  • Aeropress for the coffee people who want something easy to store and clean.

  • Portable Bluetooth speaker. I have the Anker Soundcore 2, and use it all the time in my studio apartment.

  • Deli containers for food storage.

  • Electric mixer. It will save you a lot of strain if you often mix by hand.

  • Water filtration system of your choice. I use ZeroWater.

  • Humidifier for those dry months.

  • PC gamer? Use emulators for older console games? Get an Xbox controller for those non mouse and keyboard games (Journey et. al were on sale recently).

  • Canister vacuum cleaner. I use Bissell Zing (about $75), but they're better than bagless vacuums.

  • Plants for literal quality of life. https://www.thespruce.com/easy-houseplants-hard-to-kill-4141665

I cannot recommend the Aeropress enough. It makes such great coffee at its price point. Its quicker and less wasteful than a lot of other popular single cup options coughKeurigcough

Yes, I love my aeropress!! With enough dialing in I can usually make a better cup of coffee with a pourover setup that better expresses the differences of specific beans. But the aeropress makes a darn good cup of coffee every time without going through all that hassle. I use mine almost daily.
