Over the last few years, more and more people have made the transition to working from home. And while it’s pretty great, it can be hard to get certain tasks done without the essentials. Whether you’re new to WFH or have been doing so for a while, these are some must-haves every home office should have.

A good webcam is essential for those who participate in a lot of virtual meetings, and this one from Logitech doesn’t disappoint.

Uperfect Truely 4K Portable Computer Monitor ($359.99, shop here)
If you spend a lot of time in front of your computer with multiple windows open at a time, you could probably benefit from an additional monitor.

This ergonomic office chair can easily be rolled under your desk when you’re not working, but that’s not the best part. This specially designed chair forces you to keep your spine upright and engage your core. After long-term use, you should notice that your back muscles have strengthened and your circulation has improved.
