This is a suggestion/feedback specifically to do with Laundry Day Stuff and I have a few suggestions I would like to give in regards the laundry in the game.Firstly I was hoping it would be possible to give us an option in the games settings to disable/enable the laundry feature so that we can just have washers/dryer be a decorative thing in our games if we so wish. I've seen a lot of people open to the idea of this as well.Second is I would love it if there was any chance of reworking the washer and dryer machines to be able to go under the kitchen counters. Not only would this be great for space saving in smaller homes it is also a great way to allow for more accurate representation of people's home in some parts of the world. Here in the UK it is very common for our washer/dryers to go under kitchen counters.I hope you can take this into consideration and thank you!

@HenfordHenCoop Love this! I would use these items more if there were options of this nature!

Absolutely. All these things.Also, I'd be happy if they would just add decorative nonfunctional versions of the washer and dryer to the base game.

I would like it to be option for washers and dryer to be under the counter as well as the washer and dryer we have now. Also I would like an ironing board and a clothes steamer. Different types of Laundry Detergent like making different of Laundry Detergent and dryer sheets.

Great ideas from Hen. 👏👏In fact, I am currently making a "2 up/2 down" lot (lots of them in the UK) & I put a washer under a counter. The visual glitch was really annoying, so I scaled the washer down. I haven't play tested yet, hope it'll work. In any case, it's not a great look cause we see the counter/washer mixed. Thank you for looking into this Sims team 💚

Indeed I made a couple of small "rooms" that look like a washer /dryer stack, a while back. Both on the Gallery This fake washer/dryer is Perfect for people who want the look but don't have the pack or if you get sick of sims being slobs! One was base game only . https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/6436DC89C27A11EC83787A088609793C?category=rooms&searchtype=ea_origin_id&sortby=downloads&time=all&searchquery=elderjymm&max=50&maxis=false

Its also very common in Denmark with them under counters either in the kitchen or in a mudroom.

I would really love these 2 things.

They could also ad ad a laundry service (send laundry in mail get it back pristine)

@HenfordHenCoopI agree with all of these suggestions, plus I'd like to add options to maybe have not so many steps to do laundry. For example, in older editions of the game, sims didn't autonomously make the bed upon awakening, nor did they autonomously wash their hands after using the toilet. Bundling a few of the actions of laundry washing would be so helpful! Right now, I have sims adding USED clothes to the dryer if I am not directing them, lol. It's add clothes to [washing object], wash clothes. move clothes to [drying object], dry clothes (if machine), then choosing to put clothes away or to set them somewhere. I'm not sure how to best suggest bundling, though, since there are a few other options mixed in that might complicate things. Still, it's a handful! haha

@HenfordHenCoop Fantastic idea! Would love for a washing/drying machine. Had one when i lived in Ireland, right under a kitchen cabinet.

Totally love this idea, Hen. That would be amazing for in-game.
