Trends: what women want in a condo

[Possegal]

I've also heard about people starting to put W/D in their master suites as well. Other than the noise, if you can deal with drainage and venting properly, this probably makes a certain amount of sense too. Totally eliminates the need to haul laundry up and down the stairs.

I have friends who have houses set up like that, and I sometimes really wish I had it as my laundry maybe wouldn't pile up in one location or another if those locations were closer. Then I remember 3 yrs ago when the hose to my washer ruptured while I was sleeping, and I'm glad that only one of the 3 floors were ruined by it. Pros and cons I suppose. I'd definitely do what my sister in law does if I had the W/D on the top floor, I'd shut the water off to the washer after every use.
