Promising review: "Designed for the minimalist. If you like fancy designs, this is not for you. It is a great functional design. Small enough to not get in the way on my desk but large enough to write your lists and activities for the week. I love the simplicity of the layout. Recommended for anyone who likes to jot things down during the course of the day and keep track of tasks and upcoming appointments of events." —ElleH

Promising review: "I absolutely love these salad containers. My fiancé and I have big appetites, but try to eat healthy. These containers fit a ton of salad greens and all sizes of toppings — nuts, beans, cheese, fruits, meats, pasta, etc. They make packing lunch easy. Just throw in some greens, a protein, a dressing, and toppings that make salad fun for you! We use ours several times per week and they make it to both our jobs without spilling or leaking. I walk and ride public transit, so mine gets tossed around a bit. Several of my friends and coworkers have bought them after seeing mine!" —izzo

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in eight colors).

Promising review: "Need something simple so I could plug in all the electronics at my desk. This is much nicer than just a standard power strip since it doesn't add any more cords to the chaos. Plugs are angled enough that they don't get in the way of you have several things plugged in. For reference I usually have my laptop charger, monitor, Google home mini, lamp, and phone charger plugged in at any given point in time. Night-light is a nice addition." —Samantha

Promising review: "I purchased this to make cold brew coffee at the office. My coworkers and I were going to the local siren at least 3–4 times a week for our afternoon pick me up. It was starting to become a serious drain financially. We all chipped in to get this pitcher and take turns buying beans. Get them ground for a French press, or super coarse, and you'll have a pretty good replica. The instructions for making cold brew are pretty easy. We've seriously cut down our caffeine expenditures by 50%–75%. Now if we could figure out a way to order out less :)." —DT

Promising review: "I’m 5’5” and it seems my feet never land right with the floor while I’m in my office chair that needs to align with the top of the desk. This perfectly evens the playing field! Very comfy, great support, and I love that the cover comes off to wash." —Angie

Check out a TikTok of the Stojo collapsible cup in action.

Stojo is a small business that specializes in dishwasher-, microwave-safe storage and travel products with the goal of eliminating single-use plastics.

Promising review: "I take my lunch to work and during midday I like to use the Keurig to brew a cup of coffee. The 12-ounce Stojo cup I purchased is very practical. It is thick and durable. The plastic collar enables you to hold the cup without squeezing it or burning your hands on the hot walls of the cup. There is enough volume in the cup to allow for the 12-ounce brew plus ample creamer. It's not a stainless vacuum cup, but it does hold its temperature better than your typical gas station or coffee shop cup. Plus you have the advantage of being able to reheat your drink in the microwave which you can't do with a stainless cup. —ViciousCycle

Didn't want to have plastic ones, so after searching decided to choose this five-pack glass set and have no regrets so far. The size is just ideal for lunch — not too big or too small, it'll fit just the right amount of food to eat but not overeat. They are microwave-safe and it's very convenient if you have a microwave in the office." —AlmaMater

Promising review: "I prefer to work with a laptop. However, because it's smaller than a desktop, I had the tendency to look down and hunch while I worked. Given that I work long hours, I decided to get this laptop stand to help reduce the strain on my neck. Love this product. It's sturdy and ergonomic." —Eugene

Promising review: "Never thought something analog would be SO useful in my daily routine. I work from home and am constantly project managing multiple complex strategic projects.

For a nominal investment, I highly recommend it if you have trouble keeping up with things." —Captainflapjax

Makes my work desk look more colorful and pretty! It feels like a good quality mat. As for function, I like that it also acts as a mouse pad for my mouse. Writing on paper with it underneath is not a problem, writing still feels smooth. Overall I love this beautiful mat." —Jessica

Promising review: "I used stickers like these when I worked in food service, to date the food and keep proper rotation. Now I have them for my kitchen, too! I slap one of these on a jar of pasta sauce, leftovers, meat when I thaw it, all so I know how long it’s been in the fridge and when I should toss the food out. The stickers dissolve readily in warm water and haven’t left any sticky residue or anything behind, and they’re easy to write on with a pen. Love these!" —Alex B.

Promising review: "I have a home office, and when I'm working from home, I like to have the TV on for background noise. Every now and then I'll hear something that I'll want to see, and now I don't need to stop working to turn my chair around and see — just put this on the shelf that holds my monitor, and now I can just glance over and keep working. It clips on easily, adjusts easily (my cat will come up and rub against it putting it out of whack)." —Robin M. Padon

Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in three styles).

Promising review: "I am very happy with my purchase of the Rocketbook. I have it set to the side on my desk for quick scribbles, when I need to make notes. It has eliminated a bunch of messy scrap pieces of paper all over the place. The pen that came with it works great (I am fussy about that); it feels like normal pen to paper. When I'm done, I just spray a bit of water and wipe clean. Great organizational tool and keeps my office neat and free of extra clutter." —KMS

They're super cute colors too!!" —Daniel Macaluso

Get a set of seven from Amazon for $13.99.

Promising review: "We now own three of these 10,000 LUX units, and they have been worth every dollar. One for my desk, one for my wife's desk, one for the kitchen. We have so many because they really work! We get at least 30 minutes of bright light first thing in the morning and our energy levels go WAY up as a result." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three styles).

Promising review: "This lightweight arm holds at least 20 pages without falling out. I use this to prioritize things I need to get done and it keeps me from losing paper in piles. I have neck issues because I am constantly looking down and this keeps my head up and makes data entry easier because it's right next to the screen. It also pivots so I can adjust the angle." —Life Is Short

Get it from Amazon for $11.29.

Promising review: "Got this for my office, as our HVAC is temperamental. It has two speeds to choose from, and I find both not overly loud. It gives a decent breeze and helps fight off the heat and stuffiness on the days that the AC is not up to par. It's a good compact size, and I love the retro styling. It fits perfectly on my desk. I kept going back and forth as to whether or not to buy it. I'm so glad I did! It's been a lifesaver many times over." —bvegan

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in seven styles).

Get a set of two from Brighttia on Etsy for $11.98 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "AWESOME desktop organizer. It's surprisingly a very flexible item. The pink area detaches from the organizer making it easier to move your pens around if needed, giving you flexibility in how you organize your items. You can also adjust the width of the inner dividers in case you have bigger items you'd like to store. Highly recommend this item. It's sturdy and won't break on you." —ruby
