Hurry! The Target Back-to-School Sale Has *Loads* of Dorm Essentials Up for Grabs, from Bedding to Furniture

Every college student needs a good night's sleep to keep them motivated. And if you want to make sure that happens, you best scoop up this all-season down-alternative comforter. With the look of fluffy Brooklinen bedding and the cozy feel of a Buffy piece, I really don't think you can beat it for the price (which is now as low as $35). Just hear why one buyer is glad they got it: "The fabric is very soft and comfortable. It is appropriate for year-round use and washes and dries nicely. This is the second one I've purchased because my family is so pleased with it." Well, in that case, you might want to pick up a few!

When you haven't got much space to spare, a two-in-one storage solution can come to your rescue. Like this functional ottoman, for example, which clocks in at 38 inches wide and and 17 inches high. The contemporary-looking number features chic button tufting and doubles as a spacious storage trunk. In other words, your college kid will get the best of both worlds, since they can store extra clothes and books inside, *and* use it as an extra seat the next time they host a game night. Um, score! Why else do you think it has more than 100 positive reviews? As one buyer says, "This ottoman appears to be very well-made and durable, which is surprising for this price point."

Whether you're looking for a rug to warm up those cold dorm room floors or one to use as the new centerpiece of your living room, let me introduce you to this beautiful Blue Nile Mills piece. You can look forward to its power-loomed design, which supposedly keeps the rug's colors looking vibrant for longer. Better yet, the intricately patterned rug won't just add a vintage vibe to any space, it'll also function as a totally durable buffer in high-traffic areas. Thanks to its super low pile (which clocks in at just 0.20 inches), it'll be easy to clean with a bit of mild detergent. But don't just take my word for it. "First, functionality: The rug is incredibly soft, both in feel and cushion (for a thinner rug)," one reviewer raves. "It adds an elegance that makes it look more expensive than it is!" This 7.6-foot by 9.6-foot rectangular option is great to cover a larger floor area, but there a ton of other sizes available (and all of them are on sale RN!).

This four- to six-piece sheet set may be their ticket to the sweetest dreams this school year. As one customer shares, "[They're] soft, not too [thick], not too thin. I also love that the set comes with [up to] four pillowcases! I love everything about these sheets and will probably never own sheets from anywhere else." But that's not the only reason your college student will be a fan. While the pieces are made of 100 percent polyester, they're double-brushed for extra softness. What more can they ask for?

Living in a dorm or apartment means making the most of a small space, so do them a favor and scoop up this sleek organizer shelf, which will maximize their storage capabilities and give their room a cool, modern look. It's compatible with 11-inch bins, and each cube can hold up to *15* pounds of stuff. It also isn't rocket science to put together, so setting it up won't feel like extra homework.

This faux leather pouf will totally bring some pizazz to their plain dorm room, and I wouldn't blame you if you snagged one for yourself, too. One reviewer says, "I love this pouf so much I ordered another one...These are quality made, nice form, solid stitching and [the] perfect size for every living room." Just so you know, the plush cube—which doubles as decor and an extra seat—clocks in at 18 inches wide and deep, so they weren't kidding when they said it's the perfect size for any space—college dorms and all.

Ah, the dreaded communal shower. Perhaps one of the worst parts of the dorming experience can be made all the more bearable by way of a good shower caddy—and this guy is one of the best. Thanks to a mesh design, it can dry quickly, so they don't have to worry about cleaning it off every day. More importantly, it has *tons* of pockets, so they can organize their bathroom essentials as they see fit and make sure to bring everything with them in one go. As if it couldn't get any better than that, it has two shoulder straps for easy carrying and hanging. TL;DR? This shower caddy checks all the boxes and then some.

If you want a high-quality mirror that won't break the bank, today is your lucky day! This super sleek option, set in a nice wood frame with a natural finish, comes highly recommended by hundreds of buyers who are obsessed with the clean and contemporary design, which will fool people into thinking you spent more than you actually did. "This mirror is such a lovely oversized piece. I had been trying and trying to find a rounded, full-length mirror when I stumbled upon this one. The price couldn’t be beat, and when it arrived, I discovered it was also a very high-quality piece. I’m thrilled!" one raves. And did I mention that the mirror is on sale for under $85? I told you today is your lucky day!

Perhaps your sofa is long overdue for an upgrade. Or maybe you just can't resist a really good furniture deal. Either way, you can't lose with this glam mid-century loveseat that'll elevate the look of *any* room, dorm or otherwise. It's more than equipped for all your Netflix binging this fall and beyond, featuring a curved backrest that is plush enough for you and your beau to sink into. And if you have an eye for design details, buyers say you'll appreciate the brown rubberwood legs that show off its impressive craftsmanship.
