It's a neat gimmick, but definately falls into the category

They would be handy for upper end displays like those used at
conventions that are assembled and disassembled often . But obviously
the person doing the dismantling would have to know where all of the
fasteners are located.

The inventor turned down the Shark Tank deal. He wanted $250K for a 25%
equity stake in his company. They offered him $250K for the patent rights
but wanted *nothing* to do with him. They flat out didn't trust him.
I think he got a deal from someone else but I don't see any indication
that the furniture is for sale anywhere. Having moved a few kids in and out
of college dorms and apartments, I'd have gladly paid a premium for easy
to assemble knock-down furniture.
