Colour of washing machine and tumble dryer

    Very trivial question I was just thinking about. In the next few months I'll be looking at buying a new washing machine and separate tumble dryer. These will be going into a utility room as freestanding items, not integrated behind doors.

    I was just taking a quick look online to get an idea of how much these things cost, and I noticed that there's a lot of colour options since the last time I bought - white, black, silver and graphite being the most common.

    At the moment I'm thinking I'd just get white, as I may not be buying a matched pair, and white is easier to "match" than greys might be, for example.

    Is there any good reason to go for a different colour in a utility room? If you had different shades of machines, or entirely different colours side by side, would it bother you?

    Sounds like a 'First World Problem' if ever there was one.
    A grey washer would be harder to resell if ever needed.

    This chap has the right idea, a 'wash cycle'

    Or more aesthetically pleasing is this one:

    Sounds like the easiest.

    Absolutely - it's particularly trivial. I like the exercise bike idea!

    I've never resold white goods - I keep them for a million years until they just don't work any longer.
