Make Laundry More Enjoyable
Did you know that the chore of doing laundry can be made easier with a few design updates? Whirlpool Appliances’ designers say the optimal laundry room has four zones — prep area, wash and dry centre, folding counter and finishing centre. Key elements can include: 1. Pedestals under the washer and dryer to raise the machines to optimal height 2. Washer and dryer doors that open in the right direction for easy item transfer 3. Separate baskets for sorting freshly laundered clothes. 4. Proper lighting. 5. Soft flooring for standing comfortably. 6. Art, music and an appealing wall colour.
