This will be a quick one. I was tired of my "Dana Linn Bailey" bedroom setup of some cheap 20 dollar plastic storage bin drawers. I did what I had to do which the money I had at the time. So I decided on getting a urban loft style set to make the bedroom look chic and cool. However, when I went to this popular place that sells contemporary furniture, I was blown away by the sticker stock. 500 bucks for a 5 drawer chest, 800 bucks for a dresser, 200 for a headboard and 150 dollars for a crummy nightstand. They tried to convince me about their free setup and delivery service along with a new finance program but I thanked them for their time and walked out the door in disgust. I'm not some sucker MC who falls for some Beverly Hills Cop Banana In The Tailpipe Bullshit unless its me sticking my banana in another man's tailpipe....but I'm getting off subject. Lets continue.
-
Vince, what's your solution?
-
..
-
Well, continue. What happened?
-
So I decided to do my research which led me to a company called Tvilum that makes affordable urban loft furniture. The only downside is that like IKEA, everything is broken down to the last nail and bolt with a lot of assembly. In addition, the hardware on the furniture is mostly plastic. However the pricing on the furniture is super affordable and because it could be purchased at Walmart, I was able to use my Sam's Club Gift Cards. The dresser was just 219.00, the 5 drawer chest was 80 dollars, the nightstands were 51 bucks. I can dig that. I had about 200 dollars in gift cards so I end, I spend about 140 bucks total. Walmart also gives free shipping over 100.00 along with 2 day shipping time
http://www.tvilum.com/
Everything got there fast by the UPS driver and I helped haul it in. Here is some of the goods...still waiting on nightstands but they will be here Wednesday.

Assembly was the biggest thing. I started out with the 5 drawer chest. It was a lot of instructions and there was no wording...just pictures which actually would be a good thing for people who can't read or write. Took about 4 hours to get the first piece down

-
That's a pretty cheap price.
-
I love these threads. Keep the info and pictures comming Vince!!
-
I took a break and had dinner and then started on the main dresser. Assembly was the same so I was able to go a little faster but it still took 3 1/2 hours as it had more drawers and items to put together. There's a lot of complaints on this but its really due to them using electric screwdrivers which warp the drillings. If you assemble any furniture Getbiggers, always use hand tools. You won't save time with electric shit and you're more likely to damage the shit.
Here's the main dresser freshly finished and the next picture is with its current setup. I'll get some proper decor later like some 5% hats, white hood and some fake Rolex watches

-
Now remember when I said that one of the downsides of the furniture was the cheap plastic handles instead of metal. No problem, I used to work at Lowes so I have 13 of these coming for 1.49 each. Hardware prob solved. Too easy ;D

I'll update this thread when the nightstands and the headboard gets here...BTW, headboard was 70 bucks. But that's pretty much it Getbiggers. No financing...just had to sweat through 7 1/2 hours of assembly. That's all baby...That's SportsCenter.... ;D ;D
-
Nicely done Vince. Neat bedcover also.
The "TV" might get some comments on here though ;D

Serious question, and you don't have to answer, but is this company paying you for pimping their product? No hate if they are, just asking.

That's what I ask people every day....They go to places like Rooms To Go and get a whole bunch of marked up shit with the premise of no interest for 3 years not realizing that they make their money from the markups to begin with and collecting 3 yrs interest for people who forget payments as a bonus. The even more stupid people go to Rent A Center......
The country is in debt but a lot of people do it to themselves. I simply removed the labor and hardware equation to get the best deal.

Congratulations on persevering for so long. As a fully paid up lazy sh1t (who ironically and hypocritically despises laziness in others), I have to confess that on the rare occasion I get something flat-packed, I have a guy come and assemble it for me. And while I'm feeling confessional, I also have a gardener and employ decorators when I need them
Back to flat-pack guy though, having watched him work, he mostly uses a variable speed electric screwdriver, but does indeed perform those last few turns by hand, so the OP is on the money here.
so BB related as he is working his forearms...

You cant assemble Ikea stuff ? It is designed so even monkeys can do it. You are boasting a lot about beeing loaded rich and such, "gardener this" decorator that", "flat packed only on rare occasions", "fully paid but lazy", "made it big early in career so money forever and ever avaliable" " can do what I want" You are transforming in to a look at me I am the man kind of poster lately. What is this " crazy adventure" you started that made you so rich? Care to share us some details and back up some of your claims?

