My Setup: PC i7-4770 32G RAM/ Nvidia GTX780 / Win7 / Oculus Rift Touch
I'm standing but only have 1,5m² of room around.
I've made a sensor reset with a height that is slightly lower than I am.
Now it's ok to grab things on the floor (in any app, btw, so it's related to oculus setup)

Now it looks like the stating point is ok with your default setup.
Since I've added a 4 USB3-PCI card, tracking is more stable.
Your VR experience is better and I did not get the objects jumping off and disappearing anymore.
So it was my side gear setup issue.

When starting the VR app, just mention to stand 1 m away from sensors so we can go forward to grab the plug.
For the teleport, sometimes it's difficult to get to close to specific spot because there is an object on the way (like being close to the table to use the writing machine because the chair is on the way).  Maybe, allow to teleport into the chair space anyway (like if we would be sitting on it)!

What I LOVE the most: 

being transported (headphones on) to discover another world with another totally different mood + being surprised by something odd but amazing (the titan ship crossing  by your backyard. That genius & impressive!

So I wood suggest you to create other new totally different worlds & moods to discover and being surprised by something that only VR experience can make it possible to live. (I want to discover your upcoming mysterious forest for example).
Or being in space, underwater, in between atoms & molecules, flying around magic world, whatever fantastic world you could imagine

yes, having the power of telekinesis on giant rocks or a spaceship (the force be with you)  or whatever is huge!

Because you can feel quickly lonely and bored after playing with all the things around you can, being transported to other worlds is key to keep us interested in the VR app, and the next step would be to solve something with things you brought from other worlds and trigger something outstanding. You could also invite people activate special pots in the different world so it creates connections between them and activate different features in the connected worlds.

Can you imagine what fun and interesting play it will be when your app is on  Spaces so we can be a lot of people playing around yours world and cooperate to achieve great outstanding & amazing things?
I believe in what your are doing here, to its great potential to make us feel unknown fantastic worlds.

PS: Something everybody should try is to stand up on the road, wait until a car/truck is approaching and let yourself being hit by it, then you feel a quick fear, maybe being death for a second and the joy of being still alive (or a ghost!)
That's something you could get great ideas to make people live high emotion VR experience.

Eager to have an update with one or 2 of these ideas ;)

Thanks so much!

Glad to hear what parts are fixed with a re-calibration, 'cause they would've been the hardest problems to fix on my side : ).

As for your suggestions: seems you have a very keen sense of where I want to take this ; ). Not making any promises, but for a slight spoiler check this. Yes, there should be more phantasmical outings! They should tie up with the sense of the place though, so I'm ony slowly discovering them. 

As far as telekynesis is concerned: I meant it more like a solution to hard-to-reach objects (for people playing seated, for example): that you can pick up objects outside of your reach somehow, maybe manipulate them from a distance. It should happen without breaking the groundedness of the world though, so I'm still puzzling with it. 

Thank you! Very helpful this!
