Whether you occupy a cubicle, as I have for many years, an office with a door and a window, a home office, or are in the ever-popular open office, making that workspace a better place to spend your time is paramount.

And if you are starting a new job it’s imperative to know what to bring on your first day of work. Some of the cool gadgets below you might want to add to the list.

I came up with a list of the best office gadgets that I use in my cubicle and home office. If you want to go straight to the item on Amazon just click on the image or the caption. These are really in no particular order.

We all have smartphones today. I found this really cool Honsky Thumbs-Up Smart Phone Stand Holder that is really low profile but it does the job perfectly in my office. They also come in many different colors so you should be able to find one that suits your fancy.

I found it on Amazon for $9.99 which is short money. It’s unique and serves a purpose in the office. You have plenty of other options but this one is reasonably-priced and does the job.

Staying cool in the office can be a challenge. This small Arctic Breeze USB Desk Fan works well for me. All you have to do is plug it into any live USB plug and you’re cool in a few.

And there’s no chance of injury as the blades are plastic and lightweight. You can stop the blades with your fingers! You can pick one up for $9.75 on Amazon. I have another desk fan in the list at #7 if you want one that has multiple speeds and plugs into an electrical socket.

13. Bose QC30 Noise-Cancelling BlueTooth Earbuds

I decided a while back to make a fairly expensive investment in a set of wireless headphones from Bose. These Bose QC30 Noise-Cancelling Wireless Headphones are a step above any other earbuds that I own. I oftentimes attend conference calls for my work via GoToMeeting and connect to my phone for audio.

These wireless headphones are worth every penny. If you have a similar need when it comes to your work or simply for pleasure listening, these Bose headphones will do the job better than any other wireless headphones around.

For many years I always thought it would make sense to have a label maker at my disposal in my cubicle or home office. Years ago a coworker of mine was raving about his Brother P-touch Label Maker.

So I finally bit the bullet about a month ago and bought a the model PTM95 which, to be honest, is one of the more reasonably-priced models that Brother has to offer. I basically wanted to label the drawers in my Perch Monitor Stand, which I describe in this article as well as adding some labels to my metal file cabinets.

9. AFROG Multifunctional LED Desk Lamp

With the advent of LED desk lamps there are a lot from which to choose. What I particularly like is that they are multi-functional like the AFROG LED Desk Lamp seen above.

It includes a fast wireless charger for your cell phone, 7 brightness levels, 5 lighting modes, foldable design, and an auto timer. No need to have a single-function desk lamp in your office any longer.

There is also a video in the article that shows you how it works.

If you want to get a low profile, really cool office gadget for your own desktop at work or in your home office, this one is worth the reasonable investment.

It comes in 6 different colors and the one I chose is white which you can see here. You can click on the image to see all of the different colors.

What I really like about this fan is that it has 2 different speeds and the blades are made out of a cloth material which makes it very safe, even for children.

I bought this Crock-Pot Food Warmer a few years ago because I was tired of using a gross, dirty microwave at work. What’s so great about this food warmer is that you can just fill the inside container with leftovers from the night before, bring it into work, and just clean it after you’re done eating it. So, you only have to bring home the inside container and not the whole food warmer.

This article includes a video of me using it in my office cubicle so you can get a good idea of how it works. They also sell a larger, 24 oz version if you feel that the 20 oz version isn’t large enough for your appetite. This is one of my favorite cool office supplies!

3. Page-Up Document Holder

They made these very stylish as they come in various colors like this one in translucent blue. They also come in grey, purple, and translucent red. It’s a cool little office gadget that not only looks really cool but serves a purpose!

I have purchased a few different types of wireless earbuds in the past few years and I really like them especially when I’m working out, taking a walk, or on my bike.

Some of the cool features of these earbuds are a battery that will allow 12 hours of listening time, four eartip options for a form fit, extended wireless range, on-device controls for music, calls, and voice assistant, and a built-in microphone. You can use these on a Zoom call, making a phone call, or just listening to music or a podcast.

Wireless charging is a fairly new phenomenon in the world of smart phones. The Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charger Stand shown here is actually the 2nd incarnation of a wireless charger that I have purchased. The former one laid flat on a surface and this is at an angle upright which makes it easier to see my cell phone.

Please note that the base of the charger is wired into an electric socket but you don’t have to mess with inserting a plug into your cell phone. All you do is place in in the cradle and, if needed, charging will commence until it is 100% charged.
