Top 5 Remote Work Tech Essentials Available on Amazon

Noise Canceling Headphones

$39.99

reduced sound as soon as you put it over your ear and it auto-enables noise cancel when you power it on which is great and tells you “Battery high” etc. which is great
* battery life is amazing. Charged it once for like 2-3hours to max and it worked for 15hr flight to and another 15hr flight back and it still said Battery high. I didn’t use it all the time. Maybe for like 60-70% of the time which is still great
* colors are nice and make it look classy.
* it doesn’t cause any issues with the band over the head
* you can use it wired without needing to power it on so it uses extremely little battery
* the controls are fine and the ear muffs are labeled R and L which is a nice touch
* haven’t tested bluetooth range but I figure it is maybe standard of working across a large room
* price is very good for the performance. Sure it is not a Bose ($350+) or JVC ($200+) or some others but for $40-$50 this is truly fantastic.

Cons:
* the one and only con I found is if you plug in the audio jack the noise cancelation turns off immediately which is a shame. So on the plane I was watching a movie where the audio came in nicely but I could hear the little plane hum as well (it was muted but not noise canceled).

Other:
* didn’t test the bass boost but I’m sure it is great.

Overall, I liked it so much I bought 2 of them. My teenage son loved it too and he said they’re really great quality and works well. The next gen opinion is important because typically they will be the supporters of such products en masse”

Top customer review: “I was a little concerned about this chair being that I am only 5’4” and according to the description, this chair is meant for a taller person.
Don’t worry, it fits fine, without issues. I can easily place both feet right on the ground, even being a “short” person. I use a foot rest anyway, so I see no issues if you are shorter using this chair.
This chair is quite comfortable to sit in, with the back being very straight up. This is good and bad. You get lots of support like this, when you want to sit completely straight, but can easily lean back a bit for more comfort, when needed. You easily adjust the tension by the front knob that controls how hard you need to push back to adjust the back rest like most chairs that recline.
Speaking of reclining, this chair reclines pretty far, and is very comfortable.
The head rest you will need to fiddle with to make it custom fit for your head. This is the first time I have used a head rest of this type, and surprised at how comfortable it is. Putting the head rest on, while assembling the chair is the hardest part, and its quite easy to do.
As some others have said, the seat mesh is a little “scratchy”, but you get used to it.
I have found that I like using a cushion on the seat for extended sitting sessions, but you may not need one. The mesh seat is quite comfortable, and sometimes I switch between using a cushion and sometimes not using one. You will have to see what works for you.
One big reason I got this chair is the swing up arms. I prefer these type arms, since you can easily lift them up out of the way, where as other chairs you can’t do this. This makes it easy to push in the chair very close to your desk, saving room.
Customer Service. One word, OUTSTANDING!
I have hard floors at home, and carpet at work. My work place bought me the same chair, so I bought one for home use. I emailed the company and asked about purchasing the roller type wheels for my home chair, and they offered me an additional set for the at work chair, which I didn’t need. They were willing to ship me two sets for free! I declined the one for work, since its carpet and didn’t need a set. Thats great customer service, which is rare now a days. Keep this in mind when shopping for a chair…there are lots out there, and this company stands behind their product.

Assembly – standard for a chair like this, very easy to do, and they provide a simple video to watch. Maybe takes 10 minutes to put together, and you can do it yourself. If you have trouble lifting, you would need some assistance.

Shipping – Chair comes very well packed in a sturdy box, no issues there.

Quality – I did not have any issues with this chair. Very well put together.

Chair options – It leans back pretty far, and with the included head rest, it is quite comfortable to lean back when you are tired for a quick rest, or even a quick, nap. (shhhh…don’t tell the boss) You can lock the angle of the back to exactly where you want it, if you don’t like having to push back to lean the back rest.

So far I am quite happy with this chair. I have never had a full back mesh type chair, and think that this will last quite a while, even with daily use. I think you will be pleased with this purchase. While you may be able to find a similar chair for maybe a little less price, to me, the customer service you get with this purchase is really worth it. You know that they will stand behind your purchase and your being happy with your purchase of their product. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
*update*
Its been 3 months since I purchased this chair and I can tell you 100% no issues with the chair at all. Its quite comfortable, and I would purchase another one, without hesitation. I can be sitting in this chair for long periods of time, with no issues. I do use a small seat cushion, just because I had it left from my previous chair, so might as well make use of it, but its not really needed for this chair. I am completely pleased with this purchase. No chair is perfect, but not being able to get into a chair and sit in it for yourself, shouldn’t sway you from purchasing this. Its very comfortable, and even though I am 5’4″, its perfect in size, and the head rest is great too. Easy to lean back when you are tired and take a quick nap. WFH…shhhhhhhhh….!!”
