- suceress4 years agoRising AceI had a thread a long time ago about laundry options. Some of the image links are now broken, but this is the thread. Can't reply to it w/o breaking necroposting rules though: https://forums.thesims.com/en_us/discussion/226129/more-laundry-washer-dryer-options
I'd like to see those all-in-one machines where the dryer is connected to the washing machine (not just stacked). Top load washer, front-load dryer combo.

They also make them both front-load

A funny idea is a washing machine on top of the toilet. The water from it is used to flush the toilet.

My biggest request is laundry machine pedestals. This is a stock image of my IRL set.

Ironing boards that fold down from the wall would be cool. I really wish the original laundry pack had included more stuff. We need more hampers, methods of drying, styles of washers, etc.
A laundromat would be nice. Or a communal laundry room in an apartment complex.
In the past other people suggested manual wringers for clothes. That would be neat. - FriendlySimmers4 years agoSeasoned Acepic of wringer washer and thank you for the adition @Suceress https://i.imgur.com/WdwiEtv.jpg
- suceress4 years agoRising AceGlad you found the ringer pic. I remember someone in my thread mentioning getting her arm stuck in a wringer. I could see that happening to sims. An electric wringer for an older setting or a hand-crank one for off-grid would be nice.
Some regular laundry baskets would also be good.
I had to find a sketchup model for the style we have (although they are starting to break after 30+ years)

These kinds are also good

Obviously they come in a variety of colors but I just grabbed the first images I could find.
While wicker ones look cool, they are terrible for clothes bc they snag everything. As a kid I had a wicker laundry basket with a panther head (woven out of wicker).
A washing machine box (for water supply and drain) that could cut into the wall would be neat.

- Briana25264 years agoSeasoned AceI would like more washer and dryer options. Even have one that's portable. Ironing or Steaming the wrinkles away would be good. I would also like fragrances dryer sheets to put in the dryer to smell even more.
- FriendlySimmers4 years agoSeasoned Acelike this style @Briana2425 that you can roll to the kitchen sink https://i.imgur.com/2QfMVdR.jpg youtube vid show a big exemple https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s18W9emj358&t=2s edit adding dryer sheet pic https://i.imgur.com/gakpEpR.jpg
- suceress4 years agoRising AceWell, yellow baskets would be easy to see. LOL.
I wish I could find baskets with lids in my area. I'm constantly having to dump my cats out of the baskets.
Portable machines would be nice. I know they have smaller electric washers as well. Dryer vents and such for the exterior of houses would also be cool.

A folding table (one that literally folds down or up from the wall) for folding clothes would be nice. I guess one might call it a murphy table.
The little fabric softener container balls for washers and the wool balls for dryers would be nice as well.

https://www.fairtradewinds.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Felt-Wool-Dryer-Balls.jpg - crocobaura4 years agoLegendI would like an option for sims to be able to wash their clothes in the sink or bathtub, or even the shower.
- suceress4 years agoRising Ace@crocobaura I like that idea. For the longest time I had to wash my laundry in the sink because there was a problem with water supply for the washing machine. And sometimes its small items that don't warrant going in the machine. Or that are hand-wash only.

@Suceress what do you think of sims acutualy loading the washer when picking up clothes from the hamper and sorting it like for exemple light colors white and dark colors and then starting the washer on what isi being wash youtube videos as exemple https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDGtj1nf4EY video exemple of actualy loading a washer not just putting a bag of dirty clothes then when load done sims have 3 options dry in the dryer line dry outside if sunny on a clothe line like this https://i.imgur.com/v3cQeiK.jpg if raining if player owns season pull out the clothes rack https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0dbIByT-X4
