1. An adjustable phone stand designed to hold your phone vertically or horizontally so you can either keep up with any calls or texts you receive, or get a quick Netflix binge in while you work. Sometimes you need a distraction to help you get through hours of spreadsheets.
Promising reviews: "I'm loving this! Excellent! And I saw this on Tiktok!" —JBag
"I love it. I use my phone for conference calls (WFH), and I don't know how I lived without this. It's sturdy and keeps the cord out of the way. It's right there in my face so I can mute it while on work calls or just see notifications at a glance. Highly recommend." —Cyndie L. Tozzo
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in nine colors).
2. A glass dry-erase desktop whiteboard you can write your important reminders and "I CAN'T FORGET" notes on instead of using scraps of paper.
The environment will even thank you for reducing your paper use. The whiteboard also comes with a dry-erase marker, accessory channel (to hold the marker), and a storage drawer.
Promising review: "Saw this on TikTok and had to get it. I was using way too many post-its, and this is so much easier for quick notes! It works better when you have a desktop vs. a laptop (personally — I've used it for both), but it's still super helpful. I wish it came with more than one marker though."—Rachael McGovern
Get it from Amazon for $31.43+ (available in five styles).
3. Or a similar version with a secret — it actually opens to reveal storage inside. You'll have a place to keep your dry erase markers and other accessories so your desk doesn't feel so cluttered.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and had to buy it. It comes in a few different colors and from different brands, but this one is the best, in my opinion. It opens up for storage and comes with a few different colors whiteboard markers and a little eraser. Does take up a bit of desk space, but it’s worth it." —AJ
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in 11 colors).
4. A monitor stand here to give your screen a little ~lift~ so it's closer to eye level, thus helping with eye and neck strain during the day. This one is also designed with a storage drawer *and* a place to set your phone or tablet.
Promising review: "I'd seen this product circling around on TikTok, and I had to have it for my computer monitor. It fits perfectly. It's sturdy and made to last for sure. Love it." —Shauna LaNette Cordle
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two colors).
5. Wireless Bluetooth earbuds reviewers confirm are *great* AirPod alternatives, but at a fraction of the cost. With stellar noise cancellation, this means you can tune out the construction your neighbors have been doing since 8 a.m. and actually focus on your work...
The earbuds come in a wireless charging case with up to 30 hours of charge. The earbuds themselves can play for up to six hours on a full charge. You also get different sized silicone tips to make sure these fit your ear perfectly.
Promising reviews: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port, so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing, and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Kate Arnold
"I love these earbuds! The sound quality and noise canceling is super great, especially working from home and tuning out the little ones. I use them all the time during work, working out, riding my mower, or just to give me some alone time with whatever I'm watching. Totally recommend them!" —Eugenia
Get it from Amazon $21.99+ (available in five colors).
6. A mug warmer specifically designed to only turn on when you set a cup on it. That way you can keep your coffee or tea warm for hours so you can sip at your leisure and not worry about accidentally leaving it on when you head out for your midday walk around the neighborhood.
Promising reviews: "Saw it on TikTok: worth the hype. Bought this for my boyfriend. Plan to buy one for my coworker, and I need one too! Great gift for teachers on your nice list this Christmas." —Gabriela Eldredge
"I drink coffee pretty much all day, especially during the fall and winter. It was a hassle to go back and forth to the kitchen at work to warm my coffee. I saw this product and thought I’d try it and I absolutely LOVE it. It has a weight sensor so it turns on when you place your cup on the top plate and turns off when the cup is lifted. I use it at work daily. I also think you could place a candle in a glass container on the warmer and it would work as well. My coffee is never too hot. It’s perfect. The only CON is that I wish it had a longer cord so I could move to a different spot on my desk." —Kim_bur_lee
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in four styles).
7. A wireless keyboard and mouse set to bring some color (and life) to your work setup and also make it a little easier to actually get your work done because your hands don't have to feel so cramped typing on your small laptop keyboard.
The set includes a wireless keyboard and a wireless mouse with a USB receiver. Pick up some AA batteries — both will need them!
