After living in my first apartment for a year now, I'm going through my first apartment checklist and going over what I actually recommend buying and what's not worth it.
There are so many products to consider that it can be difficult to remember everything which is why I originally came up with this first apartment checklist. From kitchen utensils to mattresses, to cleaning products... it's hard to know what you really need!!
A year later... there are some things I bought for my first apartment that I use every day and were totally worth the money! And there are some that have not held up well.
I'm an extreme planner so for the six months before moving in, I put lists together of everything I needed to buy for my first apartment.
I made a printable version of this huge first apartment checklist so that you can use it and make sure you have everything you need. You DO NOT need to buy everything (I didn't...it's expensive!) but having a list that you can refer back to makes life so much easier.
This video is all about the best first apartment checklist.

You know you’re an adult when you get so excited about kitchen appliances😍
Girl yes 🥰😩
Or furniture.
Yes! I'm planning out my fixer upper home's kitchen. The excitement I felt when I lined the demo cabinet up with a countertop swatch I liked and the brass handle I loved. 😍 Great feeling seeing your vision and dreams come to life.
I’m old enough to be your great grandmother but I love following you. I will be 65 this year and after being done with raising my husband and putting my daughter through ten years of college, I decided to go back to school to earn my family nurse practitioner degree! Yes, I’m a million but I’m super healthy and have a ton of good miles left on me. I’m going into my last year and I committed to train in an unserved area. I have a nice home but will have to live in an apartment for that year because I refuse to commute. I signed a lease on a little casita and can’t wait to start styling it ❤️! All of God’s blessings and I was you much success- I love your style 🛍
Sandra, I know this is 4 months later, but I just wanted to let you know that you are a 100% certified baddie. We love an independent queen!
I love your determination and how you feel alive even just through your comment
This video was very helpful. Thank you for the checklist as well.
Great video! Love your advice and home decor/organization. So funny you are over the bed me too which is why i just replaced it 😃 Keep up the good work 😘
I just had to comment and let you know your videos have been soooo helpful!!! Moving into my first apartment in a few months!🤗
Great video ❤ getting an apartment is so stressful lol especially when getting w2, paystubs and bank statements I had to pay an online vendor for help
I just want to thank you for your check list. I'm in the process of trying to get my first apartment. I do have some of the items already, thanks to my mom, but I still need to get the apartment and plan out the arrangements of where I want to put the furniture first. And see what might fit in it. Thank God I picked out the right size dinning room table.
I was lucky that my parents owned a large amount of land and got a little shed built so that my siblings and I could have a place to store stuff for our houses for when we move out and have us a few things for when we move out for christmas leading up to when we all finished school
So excited I am going apartment hunting tommorow 🎉❤ can’t wait and yes so true you know when you’re an official adult when you get so excited when coming to apartment stuff
you really helped me so much , I love you 🥺😭😂💓💓💓
The mattress is not available anymore. Is there any other that you can recommend. I’m looking to get a new one ?
I was watching this and switched over to tiktok and your my first video that popped up 😂🥰
Could you PLEASEEE make a video about your experience getting a storage unit before actually moving into your apartment?! Maybe about any insurances and how long you had a storage , stuff like that? I’m debating on getting one while I begin my journey of moving out. I appreciate your videos and content!!!! :)
Oh my god that’s my exact plan . Getting a storage unit and buying everything little by little until I get everything so by the time I move out ( end of the year 🤞🏾) I’ll be set ! I say go for it !
Hi! I just wanted to ask whats the size of your Mattress? is it full or queen? I wanted to purchase the same headboard but then I’m not sure what size of mattress should I buy! Thanks in advance!
What kind of bed frame would you go for next?
Rugs and carpets hm? Nah...I will be moving soon and one of the things on the TO-DO-List is removing all rugs and carpets from my new place (I don't like them, too hard to keep clean!)...ever stepped on carpet that hasn't been kept clean? Yeah, I don't like huge dust clouds!
One year after getting everything for my first apartment, I found that there are some things I LOVE and a few I don't know if I would recommend 😬 What are you loving in your apartment?!
That it is mine (more or less - it actually belongs to family, but I'll inherit that, so it kind of already belongs to me!), that I don't have to pay rent, that I can (I am not actually moved in yet) actually paint it (I despise white as a color for walls! Every room will get painted a different color...I've already started with that!), that I'll finally have my very own (not shared with anybody!) space and internet-connection (finally nobody complaining about me downloading a lot of stuff etc.)...I'd run in terror, if I had to move in with anybody! I need my me-time after work (otherwise I'd go nuclear on the person bothering me!)!
What color is your bed frame? Grey or charcoal ?
Mattress Topper unavailable 😢
amazinggg 😍😍😍😍😊 Apartment Essentials WOW loving the #LUMIY lightblade desk lamp it like soo FREAKING BRIGHT 😊😊😊
I’m just impressed at how much nicer your stuff is compared to what I owned after living on my own for a year 🤣🙌🏼
The list isn't making it to my email its staying at 50%
I cant find the amazon mattress - is it under that exact name on amazon?
the link is in the description!
@@BySophiaLee hey, is this a general checklist or more tailored for women than men?
Can you do a video on how to begin a TH-cam channel?
do you mind putting timestamps for easier navigation
good suggestion!! just added :)
You probably need to clean your dish washer, that's why you get that film on the glasses. Buy one of those things you put in the dishwasher, then turn it on.
oooo I'll definitely try that!!
$300 for a plywood box???
I'm starting an online "coffee table" store right away!
😂😂😂
it’s not wise to skimp on the cookware, especially pans. cheaper made can be more toxic if misused and abused. it really doesn’t work the same either especially if they’re leeching chemicals into the food you’re eating
The cups should be hand washed most likely it's ur dish washer
At Walmart
The content of this video is probably very helpful, but the music is so distracting 🙁
The mattress is now $370 ☹️ love your videos and checklists though!
prices change….wow…who would have thunk
No safety or cleaning gear!? (IE: fire/ smoke detector, carbo monoxide detector, fire 🔥 extinguisher 🧯, etc)
Why would your apartment not already have smoke detectors and fire extinguishers?
The way she says Cuisinart instead of cuisine art
calling a 150 dollar night stand cheap is crazy to me
Am i the only male that watches these types of videos?
why do u sound so out of breath and like you're about to cry this entire video...? are you okay?
u sound sad
i was asked to provide 2 months worth of biweekly stubs and bank statement just to meet 3x the rent for my apartment and i don't make up to the amount... thanks to CYBER CREDIBLE he helped me modify my stubs to meet the required amount and i got approved. y'all can get help from him for your apartment approval
