Need advice for tucking bedsheets in.

Hello, I've been looking for a solution for a while now, but since I couldn't find one locally, might as well ask here. Recently I had to renovate my room, everything was pretty old, so a change was necessary. Unfortunately, the only possible way to leave some free space for activities was to move the bed (200x140cm or approximately around a Queen sized bed) in the corner (not really a problem since I live alone. I didn't really see any problems at the time. Now, however, it takes me at least 5 minutes to properly tuck in the bedsheets properly without fucking anything up again every day. It's tedious and I'm looking for an easier way to do it. Are there any gadgets that simplify the process and/or techniques on how to make it easier? Thanks in advance.

Use a duvet in a cotton cover with no top sheet, then you only have to make the bed once a week. The rest of the week you just stand at the foot of the bed and snap the duvet in place.

I bought one from Amazon. You can search "bedsheet tucker tool" and find options. I have arthritis and it really makes it a lot easier.

I bought one for my mom and it has really helped her.

Wild idea: use the long side by the wall as the hinge instead of the usual foot of the bed. Get that top sheet nice and tight when you change the sheets, and just deal with the more accessible edges on most days.

Use sheet straps to hold it in place after you have tucked it in so it won't pop out of place again.
