Reasoning for this parts list:

The i5 7500 is a great chip for both gaming and content creation, as it packs plenty of power under the hood without being extremely expensive like an i7. If you can fit an i7 into the budget after all your peripherals are decided on, however, go for it.

In this case, a CPU cooler is really unnecessary because that particular CPU is locked. I've added in the Hypoer T2 because it'll be quieter than the stock cooler, but if you're okay with the extra noise, you can drop it and save another $20 for your peripherals.

Motherboard chipsets don't really affect performance unless you're an overclocker. It doesn't seem like you'll need more than just peripheral attachments and the usual ethernet compatibility, so this B250 board will do the job without breaking the bank.

16gb DDR4-3000 memory- This is probably the best value option I could find on PCP. 16gb is plenty of capacity for doing video editing, and definitely will be fast enough at 3000mhz.

Grabbed a 240gb SSD for use as a boot drive and for program access (games and editing software, in your case). This will chop your load times significantly and make your computer feel much more responsive than loading off a hard drive. Also noteworthy: If you have a preference towards a specific brand, most 240gb SSD's are around this price mark, so this one is more or less a placeholder.

Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm drive- 2TB, as requested, with a 64mb cache for slightly faster retrieval of commonly used files. Also, this one is made by one of the two hard drive giants in the industry and has a very good reputation as a reliable drive.

Gigabyte GTX 1080 Windforce- This GPU will obliterate games, and provide ample power for rendering and for pushing the listed 1440p monitor.

SeaSonic G-750 PSU- SeaSonic's brand name is all about high quality and reliability. This PSU will last you years to come while having very good energy efficiency (this will reduce heat output and electricity costs significantly). This particular model is semi-modular, meaning that peripheral power cords like SATA and PCI-E 6/8 pin connectors aren't hard wired into the unit- you can remove them if you're not using them. This makes for an easier build and a cleaner looking case if you opt for a side window panel.

~~LG 34UC79G- This one was a bit harder to find something I'd approve of. Of course, at 1080p, it's not the highest resolution, but it is capable of displaying up to 144fps. If framerate is less important than resolution, there are other 1440p monitors available closer to 75hz that will do just as nicely, for about the same price.~~

I didn't budget in a copy of Windows 10 because it can be downloaded for free and run unlicensed without holding your computer hostage (you just lose some customization features like wallpapers and stuff). If you want a legit copy, you can purchase a key for about $110 retail or $90 for an OEM key.

EDIT: Ended up cherry-picking the ASUS PB227Q 27" monitor from Ye_untaken_username's build, because higher resolution and lower price. The monitor I'd previously specced is nice but overkill for someone who's not a hardcore gamer.

Also added in a Fractal Define Mini C because they're nice, and small, without requiring an ITX board that will have you spend 2x more on the motherboard. If you want a bigger case, you can get a Core 2300 for even less than this case, just without some of the nicer features of this one.

I didn't add in a case and peripherals because those are highly subjective- at the end of the day, what works for my hands might not for yours. This build leaves about $550 CAD in the budget for a keyboard, mouse, headset, desk and chair- it's not enough for the very best of all of those, but it should make your goal attainable.

If you need more budget for the last few periphery items, you can drop down to this 1070 and open up another $250.

If your budget for the desk/chair/keyboard/mouse/headset is significantly less than $550, I would get this Core i7 7700 CPU for $400, over the i5 7500 for $260. You'll dip into your peripheral budget by about $140 but notice better editing power over the i5.

EDIT 2:

I found these for about another $600 more. It'll be tight, but I think this pretty accurately represents what one might spend on these parts.

The desk and chair, I'm not sure about, because I don't know what kind of department stores you have in your area, but I'd be surprised if you couldn't get a desk and chair for less than $280 to bring the total build into your $2700 budget.

1,000 sq feet is a lot! Could you use the kitchen sink for baby baths? Or get a little infant tub, or even an oversized tupperware (or something from the container store). But really, you could use an infant tub and just fill it with water from the sink.

We had a 925 sq foot one-bedroom apartment when our son was born. When he was first born we just had a boppy lounger that he slept in on the floor next to our bed. We started with the Halo bassinet but he HATED it and would only sleep in the lounger. Literally. We tried everything. Only the f*cking boppy lounger. It made me so paranoid bc it said it wasn't safe for infant sleep but he loved it and did fine in it.

Anyways, when he got older (maybe at around 6 weeks) we moved him to a pack n play that had a raised mattress thing (not a bassinet, it's just a thing that clips on that lifts the mattress piece up). And then, we basically moved the pack n play depending on where we wanted to be in the moment. So, when we put him down to sleep, if we wanted to stay up in our bedroom and watch a movie, we'd set him up in the living room/main room. But if we wanted to be in the living room and cook a late dinner or something, we put him in our bedroom. That way, we weren't disturbing his sleep or naps.

We got this when he got a bit older and started collecting more toys https://www.amazon.com/Sauder-Bookcase-Footboard-White-Finish/dp/B00B2QU5YW/ref=sr_1_3 We still have it now (2.5 years later) and it's great. Holds a ton of books and toys, and is easy for him to access.

We had a little play gym thing that was cute and collapsable, though it stayed out for the most part because it was the best place to put him down for entertainment for a while.

We got this as a gift (expensive AF) but I LOVE it because the drawers are super deep, and now that he's too big to be changed on top of it, we're just using it as a dresser and it fits a ton of clothes, diapers, wipes, blankets, etc. https://www.amazon.com/Babyletto-3-Drawer-Changer-Removable-Changing/dp/B007CRJHW6/ref=sr_1_1_a_it

Once he started moving around, our whole apartment became his room. We basically permanently shut the door to our bedroom and baby proofed the entire rest of the apartment so he could crawl around. At that point there really wasn't any point in trying to save space lol.

Honestly, it's going to be fine :) when they're first born you end up wanting them so close all of the time anyways. And, for the first 9+ months they don't really move a lot or take up a ton of space. It's just once they start moving around that it becomes slightly more challenging.

