![]() Both had its merits for sure but if space is a consideration stacked is wonderful! We lived in a 640 sq foot condo in the city and had stacked as there was no other choice and it functioned really well. OMG Sarah I have some real laundry room envy going on right now as our laundry room is unfinished which kind of makes doing laundry a bummer! This is a great topic of discussion and so many considerations, I personally would just settle for a finished space, however, I’ve had both stacked and side by side. This should be fun and interesting to dissect! Who knows… maybe I can be persuaded to install side-by-side units when it comes time to fully renovate our laundry room (but I doubt it, haha). There is no right or wrong answer / preference to this design discussion, but I’d love to know where you stand and why! Vote using the above poll and be sure to leave a comment explaining your reasoning. I’ve never had an issue with reaching the buttons, mold, mildew, or stinky front loading units, but I try to run the cleaning cycle as directed. I guess I just prefer the aesthetic and functionality of a compact appliance “column”. I also like the space saving look of a stacked washer & dryer that makes room for other features. Why? Mostly because I hate bending down to use side-by-side units and I think pedestals are kind of ugly (they also make having a countertop or folding surface too high).

Ok- now that you’re all caught up on that… I can say I’ve lived with both stacked units and side-by-side units for a solid amount of time. Knowing we will eventually fully demo and renovate this space, it was easier to roll with the existing setup for now. ![]() Haha! When moving into this house, that’s how the washer & dryer hookups were installed. In our current home, our laundry units live side-by-side… and no- it’s not because of the flack I received for our previous laundry room. I was honestly pretty surprised, but I figured if that many people are passionate about this topic, it would make a great design discussion post. Never in my blogging history, have I received so much negative feedback or criticism than in that specific scenario / reveal. I’ll start by saying, when I shared my laundry room reveal at our previous house (pictured above), I received SO many negative comments about our stacked washer and dryer. Click through to read my thoughts and weigh in with your own opinion. Some people love them (hello space savers!) and some people hate them. On the docket today? I’m chatting stacked laundry units. It has been a fun blog week, so I figure we should keep the momentum going! Ready for another controversial design discussion?
