Grovemade makes beautiful desk accessories, from laptop stands to pencil holders, many of which we’ve tested here at WIRED and recommend in our home office buying guides. They are typically made of wood with metal and felt accents, and are made completely by hand in Portland, Oregon. That also means that these accessories are expensive. That’s why we’re happy to see Grovemade celebrate its 15th anniversary with sales. It’s valid until June 9, but a separate retirement sale takes 20 percent off some of our favorites that will be phased out at the end of the month.

This stand is made of simple and beautifully shaped wood (walnut or maple) and a piece of stainless steel with leather to prevent your laptop from slipping. We recommend adding a separate keyboard and mouse for a more ergonomic setup. Supports up to 200 pounds, in case your PC is made of granite. Given its design and size, it’s a great option for elevating your laptop to the side when paired with an external monitor, giving you a nice dual-screen setup. Grovemade also has similar support for a monitor for $128 ($32 off) in case you need to elevate your big screen.
The vertical laptop stand takes up less space on your desk, whether you work directly on your laptop or need it angled to the side to work on a separate monitor. It’s more metal than wood, but it still looks sophisticated and has a felt pad where your laptop rests. It is 10.5 inches wide and fits my 13 inch Macbook comfortably. Comes in walnut, oak and maple. There is also blackened walnut, but that one is not discounted.
Grovemade’s desk shelf comes in four sizes, from 18.5 inches wide (small) to 58 inches wide (extra large), and there’s a small compartment for a tablet or laptop. There’s an additional desk tray to turn that compartment into an organized, merino wool-lined drawer, but it costs $144 more. The $192 price is for the walnut model, but oak and maple are cheaper, along with plywood options and colors.
A desk pad keeps your desk surface clean and scratch-free. This one has a cork bottom to prevent it from sliding. We tested the extra-large version and it covered our entire desk setup, including a second monitor, but there are four other sizes. This linoleum pad comes in 10 pretty colors and there are leather and wool pads available. To clean it, use a damp cloth.
It’s designed specifically for the iPad Pro, but is designed to hold most tablets at a 20-degree angle. You can position your tablet vertically or horizontally whether you’re working or streaming your favorite show. A hole in the back also allows you to pass a charger through it.
