Just that really..

I'm trying to talk dh into buying a second washing machine because I just can't keep on top of it.

I'm doing 15-20 loads a week and have a 10kg machine. He says that it's plenty to big enough and that it's no problem when infact it's a massive problem because there's dirty washing constantly, and I've not seen the bottom of the laundry bin for about 2 years. There's 7 of us.

12kg and 2 tumble dryers

There are 5 of us - 3 small children. I do about 20 loads a week. Change sheets at least once a week. Wash some towels almost daily. Clean clothes and pyjamas every day so it all adds up.

8kg for 7 of us, 5 under 12. I haven’t seen the bottom of my wash basket for a year. I’m passed caring 😂

Don’t struggle on just get another washing machine. American washers and dryers have a very large capacity and are available in the UK. Why do you have to get him to agree if it will make your life easier.

Oh my lord I could piss myself with excitement 😁
