A cool exercise ball that’ll be much better than a chair because it’ll not only help relieve back pain but can also engage your abs and core, promote good posture, and help you stretch. It’s the easiest way to work out while sitting, I daresay!
Promising review: “I originally bought this ball for my son to use at home while we are starting our digital school year. I myself, working now all day online, have been struggling sitting in a chair. I asked my son if I could borrow his ball. Wow, what a nice treat that was! It was a great relief for my back. And, I’m not going to lie, it felt good to bounce and roll around. I noticed right away my posture improved. Needless to say, I ordered a bigger ball for myself. The ball is easy to inflate and is holding the air in even though my son is now not only using it at his computer desk but he brings it around the house and will play video games and laying on his belly on it, sitting on it, resting his head on it, throwing it at his brother…ha! My new ball has been a must have for me now. I have also used my ball for exercise. It’s been nice to add that extra core engagement by incorporating balance as well. I’m very happy.” —Kindle Customer

A thin electrical cover so you no longer need to deal with bulky plugs with equally bulky furniture in the way! This cover is connected to a power strip that allows you to charge up to six devices. Small but packs a mighty punch.
Promising review: “The design of this is great. I always hated putting plugs behind furniture and either not using the plug, or the furniture being inches away from the wall. This is the perfect solution. I have a few of these now behind couches and dressers in the house and they are great. This is more expensive than some other flat extension cords but I think the look and quality of these is worth it.” —Adam C.

A mini fridge you will come to highly appreciate when you’re ~in the zone~ and cannot risk a distracting trip to the kitchen. Stock your fave snacks for the day and you’ll have all you need!
You can charge this using an adapter in your car or a regular outlet, and if you unplug it and take it on the go, items will stay cold for several hours as long as you don’t open the door.
Promising review: “I bought this refrigerator because I recently started working from home because of the COVID-19 quarantine. When I’m working during the day, I have to keep myself locked up in the spare bedroom so my toddler doesn’t realize I’m home. Otherwise, she would be trying to come see me all day. **Disclaimer: I don’t just lock my toddler out and leave her alone, there’s someone here taking care of her! Anyway, since I can’t really leave the bedroom, this fridge has been great to keep some drinks cold while I’m working. I put them in already cold and they hold the temperature as long as they are in the fridge.” —Aratay
Get it from Amazon for $47.99+ (available in five colors).

A sleek and lovely foldable desk that’s everything you’ve been looking for in your WFH setup. And when you need more room? Poof, make it disappear!
Wayfair, Sam Tomaszewski / BuzzFeed
My BuzzFeed colleague Sam Tomaszewski has one and loves it. In her own words:
“This folding desk was a WFH lifesaver. When I first bought it, I was still living with roommates and I was able to fit it into my bedroom alongside my bed with room to spare. It’s small enough to not take over a full room, but still fits everything I needed on it. Plus, it folds up for easy setup and storage if you need to put it away at the end of your work day. With the addition of some super cute marble contact paper, I’m actually excited to sit down and get some work done (even though I do still miss working in an office).”

A sleek air purifier that’ll help trap smoke, pollutants, dust, and germs while circulating clean air around your space so you won’t be breathing in anything nasty while you’re sitting in one spot working all day. Protect those lungs!
Walmart
Promising review: “This is awesome! It is so super quiet and efficient! I did lots of research first to find the best quality but also affordable air purifier because I have horrible allergies and I can definitely say that I found the winner! I read in reviews about a plastic smell when first running it so I stuck the replaceable odor filter in it and probably smelled the plastic smell for the first few hours and then it was gone. And I can breathe again. I don’t have to grab my inhaler first thing in the morning anymore! I definitely recommend this product and I will be buying another one!” —Jessica

Promising review: “This thing is a game-changer…literally. I use my laptop for gaming. I like to run games with high-quality graphics, and thus, my computer heats up.

I highly recommend this to anyone who hates their laptop burning their legs.” —Scott

A standing desk converter so you can effortlessly go from sitting to stretching your legs in seconds.
Promising review: “I just assembled this before work in less than 15 minutes and have been using it all day. I am VERY pleased with it. It rises and lowers so easily and smoothly and there is plenty of room for my two monitors. The keyboard and mouse fit comfortably on the keyboard tray… Sitting at my desk all day was starting to really hurt my back and shoulders so this was necessary for me.

