Like it or not, the majority of us are spending at least 40 hours of every week at a desk. While we might not be able to do much about that time, we may be able to do something about that desk. NextDesk, the Texas-based power-adjustable standing desk company, has a new look and a new name, and hopefully, a new workstation that will make those 40 hours go by a little easier. Meet XDesk and its new product line, XDesk Vintage.

Five years after its initial launch, XDesk now has more than 12,000 desk combinations with various materials, finishes, and accessories available for customers to completely personalize their workspace. And moving forward, the company is looking toward even greater levels of customization. As XDesk Director Jamie Fertsch noted, “Listening to our customers shaped the new direction for XDesk. We no longer need to tell our customers that standing desks will help them burn more calories or help with a bad back — they already know that! XDesk customers are seeking desks that can make daily life and mundane tasks easier, faster and as hassle-free as possible, and that’s where customization and personalization plays a huge role.”

Enter the XDesk Vintage line, comprised of four new desk models (the Copland, Porter, Wynstone, and Dalton) and coordinating bookshelves, cabinets, and accessories. All of these new products draw inspiration from vintage and industrial furniture designs, with a focus on longevity. All of these pieces are said to be created with sustainable woods and solid steel (and like the rest of XDesk’s line, are made and manufactured in the United States). All these desks also have optional tech add-ons, including Harmon Kardon sound systems, built-in USB and audio ports, and additional storage.

Of course, the new desks also transform seamlessly into standing desks, with lifting columns that promise increased strength, stability, and speed. Plus, the desk’s Active Safety Protection sensor system claims to detect obstacles and automatically reverse the movement of a desk if any danger is detected.

The XDesk Vintage line is available for purchase with desks starting at $4,485 and accessories (like the company’s filing cabinets, bookshelves, and more) starting at $590.

The Govee Icicle Lights.

Keen to make your home this holiday season look fantastic? If you’re aiming for a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation style appearance but want it smarter, you need more than just the Philips Hue deals going on.

They make the outside of your home look gorgeous while being super practical. Here’s all you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Govee Icicle Lights
I love Govee products. Since buying the Govee Lyra Smart Floor Lamp, I’ve been consistently impressed by how well its products work while being very keenly priced. It’s a different kind of technology than the best cheap smart light bulbs but it’s perfect for stringing together some lights around your home or room. The only downside is the company's app isn't as stylish as the Hue one but you get all the same benefits for a much better price.

Philips hue white and color ambiance light bulbs in box.

When it comes to smart home tech, one of the top brands that comes to mind for smart lighting is Philips Hue. Designed for plug-and-play connectivity, Philips Hue devices are easy to set up and a breeze to control. And if you’re operating a Hue Bridge, you’ll be able to control up to 50 different Hue products! Philips Hue deals can be a little hard to come by, which is why we’ve chosen to highlight this great Best Buy offer. Right now, when you purchase the Philips Hue A19 White and Color Ambiance (3-Pack), you’ll only pay $80. At full price, this model sells for $135.

Why you should buy the Philips Hue A19 White and Color Ambiance (3-Pack)
While investing in a Hue Bridge will unlock the full capabilities of your Philips Hue system, this A19 White and Color Ambiance (3-Pack) can be controlled over Bluetooth, too. Do keep in mind this introduces range and device limitations, though, so going Wi-Fi might be a top consideration regardless. Not to mention, you’ll be able to control your Hue system remotely (Bluetooth relies on a host device to be nearby).
