Of course, they have your typical dorm room essentials, but some of the techie gadgets and portable electronics I would even buy. Check out my little suggestive list below.

You wouldn’t have to ask me twice about getting this tiny, portable, washing machine. It’s perfect for a college student who forgets to wash a few things, which they will.
It’s about 12 inches high and wide, and you fold it up when you’re done.

I own this drying rack, and did a video review here: Sagler Portable Drying Clothes Rack

These kids today take their phones into the shower, and this waterproof shower caddy has a slot for the phone, and it’s touchable. (I might get this for the next time I take a cruise).

Do kids even sit at their desks anymore? If not here’s a lap desk with phone holder, mouse pad, and air flow cushion so it stays cool.
DTK 3 Tier Utility Rolling Cart with Cover Board
For added small space storage, 3 tier rolling storage rack is worth looking at. It’s got a cover board on top, cup holders, side clips, and can hold up to 200 pounds.
