[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're considering the same thing, so these comments are making me nervous.  However, moving the laundry room makes sense for our family.

Our laundry is off our kitchen and connected to the garage.  We want to turn that small room into a mudroom.  We'll be able to leave bags, coats, shoes, etc. in there instead of everything spilling into the kitchen.

The laundry space in the basement will be larger, so we'll have room for a drying rack and more storage.

I like the idea of having it on the second floor, but in addition to leaks we also worry about vibration and noise.  I think it could be kind of a nuisance near the bedrooms.[/quote]

Surely you can just keep it in your mudroom? Add hooks and shelves? I’ve had basement laundry and upstairs laundry, and upstairs is a massive upgrade. Vibration, noise and leaks truly aren’t an issue. We have ours in a room off our bedroom and it’s super convenient.

Carrying stuff in the stairs is not great as you age. [/quote]
