    So what? This is standard and it’s perfectly acceptable for the average homeowner. It sucks a million times worse to have to go to a laundromat, I’ve been there and done that.

      Having to share on-site laundry facilities with other residents is bad enough (especially with the BRAND NEW machines breaking down all the time). If I had to go hang out at a laundromat every couple weeks for hours, I’d be even more depressed…

        I used to just put in mine and leave. Nobody stole my clothes that I know of but I’m sure it happens on occasion.

          Probably depends how busy it is and the area. But yeah knowing my luck, my clothes would get thrown on the floor or something if I didn’t stay to watch it.

      Question from a European: Why does living in an apartment mean you have to go to a laundromat? Do apartments in the US not have washing machines?

        It’s a mix of some that do and some that don’t. Many apartment dwellers have a coin-operated laundry facility on the premises of the complex or nearby that they use if they don’t have washing machines in their apt.
