5 Cool Desk Accessory Links
- Novium Hover Pen 2.0
- Thors Hammer Fidget Spinner
- Xiaomi Light Bar
- Odistar Desktop Vacuum Cleaner
- Everlasting Comfort Footrest
1. Novium Hover Pen 2.0
Starting with the Novium Hover Pen 2.0. It caught my attention fast and I thought it would give my desk a nice touch as a novelty item. It also caught other people’s attention when they would walk by my desk. I did find it to be useful and maybe worth the pretty penny. It has a basic pen function, and the quality is great. The cover is also magnetic making it easy to put away.
It can be used almost like a fidget spinner because it bounces around and can keep you busy.
A great benefit to this pen is it’s always accessible on my desk and ready to use; unlike other pens that are hidden away in a drawer and sometimes hard to find. The number of pens I go through and also misplace somehow make this one worth it.
2. Thors Hammer Fidget Spinner
The next cool product I want to introduce is called the Thors Hammer Fidget Spinner. Now this one is pretty unique. I enjoy fidget spinners when I’m watching videos or researching on my computer. When I first bought it, I didn’t know what to expect, I thought maybe it would be a cheaply made toy. According to the reviews, it was good quality and I would have to agree, the hammer was a solid sort of heavy item.
It does come with a rounded fidget spinner as well which I don’t use much, but when I spin the hammer, it spins forever. You can actually remove the handle and just spin the head of the hammer making this a game changer from a normal spinner. I personally like spinning the entire hammer together instead of taking it apart. But of course, you can make that choice for yourself.
3. Xiaomi Light Bar
Additionally, the Xiaomi Light Bar is another interesting product up for grabs. This is the first light bar that I’ve used that has a wireless control. You are able to control it without touching the light bar itself. Normal light bars move around while being adjusted which can be annoying. I love how easy and convenient it is to turn on the light with a simple touch to the puck on the desk. Considering this light bar comes with a wireless control, it still remains affordable for people.
4. Odistar Desktop Vacuum Cleaner
Moving onto the Odistar Desktop Vacuum Cleaner. I thought it would come in handy to clean my nasty keyboard that builds up with grime over time. Unfortunately, it ended up working better on every other surface besides my keyboard. I noticed it worked okay with a keyboard that’s keys sat lower, but the ones that were higher up not so much. I realized this little device cleaned my felt desk pad like a charm. Before it, I could never find a good way of cleaning it.
5. Everlasting Comfort Footrest
Lastly, I have the Everlasting Comfort Footrest. This is a wonderful product for when you have to sit at your desk for long periods of time. It is a teardrop shape and cushioned. It compares to the Sitmatic Footrest, which is not cushioned, but the same idea. Both give the option to rock it back and forth, so your feet aren’t sitting in one spot for too long. With the Everlasting Footrest, you don’t have to wear shoes because it gives your feet cushion and comfort. It also has a zip off cover for easy machine wash.
Bottom Line
Overall, there are many desk accessories out there that I’ve tried for my desk setup that I have liked and disliked in my time in the industry. I hope this guide can help you when choosing the best accessories for your desk.