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. The color is EVERYTHING. It's so cute and matches/brightens up my work space so well. The typing noise isn't too loud, but it is just loud enough to be satisfactory for me (I love typing noises). I am in love with it. So easy to hook up to my work computer! I cannot recommend it enough!!" —Abigail
Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in 12 colors).
8. A Rocketbook smart reusable notebook that takes your handwritten notes and makes them digital so when your boss asks for a recap of that meeting in your one-on-one, you can send it as an attachment and look super on top of everything.
Promising review: "I saw this product recommended on TikTok, and I was a little hesitant about it actually working. I have had some time since opening it for Christmas to mess with it, and I have to say I really love it! The pen writes nicely on the paper, and it wipes away easily with the wet microfiber cloth that come with it. I am a college student, and this book is a great way to save paper, not carry around five different notebooks in my bag, and all of my notes can be stored on my laptop in one place. Highly recommend, especially if you are a student." —Alana Cooper
Get it from Amazon for $32+ (available in two styles and 16 colors).
9. A cord organizer made to hide that mess of cords below your desk because you have so many parts of your work station that need to be plugged in. Plus, you won't end up getting your foot caught in any of the cords when you take a big stretch in the middle of the day and kick your charger out of the port.
Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok, and have been looking for a way to hide my cords! So easy!!! Love it" —Ashley Napier
"I absolutely love this as a solution for hiding our never-ending wires from two at-home work stations. I love the top which provides a safe and cute platform to easily charge your devices without having to leave them on the floor. I will be buying a second one." —Barbara Konchinski
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three colors).
10. Cleaning putty to get deep into your keys and clean up every last crumb that made its home there when you decided to have a snack during your all-hands meeting. But this cleaning putty goes beyond your computer: you can also use it to pick up small crumbs, pet hair, and dust lodged into your car air vents or other tight spaces that are usually so difficult to clean.
Promising review: "This product does exactly what it says it does. I recently got a new car and was looking for something to easily put I up dust. I saw this product from TikTok. I was surprised at how easily it picks up dust and small debris, especially from inside of vents and cup holders. It’s also great for the though screen in my car! The only complaint is the very artificial smell when you use it. It doesn’t last, just when it’s out of the container!" —DreamyOne
Get it from Amazon for $6.88.
11. An adjustable wood shelf you can put next to your computer and keep any books or materials you need close by and at the ready.
Promising reviews: "I was running out of space for my books, and this was a perfect fix!! Easy to use and fit perfectly on top of my bookshelf. I saw this on TikTok and would definitely recommend!" —Barbara Zurowski
"I needed some extra shelf space for my home office, especially now that we are working from home for the rest of the year. This was so so simple to set up and holds everything I need without any issues. You can also assemble it as you please, which is a great feature!" —TanzA
Get it from Amazon for $20.78+ (available in six colors).
12. A dry-erase sticker board designed to turn any surface into a place where you can write notes. You can stick this to the wall or even your desk and use it to help you jot down reminders, to-do lists, or just doodle.
You can stick this to basically any surface and can cut it to any size. The adhesive on the back means you can easily remove it (without damaging the surface) and move it to a different spot. It also includes an eraser and three dry-erase markers (one blue, one black, and one red).
Promising reviews: "TikTok made me buy it! I got the clear one, and I can pretty much 'hide' it when I don’t wanna see it. The roll is really long, you can have three to four calendar size cuts so that’s amazing! It came with three markers and a cloth." —RN
"This item is PERFECT for WFH. I wanted a white board of sorts, but I wanted it to blend in with my room. This product is such a smart solution!!! It blends right in to my desk! Big fan." —Allison
Get it from Amazon for $7.80+ (available in three colors).
13. A mini ladybug vacuum handy to keep at your desk so you have a way to easily (and quickly) clean up crumbs or eraser scraps while you work. Plus, just look how cute it is!!
Promising reviews: "Saw this product on a TikTok and just had to get it. Perfect for cleaning up after my kids at the table! Gets all the crumbs they leave behind." —Jenn B
"Got it for my work-from-home space (which is a couch with a roll-y laptop desk that sees lots of snacking). It picked up all the crumbs off my couch and in the crevices and coffee table. WFH space essential." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four colors).