Sounds like fun! I'll have to do this later

1.) Something that is grey: Pelican Gray Nail Polish. (on private WL)

2.) Something reminiscent of rain: Shower Curtain is a barrier between the bathroom tiles and cascading, rain-like, waterfall that flows from the showerhead. (on dream WL)

3.) Something food related that is unusual: Candy Mold. Chocolate frogs, anyone? (on under $5 WL)

4.) Something on your list that is for someone other than yourself. Tell me who it's for and why. (Yes, pets count!): Ice Cream Maker. No ice cream for me because I started keto last week. My friends and family would benefit from this when I make them some delicious ice cream. (on dream WL)

5.) A book I should read! I am an avid reader, so take your best shot and tell me why I need to read it!: The Knife of Never Letting Go. It's book one of the Chaos Walking trilogy, which has rave reviews. Apparently it's a dark, dystopian book full of suspense. (on high priority WL)

6.) An item that is less than a dollar, including shipping... that is not jewelry, nail polish, and or hair related!: Laser Finger Beams (not on WL)

7.) Something related to cats. I love cats! (keep this SFW, you know who you are...): Westside Warrior Nail Polish. Lions, which are really big cats, are warriors of the jungle. (on under $5 WL)

8.) Something that is not useful, but so beautiful you must have it: Origami Star Paper. I like folding these, but once I make them into stars, I literally have nothing to do with them. There's jars of them all across my house and all I can do is look at them (on under $5 WL)

9.) A movie everyone should watch at least once in their life. Why?: Song from Iron Man 3 Soundtrack. Everyone should see it because Iron Man + Tony Stark + RDJ = <3 (on digital WL)

10.) Something that would be useful when the zombies attack. Explain.: Spin-the-shot. If zombies attack, I would need to be drunk, so this would come in handy for some last minute fun before I turn into a brain eating zombie. Let's face it, I'm not surviving a zombie attack... (on $5-$10 WL)

11.) Something that would have a profound impact on your life and help you to achieve your current goals: Coconut Oil. Everyone on the keto subreddit raves about this stuff. Being a newbie to this lifestyle, I feel that if so many people had great results using this oil, that it would help with my goals. (on $11-$25 WL)

12.) One of those pesky Add-On items: Anti-stress face mask (not surprisingly, found on my add-on WL)

13.) The most expensive thing on your list. Your dream item. Why?: Globe Bar. I would feel like a super cool James Bond-esque spy who would have a secret room hidden behind a bookshelf. Plus I love alcohol and globes. (on dream WL)

14.) Something bigger than a bread box: Desk Easel. (on $11-25 WL)

15.) Something smaller than a golf ball: Earrings. (on private WL)

16.) Something that smells wonderful: Pink Punch Baby Lips (on add-ons WL)

19.) Something related to your current obsession, whatever that may be: Paints. My current obsession is painting! (on $11-25 WL)

20.) Something that is just so amazing and awe-inspiring that I simply must see it. Explain why it is so grand: Mug. I love love love this literature mug. I not only love the varying typography all over it, but I think that there are some really striking first lines of literature. (on $11-25 WL)

BONUS

1.) Real name: PM sent

2.) Made in Oregon: Handwarmer Mug

Edit: raffle phrase - fear cuts deeper than swords

I bought an XT8 last fall as a first scope and have really enjoyed it. I live in an outer suburb of Cincinnati. I have a never ending skyglow to my west, but reasonably dark skies overhead and to the east. I've had excellent views of M31, M32, M110, M42, M27, Jupiter, Mars, the Moon, owl cluster/asterism, Pleiades and other sights that I'm forgetting to mention here. Just last weekend I got my best view of Jupiter so far. I was able to see the color bands more clearly than ever before, the shadow of a moon on it's surface, two other moons in line with the planet, and could just make out the red spot (I think). The telescope is easy to setup, stays pretty well collimated even after gentle transport, and isn't too much of a beast to move around.

I'd recommend as your first accessory a viewing chair like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Vestil-CPRO-800LP-Ergonomic-Worker-Capacity/dp/B0052PJFCW.

You'll be tempted to get eyepieces, filters, and laser collimators, but that chair is the single item that has enhanced my viewing most. It's adjustable height lets you sit comfortably with the eyepiece at eye level for extended viewing sessions.

Best of luck!

EDIT : Spelling

Okay so this probably sounds too good to be true but I decided to try a "mattress-in-a-box" thing too and my budget was a tad lower (by like 600 haha I'm a student) BUT I Think I've found the hidden-gem of mattress brands: Zinus. I got mine from amazon, and if you have prime shipping is free.

This is the one I have:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012H0JTMA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&th=1

Would give it 7/10 on the 0-10 Firmness scale (which is my personal preference), maybe 5/10 on that memory-foam sinking in feeling, and its held up super well, and only ~$250.

Total satisfaction out of 10 - I'd give it 9/10

Here are some nicer ones:

​

Also - if you don't already have Honey - it is the best app/add-on for coupon codes.. like for real I'm not a rep for them haha, just crazy good deals. It automatically tries a bunch overtime you're checking-out online. Link to that is: joinhoney.com/ref/bk7a4o if you wanna check it out!

I read you already bought yours, but I want to put in my thoughts anyways in case anybody else is looking at these or you change your mind. I live with a buddy of mine for the time being and he bought one of those memory foam beds for his daughter (4). The bed is ok, obviously you can't expect the world from a <500 bed but its a good bed for what it is. I slept on it for about 3-5 months can't remember and I don't remember having any issues.

I decided I wanted my own bed, and so I went to Costco and looked around at their selection they had in the back aisles on the wall. There were about 15 beds they had in bags lying longways like you'd see clothes in a closet. Well, I found a gel top foam mattress for about $500 I think it was. It is by far the best bed I've ever slept on, and my friend has some kind of expensive foam mattress over $1000 and I like it better than his. The brand is Sleep Innovations, which I think is the same type of one as those beds.

Here is a link Gel Mattress

It's got the gel on top then the egg crate looking thing and THEN the regular bed. OMG, when I brought it home after buying some of those $80 Jennifer Adams sheet sets in queen size, and the AMAZING BLANKETS for $15 ( I bought) I was so giddy and squirreling around in my bed my friend thought there was something wrong with me. It was literally comfort overload.

The bed came in a box, all rolled up and you just flop it out of the box onto the ground and it sucks up air until it "inflates" I guess. It smells for a day or so then it's great. I love my bed. I bought a frame to go under it so I have extra storage and foam mattresses like to sweat which causes mildew under the bed (found that out the hard way with another foam mattress).

I also bought the foam pillows from costco as well, I think it was 2 pillows for $20 or $10 or something I can't remember. I LOVE COSTCO!!!!!!!!

My first recommendation would be to search Craigslist. I purchased awesome, super expensive chairs on the cheap...Humanscale Freedom and Steelcase Leap for $100 or less each! The big brands you should look for are Herman Miller, Steelcase, Humanscale, and Knoll. There are probably other great brands and chairs, but that should be a good starting point.

If you don't find anything, Amazon actually has a few chairs that are in your price range and are pretty good. The AmazonBasics chair (https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=chair) has good reviews. I personally have the Alera Elusion (http://www.amazon.com/Alera-Elusion-Series-Mid-Back-Multifunction/dp/B003G4OJK4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage), but it's a little more expensive. These aren't as ergonomic and comfortable as chairs from Humanscale or Steelcase, but they're definitely comfortable and get the job done.

This mattress that I got for it's portability. It folds into thirds which makes it easy to transport in my CR-V with all my other stuff.

Since you mentioned folding a section of the bed, this could potentially be a good option as it's designed to fold itself. Although I'm not sure if they make a bigger version that a twin or not.

