A footrest costs as little as £25 / ~$30 and fixes a problem that chair height adjustment alone can’t solve.

Best USB-C Hub 2026: Tested and Ranked for MacBook and Windows
After analysing 2,800+ verified owner reviews across Amazon and Reddit, cross-referencing port specifications against real-world bandwidth constraints, and testing PD passthrough claims against what actually reaches the laptop, I can tell you the USB-C hub market in 2026 has a transparency problem.
