      It feels weird, but I’m told that’s the norm outside the US. It kind of makes sense from a plumbing perspective.

      Where is it typical for washing machines to be where you’re from? Based off of TV/movies, I’d guess in a dedicated laundry/utility room, but it seems implausible that most people have one of those.

      I can confirm that washing machine in the kitchen is standard in the UK; I can count on one hand the number of homes that I’ve seen where the washing machine wasn’t in the kitchen.

          Yeah, laundry room, sometimes with a separate “slop sink” for extra filthy things. A laundry closet with a stacked washer/dryer is far more common though, especially in rental apartments/flats.