This mattress seems similar in concept though, and comes in full size. And the fold pattern actually looks like it might be better too for your needs. But of course measure first.

I can't speak for the second mattress I linked, but the first one is very comfortable despite only being 3" thick. I'd guess the second one is good too.

Best of luck, and I'd definitely love to see what you come up with!

I will not claim it is the best, but I bought this PlaySeat and have been very happy with it.

In my case, I'm using it for VR sim racing with the Vive (and sometimes Oculus Rift).

For me, it is very important that my seating position in the seat closely matches the avatars seating position in the game, in order to really feel "in" the experience, and the Playseat delivers in that regard.

I like the playseat in that it was pretty good quality for the price, holds my wheel and petals and shifters nicely, and is nicely adjustable.

It is a tad bit flimsy in the post that holds up the wheel, but I found I actually like that because it transfers some of the wheel vibrations into the chassis, which while not perfect does add some realism. I added a pair of "butt kickers" to amplify the road and engine feel, and then a giant industrial fan to blow in my face to simulate open cockpit. Picture here

Yeah, got two of those under my chair. They are a bit overkill, one should have done. They are not actually that small, they are obviously smaller than a sub woofer base bin, but they are like 3 inches wide including the fixtures and they can make a sofa bounce (read reviews, one odd one about it melting, but dont understand that at all lol).

Post got huge so TL;DR: A Basic purchase list of bits and rudimentary instructions.

Heres my setup with UK Amazon links (sorry not sure where you are in the verse Cmdr):

1. Amp: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00SATAEEA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
   
   
2. Body Shakers (two of them), they look small on the screen, but they are 3 inches is diameter. NOTE: if anyone reading this decides to go for it (highly recommend) make sure you put some washers between the body shaker and chair. I didnt do that at first and it actually stops the device from rumbling, I put about 5mm clearance and BOOM your butts being kicked :) Two of them on a standard office chair is overkill but I always want MORE POWER hehe :) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B002LQAHPE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
   
   
3. Subwoofer filter (crossover), removes the high's and mids from the sound. Got this about 2 weeks after as I could hear alarms starport announcements which were on the higher audio frequencies: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000L9D0ZW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
   
   Wire them in parallel, (wiring aint my strong suit but took 2 mins of watching a youtube vid to understand). The last thing to mention is getting sound to be outputted from two sources. You could go for 2 soundcards, but luckly I have the realtek soundcard which can have a "virtual" card using one of the MANY sound outputs on it. This then allows you to feed a different sound feed to a different audio jack. I then used a free program called voicemeeter (has two e's) and this allows you to feed the same signal to two different outputs. Which is handy, alternatively you could splice the standard audio jack cable to support 2 feeds. Problem with that for me is I use USB audio, so voicemeeter solved that problem, have USB headphones with baseshakers which is standard phono.
   
   Hope the above helps, give me a shout if you want pictures or anything else. Good luck with your build Cmdr.
   

Have a solid 100% latex mattress and I swear the guest bedroom twin is more comfortable. I like more firm though. You can get more firm latex but price goes up.

Here's the discounted latex info:

https://www.sleepez.com/

This is for the twin on amazon, they have different sizes. Look for certipure if you do go memory foam. (Its way different than the old tempurpedic days.)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005G02ESA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

We used this bed FJELLSE from from Ikea:

http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S59009824/

and these slats:

http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00160215/

Honestly if I had to do it over I'd buy a larger mattress on Amazon and the Ikea frame and slats. Just too comfy. The latex is dreamy but you have to trust you get the right firmness or you are stuck sleeping in a hammock like experience. That and the fact it weighs a ton. Good luck mattress shopping is fun!

This chair is anything but ... it's the best damn chair ever. the arm pads are leather + memory foam and are up & down + 3 position left/right adjustable and are actually comfortable to place your hands on. the back & bottom mesh are awesome you can sit on it for 10 hours (like me) and you don't get swamp but from it. The build quality is simply amazing and it has the option for back support (which i have since my back hurts) it's the best damn investment i've made so far.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003M1C7XW/ref=twister_B00024D5UG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

For my makeup table I have a 3 way mirror that both sides move, that way i can see all sides (behind when I do my hair). This is mine- http://www.amazon.com/Bobkona-Croix-Collection-Vanity-Stool/dp/B005CWHY7I/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1421524863&sr=8-3&keywords=vanity Mine dosent have lighting, but if it did I would want normal light bulbs and not the yellow off color that the lights that save on electricity use. That way your lighting is true to the outside lights.
I wish mine had more storage. Id suggest maybe doing like the picture and having some on top that hold the stuff you use all the time. Mine has drawers that I keep everything else in. To clean it, because mine gets dusty and left over makeup (powder), I use cleaning wipes. Hope this helps!

I searched on Amazon for L Shaped Desk and found a whole bunch of options. Many under $100. I linked to one I thought was a great price.
How it works is you order the item you like and they will ship it to you and then you put it together yourself using very basic tools. Like a Phillips screw driver and sometimes a hammer.

I also went to Walmart.com and searched L shaped desk and found this one below. Walmart offers free shipping when the item is over $25 so getting from Walmart (or even target.com) will be the best option. Shipping is pretty quick in my experience. The desks I've found so far all look like they will be easy to assemble. Also, most of the results are available in multiple finishes (wood/black etc) so make sure you select the option you want.

Sorry if my links are wacky, I'm on mobile.

Ameriwood Home Dakota L-Shaped Desk with Bookshelves, Black Ebony Ash https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HRYBYRU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_FsMEzbNBSF0A2

https://www.walmart.com/ip/L-Shaped-Desk-with-Side-Storage-Multiple-Finishes/20552761?variantFieldId=actual_color

Not an Aeron, but I highly recommend this one below. It's really well built, and has more levers than a jet cockpit. I've purchased 6 of them for different people / different offices and they all love them. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003G4OJK4

And yeah South Coast Auction is great too. Sometime hit or miss though. Check back

So I bought this one: Rolling Bed JFM-36080 Black-60inch Queen Size Japanese Mattresses https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009EEMH3Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_O7fxCbK30QNAT

All the way back in 2014. I proceeded to use it daily for at least 2-3 years. First directly on a tile floor then on a frame. Then it was used for an actual futon frame for a little while. Then I lent it to a friend to use as a primary mattress. And now it is sitting back on a carpeted floor as a guest bed situation.

I will say first off that it has paid its dues and really needs to be retired now. The padding is going to get compressed over time. Served me very well for a long time. When I was moving I just rolled it up and tied it off with the connected tied and threw it in my vehicle and I was good to go. That being said there were definitely some issues.

Take this as you will, but as a single guy, bringing ladies back to your thin mattress on the floor does not impress anyone. You can and probably will get some criticisms thrown your way. Although actually worked better than heavy foam mattresses.

