If you're moving into a new apartment, you may be mulling over the decision of getting in-unit laundry. This is a decision that many struggle with, and there are pros and cons no matter what choice you make. Here are some things to consider when making this decision yourself:
The Pros
Here are a few of the pros of having an in-unit washer and dryer:
- It can be very convenient to have your own washer and dryer in your home. You won't have to go to a laundromat or use the laundry room at your apartment community, saving you time.
- In-unit laundry gives you more control over your laundry routine and provides the freedom of using whatever laundry detergent, stain remover, and fabric softener that you desire.
- If you value your privacy, in-unit laundry is great to have. You will never need to go out in public to do your laundry and can avoid other people accidentally looking through your clothes or taking them home.
The Cons
Here are some cons of in-unit laundry to consider:
- Having an in-unit washer and dryer can increase your utility bills because you will be using more water and electricity.
- Purchasing a washer and dryer and having them installed can be expensive and time consuming. You will also be responsible for maintenance and repairs of in-unit laundry machines.
- In-unit laundry can take up space in your apartment that could be used in other ways.
