Are you looking for ways to kill time when all alone at home? What can be better than games? Yeah, but we are not talking about your regular gaming. A Japanese company Bauhutte has developed a gaming bed for all the gamers out there [1].
Yes, this is the ultimate bed; all of us would want at this moment. You need not get out of your seat and can play all the time lying on the couch. The best part is you don’t even need to sit for long hours playing your favourite game.
The Innovative Bed
The bed was first noticed in the US by PC Gamer. The bed is still in the form of a concept and hasn’t been designed completely. Some separate parts of the gaming bed are available in the market. A Japanese company Bauhutte is manufacturing these parts.
While the concept has originally been designed for gaming, it can also be used by people working from home. This assumes importance in the wake of the current pandemic and the lockdown. The arrangement of the furniture is such that gamers can easily laze around while playing games all day. This is just the right kind of thing everyone needs right now when the world is in quarantine, and you have no other option but to stay indoors.
Bauhutte is a company that manufactures gaming furniture for hardcore gamers. The latest gaming bed is the most advanced one in their series of beds and accessories [2].
You won’t believe it, but this bed is almost everything a gamer would want from his desk or gaming arrangement. The cup holders, double monitors, and speakers included with this bed are all the necessary components needed in a gaming console.
The arrangement also has a retractable phone holder, which makes it easy for you to play games. Moreover, you won’t have to hold the phone in your hands while playing games. So, you are freed of the pain you go through in holding the phone in your hands.
There’s a snack cart along with the bed. You can keep all those snacks handy that you will need during the quarantine period. Be it those packs of Doritos or those bottles of cold drinks, and you can store a lot of snacks and other stuff in the snack cart [3].
The best part about the snack cart is its height. You don’t need to get up to get the snacks. You can grab them even while lying down on the bed. So, be prepared to have quick and efficient breaks while you eat your snacks. No need to waste any time.
There’s another cart that acts as a keyboard holder. This extra piece of the furniture will change the scene of gaming. If you combine both the wagons, you have enough space to keep your headphones or other essentials.
Additional Features of Gaming Beds
There’s a gaming blanket too. This isn’t any other normal blanket. It is specially designed for gamers who would want to laze around the entire day, doing some hardcore gaming.
There’s more to it. You also have an adjustable arm that holds the phone, tablet, or any other device you are playing on. You can look at it while lying comfortably in your bed and play games [4].
You can use the headboard on the carts to keep an alarm clock. This will prove to be useful for you when you need to get up or call someone or have some prior appointments.
The entire concept of gaming bed looks quite promising for gamers who want to dedicate their time to gaming without wasting it. They can now play from the comfort of their bed without the need to get out.
All the accessories discussed above are available for customers for $1200. This does not include the bed but includes the gaming blanket that comes along.
Bauhutte is known for manufacturing fantastic gaming furniture [5]. If you think this gaming bed is not in your budget, you can also choose to buy the gaming camp produced by the same company. It is a tent-like enclosure that you can use to cover your gaming desk. This gaming camp helps you minimize the distractions while minimising unnecessary visibility.
This is indeed a revolution in the gaming industry.