If you purchase a frame and put it on there, it very much upgrades the whole look and depending on what you use may be indistinguishable from a regular mattress. Just be careful to avoid frames with thin wooden slats, get a totally flat board underneath. If you put your weight down on a specific part of your futon you can snap those slats (ask me how I know). I’m not sure if the built in cover was removable or washable, but I always used a fitted sheet and washed that and it worked just fine.

If I had to rock it as my primary again, I would probably build a simple wooden platform to lift it. Something like this: http://www.lifestylesfurniture.com/assets/images/2012_astrid_nohd_lg.jpg

All in all I was happy with it and if life brought me back to using it, I wouldn’t have much to complain about. Hope that helped. Feel free to ask any questions.

Further details:

• Budget: Ideally, $400 or less, excluding the mattress, but I can stretch up to $500 or less
  
• I need a desk. I was thinking this one, but I'm open to any larger desk that fits with the theme
  
• I like a sense of minimalism, but I'm open to some visually interesting components. I'm somewhat distracted, so I hope to design a room that doesn't aggravate that.
  
• I currently trying to decide between a queen bed and a full bed. I'd prefer the queen, but I'm open to the full, if the queen would tamper significantly with the space. I was considering this bed, but I'm looking
  
• There's a window on the left side of the main room, and it has a pretty view. It's the only window.
  
• There's a large closet on the left side of the entry-way. That should be sufficient for the majority of my storage.
  
• I don't need the most super ergonomic chair. Something to sit on for an hour at a time would suffice, but I'm not a gamer

We have a bookshelf that has a shelf on top and storage bins on the bottom. I really like it! It's great for storing books on the shelf and dress up clothes in the bin. My only complaint is that our tallest picture books don't quite fit and we have to put them on their sides.

Even though it's pretty inexpensive, I feel like it's a pretty sturdy shelf and it was easy to put together.

You get what you pay for, and you spend a third of your life sleeping, so a bed is worth investing in.

That said, would you be willing to consider alternative styles of beds that can be put away during the day, like a rolling futon mattress or a foam pad similar to the one that the sofabed you linked uses? If you prefer a firmer bed, a futon like the one in the first link will serve you well. My SO and I sleep on the queen-size one and it works very well for us, although we both like very firm beds. It's pretty easy to roll up and move when needed.

As someone who's tuned into deal sites: Yes, to some degree. But there's still plenty of good deals to be had. Especially when things don't go as planned. Don't you remember last year's Xbox One debacle? We're talking a free xbox one, and possibly additional credit, on top of extra controllers and games.

I also apparently got 24 bottles of VOSS Norwegian water this year for $3, and that stuff is supposed fancy or something. Ordered that for giggles.

Someone else got a Mini Segway for $160 iirc.

I nabbed one of their Big & Tall (up to 350lb) Office Chairs for $100, which isn't bad.

As for Prime Pantry? For some reason I keep getting a Fresh Credit of $6, no idea why, and that stacks with the $10 off $60 credit, so I can find some choice pantry items that are decently priced and get $16 off, and stack it with free shipping. And that's on top of the 5% off with my Amazon Store Card. I did four full orders, and my mail person hates me now.

Prime Day is not Black Friday. Black Friday is a day of both Purchases of Opportunity and Planned Purchases, due to general price cuts on everything (To some degree... Cyber Monday and beyond is where it's at currently at based off last year). Prime Day is only Purchases of Opportunity, as the thing you've wanted probably won't go on sale, but chances are if you check the deal sites enough you'll find things that you'll buy anyway because they're cheap enough.

Sidenote: This is what you guys should being paying attention to: Lowe's 10% off, which stacks with 10% Self-generated coupon codes (see top comment), which stacks with 7.5% cashback through ebates.

Edit- more info

I splurged and got myself one of those stupid expensive Herman Miller Aeron chairs.

I do not regret it a bit. The mesh is wonderful in this warm environment I live in, it helps me keep extremely good posture (much better than my slinking I'd do before), is super adjustable for your needs, and still feels like new despite putting in hundreds of sitting hours.

I have this particular trifold, I use it as extra padding for my shikibuton and they're both great. I'm a side sleeper, my husband a back sleeper. It's a great combo, very portable, and I even slept on this combo while pregnant. Very comfortable, highly recommend.

Anyone have any recommendations for a good office chair? Need to pick one up for when I start working from home
This is what I've picked out at the moment
I love the high back - I'm 6'5" so that would be great for me. But I'm all ears if anyone has a better suggestion!

I bought 2 of these for £23 each at the time (on offer) :

As an alternative, these seem to get good reviews on Amazon for much less £££'s :

​

I have the 2 shakers mounted underneath my Ikea chair on the left & right sides.

They are just screwed into the wood base with some rubber washers on there too for dampening.

I've read that it's better with the shakers mounted on some metal brackets / bars to allow them to vibrate more, but I haven't tried this yet.

​

Currently use a SoundBlaster Z for the main pc sound, and my motherboards' onboard audio to drive the amp/shakers.

​

Works well as far as I can tell - don't have anything to compare it against - and I never need to have the amp above 50% volume, with the onboard audio at 90% volume in windows.

​

For software I use SimVibe, but both Simhub & SimShaker Wheels also work well too. I'd say SimhHub is easier to tweak to taste due to not needing to mess around with .wav files in Audacity.

​

Plus if you want rumble from other games / movies output through the shakers for some added immersion, then use Voicemeter Banana and enable the eq on the secondary output channel assigned to the onboard audio.

Then set the low pass filter @75-90Hz.

OpenWheeler cockpit

3 Samsung 32inch 1080p TVs. I got a lot of hate on this setup because they're not legit monitors. But I put my buddies monitor next to one of these to try them both and didn't see a difference. (They have game mode) I do play FPS's on them and see no input lag.

Anyway, I love this setup. Originally, I had the wheel on the desk but there was some movement on the entire thing. Once I got the cockpit everything felt 100 times better since the wheel was more secure. I highly recommend getting a stand for the wheel. There are a bunch of cockpits like this, more expensive or cheaper.

6' 5" here as well, I work in a used office furniture store. Herman Miller Aeron is one of the best chairs out there, they range around 400$ used. Personally I found this Boss chair to extremely comfortable, the headrest and added lumbar support are amazing. It's nowhere near the quality of Herman Miller though sadly.

Depending on your size, the Aeron chair comes in size B or C. I'm 300 Lbs so the size C suits me.

I'm in small room myself, trying to make the best use of space.

Consider a Japanese futon. I've been using one for the last five months and I love it. It is...maximally firm. Personally I like the "primal sleeping" aspect, and it helps a bit with my sciatica.

I'm using: https://www.amazon.com/Rolling-Bed-JFM-36080-Black-60inch-Mattresses/dp/B009EEMH3Q

Lately I've been considering a bit more padding.. possibly going with a legit tatami mat, otherwise a firm 1" foam pad.

