Bossy, I rent my house out. When tenants are here, my electrical bill absolutely skyrockets. It goes from @ $24 in, say, june, to $195 (and now more since I've installed central AC) in July and August, and it is mostly the dryer. I hang my laundry to dry in the summer and NEVER use the dryer, whereas I swear tenants start doing laundry the day they arrive and never stop. I've come to believe, in fact, that they dry one item at a time. It's a huge issue for we homeowners who rent our houses out, esp. since electricity is SO expensive on Cape Cod (second highest in the country, next to Hawaii). I can assure you, conservation is NOT on the minds of most, from my experience. And btw - sorry to stray a bit here - but why does every piece of electronics and appliances now have a light ON when the dang thing is OFF? Nice to have your electric bill churning when nothing is even ON. This post was edited by Tibbrix on Wed, Nov 26, 14 at 11:35

I would do a round table 56” in diameter...would look great. or a 56” x76” rectangle you subtract 30” from both sides of table for room to pull out chairs and maneuver around the space...also from length.. so take the width of your room and subtract 60” and take length if your room and subtract 60” Room width....116-60=56” wide for table width room length....136-60=76” long for table length

first do get 2 couches. do not get sectional or a loveseat. first we have to figure your color preferences. black is a neutral, to an extent it tends to be really in your face. and it rarely is going to look cool. so lets see a couple new things i have seen. let me know what you think and what not, i will adjust.

Lianne, well, she never came back to check, so who knows what she got! If you look up SJ McCarthy, she's the flooring pro on here. you'll find her comments about how things hold up on numerous posts. If you find her profile, click on her activity, and see if you can find one where she talks about diff flooring. she talks a lot about diff LVP brands. or, start your own post, with a few pics, and ask for advice on flooring choices. If you have a few samples, post the pics of those and see if you get any hits However, reviews of this product on the first link aren't great! in fact, they're quite poor https://www.trustpilot.com/review/karndean.com https://floorcritics.com/karndean-vinyl-plank-review/
