Kids sure can gently caress poo poo up in a moment can't they!? Problem I have is, one day, that'll be my work-from-home workstation. We only have a 2br place, so I don't have a room for an office that I can just close up.

I need a close-able desk or workspace that fulfills the following requirements:
  • Enclose a 24in monitor, keyboard, mouse (and space to move the mouse), somewhere to put my laptop that's sensible (although flexible on what that is as it's usually plugged in to a thunderbolt dock when in use) a bit of extra desk space (e.g. for a mug, phone, headset etc).
  • This needs to be something I can close up and ideally lock when I'm not using it. Protecting everything inside.
  • Cable access for power and ethernet
  • I'd also like something that can be opened and used, then closed, with no or minimal setup. As in, not spend 10 minutes rebuilding it every morning, and really not 10 minutes deconstructing it when my toddler comes charging through the door. I am however willing to have a small amount of re-organisation upon open and close.
  • Space for legs considered

I was thinking like this beaurex, but larger due to the monitor. This and this are also close, although both assume you're only using laptop with inbuilt keyboard. They are the right idea but not enough space. Also, and a large part of why I'm posting, they are the only idea I can think of. Happy to consider alternatives.