This, even then it's not always necessary as long as you take your time don't recal ever using the torque settings, I wouldn't even attempt to assemble furniture if I don't have my battery drill handy, takes far too long.

Lol, not a chance in hell. Vince is just delusional. He thinks making the big time, is being able to afford the KFC 20 piece family bucket, for himself.
His version of fine dining is splurging for extra hush puppies at Long John Silver.

That never happened....much like most of your fantasy stories. I do actually believe you are delusional enough to brag about taking 4 hours to put together cardboard furniture. I do not believe you have a keen eye (or wallet) for interior decorating. You should ask Vissy for some advice.

Ok folks:
I had just left Planet Fitness (yes I work out there, its cheap) and decided to pick up some grub before I went home so I went to Moe's Southwest Grill. When I walked in it was crowded but over in the corner was this white guy that I slept with the previous week. To my astonishment, he was sitting with what I presumed to be his wife and 4 screaming little kids. He looked over and somewhat cringed a bit and for good reason. I have a general policy to where I don't mess with married guys as I've had some issues with that and he clearly lied. It was a sobering moment to think that while he was telling his wife that he loved her, that he also loved 8 inches of my black kielbasa pounding his ass for a good 30 minutes and shooting all over his mouth (he wanted it).
Anyway, I got distracted and the worker asked me what I wanted to order. I took a deep breath and loudly announced that I wanted a HOMEWRECKER!! The guy simply just shook his head and put it down on the table while his wife was asking if he had a headache.....
I rule.

Hahaha - talk about getting my post ass-backwards - I wasn't boasting I was actually confessing to being rubbish at alpha-male stuff - I am sh1t at DIY, gardening and decorating, so am forced to pay someone better than me to do it! LOL Jesus wakeup.... ;D
And I am nowhere near the point of having "money forever and ever available" so I can "do what I want" either - like Big Al McKechnie for example - where did that come from?? I had a little luck years ago, but if you think I'm going to provide evidence on the board you should know better about this place ;) PM me if you're really that interested...
You've been posting very angry lately buddy, are there things..?

Shut your ass up otter. This isn't the only artwork I'm getting in. A couple of his prints came available so its a great investment. However, I love Patrick Nagel's art....awesome 80's art deco that's better than a lot of crap out there

What makes a beauty rest black series worth the money? ???
I bought a ghost mattress a year or so ago for 1200 and it is nice.

Now remember when I said that one of the downsides of the furniture was the cheap plastic handles instead of metal. No problem, I used to work at Lowes so I have 13 of these coming for 1.49 each. Hardware prob solved. Too easy ;D

Great thread. I love to see hyper-intelligent people like Vince coming up with innovative solutions for life's problems.
My solution is not to be poor, but I'm sure the info in this thread is valuable to some Getbiggers.

I’m not sure but it is incredible.Its about 24” thick and has a pillow top built into it.So comfortable.They has them from 3-6k when I bought mine maybe 3 years ago and the most comfortable was the 4K one for me anyways.I get a great sleep most nights.Before this one I spent maybe 1000 at most on a mattress and they all sucked.

Were do you buy fitted sheets to fit a mattress that's 24" thick? Beautyrest Black Natasha Plush Pillow Top King Mattress runs slightly under $4,000. It is 16" thick.
You learn something every day. I answered my own question. I'm looking to replace my king with a queen bed, so this information is good to have. Thanks. You are right $1,000. doesn't buy you much in the way of a mattress. I'm thinking of an adjustable base so that it is easier to read in bed. I'm not sure a really thick mattress would work in this application.
Apparently there are mattresses 24" thick available...who knew? Sheets to fit a 24" thick mattress are available on-line. Looks like quality king sized sheet sets are available on-line for slightly over $100.

That's like asking for what's the difference between a MacBook pro and a 10 year old used mattress with cum stains on it. :D

Yeah never measured but it’s thick as hell for a mattress and weighs a ton.We definitely had to get special king size sheets to fit it,none at the stores would fit.

Well at least if it's a pillow-top you don't have to flip it, like the mattresses of times passed. Every so often I turn the 'piece of shit' mattress I bought less than 5 years ago in hopes of diminishing the ruts it has. Even my 15 lb. pup makes a indent when she lays on it. It's a Stearns and Foster pillow-top that was supposed to be top-of-the-line. The salesman lied. No surprise there!

Yeah pretty much every mattress before the beauty rest black was crap but also under a grand and they indented within a month.I rotate the mattress monthly just to avoid any dips,lumps etc...now.
