Ha! That's nothing. I'm buying a washer/dryer pair, the new high
efficiency kind. They are amazing, all electronic controls. The dryer
is done drying the same time that the washer is done with it's load.
Uses less than 1/3 the water of the old washer, and the dryer saves
about 1/3 on electricity. The cost on the outset is kinda steep, but
pays for itself in 5 or 7 years. I'm installing them myself, but
there's more. When I put hardwood floors in the entire first floor, I
didn't do the laundry room. Now that I'll have the old washer/dryer
out, I figure I may as well do that, since I have the material. So, get
the old washer dryer out tonight, start the floor, figure I'll finish
the floor in the morning, off to pick up the new stuff, and install.

Be sure and invest in some stainless steel lines for the washer. You
wouldn't want to damage that floor.

Be sure to train your wife to shut off the water every time she's finished
washing also. That took me a little time, but now mine's got it down pat!

Of course, all this knowledge didn't come cheap, but we won't go there!
