So what don't you have at home that others would find essential ?
I don't have a dishwasher or a tumble dryer. We also only have 1 tv in the family room.

I don't own my house!
I don't have a car (or any other mode of transport, I don't even have a bike although my DCs do)

Dishwasher
Ironing board (I have an ironing blanket, but rarely iron anything)
No heated airer
No dehumidifier
Steam mop/steam cleaner (I've been told these are vital)

Coffee Machine.
A BBQ.

We don't have any pets.

Only got one TV.
No Alexa. I really, really hate the idea actually.
No Xbox/PlayStation though various handheld devices

Trampoline. My DC reckon we 'need' one though. Maybe in the summer!

I do have various computers and scanner, printer etc. But very little is actually working right now!

No tumble drier - only ever used one in holiday cottages, don’t care for them.

No Alexa or smart appliances

I think we have an iron but neither of us use it

No makeup at all, blow dryer, tumble drier and only 1 TV.

@Chewingle I lived out of the country so am not entitled. I plan to shuffle off to Dignatas when I am no longer able to work as there is no way I can support myself in retirement.

An engagement ring - I just have a wedding ring.

devildeepbluesea · 15/02/2021 20:03

No microwave, no toaster. Don't miss either.

I have a downstairs loo which I have never used. I keep my gym equipment in there. Soon I will get rid and put the washing machine in there. I life in a 60s 3-bed terrace box, I have no need of another loo to clean.

Akire · 15/02/2021 20:15

Never lived anywhere had enough room for a dishwasher or a tumble drier. I’m in my 40s. Quite scary there is a generation of adults that have never washed up by hand and wouldn’t know what to do with a washing up bowl. I’m just poor!

DBML · 15/02/2021 20:16

I don’t have (or want) a hot tub.

I also don’t have:
A slow cooker
