I don't think he ever got a definitive reason for the fire starting. I only saw the aftermath and it wasn't pretty. Plus I don't see how it's practical either.
Mine will be staying in the kitchen.
You want to wash dirty laundry in a food preparation area?! When you think about it that's just as bad!Mine will be staying in the kitchen.
Our washing machine was under a worktop and the socket was behind it. You couldn't have got water on the socket if you'd tried.
I remember going to see a big show house once, and it had a double cupboard in the upstairs hall with a washer and dryer. Above that was airing space for drying and storing ironing. That seemed ideal to me.

Agreed, in an ideal world a kitchen is a pretty poor place to put a washing machine.
That's pretty much the German attitude to it too. Which is why, if space permits, they'll generally have theirs in a basement or utility room. As a result, since they're not on show, German designed washing machine like Miele tend to be rather plain looking.When looking for our last house we had laundry on the bedroom level as a must have. The idea of having washing in the kitchen just makes me have a cold shiver. My last place had a cupboard the size of a stacking washer and dryer in between the bedrooms. It's no space to lose but so much easier
