9 Essentials for a Home Office Space That Puts You in the Working Mood
Key takeaways If you work from home, creating a dedicated work space is a must. Don't just gut it out from your couch or kitchen table. Moderately priced buys like a foot rest, greenery, and natural light go a long way. We're team standing desk and share our favorite pick below. Working from home is a whole vibe. I confess, for better or worse, I'm a proud millennial, 'I just wanna work in leggings and set my own hours,' pre-pandemic remote work aficanado. Stereotypes aside, there is an art to working so close to so many distractions — laundry, dishes, 'Friends' reruns, pieces of mail that each represent one more thing on my personal to-do list. I first started working from home in 2016, and 9 years later, I rarely actually wear leggings all day. I have come to appreciate a series of other essentials that have helped me create space to work where I also live and play. Here's what I've learned.

RELATED: FlexiSpot C7 Ergonomic Premium Office Chair Review
Thank you, FlexiSpot, for sending me this E7L Pro L-Shaped Standing Desk in exchange for an honest review. I've used FlexiSpot gear before, including their standing desk converter and the E7 Premium, so when they asked if I wanted to try the L-shaped version, I was all in. More space? More stability? Yes, please. First Impressions (And Heavy Lifting) The E7L Pro L-Shaped Standing Desk showed up in several boxes, including the bamboo desktop (which looks fantastic) and the seriously solid white frame. Heads up: the frame is heavy, which is actually great—it means this thing is built to last. But if you're not into lifting 50+ lbs solo, call in a favor from a friend. The assembly looked a little intense at first glance—there are a lot of parts. But once I found FlexiSpot's video guide, things clicked into place (literally). The process took just over an hour, and that includes time spent staring at screws wondering where I left my Allen wrench. Spoiler: it was in the box. Desk, Meet Real Life Right away, I noticed how roomy this desk is. The L-shape gives you so much surface area—I've got a laptop, second monitor, notepad, a charging station, and somehow still have space for snacks and a plant I'll probably forget to water. Everything fits, and nothing feels crowded. The triple motor system makes raising and lowering the desk super smooth. The controls are super sensitive. You barely have to touch them to activate the thing! I set my sitting and standing presets in seconds, and the desk adjusts with zero wobble. I'm tall, and the E7L actually works for my height—no more slouching or bumping knees on the underside. Bonus features: A built-in USB port on the keypad (love this) A child-lock feature so cats or kids can't mess with your settings Baffles on the underside to keep all the cables neat and tidy So is it worth it? Short answer? Yes. While assembly is a little involved and you will need a friend to lift the thing, it's a serious desk. If you're looking to upgrade your home office or creative space, the E7L is an awesome choice. It's sturdy, smooth, and has way more room than a standard rectangular desk. The design is sharp, the materials feel premium, and the adjustable height range works for all kinds of bodies and workflows. Also: it just feels good to use. I've been standing more, stretching more, and—wildly—actually enjoying my workspace. Add in a 15-year warranty, and you're looking at a smart investment in your daily sanity.