The futon folds up quickly and fits in the closet. Plenty of room for a narrow bench sofa to use during the day.

If you have the space to transport get a folding foam mattress like this one.

Almost as good as sleeping on a real mattress.
Then the pro move is to get a folding bed frame with tall legs. This frame will fit above most storage bins, definitely the blacks ones with yellow lids! Now you don’t have to sleep on the floor AND you have storage for your bins!

I got the full size mattress and frame and it’s turned our 10x14 Kodiak into an actual bedroom.

When I was looking for a good chair I thought about the DX Racer. I really wanted one but looking back I'm kind of glad I didn't get one they seemed a bit to exaggerated. I ended up getting one from amazon, that to this day I really like. it's kind of big and "bulky" but pretty damn comfortable where I can easily sit in every night for 5+ hours.

A big problem I think is that DX Racers are mostly given to streamers/youtubers for free or at a very discounted price and one can't complain about something free.

This is the chair I got.

Sleepy's is pretty expensive. I recommend a cheap memory foam mattress. I got this mattress for my little girl and it's really comfortable.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005G02ESA/

IKEA is a great place to get the actual bed.

You might want to consider a Japanese futon, which you can easily transport and even fold/roll up and put away during the day. J-Life seems to be a popular brand and they have a good variety of products so you can get a feel for what's available, but they sell far cheaper on Amazon and the quality difference is supposedly minimal. Here is one on Amazon for about $150 after shipping that is the size you want: Queen Size Traditional Japanese Floor Mattress. I just got the smaller size of that one and find it firm but very comfortable.

Yes, it takes a little while but it gets there. There was no smell to mine, though some people claim there was with theirs. Ive been pretty happy with it, for 150 bucks i don't think it can be beat. I ordered the 6 inch sleep master for my sisters kids, and while they aren't bad, they are definitely not as comfortable.

Holy, no way, chairs are super important, especially if you are going to sit for multiple hours. In the long run, having a good chair will improve you long term health and should stop back pain. And with him bring 12, it's better to have a good foundation earlier so he doesn't much up his life.

Anyways, I am also looking for another chair and I've narrowed it down to two for 100-150 (96-143 Euro i believe).
here's one

and the other

If not, an AkRacing sounds good

Traditional beds have a mattress sitting on top of a box spring (a mattress sized wooden frame with springs in it) which in turn sits on top of a bedframe (typically made of wood or metal).

An alternative to this, is to get a bedframe that has wood or metal planks ("slats") going across the frame. They perform the role of the box-spring while contributing significantly less bulk. In North America, these are most popular at Ikea--it's a sort of European approach. Here's a low slatted frame on Amazon. Here's IKEA's slatted bed base category--in IKEA most of their frames can use a slatted base.

If you search the /r/minimalism for sleeping stuff you'll see that a lot of the more dedicated minimal people here use Japanese-style sleeping futons, relatively thin memory foam mattresses, and people here with actual bed-frames often forego a box spring or use a slatted base.

Good luck.

I bought this off amazon. And love it. I was in exact same situation as you. I bought one of the frames they recommend on amazon as well. Total $500

Can't beat that for a hand made mattress that was made in the USA.

I'm moving and I'll need to get myself an office chair, too. I've made some research on this, and apparently good chairs cost closer to $1000 when new, but can frequently be purchased for $400 or less used. One specific model that's apparently among the best there is in that price range is Herman Miller's Aeron. Miller's Mirra would be a little less fancy, while still great for someone who's only used cheap chairs before, and with a less shocking price tag.

For people who can't afford that kind of monies, there is the already mentioned IKEA Markus. The cheaper price comes with drawbacks such as non-adjustable and shorter lasting arm rests. The expensive chairs have pretty much adjustable everything. I would be wary getting an used MARKUS, since I've heard of so many with worn out coating. Apparently it doesn't take many years until it starts to show visible wear and tear.

Around $200 seems to be the price point under which I won't be able to find the kind of chair I want new. Apparently that's the point under which the quality and life span of the product starts to go so low it won't be worth it. I'll be sitting on that chair for a large portions of my time, it's not worth a couple hundreds to spend so much of my life uncomfortably and possibly in an unhealthy position.

When looking at the prices, it's good to keep in mind that especially the more expensive chairs are often perfectly good when bought used, but come usually considerably cheaper. The lower quality cheap chairs usually have a shorter life span, so getting them used might just mean you'll need to get another soon when it breaks down.

Also, as a random thing my research has unveiled so far, a head rest might not be a desirable thing to have in a chair, as apparently it's healthier to sit without one.

That looks like what I have. It's good quality for the cost, standing up to a toddler pretty well and was easy to assemble.

I bought this a couple years ago. It isn't the cheapest thing ever, but it is awesome. Light weight, stable on paved surfaces, and easily adjustable. It is absolutely essential to my sessions.

Get them shipped from Amazon. I got this one for some family who had fallen on hard times: http://www.amazon.com/Sleep-Master-6-Inch-Therapeutic-Mattress/dp/B005G02ESA/

Pretty much all of the foam mattresses on Amazon are highly rated and come shipped with all the air removed. You need to open them, let them grow back to full size and air out a little and they last forever with no issues with the sides losing structural integrity like a regular mattress if you like sitting on the edge. They also require no box spring. You can get a cheap bed frame from Amazon too for the same price as the mattress. all told you can spend $200 bucks for a full bed with frame and mattress.

They are very firm, however. Which I love and they don't wear out in the middle and form that body crater that a lot of normal mattresses do. There are options for different top materials like gel and memory foam and a few with little raised cooling towers that let air circulate under.

I honestly enjoyed the mattress as much as my bed at home. It's this one off Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01INZBCJG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_JSGUzb0GYEEBC

Just had to open it up and let it air out a day or two to fully expand and you're good to go.

Thank you. I've attempted to get a refund and just bought something else. If that fails I will attempt a repair.

Those amp boards could come in very useful though! They're insanely cheap. I have a side project building a racing simulator. I need a few amps to send power to some body shakers mounted under the chair. Do you happen to know if one of these would provide enough power one of these:

Thanks. I appreciate I've drifted off topic slightly now, so obviously don't feel obliged to answer. :)

This chair is probably unbeatable for the price.

The Alera Elusion Series Mesh Mid-Back Multifunction Chair.

It's breathable, super comfortable, very adjustable and very well-built.

Idk how to break this to you, but you could have gotten a really great one on Amazon for like $400.

1. This vanity is the most expensive item on my list.
   
   
2. I've always wanted a vanity. I've never had a nice piece of furniture for myself and this would be just for me. I'd love to have somewhere to sit and relax while I do my makeup or paint my nails. Every girl needs a battlestation!
   