14. A productivity time management tool because sometimes you just need to put your phone away and focus on your to-do list. This timer is a great way to visually see how long you've been working, and it will let you know when it's time to take a break (and venture to the kitchen for a snack).
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising reviews: "This visual timer has been a blessing for setting time boundaries for my toddler AND myself! I. Love. This. Saw a suggestion for it on TikTok and knew I needed it for myself and my child. It's so easy to set and easy to see. I use it to set boundaries for my 3-year-old, like 20 minutes to bedtime, 15 minutes until we leave, 20 minutes left of TV time, etc. He loves setting the timer, can tell how many minutes he has left, and it's ended almost all the fights for transitions. And I've started using it for myself for the suggestion I saw on TikTok to set a timer for the things I disliked doing, or that I've been unable to devote focused time to. With this timer I'm taking little bites out of issues that plague me, and I'm allowing myself to accept that if the 15 minutes I put into it today isn't enough, it's OK because I have 15 minutes tomorrow. And actually SEEING that big blue 15 minutes on the clock go down from across the room is PRICELESS! It makes time feel less weighty." —JDillon
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 11 colors).
15. A flexible power strip designed with a five-foot extension cord you can swivle and twist exactly to your liking. This is great if you have a small workspace but still have a lot of electronics that need to be plugged in.
iJoy is a small business that sells tech accessories, speakers, and headphones.
Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok, so I ordered one. I absolutely love it. Everyone needs one in their life." —Dani Jo Stengsar
"I rarely write a review (this is the second in the past few years). One of the best purchases in a long time. Nice design and very practical. It solves all of my problems as it can go any direction. It's worth every penny. I turned around and bought two more. I am about to buy my fourth one. Love this!" —Pond P.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in four colors).
16. An ultra-thin webcam blocker because working from home can be a lot, and sometimes you just need the privacy (and security) so your coworkers won't see you gobbling down your lunch during the meeting.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "I’m one of those who never leaves a review but this deserves one. I bought this for my new MacBook M1 after reading horror stories how other products cracked/broke MacBooks because of the stickiness on them and not being able to be removed, and I have to say I am so happy I went with this one! I read reviews how they’re not super sticky and are thin, but they are everything I wanted. They’re not to a point where I feel like I can wipe them off but they are sticky enough where I feel comfortable keeping it on until I want to change colors without a ton of force. They’re also thin enough to comfortably close my computer. And no, they’re not see-through." —Tiffany
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $5.99+ (available in six varieties).
17. A super sleek insulated tumbler to keep you hydrated while still looking stylish. It keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours because sometimes you need an emotional support water bottle to help you get through the day when your only coworker is the plant sitting next to you.
Plus, you can also use it to keep hot drinks hot. It comes with two reusable straws and flip-top lids!
Promising reviews: "Another 'TikTok made me do it' purchase. I love this tumbler. This is the most gorgeous simple tumbler you could get. It comes with two different lids, one for straws, and one for sipping. It also comes with two plastic straws but you can use stainless steel ones instead if desired. The cup keeps your drinks cold or hot and is fairly durable. Although the straw lid is not 'spill proof' it is fairly resistant. My 2-year-old loves to carry it around and use the straw, it usually doesn't leak if it's knocked over! Overall the wait for this particular color is well worth it and I plan to buy more!" —Sinaxis
"LOVE!!! This is exactly what we wanted — a cup that truly keeps cold drinks cold, with ice. It lasts 24 hours+. We have tried, at friend's recommendations, Tervis, Yeti, and generic store brands, and they — even Yeti!!! — were fails compared to this Simple Modern. Everything about it is outstanding: the color, the size, fit, feel, no spills or troubles, and ICE cold retention (the most important feature). We haven't tried it on hot but since it's so trustworthy in cold, we're certain it keeps hot HOT, too." —Doreen Bowler
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in five sizes and 36 colors and patterns).
