That the current laundry storage systems on the market are all a bit crap and inflexible?

Why can’t they sell a vertical laundry solution which enables me to sort the laundry into different washes, so that I can quickly put a load on? Or different colours? Why can’t it be modular and go upwards rather than have the big old laundry hampers which take up space?

Why can’t they be modular and the modules have wheels so that I can wheel around?

Kallax. One wide, four high. Different coloured boxes. Sort as you go. Full box = load of laundry.

that's pretty genius! Also resolves 3 current issues I have in my house in one move... I think I might have just fallen in love with you.

I started a game with DD when she was a toddler. She stands at top of stairs and throws the washing down while shouting 'Geronimo'. She still does this at age 10 but refuses to touch DHs pants.

Much more fun. I work full time long hours so only wash on friday nights and sat mornings.

love this! We have a house that this would work in. Need to make it more fun :D

My hisband built me a 4 square one similar to a Ikea Kalax but in solid wood, he then built 4 wood boxes/drawers with slatted fronts and simple circles ut out for handles. It sat at the bottom of the stairs for years until we emitgrated and sold it. It was good looking and very functional.

I may have accidentally invented the Portuguese version. We've just completed our wetroom, it has an electic radiator as a heat source and an airwall dehumidifier, heat recovery ventilation system, both wifi controlled. We also have a balcony outside the wetroom.We load the clothes airer and wheel it outside, then if it starts to rain or gets too humid, we wheel it back in, shut the wetroom door and turn on the fan plus the heating if necessary.
