Top 5 Ergonomic Products for People Who Work From Home
Posted by Human Solution on Mar 1st 2013
Working from home offers tremendous flexibility in several ways. In many cases, people who work from home get to make their own working hours, enjoy freedom from direct oversight, and, perhaps most importantly, they get to choose their own office furniture and decor.
I've worked with many customers who work from home, and matching ergonomic office products to their home office decor is usually a high priority. Thankfully, Human Solution offers many options for those who want to blend function, comfort and style with their home decor.
These are a few of my favorite ergonomic office products I like to recommend to people working from home.
1. Solid Wood Standing Desks - An adjustable height desk, which allows users to move from sitting to standing with ease, is essential for anyone working in a home office. The standing aspect of the desk is a necessity for burning calories, staying active, as well as maintaining focus, flexibility in your limbs, and a healthy metabolism. At home, a desk this gorgeous, with one of our unique wood tops, can double as a unique statement piece. Keep in mind that we can custom design these tops, as well as pair them with any adjustable height base you choose.
2. The UPLIFT Lifespan Treadmill Desk - If you'd like to take it up a notch, add a treadmill to your home to encourage additional calorie burningthroughout your workday. If you work from home, it's possible that you don't walk around your space a lot, since you are probably at your desk working all day instead of walking to meetings or walking over to other co-workers' desks. A treadmill desk will remind you to get up and active while you work. You can also purchase the Lifespan Treadmill as a solo item. Bonus points if you use it to walk while catching up on Hulu!
- 3. Humanscale Diffrient World Chair - People with white or natural tones in their homes gravitate toward this chair, which is available in a white frame and several different mesh and fabric colors. We can't seem to keep the white version in stock our Austin, TX showroom! Humanscale did not sacrifice ergonomic comfort with the stylish World Chair. Its unique mesh back and seat combined with a counterbalance mechanism will support you as you work, in whatever position you choose. The World Chair is also available with a fabric seat.
4. Goldtouch Go! Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard - This ergonomic keyboard is perfect for people who use a laptop and like to work at home or take their work outside the home office every so often. The Goldtouch Go!, which can split and tent so you can get it in the most comfortable position for you, is slim, portable and comfortable. It's perfect for use at home, in a coffee shop or during a meeting on the fly. I also like to pair this keyboard with a wireless Evoluent Vertical Mouse.
5. Humanscale Element Light - This ergonomic task light is ideal for those moments of creative brilliance -- or when you just need to do your due diligence and concentrate. The clean, white, long-lasting LED light is designed to conserve energy and evenly disperse light, so you can read and write with ease.