18. A hidden desktop drawer you can attach to the bottle of any desk (it has adhesive on it) so you have an inconspicuous place to put all your pens, dry-erase markers, or anything else that doesn't have a home.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "I use these under my work space to contain all the little items that I use constantly, like my pens, nail clipper, emery boards, markers, small Post-it notes, lip balm, letter opener, etc. They keep the items right where I need them and off my workspace. The only problem I have with them is that they stick and I have to push hard to close them. Otherwise, I really like them." —Cathy Johnson
Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.99.
19. An under-desk electric treadmill perfect for anyone who has been DEEP in walking pad TikTok for months now and is finally ready to take the plunge. Reviewers love this option because it has an LED display that shows the time, speed, and distance, a quiet motor, and Bluetooth capabilities so you can play music through it. You'll be able to get all your steps in so you can sit back and actually relax after work.
See it in action in this TikTok here. The speed range is 0.5–6mph, and it can hold up to 220 pounds.
Promising review: "This thing is awesome. I'm a small, not technical person, and managed to haul this thing up two flights of stairs (slowly), unbox, turn on, and even connect my phone to the Bluetooth in it. No assembly. Simple instructions. Distance and time measurements seem to be accurate, but the 'calories' might be missing a decimal point. No squealing or groaning under my walking. Not too loud. Slides right under my bed. Didn't need to adjust the belt, though the tool to do so is included. The packaging says to oil every 30 hours. The remote is needed to make the treadmill function. It is extremely cheap — like dollar store cheap. I hope the company has a remote replacement for if/when the remote bites it. Even still, I would 100% buy this again. Great treadmill!" —Crowells
Get it from Amazon for $289.99+ (available in three colors).
20. And a Flexispot standing desk that can be adjusted so you can raise or lower it when it's time to use the walking pad or just sit for a bit. It's big enough to hold two monitors and a laptop and has a 132-lb weight capacity.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "This has definitely been in a game changer for WFH. I've always wanted a standup desk, but they've either been too expensive, too chunky, or not simple enough. I love this Flexispot desk because of the variety of options in sizes, leg colors, top colors and materials. I'm super picky with what furniture I bring into my home. I want all the pieces to be aesthetically pleasing, and in the office specifically, I want the pieces of furniture to be functional and serve a purpose. I recommend two people putting the pieces together, as the pieces are pretty heavy. This standing desk has helped with my back and retaining focus for longer periods of time. Being able to change from a sitting to standing position has helped set the pace for my work environment." —Amazon Customer
Get the 48x24" size from Amazon for $179.99 (available in five sizes and six colors).
21. *AND* A wire cable basket that slips right on to the back of the desk so you have a place to keep all your cables. This way, they won't get in the way when you move the desk up or down. Everything will stay plugged in and charged. Now I can't promise that will also happen for your productivity...
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "Great addition to my standing desk set-up. Easy to put together once you figure out the proper ends. Also functional and wide enough to hold a double row surge protector. Highly recommend!" —BizBossJess
Get a set of two from Amazon for $20.99.
22. Some Gobbles, which are a set of stretchy and squishy balls that stick to almost any surface (without leaving behind a residue). These are great for anyone who needs a fidget toy to keep their hands busy while in endless meetings. You can even throw them at the walls and ceilings and see how long they stay up there, as many TikTok-ers are trying.
Reviewers do mention that these pick up dust and dirt pretty easily, but they can easily be washed with just a little bit of soap and water.
See them in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "I bought a six pack for my neurodivergent family. We are all either ADHD or autistic. I struggle with compulsive hair pulling and bought these to help keep my hands busy. They are the perfect size, more satisfying than a stress ball, clean easily, fun to hurl at the wall or ceiling, and so far have lasted very well. I did test the durability of one and did break one when I pulled it as hard as I could — the inside looks something like shaving cream and didn’t smell or anything. But if you have a kid who is an aggressive chewer, perhaps keep an eye on them." —Amazon Customer
Get a set of six from Amazon for $10.69.
