The short answer

For a coworker who lives on caffeine, start with the Keurig coffee maker; the Bose noise-canceling headphones suit a colleague who needs quiet in an open office.

Pick 1 of 19

YETI Rambler everyday drink tumbler

Home

Color: BlackNavyWhite

Home-brewed coffee is still hot at the first meeting when it travels in this insulated YETI Rambler.

Hand it to the coworker who makes their own pot every morning and would rather skip the paper cup on the way in.

Pick 4 of 19

Hydro Flask Food Jar packed lunch container

Home

Skipping the line at the office microwave is the point of this insulated food jar from Hydro Flask.

Soup or leftovers go in hot at home, then get eaten straight from it at the desk. At 8 ounces it holds a modest serving, right for a side of soup or a light lunch.

Pick 6 of 19

Americanflat poster frame for prints

Color: BlackBrownGold

This Americanflat poster frame turns a favorite print into finished wall art for a design-minded colleague.

They pick what goes inside, whether a travel poster or a gallery print they already own. It then hangs in their home office, right behind the chair on video calls.

Pick 7 of 19

Desk lamp for reading and paperwork

Color: BlackWhite

When the office empties and a coworker stays to finish a report, this lamp gives their corner its own glow.

They can set it beside the monitor and go over printed pages without squinting under the ceiling fixtures.

Pick 8 of 19

Amazon Basics countertop drip coffee maker

This Amazon Basics drip coffee maker gives a coworker who refills their mug all afternoon their own pot.

They keep it on the home office counter and start a fresh batch whenever the pot runs dry. Each refill then comes straight from the pot rather than reheated in the microwave.

Pick 9 of 19

Hamilton Beach single-serve smoothie blender

This single-serve blender turns a banana and some berries into breakfast for a coworker who skips the coffee shop line each morning.

They pack their own lunch anyway, and a homemade drink slots right into that habit. Their berry shake is gone before the first email gets answered.

Pick 10 of 19

Keurig K-Duo single-cup and carafe brewer

The Keurig K-Duo makes a lone mug or a full pot for the team's weekend brunch host.

They brew a cup just for themselves most days, then fill the carafe when guests come over. Split across the whole office, it arrives from everyone at once rather than as a token.

Games and puzzles

Top pick: Jumbo Hitster music party card game

Pick 11 of 19

Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza jumbo card party game

Everyone around the table can read these giant cards from their seat, which makes this edition a handy choice for whoever plans the offsite.

The game is easy to pick up, a plus with colleagues who have never played together, and short rounds fit neatly between sessions.

Pick 13 of 19

Pokémon TCG trading card collection

Coworkers who grew up with the Pokémon games will remember picking a first partner, and this TCG collection brings those starter Pokémon back as fresh cards to flip through.

Kept by the monitor, it is a small nod to childhood and an easy way to start a friendly argument over whose starter was the right pick.

Pick 14 of 19

Hasbro Gaming Monopoly Deal real estate card deck

Monopoly Deal brings the property game to a card deck for the colleague with a competitive lunch streak.

Their knack for bargaining goes straight into trading properties and striking deals with teammates. The deck waits in a desk drawer until someone pulls up a chair at lunch.

Pick 16 of 19

Buffalo Games Young Patriots tabletop art puzzle

The Young Patriots jigsaw puzzle from Buffalo Games gives a puzzle-loving colleague a slow weekend project.

They enjoy an unhurried hobby, sorting edges and colors across the table before the artwork appears. Between sessions, the half-finished picture waits there until they pull up a chair again.

Pick 17 of 19

Humor book of polite workplace phrasing

Blunt thoughts about the workday get polished into HR-friendly phrasing in this humor book, a natural fit for the coworker with a deadpan streak.

Muttered complaints come out as wording polite enough to send to the whole team, and the sharpest lines are worth reading aloud to whoever sits nearest.

Electronics

Top pick: Bose QuietComfort headphones with noise canceling

Pick 18 of 19

Sony WF-C510 Truly earbuds for everyday music

Color: BlackWhiteYellow

Sony WF-C510 Truly earbuds give a commuting colleague wireless music for the train ride into work.

They pop the buds in at the platform, and an audiobook fills the stretch between stops. With no cord to snag in a crowded car, a hand stays free for the rail.

Pick 19 of 19

Sony BRAVIA 2 II smart TV for streaming

This Sony BRAVIA smart TV makes a team-wide gift for a colleague settling into a new place.

Pooling with the team turns it into a present from the whole office, not just a few desks. Their weekend movie habit then gets a proper home, with films and series picked from the couch.

Questions and answers

Is there a gift here the whole office can chip in on?

Yes. The Keurig K-Duo brewer is the pick to split across the team, so it arrives from everyone at once rather than as a token. It goes to the colleague who hosts weekend brunch, brewing a lone mug on an ordinary morning and a full carafe once guests show up.

Which game should you choose for the colleague who hosts the after-work social, and which for the colleague who bargains hard at lunch?

The Hitster music game goes to the resident music fan: with the companion app open on a phone, the group guesses its way through popular hits and finds out who really knows their songs. The Monopoly Deal card deck belongs with the competitive lunch bargainer, whose haggling goes straight into trading properties and striking deals with teammates, and the deck sits in a desk drawer until someone pulls up a chair.

What can you give a coworker who stays late in an open office to finish a report?

The Bose QuietComfort headphones mute the chatter and nearby phone calls so a desk mate can keep working through a long report rather than the next desk's conversation. The desk lamp suits the colleague left behind as the office empties, set beside the monitor to go over printed pages without squinting under the ceiling fixtures.
