LanguageWhen it comes to figuring out your laundry set-up, the typical option is a freestanding machine placed anywhere that offers both utility connections and available space.
However, a more contemporary choice is to house washing machines and dryers within built-in cabinets instead.
As one of the most commonly performed chores, it’s important to consider what will offer you ease of use while performing your laundry. Plus in terms of aesthetics, a built-in washing machine and dryer cupboard can also create a more organised and stylish space.
If you’re considering a renovation of your laundry room, here are 5 advantages of installing a built-in cabinet for a washing machine and a dryer to inspire your project.
Looks aren’t everything. But let’s be honest, washing machines and dryers don’t always have that sleek, swanky appeal of other household appliances. In particular, vacuum cleaners have become ultra stylish in recent years having been totally redesigned from bulky to bagless and now even cordless!
In contrast, laundry appliances are big and bulky, because in order to accommodate heavy loads of clothes they have to be. Although the design of washing machines and dryers isn’t set to change anytime soon, one thing you can do to improve their appearance is placing your machines in a built-in cabinet.
Doing so instantly elevates the look of your whole home, and can be just as appealing to potential buyers if you’re putting your home on the market anytime soon.
Washtower laundry cabinets are also available in black or white, meaning whether you own a white or black washing machine you can coordinate the look of your built-in cabinets perfectly. In addition, our cabinets are flexible for various rooms including the kitchen, bathroom or utility room.
Research by Good Maker Tales found that the average person completes anywhere up to 150 loads of laundry per year. Therefore, comfort and ease of use can never be underestimated within your laundry setup.
Various types of built-in washing machine and dryer cabinets can provide ease of use. For instance, allowing the washing machine and dryer to be stackable so that you can easily place wet laundry into the dryer. Extra space can also be provided to house detergents or an ironing board adjacent to the machine.
Compared with a stand-alone machine that just has to ‘fit in’ whenever there is space in your kitchen, utility room or bathroom, a built-in washing machine or tumble dryer cupboard can make laundry a lot easier, not to mention more enjoyable.
Built-in laundry cabinets are available in a range of sizes and configurations. So whether you have a small room, an awkwardly shaped room or even a grand space, there is always an option to suit.
For instance, in a stacking washing machine and dryer format, this allows you to place your machines in a tall cupboard to make the best use of the vertical space. This means that when there isn't room for a side-by-side format, a built-in washing machine cabinet can also include room for a dryer on top, so that you don’t have to miss out.
Ever tried to concentrate, let alone enjoy a peaceful cup of tea with the sound of the washing machine rattling away in the background?
Placing your washing machine in a dedicated washing machine cupboard can help solve this problem. This is especially the case with a Washtower cabinet, as our laundry cabinets have anti-vibration properties that help reduce machine noise.
In contrast, if you place a freestanding washing machine in your home without being housed in a built-in cabinet, there is nothing to at least dampen the noise leaving the sound free to travel throughout your home.
Sometimes it helps to see what something could look like in your home before you buy it. This is where the Washtower online configuration tool comes in!