23. An armless desk chair reviewers love because not only is it super comfortable, but it's also wide enough that you can sit cross-legged without your knees hitting an arm rest. It also reclines up to 120 degrees, the height can be adjusted, and the PU leather is waterproof, which means easy cleaning if you accidentally spill your morning coffee on it.
See it in action on TikTok here.
Promising review: "This chair is unique because it has a large, wide seat that allows you to sit in different positions including cross-legged. It is also supremely comfortable with the quality of cushions. I'm 5'8" and, I find it spacious with an appropriate amount of height adjustability for feet on the ground. So far great for all-day office use!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $179.99 (available in five styles).
24. A wall charger with six outlets *and* two USB fast-charging ports to keep all your devices and accessories at 100% and so they won't die in the middle of that team meeting.
Promising reviews: "Better than any strip! I saw this on TikTok, and it’s everything. I love the auto night-light feature. So versatile and compact. It's worth every penny. I will be ordering more." —Kellie
"I've been WFH now for over a year now, and as an analyst, I use 3 monitors. The cords have always been annoying on the floor, plugged into a power cord outlet. With this, the cords are off the floor and zip tied out of my way. I plan on purchasing more of these outlets to replace all power outlets in my home." —LadyLotus
Get it from Amazon for $17.97.
25. A laptop stand to bring your laptop up to eye level, thus helping with eye strain *and* freeing up some space on your desk. It also has an open-back design to give your laptop proper airflow (so it won't do that thing where it sounds like a plane is about to take off).
See it in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "I first saw these on TikTok and ordered one because of how high up they put your laptop, especially when you're using a monitor. This allows you to use both screens and they are almost at the same height. I have an HP and a MacBook Pro, and it works great for both of them." —Melinda
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in silver and black).
26. A rolling desk bike that will be one of the best multitasking products you own. You can knock out your work and exercises at the same time, which means you can do so many other things after you've closed your laptop.
Not only is the rolling desk bike compact, but it's also height adjustable to make it fit perfectly for you. The pedaling is also quiet, there's eight resistance levels, and it will track your mileage, rpm, and more.
Promising review: "I saw this in TikTok, and I bought it. No regrets! I’ve used this almost daily since I got it. I’m moving way more than I did before. The table top part is a little loose, but that might be from me leaning on it too much. It wasn’t originally like that. I haven’t looked into tightening it. 10 out of 10 recommended for someone who looking to move more!!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $341.99+ (available in three colors).
27. A Takeya cold brew maker so you can easily pour yourself a glass at 3 p.m. when you normally might have taken a trip to the nearest coffee shop.
Plus, it's so easy to make! Just add six tablespoons of your favorite coffee in the filter, fill it with water, and let it sit in your fridge for 24 hours. Then just take the filter out of the pitcher and enjoy your coffee!
Promising review: "I LOVE this product so much! I drink iced coffee on the daily, but the system I had just wasn't cutting it for me. I didn't know how to brew cold coffee at home (all we have is a Keurig, and there's no cold brew option), so I would go buy iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts every morning. Now don't get me wrong, I love my Dunkin Donuts, but I wanted to find a way to be able to make that same iced coffee at HOME. I think my wallet and gas tank wanted me to figure that out too. I found out about this product through TikTok, and it is a GAME CHANGER. All you have to do is put coffee grounds in the filter, fill up the main compartment three-quarters full with water (I use water from my fridge), screw the filter into the lid, screw the lid shut, shake it a little to put the coffee grounds to work, and let it do its magic for 12–24 hours! This is probably the best investment I've ever made. You need this!!" —Carmen E
Get it from Amazon for $23.80+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

28. And a transforming office perfect for anyone who lives in a tiny apartment or home where space is limited — the desk and chair fit inside the filing cabinet. When you clock out on Friday afternoon, you don't have to be reminded of work the whole weekend.

Promising review: "I’ve had this desk for a couple of weeks, and it’s great in my studio apartment. I tuck it away on weekends beside my couch and use the desk both with the chair and a standing desk that I put on top. I’m happy with this purchase, having extra storage built-in and that it’s on wheels to easily put away." — JESSICA H.
