Ideal home office setup?

Hi All,

I'm curious, are you working from home more often or going back to the office?
Everyone at my office seems to have basically ghosted the office due to our new flexi hours plan.

So now I'm working at my kitchen table (yikes) which kinda sucks!

Is anyone in a similar situation and what are you using?

I'm looking to convert my spare room into an office space, I looked at a couple of electric desk options that good, but not so sure about the type of chair to pair it with? 

Much Appreciated!

I've got one of these https://standdesk.nz/
with a 32 inch monitor.

Works well, I'd recommend.

Thanks Ryan, I looked at stand desk and Uno, but I wasn' sure if the range was as wide as perhaps office max?

I haven't used the others but standesk is a sturdy product which is high quality and I definitely recommend it. They also have great customer service.

For people who want something more portable and cheaper, in the first lockdown I bought one of these: https://refold.co/

I used it with a pretty heavy computer setup for months, spilt coffee, etc. then lent it to a friend to use when my standesk arrived (the standesk was stuck on a container ship somewhere for months when all the ports were closed at the start of the pandemic) and that refold desk is still going strong. It surprised me, and is a really good portable option for a spare room as it can be folded away if you have visitors or are back to the office full time.

They're made in Petone so are easy to grab.