   
3. No, I would not. I'll get it eventually, it's just a matter of time. :) I've actually told DJ that I'd accept a vanity as a form of proposal. hahah.
   
   Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds! Great song. <3

I was going to buy one of the more expensive branded foam mattresses, but my back went out and we needed a new bed now. We bought a cheap queen size this one on Amazon for less than $300. It's been almost 5 years and the bed is still wonderful.

My back just started acting up again, but it appears to be a pinched nerve this time. Pretty sure the bed isn't at fault.

I try to do local whenever possible, been happy with Wood You and the The Futon store on N 16th and Main St.

That being said... recently got this for a guest with an "extended stay." We ordered this mattress and this bed frame. Total cost for a queen size bed/mattress: $381.00 (including shipping).

Quality was awesome and it's better than the bed we're using ourselves at more than 3x the price.

I love my AD8.

I've bought tons of eyepieces and accessories. Without a doubt the best accessory I've bought is this adjustable height chair. Having this chair is the difference between seeing something in space, and observing something in space. The best eyepiece in the world is worthless if you're too uncomfortable to spend much time looking through it.

My next favorite accessory is the Telrad view finder. It's a game changer. After getting it, I just took off the viewfinder that came with the scope and I don't miss it at all.

For eyepieces, I love the big 2" that comes with the scope. It's my favorite. Otherwise I use this 8-24mm zoom eyepiece.

I've bought tons of other stuff but most of it doesn't get used much. This three things I use all the time.

Clear skies!

Although I am not super expert in this field but, I have two recommendation for you, its under your budget hopefully it would be comfortable too (based on customer review). first one is Flash Furniture Vinyl Executive Office Chair and the second one is Flash Furniture High Back Leather Chair. didn't search at UK market but Flash Furniture is a big brand and I am sure they have covered their UK market.

Amazon Big &
Tall executive chair supports up to 350 pounds! I like you am heavy as well and this has been a great purchase.

I got mine in black from Amazon and I looooooove it! It comes with a cute little stool as well.

Here's where I got mine. It's a few dollars more, but if you have Amazon Prime - free shipping! Woooo!

Yeah, for sure. I have my eye on an Open Wheeler cockpit right now:

https://www.amazon.com/Openwheeler-Advanced-Driving-Simulator-Shifter/dp/B005ZQAGIU/

Under $400...still seems crazy expensive to me, but far, far cheaper than the other solutions I've seen! Plus I think it'd be possible to mod the arms fairly easily to accommodate a yoke/pedal, stick/throttle, and keyboard/mouse setup so you can play racing games, flying games, space games, and regular games all in one chair. Throw a couple of bass shakers on the chair itself & voila, the ultimate multi-gaming cockpit setup!

At just under 6', I have to really stretch up to see through the eyepiece of my Z8 when it's pointed straight up, and i often just stand and bend over, which isn't too comfortable. Being a little bit taller would help me a ton.

A better choice would really be to get a better chair like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0052PJFCW/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1469504489&sr=8-2&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=astronomy+chair&dpPl=1&dpID=41PHQ29dVGL&ref=plSrch

Amazon, much cheaper (like half the price or less of other bed-in-a-box stores) and have great reviews.

Got mine on sale and it's great! https://www.amazon.ca/Zinus-Memory-Green-Mattress-Queen/dp/B00Q7EPFT4?th=1

sure, this are the bass shakers that i got,
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B002LQAHPE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and this was the amplifier https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00OJX08YW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


this where the chepests parts i could get from amazon on EU, for what i gather there are superior bass shakers like this one https://www.amazon.de/Dayton-Audio-TT25-16-Tactile-Transducer/dp/B0045W10VW/ref=sr_1_27?ie=UTF8&qid=1499762203&sr=8-27&keywords=bass+shakers
but i didn't want to overpay for something i dindt know if i was gona use/enjoy.


Couple of tips, that amplifier works very well, since its not for music even if if you get some distortion but its underpower for the supposed max wattage from the shakers (its 2x40W + 68W) and the shakers are 100W. At this point i normaly dont push the amp to the maximum since the chairs starts to make noices and shakes all the time, so i belive i dont need a more powerfull one.

Also get some proper audio cables, and a power suply, i cant find a laptop style unit that gives 12V +7A so i went for a normal ATX power supply.

At this point i just need a extra bass shaker to put on the rudder pedals, since its kind of a immersion breaker that my feet are "grounded" from the vibration.

It fits over the wheel wheels! And you're right, the storage "box" is slightly above the height of the folded down back seats. There's metal brackets on the leafs and it all just fits enough that it's snug and doesn't move around when set up.

I have a sketch with some measurements written on it that I'll dig up for you. Mattress I got from Amazon, wood is just 3/4th inch Furniture wood from Home Depot.

Works great, I've driven a 500 miles with it permanently in the back and haven't had any problem with movement or shifting. Also is a good way to organize the trunk.

Honestly you can go on Amazon and get quality beds. I bought a memory foam queen mattress online for $300 shipped. I worked as a delivery driver for a mattress company for 2 years, and I can verify that this mattress is on par with the quality of our supposed "$2000" memory foam mattresses. Mark ups are INSANE. My boss would spend around 2k for a delivery from the manufacturer, which would contain something like 6-8 full beds (mattress, boxspring, frame). Each of these would sell for between 1k and 4k with delivery, varying only somewhat in quality. Only the really low end "discount" beds were noticeably less comfortable. The one I picked up online stands up to many of the luxury beds I've worked with, its the best mattress I've ever slept on. 10/10 would buy a bed from Amazon any day and probably from here on out.

Edit: for those who have been asking, here is a link to the one I picked up: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NH0XWNU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_gS3ZAbADH6PPE

I'm in the same boat as you. Even the Mississippi part actually. Office Depot has desks as well so you could look at those in person. I know we have a good few here. I've been through two of these. They do the job, just don't kick at the back panels like I do or they'll break off lol

I don't have a Buttkicker but I have a homemade equivalent using one of these.

It's absolutely awesome. Feeling your ship hum rattle and vibrate is massive for immersion in VR.

Just got a new desk a little bit ago. Pretty cheap, big, and sturdy, and my dual monitor mount clamps on to it (not perfectly, but it gets the job done and I haven't had any troubles) Some reviews said theirs came damaged, but mine was perfectly fine.

AmazonBasics Big & Tall Executive Chair https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DN7NFRG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_S4ufzbME26DRG

I am 6'5" and rock this chair. I can't really put my head back on it, maybe a gaming chair could do that. But the back support and comfort is amazing. It has adjustable lumbar.

I personally use this one and I think it's pretty good, used it for about a year now. better than any $100 gaming chair I've used.

edit: fixed link

I got the 12" yeah, looks like it's on sale now as well:




https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01NH0XWNU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_CysSCb2YYTVEQ




I find it pretty firm, even sitting on the edge it doesn't give way as much as a worn out spring mattress will, I was really surprised. I'm not a tiny person either, so average sized people will find it really firm.

