Just wonder, if your building has a laundry room for tenants, would the owner mind if you have/use your own washing machine in your apartment? (water, both cold and hot, are included in the rent)
If the unit does not have proper hook ups you can get a portable washing machine. Look at your lease and see if they specifically say no washers in your unit. I would not try to hook up a traditional washer and dryer without the proper hook ups. Talk about a flood and fire hazard.
the ll does not need a reason to say no to washing machines our reasons are leaks water use. but the ll just has to say no if they have a laundry room the more than likely the answer is no.
Ok, thanks for the input. Most likely giving up the idea. By the way, anyone familiar with this Haier 1-cubic-foot portable washer? That's what I had in mind, though it seems now there will still be issues re hooking and draining...
I would never use it while not home. If I had one, I'd disconnect everything after use...
There's no guarantee that everyone else would do that. Ask your LL.
