The Ergotron LX is the monitor arm working professionals quietly converge on after they get tired of cheap arms drooping under heavy panels. It's not the cheapest option, but it's the one you'll still be using in ten years.
The Herman Miller Ollin is the monitor arm you buy when the Ergotron LX is 'good enough but not quite.' It floats with the lightest touch we've tested in any arm, and the Herman Miller build quality is unmistakable.
The Huanuo Dual is the cheap dual monitor arm that actually works. At $79 for a two-monitor mount rated to 27 inches per panel, it's a tenth the price of the Ergotron LX Dual and survives daily use without creeping.
The Aeron has been the chair-of-record for working professionals since 1994, and the 2016 Remastered version is the best it's ever been. It is genuinely worth the price — but only if you size it correctly and only if you sit in it for at least six hours a day.
The Steelcase Gesture is the only office chair designed specifically for the way modern laptop users actually sit — cross-legged, on your side, leaning forward over a 13-inch screen. Its adjustable arms move in ways no other chair allows.
The Branch Ergonomic Chair is the cheapest office chair with real adjustable lumbar support. At $329 it's a third the price of a Herman Miller Aeron and covers the basics the Aeron charges premium for.
The Keychron Q1 is the keyboard that finally made the enthusiast mechanical scene accessible without forcing you to source individual parts from a group buy. Gasket-mounted, fully programmable via QMK and VIA, and it sounds incredible out of the box.
The Logitech MX Keys is the wireless keyboard that has quietly become the productivity standard at every tech company we've worked with. It's not flashy, it's not mechanical, and it's exactly what most people who type for a living should be using.
The Keychron K2 is the $89 mechanical keyboard we recommend to anyone buying their first mechanical board. 75% layout, hot-swap PCBs, wireless or wired, and mainstream Gateron switches — it's the honest entry point to mechanical typing.
The Logitech MX Master 3S is the wireless productivity mouse that has genuinely become the default at every tech company we've visited. It fixed the one flaw of the MX Master 3 (the loud clicks) and kept everything else that made it great.
