The only thing as 'minimalist' as this desk is its sale price. You love to see it! (Amazon)
Fall has settled in nicely and Halloween is less than a month away — that means the holidays (can I hear a "hooray!"?) will be here before you can say "Boo!" If you've got guests coming to help you celebrate, particularly guests who also have jobs, Amazon's got just the thing to help make their working vacation a bit easier: the GreenForest Folding Desk. Right now, this little hospitality helper is just $60, down from $100 — that's 40% off.
Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this top-seller is cordless for even more convenience.
One Yahoo editor gave it a try, writing, "While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn't just 'go off' if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It's also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done."

An air fryer is just the ticket when you want a hot meal without turning on the oven. This top-rated model heats up quickly and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. This price is one of the best we've seen it marked down to.

One Yahoo editor awarded this blade the title of best budget chef's knife after testing a slew of them. She says, "When I started culinary school, I was issued a curated set of knives and tools we would need to work with through our 600 hours of training in order to graduate. This Mercer Culinary chef's knife was the one we received that day and what we would use for 90% of our daily tasks. That should give you an idea of what this knife is capable of — and of its durability.
The Genesis may not be a flashy knife, but it is a real workhorse in the kitchen. This Western-style knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon German steel and features a handle made from Santoprene (a rubbery material) that ensures a firm grip even in damp hands."
It only dropped lower in price once this year ... so chop chop!
Been in a bit of a slump (literally)? Having a supportive yet comfortable work chair can help improve your posture while relieving pressure. This one has a curved shape that's meant to conform to your back, while the base of the seat offers lumbar support to help take some pressure off. Hey, your job might cause a lot of stress, but your bum's resting place shouldn't!
Mesh backing allows for increased airflow and breathability for added comfort, and you'll be able to recline and rock back at a customized angle that feels good to you. Prefer to sit cross-legged? Just flip up the armrests so they're not in the way.
Practical, sleek and foldable with no assembly required, this workstation's ready to get on the job when you are.
At $60 for the Walnut color, this is the lowest price we've seen for it since May, and we don't expect the price to drop lower anytime soon. That means if you're expecting holiday guests, you're not going to want to wait too long to get their accommodations in shape. It comes in four other colors — all on sale — including Black, White, Brown and Oak, but the Walnut option is the best deal.
If there's one thing (to be fair, there were many things) we learned during the pandemic, it's that every inch counts in your living space and it's easy for work to take it over — but this space-saving superhero lets you put the day behind you even if you work from home. The same goes when you're working remotely at someone else's house.
Whether you're shopping for yourself or your guest room, this desk takes the stress out of making room for your laptop. It's just over 31 inches high and the work surface is 22 x 27.3 inches with a little shelf for decorations or doodads. It has a sleek and simple design that lets you fold it up and tuck it away where it can't be seen at a moment's notice. To make your life even easier: It comes fully assembled.
Let's put it this way: It seems that Amazon reviewers have already been busily tapping away at this desk ... to the tune of 9,000 five-star reviews.
"Easy for a flexible space," shared one of them, who found it convenient in a whole nother way come houseguest time. "This works perfectly. It fits well between a pair of windows without interference with the sills, is standard comfortable desk height and folds completely flat to store behind a door when guests are here. It’s sized well to accommodate a laptop, peripheral and a notebook comfortably but not so large to be cumbersome."
"Perfect solution to a hybrid office," echoed this savvy shopper. "My WFH office is in a guest bedroom where when guests are over I don't want the room taken over by my desk. This was a perfect solution. So easy to pop down and store. Also easy to move to other parts of the house. Don't let the foldable aspect make you think it's like a TV tray or cheap. It's great quality and it looks amazing in my space."
"Perfect for guest room!" another fan gushed. "Needed a workstation for out-of-town guests, and this does the trick. Stores easily in the closet when not needed."
Some otherwise pleased reviewers had some design suggestions.
"Wish it was a smidge heavier," wrote one worker. "This is just a personal preference because of how I sit. I’m worried I’ll knock it over." Said this level-headed shopper: "Love this table; just wish the tiny shelf on top was perfectly flat. Sadly, it's at a slight angle, so you can't really place things on it."
