Move in is the next few weeks. I've lived on my "own" (roommate I never interacted with) for a couple months my last semester of college, but that was a temporary setup whereas I'm hopefully moving out for good this time.

Bear in mind that the place has window/wall A/C and electric heating.

Things I'm already considering:

  • Drain guard
  • Bidet
  • Cold brew coffee maker
  • Rice cooker
  • Space heater? I'd like to keep the temp largely down during the winter to save money while warming up the part of the place I'm in
  • Key for washer/dryer

Things I already have:

  • Most furniture
  • Air fryer
  • Seltzer water thingy
  • Meal prep containers

General advice is also welcome!

Congrats on your new place ๐Ÿ›– I'd like to suggest lamps if you don't have them. Both table and floor. Overhead lighting sucks eggs. Speaking of, if you like them, hard boiled eggs are the the easiest yummiest snack to keep on hand. Let's see. Throw rugs. Ottoman. Putting a towel under your cutting board keeps it from sliding. Meet your neighbors and bake them some cookies if they seem nice.
