After spending September through January schlepping my laundry down a flight of stairs and across a parking lot to the Wymount laundry room, while carrying Mr. B no less, I am incredibly thankful/in love with my washer and dryer.
Although I occasionally miss being able to do 3 loads of laundry in 2 hours, I don't think that washing 3 loads in 3 hours from the comfort of my own is too shabby.
