This is great if you have a 3 prong outlet that’s grounded but it cannot be used with a three prong adapter. So just keep that in mind when ordering. If you’re looking for a two prong, I have another similar one that is 2 prong and under 1k watts.
Audecook 2L Electric Hot Pot with Rack
This is a two prong electric pot, great for small living or dorms. It’s under 1k watts and heats up quickly. Wash like a regular pot once it’s cooled and unplugged. Comes with a steamer basket for veggies, cooks pasta and soups well. I’ve made beans ...
KEINVE 1.5L 5-in-1 Electric Hot Pot w/ Steamer
I use this for hot Sammy’s, grilled cheese, toast. You can also make eggs, French toast, quesadillas. Etc. it’s 2 prong and small, great for tiny places. It’s pretty easy to clean, I like to take a wet paper towel and wipe it down real well in betwee...
Nostalgia MyMini Sandwich Maker Mint Green
Did you know coffee makers can be used for more than just making coffee? I’ve used mine to make ramen, heat water for oatmeal, tea, etc. you can also use it to clean water. Just a good thing to have on hand.
Mainstays 12-Cup Black Programmable Drip Coffee Maker, CM1449-UL
In need of a mini fridge? Have no fear! This one is just under $150 dollars in store at Walmart. I’m sure you could order for delivery or pickup as well. Keeps drinks and sandwich meat cold. To keep dairy cold make sure it’s on a good setting.
Mainstays 3.2 cu ft 2-Door Compact Refrigerator with Freezer, Stainless-Steel Look, Mini Fridge for Dorm, Apartment & Office
This filters water so well and saves you money on water bottles, the filter lasts two months. Walmart also sells great value brand filters, not sure how well those work, but they are like a fraction of the price the Brita brand filters are.
Brita Standard 6-Cup, White Plastic Water Filtration Pitcher
These are the regular 2 month filters, about $8 dollars. They works great and I love the taste of our water.
Brita Standard Replacement Water Filter, Compatible with All Brita Pitchers & Dispensers (1 Pack)
These are great value brand water filters, I haven’t personally tried them but If your trying to save on money these might work for you. They’re about $5 dollars and they are compatible with Brita pitchers.
Great Value Water Filter, Fits Great Value & Brita Pitchers, Replacement Filter 1 Count
These are a bit pricey but they each last about 6 months, so if you buy one pack for $30 your set for a year. I recommend these if you don’t wanna be replacing the filter every 2 months.
Brita Elite Replacement Water Filter, Compatible with All Brita Pitchers & Dispensers (2 Pack), Reduces Lead
This is where I store all of my food items in my room, any pantry food goes here. It holds quite a bit and doesn’t take up too much space. It’s just under $45 dollars and can be purchased for pickup.

OLIXIS 14In Metal Queen Bed Frame w/ Storage
It’s quite small, but it works in little spaces. It’s cute, a little on the pricey side for the size but I love the look of it and I can fit it pretty much anywhere in my room. I would also love to use it as a side table in my living room in my futur...

I use this fan literally everyday! When I sleep at night, when I smoke(for the smell, smokers know), if it’s feeling warm in my room, to circulate fresh air. I would die without this fan.

This is my current comforter set! It’s so comfy and cozy. It’s adds just the right amount of pink and fluff to my room! I would definitely say it keeps me warm and I love the feel of it. The squares aren’t flat, and they fluff up in the washer! Comes...

This is the chair I use, not super big but it works for the price. It gets the job done and it doesn’t take up a ton of space, which I like.
Mainstays Mesh Task Chair with Plush Padded Seat, Teen/Adult, Black
I really recommend getting this for hanging stuff up if you don’t want to put holes in the wall. It sticks really well but you have to be careful taking it off, it can rip the pain. I recommend using a blow dryer to loosen the adhesive when removing ...
