Promising review: "Perfect! I needed a chair that was higher than most office chairs. And this was it! Perfect! Love the height on it. It's smaller, and will fit in smaller spaces, which is what I needed. The back is padded, so no worries about walls. Strong and sturdy. I am a plus-size gal, and it holds up, no problem! Very stable. I have gotten stuck, rolling from floor to rug, and no tipping." —Julie Healon

Promising review: "Are you KIDDING ME??? This is the best dang thing that has happened to my butt since Mama rubbed it with Johnson's Baby Lotion! The cushion keeps its form and is so comfortable! I grabbed it on a whim, when I was about to drive on a two-hour car drive...what a world of difference this cushion was....I could actually stand up out of the car, without unfolding myself, when I got to my destination. Do yourself a favor and get one of these!" —Cbkirkland

Promising review: "The design is sleek and minimalist. I'm prone to clutter, so this shelf gives me a place to put things intentionally so that I don't get overwhelmed in my workspace. I also like that it only took about 10 minutes to fully assemble. If you've ever made your own IKEA furniture before, no need to fear; you'll do fine." —Mary Anne Layus

Promising review: "I saw this monitor stand in my coworker’s office, so I ordered it too. I’ve been using it for a week and love it. It holds my everyday essentials as well as my cup of tea. It’s well built and my keyboard can slide underneath it at the end of the day. I like the height it gives to my monitor. No regrets!" —Cynthia

Promising review: "Love this little spoon! It fits perfectly on the edge of my coffee mug. Now I no longer have to go searching for a spoon to stir my morning coffee! Since it sits on the edge of the cup, my fingers don't get sticky from a wet handle. Plus, it's absolutely adorable and makes me think of my own kitty while I'm away at work. This spoon has become an essential part of my morning routine." —Brianna S

Promising review: "I bought these on a whim to cheer up my desk at work. They are adorable and look exactly as pictured! All six pens work and I have no complaints so far. I bought them to take notes, but they're such a fine point I might keep some of them home for drawing... Not sure how long they would hold up for drawing, but they don't bleed at all and they have a finer point than a sharpie pen for little details. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase!" —Hailey

Promising review: "I picked up this speaker on a whim because I needed something little to get me over the $35 limit to qualify for free same-day delivery. (OK, that's completely honest, so you can trust what I'm going to say). I did not have high expectations. In fact, I had pretty low expectations, given my experience with little speakers. When I got the package I was like 'What? This is even tinier than I thought! it's gonna be a little toy and sound terrible! That's what I get for making an impulse purchase.' And then I hooked the little thing up to my phone and OH MY GOD. The sound! Beautiful! Loud, sharp, clear! And it comes in a little zippered pouch thing with a ring that you can then hang it wherever. I am now seriously in love with my new little toy. It is the most awesome thing that has happened to me this week. Yay!" —Donna

Promising review: "This is the BEST LLAMA ever!!!! He is so soft and plush!! His fur is amazing and crumbs are so easy to get out! He is also very big so it is a good value, because some stuffed animals are expensive but small. This llama is also optimal for cuddling and hugging as the shape is quite comfortable. There is also a swirl design on the side of the llama that is very aesthetic. Additionally, the face of the llama is the CUTEST thing ever!!!! He is so adorable and a must-have! He can also stand upright, which is a huge plus." —Nini

Here's what my colleague Mal Mower had to say about hers: "I recently ordered two of these, one of each beloved cat. I sent in a photo each, making sure their faces were clear and forward-facing, and then picked my favorite outfits (there are a ton to chose from)! I can't believe how great the results are. The quality is fantastic and they are laugh out loud funny and fab. I'm a huge fan."

Promising review: "So during this pandemic it is a little hard to go home. I started with the Atlanta candle and now got the Georgia one. The smells definitely take me back and make me miss home a little less. So thanks to this company, you gave me a little taste of home from miles away." —Ahmad Dunn
Get it from Amazon for $34 (available in 51 scents).
Promising review: "SO WORTH IT! It's hard for me to pull the trigger on such a pricey candle, especially when I don't like to actually LIGHT them because of the smoke. But wow. This candle smells so amazingly strong and fresh that I've never even lit it! I kept it in my panties drawer until it smelled so strongly that I then moved it to a closet, which is now smelling awesome! I realize it's not meant to be an air freshener, but it works perfectly for that purpose and it is such a light, airy fragrance that smells so fresh and clean! Reminds me of the scent of Dendrobiums! I LOVE this candle and it looks great next to my orchid by the bath tub!!" —Sj773

Promising review (for the ladybug): "Works as described. I keep it on my office desk to help clean off crumbs and dust. It's no louder than a hairdryer and has decent suction; sucks up crumbs and dust without any problem. I have also used it on my craft table to suck up glitter and other small paper scraps and again worked seamlessly. Great little gadget to have on hand in several situations. Might just get another." —D. Phillips

This color-changing diffuser and humidifier comes with seven mood lights, each of which can be used in bright or dim mode. It also has an auto-off feature, so it'll shut off once you run out of water.
Promising review: "This little guy is great! I wanted a low-profile diffuser and this fits the bill. I like the option of using the multi-colored lights, although more often I just keep the light off as I use it mainly at night for sleeping. When I get sick, a mix of eucalyptus, peppermint, and lavender in there is a godsend. There are multiple functions for constant scent or intermittent scent. Packs a large punch for such a small machine, and well worth the price. I'm considering getting multiple for multiple rooms." —FranklySpeaking
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in five styles).
Promising review: "I bought these lights to light a wall in my office. They provide such a lovely ambient glow to the whole room. They aren't too bright for the space, and I don't feel the need for a harsh overhead light. I'm even considering a second set to use in our guest room. I can't speak to how well they work outdoors but they're spectacular for indoor use. Overall the quality for the price is fantastic." —Roxi

Promising review: "On a whim I decided to buy this, figuring that because I sit staring at my computer enough I might as well make it pretty. Plus touching the keypad all day makes me realize how gross it gets and what a pain it is to clean. This solves both problems — so cute and bright. It makes me smile just lift it off and wipe off to clean. Totally worth it!" —Elissa Ruback
