Working from home; While some have done it regularly, others are facing this for the first time, leading to the question “How do I work effectively?”.
Blending your personal space with office hours can be challenging, especially when having limited time for face-to face colleague interaction. Nagging children in the background, a barking dog fighting for your attention…So many distractions! Times have certainly changed for some of us, and we are happy to provide you a list of gadgets to give you that much needed zen.
Here are our top 7 work from home gadgets:
Headphones
While you can’t send your children away to boarding school right away, you can cancel out their noises by plugging in. For less than £250 in our app, you can enjoy great sound thanks to Apple Airpods Pro. If you like listening to music during work hours, check out this playlist while you’re at it!
Exercise ball
Compared to a regular chair, it is much better for your back as you engage your core more. For the record, it’s also super fun to jump on! (You know it’s true). Find your “office ball” here.
Laptop stand
Sitting by a desk can be draining and we shouldn’t underestimate the effect of the micro-movements that shape our posture. Remembering to keep straight while you work, can be hard. That’s why we recommend you get yourself a flexible laptop stand that saves you from these issues! Wayfair has numerous available, but for a low budget and immediate fix, you can also use books stacked up as high as you need.
Spinning bike with laptop stand
Taking breaks is essential and applies in the same manner when working from home. But what if you could work and have a break at the same time? This spinning bike from Sports Tech allows you to work out while working on your computer! Pretty cool, huh?

It’s mid May already and the heatwaves are on their way. While a fan in the office can cause passive-aggressive temperature-sensitive colleagues (you know exactly who we are talking about!!), working from home gives you the control to turn that fan on and off whenever you like. Being comfortable working is the basis for every productive person, so get yourself a fan from Ikohs that keeps you cool this summer!
