    Talking My Laundry is now operational...

    If only it had big lasers. *ahem*

    Soooooo... I am a dork.

    I have had my condenser dryer and front loading washing machine for um 3 yrs now. I have had them sitting in my stupidly small laundry on the floor diagonally opposite in corners. This might sound fine but it has created a HUGE space issue (Hahahaha! Its late, I think I'm funny just play along.). Anyway so I was visiting my BIL at the country house he was staying at on the weekend and noticed they had their dryer washer combo stacked. Oh how novel I thought. Up until now I assumed one needed a stacking kit to do that. So I come home stack my dryer on my washer and OMG the amount of space I have is astounding. Not just that but I can actually open the washer door without my best acrobatic moves! WOOT. I'm actually excited about doing laundry. Is that so wrong???

    And before you all worry about falling dryers crushing innocent bystanders, it is entirely fixed and not budging

    YAY! Hurrah! (stack them on your loo and you won't see a thing?) Space in the laundry is fantastic! Well, I imagine anyway, I don't have any to speak of.

    How did you manage to stack them so they were safe?

    I did a super dooper crazy spin 1200 rpms or whatever it is, and its not budging. I don't know if its because our dryer is bigger or not as light as the non condenser dryers but its not budging. I have a friend giving me a mat, and I've been offered a stacking kit from another gf. I've done a LOT of reading, and the the two reasons they say a stacking kit is needed is if your washer goes unstable with big loads (never happened here) and if you have a little person who hangs off the door, its like 5 foot off the ground and I highly doubt it.

    So...let me get this straight...you can just plonk a dryer on top of a front loader? I thought you needed a bracket or something...
