I made the plunge into fairly strong adulthood by doing some serious appliance shopping. I got tired of the very crappy washer that came with the new place and decided that the latest banging and leaking of the old POS meant i needed to get some real hardware to handle my soiled linens. Ok, so not that soiled but they get grungy.

Stopped at Lowes on Tuesday night after researching what i wanted and left with the Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer. They both have the steam option and all that associated goodness.

Yeah, I got the pedestals as well but there’s not a countery-thing on the top. storage below is nice and there are many more options for how to clean my clothes than i really thought were necessary. But they do the NSF sterilization so i’m curious as to whether i can put glassware in there on the steam shelf and sterilize my brewing equipment… heh.

I’m actually looking forward to going home and doing laundry. Mom would be so proud!
