10 Desk Setup Essentials for a Better Work-From-Home Day

A few well-chosen accessories can transform a kitchen-table workspace into a proper home office. These are the upgrades our customers rate the highest.

Get your screen to eye level

A laptop stand or monitor arm lifts the screen so you stop hunching. Pair it with an external keyboard and mouse and your neck will thank you by Friday.

One cable to rule them all

A USB-C docking station connects your monitor, keyboard, drives and charging through a single cable - sit down, plug in one thing, start working.

Look good on camera

A 2K webcam with autofocus and a small ring light instantly upgrade your video calls. A collapsible green screen helps if your background is the laundry corner.

Sound matters more than you think

A USB condenser microphone makes you clearer on calls than any laptop mic. If you take calls in a shared space, a comfortable headset with a boom mic is the better choice.

Comfort details

Memory foam wrist rests, an XXL desk mat, a footrest and a lumbar cushion are cheap upgrades that remove the small discomforts that build up over a day.

Light your desk properly

A monitor light bar illuminates your desk without glare on the screen and takes up zero desk space.
