It has 3 doors and cheap!

I love buying furniture. :( I wish I could rebuy everything in my room.


I saw that one and it's really really cheap. I put together a PAX system, for now just one 40 inch wide frame with 2 doors as shown in the image. It currently would be enough to hold all my hanging stuff, although it would be tight. There would also be 2 shelves and 1 drawer maybe. That alone would be $370, but it's a lot better quality. Unfortunately the doors make these things stupidly expensive. Each door is 90 bucks. The sliding door is 120.

I have a closet outside my room where I could hang winter stuff, but suits and stuff like that I like to keep inside my room.


I don't think a corner unit would fit because of the windows. But i'll have to get exact measurements. A bed drawer is a good idea, although they tend to be pricey :*(.

Btw, the mattress I was looking at goes by these names... they're all the same with different names.

Sealy Posturepedic Maymont is also known as the Sealy Posturepedic Pecan Ridge. It also goes by the names: Sealy Posturepedic Spellman, Sealy Posturepedic Amersham, Sealy Posturepedic Celestial Sun, Sealy Posturepedic Linwood Springs, Sealy Posturepedic Opaque, Sealy Posturepedic Indigo Cove, Sealy Posturepedic Marina Isle, Sealy Posturepedic Otter Trail, Sealy Posturepedic Bloomsbury, Sealy Posturepedic Quaker Lane, Sealy Posturepedic Bethel Heights, Sealy Posturepedic Westbend and Sealy Posturepedic Greenhurst.

Like wtf.

It's more annoying buying a mattress than a car.

oh pish posh, don't be afraid to cover a window. You have like 4 of them!

You gotta spend some money for convenience if you're going to live in a little area like that. Just buy the mattress and sleep on the floor while you save up for the bed. ;)

10000% agreed - great point Stag.

It's worth it to spend more on certain items like a wall mounted TV so that you save space in a small area like that. That's how all my friends maximize their space in their NYC apartments. Each piece must be purchased with a ton of care for how much space it takes up.
