Convention season was very intense in 2024, with GamingTrend attending more tabletop cons than any other year prior. In fact, we went to so many conventions this year we still have content to publish on our Youtube channel from Origins and Gen Con (so keep your eyes peeled!). Needless to say, we’ve been very busy! Unfortunately, our Best of Gen Con Awards piece kept of being put on the back-burner, which is why you are reading this in late November instead of early September.

The Enzion S6 is a triple-screen laptop monitor extender that brings two additional displays to either side of your laptop’s main screen. As someone who uses a triple-monitor setup at home, I’m always looking for ways to boost productivity when I’m away from my desk, and the S6 seemed like the perfect solution. Though it’s built for portability, it’s a bit bulky; while it fits nicely in its provided case, it’s not something you’ll slip into a standard laptop bag alongside your computer.

I recently had the chance to try out the SIHOO Doro C300 Pro, an ergonomic office chair designed with comfort and customization in mind. With adjustments for height, recline, lumbar support, and armrest positioning, this chair has a lot going on. As someone who spends a fair amount of time in front of a screen, having a chair that can support all kinds of postures and prevent me from becoming a banana-shaped slouch is a big plus.

I recently got my hands on the FlexiSpot XRC5 Recliner, and let me tell you, I was excited to see if it could live up to its promises of comfort and relaxation. FlexiSpot is known for their ergonomic products, but does that reputation extend to their recliners? With features like an oversized design, massage and heat functions, and a built-in swivel and rocking mechanism, this chair has a lot going for it on paper. But how does it hold up in practice? Let’s dive in and find out.

As someone with a triple-monitor setup on my desk, it’s hard to adjust to a single screen when I use my laptop away from my desk. For the past few weeks I’ve been using the Kefeya S1 laptop screen extender to have a dual-monitor setup on the go. But does this portable monitor really bring the same productivity boost, or is it just extra weight in your bag? Let’s dive in and find out. Pulling the monitor out of the box, I was surprised by how light it felt.

FlexiSpot has a wide variety of standing desks, and they’ve recently released the FlexiSpot E7L, a pro-level L-shaped standing desk. I recently got my hands on one, and it’s designed to offer both plenty of space and top-tier functionality for those looking to upgrade their workspace. But does the E7L truly deliver on its promises, or is it just another standing desk with extra surface area? Let’s dive in and find out. But before we dive into the details, not interested in an L-shaped desk?

I was originally introduced to 3D printing with the Ender 3 V3 SE (you can see my review here). Creality recently released the Ender 3 V3 Plus, which is essentially the same as the Ender 3 V3 but with a 58% larger build volume—hence the “Plus” in the name. We also reviewed the Ender 3 V3, and you can find that review here.