An ergonomic mouse pad with gel support to minimize your wrist pain!
Promising review: “I love how inexpensive this mouse pad is for what you get out of it. It has absolutely saved my wrists from working all day at a computer. I didn’t want a mouse pad that was covered in cloth because the cloth tends to wear down and look bad, but so far the cloth on this still looks perfect after months of use. The bottom of the pad clings to my desk and does not move or slide around. Highly recommend.” —E. McKillip

Amazon, amazon.com
The cover is removable and washable according to reviewers.
Promising review: “I have been using the seat pillow for two weeks now, and it has done what it advertises. It has reduced pain, held up up well, and maintained its shape. Given I am not sitting on it all day, which may impact the wear and tear, it still has provided an increase in support and comfort, and has helped reduce my dull sciatica pain when having to sit for extended periods of time.” —Icarus Rising

A coffee warmer you can keep on your desk so you never have to worry about your morning coffee or afternoon tea ever going cold or even lukewarm if you often get so caught up with work that you forget about it. Plus, it has auto shutoff!
Amazon
Promising review: “I had gone through two other coffee warmers in a month, both of which got raving reviews on Amazon but barely kept coffee warm for 30 minutes. So I decided to splurge on this more expensive one, and BEST DECISION EVER! Not only does it keep your coffee warm, it keeps it HOT on the highest setting. It does an excellent job at keeping your coffee hot for as long as you want, PLUS it is super easy to turn on and off. When you turn it off, it displays the lowest hot setting light to show you the plate is still hot so no unsuspecting burns. This is hands-down the best option on the market.” —Elizabeth Harris

Promising review: “I received my cool mist humidifier yesterday and I have to say, I am very happy I bought it. I work in a small office (my room is not bigger than 6 feet by 10 feet) and with the forced air we have, my nose and throat were always bothering me with such dry air. Now, even if it was only day two of using the machine, I feel and noticed a huge difference with my nose and throat. Great little machine, very helpful and worth the price.” —Mary

A wireless ergonomic mouse because it puts less strain on your wrist, reduces cramping, and allows you to go about your work in peace!
Amazon
Promising review: “I bought this mouse because I have wrist and lower arm pain. I can’t actively use any regular mouse more than one hour at a time without getting some pain… It’s comfortable, and this is the most important thing, because so far I can use it for hours and don’t have any pains. The wrist isn’t twisted like on a regular mouse and I can feel this, for the better. Took me under a day to get adjusted to this angle. An interesting thing about this design is that you feel more inclined to use your whole arm to make mouse movements, which is a good thing, since doing so puts less stress on the wrist.” —Dan

You can set the heat temperature, vibration and bubble settings to your liking. The massaging rollers can be removed if you don’t want them.
Promising review: “Works well! The bubbles’ pressure is minimal but very relaxing with the vibrating function turned on — which is also minimal and relaxing. The vibration is not intense at all on the floor and it is not ultra-sonic but still operates rather quietly — no need to raise your TV volume. I get to enjoy a nice foot bath at the comfort of my home for a very reasonable price!” —Freddy

A set of two memory foam armrest pads that’ll support your wrists and relieve tension in your elbows and forearms. Pain has no place here.

My brother told me it could be my armrests of the chairs I sit in because he had the same pain and these Aloudy [armrest pads] made his pain go away. I ordered them straightaway, installed then on my Aeron chair and was blown away with how much more comfortable my elbows felt.” —Joseph

A memory foam lumbar pillow to help relieve back strain and get you that back support and pain relief you need.
Promising review: “I got this for my office chair at work. The company refuses to get us new chairs that have even close to adequate back support and this helped a lot. My chair usually leans back and can’t be stabilized to sit upright much, this back support has been helping me stay upright and I feel like I’m sitting up correctly. I’m so glad I bought this! Also, the straps are adjustable 🙂 It’s 2020, I’m at a different job, and still using this same backrest, and it has not changed at all in firmness. I’m still pleased.” —Dulce