I'll basically always buy this style from now on, and at this cost and the convenience of having it show up at my house why not?

I'm not OP, but I got mine from Amazon and it had the best price that I found anywhere:

Second buying one on Amazon! Didn't think I liked memory foam either but I stand corrected. We got this one, basically a knockoff Casper: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00Q7EPFT4?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title&th=1 .. pretty sure mattress stores are exclusively for money laundering.

Options are pretty limited at that price point but these are 2 of the most popular on Amazon for $100.

If I were doing a 5 day build, I'd skip insulation. I was in a van this summer that I had insulated with polyiso, and when it was cold outside, it was cold inside the van, and when it was hot outside, it was super hot inside the van. I never got my electrical hooked up either, so I'd skip that too. Bought a 50,000 mAh battery bank. Never really used it. I did use a long 12v extension with a splitter to charge my phone, run a fan, etc.

I'd probably put down subfloor, that's cheapish and a one day project.

For the bed, I bought this frame for $60 and this memory foam mattress, but you could probably get a cheaper twin mattress. The nice thing about the bed frame is that you can store plenty of stuff underneath it in storage totes.

Huge fan of this chair below. It was the only chair my dad would buy for the employees at his former workplace. He recommended I buy one so I did. I used to have it at home but I took it to work because our chairs were trash. Thinking about buying another for home. I sit in it for 8-11 hours a day and I’m always comfortable.

Someone built a really nice one that looks like it didn't require welding (edit: actually looks like there is a bit of welding invovled).. It's using the X-sim software.

I suppose you could use the following chair with that project.

There is also the Gecko which is 2dof for your upper body. It's the most affordable non dyi system I've seen.

The IKEA SIGNUM cable tray is a miracle worker. Easy install on the underside of the tabletop!

Depending on how much they're willing to spend, I'd highly recommend a Herman Miller Aeron with headrest. It's one of the best ergonomic chairs on the market that has a 'reasonable' price.

Memory foam 12" queen mattress for $179, regular $299... and never priced lower it appears.

In for one, looks like an amazing deal!

Added pics to the dropbox. More info on the platform here. Forgot to advertise the desk chair, but it's for sale as well. Send me a pm for my number if you're interested!

I bought one of these last year, and I'm happy with it. I opted not to get the armrests that swivel out and kind of wish I did. The seat and back don't unlock for a full backward tilt, so I can't do that lean back with a controller thing like i could with other chairs.

If you're able, check with your local office supply stores that aren't major chains, though those aren't terrible (best buy, office max etc). I found a place that does their own work alongside being an office supply, so they're using all the products they're showcasing. I couldn't afford most of their high end stuff, but ended up talking with practically everyone there and trying out a bunch of neat sit-stand desks.

Anyway, I learned the salesman as a dealer can customize some parts of the order instead of the usual pret-a-portier orders. Some manufacturers have this on their own sites, but you tend to pay a higher premium. Or the salesman's commission in my case, but I don't mind since I went for advice on a chair and got plenty. (well this ended up being a longer post than I meant)

Futons tend to be uncomfortable. I think your best bet is getting a basic bed frame with storage underneath. It has an optional attachment thing for a headboard. I really like my Casper mattress.

This is the body shaker. It's marked as Rock Wood 100w/4 ohm.

This is the amp, 200w per channel 150w bass.

I wasn't running it flat out so I don't think I was pushing it too hard. Like I said it only got hot while I was playing games. I've played music for 4-5 hours straight with out any issue.

I am currently using an OpenWheeler seat and the G27 setup and people have responded to it really well and it is a great setup in my opinion.

This is my super budget setup because I like sleeping on the floor.

it works great! granted, I don't need anything super cush, and I almost never fold it, but I like it. i'll probably get a topper at some point for it. I wouldn't pay $200 I don't think. they aren't that cozy.

I love this chair as well.

Sorry for the late response! But I'd recommend a signum rack of some sort, such as the one I have https://www.amazon.com/IKEA-SIGNUM-management-horizontal-silver/dp/9178905931/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=ikea+signum+rack&qid=1572043071&sr=8-1 or a channel raceway https://www.amazon.com/Channel-Cable-Raceway-Black-Length/dp/B002DNM42O/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3VJFBCJRV8GS6&keywords=channel+raceway&qid=1572043089&sprefix=channel+race%2Caps%2C155&sr=8-5 if youre not comfortable with screwing into your desk. Hope this helps!

These can hold your surge protector off the ground as well.

If you don't want to screw anything onto the wall or desk then you could consider a cable management sleeve to gather up all the cables and make it look better with just 1 round tube.

https://www.amazon.com/Management-Sleeve-JOTO-Computer-Entertainment/dp/B015HWXG4M

edit: I own a sleeve but it has holes for cables to exit. like this picture.

What's your budget?

The best chair I've sat on was the Aeron chair by Herman Miller. These were a chair provided to me by my employer in the office. This is an ergonomic chair that focuses on back health and has a mesh construction to avoid sticking and allows for better breathing. This is around $1,000, unfortunately.

I own a Aeron alternative that I'm sitting on that is a pretty good alternative. It's closer to $400, but it's an office max exclusive chair called the WorkPro Quantum. Has most of the ergonomic features the Aeron does.

I bought a set of china for like $40 from a thrift store several years before I got married. It's really pretty and I use it when we have 'fancy' dinners (we sometimes do xmas or easter or something at my house with a bunch of family - I bought a set of 'complimentary' (plain white) dishes and alternate if we have too many people). And we have our normal plates and bowls and stuff that came from Target or wherever when we moved in together that we use daily. We didn't register for any dinnerware. Instead we registered for this: http://www.amazon.com/Design-Toscano-Sixteenth-Century-Italian-Replica/dp/B001MA1W8G

This is the one that I just bought a couple months ago. I use a plastic drawer set next to it to contain all the makeup though.

I bought mine in black, and it was shipped by amazon at the time, so it didn't have the ridiculous shipping cost, but it looks like the other two colors are still shipped by amazon.

If you're looking for something with more storage in it by default, this is one that I was also considering, that I've also seen some of the ladies on this sub with.

I've been tasked with organizing the rats nest behind the [TV stand.] (https://www.homedepot.com/p/Walker-Edison-Furniture-Company-White-Buffet-with-Storage-HD52C4CTWH/300802004?cm_mmc=Shopping|THD|DigitalDecor|google|D59+Furniture|_pkw__pmt__product_300802004&mid=ebZNWaojR|dm_mtid_8903yuu57254_pcrid__pkw__pmt__product_300802004_slid_&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4eXPBRCtARIsADvOjY2-3ltqsUUytnBTDXK-LOgWl8nodLAWkO_wj9FrNzqoxIh-RCWDGiMaAhy3EALw_wcB) I was planning on hanging an [IKEA Signum] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/9178905931/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fBJ-zbNX3XS9G) vertically behind the entertainment center and running cables back and forth through there to make them disappear nicely.

