snugly on the armrest of your sofa.
I'm still not sure that I would trust it with a big, hot mug of coffee, but it does seem like it would work out well for popcorn or other lightweight snacks that are unlikely to ruin the carpeting in the event that they fell.

Also, don't even think of laying a TV Guide anywhere near me. I don't wnat to look at it. This would be a much lovelier way to corral pesky remotes near the couch.