My main concern is that the entertainment center is made out of MDF board. I'm afraid if I try to drill into it I'm going to mess up the entertainment center and find myself in all new trouble! Any recommendations?

Well, it is expensive. The wheel I got on sale for Christmas ($199):

The seat for my birthday (full price listed):

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005ZQAGIU/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/188-8546093-8227452

Without the wheel in general, I don't know if if still be playing GT6, it is that much better with everything. I had 220 hours around there before the wheel, now I'm at 310 hours with everything. Those last 100 hours would have not been there if I had a controller.

Thank you, I enjoy it to.

Check out memory foam mattresses on amazon. They don't need a boxspring and are super cheap if you get a 6 inch or 8 inch one. I have this one, and you can't even tell how thin it is unless you jump on it or something:

For a bit more you could go with this and this. We have both in queen size and we love them. Even ended up getting our kid the twin size ones.

Man, what I have found in my search is comfortable, quality-made chairs are practically mutually exclusive with highly adjustable chairs.

The best-reviewed closest equivalent I've seen to your old chair is this AmazonBasics Big & Tall Executive Chair.

If you really want something with a tilting back, adjustable armrests, etc there is the the DXRacer Boss Series which is styled a little closer to a traditional office chair than the rest of DXRacer's lineup and is the big-and-tall variant of the DXRacer Elite Series chair. Of course, caveat emptor about gaming chairs.

I would put the shelf about this height: https://st.hzcdn.com/fimgs/c8514d300fe72825_8618-w500-h666-b0-p0--contemporary-bedroom.jpg and also I would find a lamp that better goes with the room, you know?

Okay, how about this desk? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HRYBYRU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485463612&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=cheap%2Bl%2Bdesk&dpPl=1&dpID=31tYTP46ITL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1 It's the cheapest one I could find.

I have had my mattress on the floor for years and I love it. Sleeping on height is weird for me at this point. My partner sleeps on the carpeted floor because his back gives him issues. Point being, sleeping on the floor isn't necessarily bad. This is the mattress I have http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DRR8G4U/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1421632456&sr=8-1&dpPl=1&dpID=215u5v96igL&ref=plSrch&pi=AC_SX200_QL40

The thing about beds is, its a matter is what works for you. Try a few out and take your time because most are non returnable. The one I have is one of the few beds that are returnable if it doesn't work for you.

IKEA - SIGNUM Cable management, horizontal, silver color (FBA) https://www.amazon.com/dp/9178905931/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_7ow3CbRVXK6Y2

I use one of these and it's worked out pretty well

I bought one of these and it is the best thing I've bought. I know it is pricey but you'll never need anything else. You can find cheaper versions as well.

Herman Miller chairs are still some of the best.

I have one at home and one at work. They’re used extensively throughout production studios for tv/movies and they even use them at the Blizzard Arena in Burbank.

I bought it in black and I love it so far.

I'm about your size. This is what I have and I love it. https://www.amazon.com/Black-Vinyl-Executive-Swivel-Piping/dp/B007N134L6

we just got a guest bed mattress from Amazon. Queen size, memory foam - $250 including tax. It's not quite as good as our super-fancy mattress (that we overpaid for), but it's way better than an air bed!

We have prime, so it came in about 2 days.

its a really sturdy and well built desk but you cant really use vesa mounts or anything easily

I dunno if this is the right place to ask but I was wondering what the best in replicating something like the IKEA Signum but a little cheaper. Don't really feel like it should be $25 for something so simple but I could be wrong.

I got this off a neighborhood resale/posting website. He posted it 40 mins prior to me messaging him and I got it first. He told me when we picked it up that 6 people had messaged him about it after I had. :) I'll be using it to store my paints since I don't drink. Pic of the art on the inside. I found it on Amazon and it's worth $149.99.

I like that you can rotate the bins so things are easier to access as needed and that I can pull a bin down to put toys in it then put it back up.


And this one but haven't put this one together yet. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00B2QU5YW/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?qid=1451264069&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX220_SY330_FMwebp_QL65

Edit to add: those are the ones we have for the living room and family room. For her bedroom she has a 9 cube shelf with cloth bins and open shelves for books and a big toy box

This matresse from Amazon has 5 stars rating, cost 400$ USD and has a 30 night sleep trial. Good deal IMO.

Just bought this and this after two different friends recommended it. Maybe you could fit it into your budget? We actually had the same plan (wait until we buy a house in two years) but life is too short to sleep in an uncomfortable/too small bed.

Ok so this is what I'm looking at buying this will work..how to I make speaker wire to go from bass shaker to amp though? its simple red to red and black to black or I only need one as one is bass one treble?

bass shaker,

www.themattressunderground.com is a fabulous resource for mattress buying. Spoiler alert: The mattress industry mostly wants to screw you. Buy independent/factory direct, almost never name brands.

Here's a specific guide to buying based on budget. A sub $500 budget probably means a "throwaway" mattress, which doesn't mean you can't find something comfortable and supportive, only that it's unlikely to last more than a few years.

Edit: I forgot: I'd stay the hell away from used mattresses. One particular reason: Bed bugs are Satan in bug form, and there is no way to be sure a used mattress doesn't have them.

IKEA has a cage like thing to screw under your desk. There are cable runways that you put under your desk also. P.S. I don't know how to shorten links.

Now get yourself a cable management desk attachment 😉

I bought one of these frame and put it on top of these. And it's an extra thick mattress, to boot.

Buttkickers? Haven't tried with racing sims yet, just using as a subwoofer alternative and its incredible, gives a placebo effect that a sub is playing while everyone around is asleep and vibrations really immerses you in music. Setting up was just disconnecting wires from a sub and connecting to buttkicker, other one runs on the second sub output my amp has. Im using these .

you guys have no sense of humor, but get a mattress delivered from amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Zinus-Gel-Infused-Green-Memory-Mattress/dp/B01NH0XWNU/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=mattress&qid=1558276921&s=home-garden&sr=1-79

I bought a memory foam mattress/bed frame on Amazon for $400 and it is SOOO COMFY!

Amazon! This is the table.

Not sure if this will work for you but someone posted the Amazon link for it here - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005CWHY7I/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_p5yGwbSTH52CE

Something like this may help. It won't hide the wires completely but you would have to crawl under the desk to see them.

Regarding a bed, a 6-inch memory foam mattress is $106 from Amazon. It ships with all the air compressed out of it, so you just need to unroll it and let it puff back into shape.

This is the mattress. It was discounted on prime day to $180 for the queen and $150 for the full if I remember correctly. I was thinking of buying it and noticed the same review as the OP.
