ᐅ Installing a laundry chute in the shower?

In our case, no. Built it ourselves; the elevator is also used for firewood and all kinds of items that need to be taken up to the attic (there is no basement). It could even be used later as a replacement for a stairlift.

Built it yourself? That sounds interesting.
(In one of the properties my employer helps manage, there is a dumbwaiter that’s used once in a blue moon, and the maintenance and service costs are almost 800 euros per year. I’d rather pay myself to carry the laundry—or have my kid do it 😀 )

So what is it exactly now? 😳

Well, both. I often thought, “Damn, I have to go downstairs to get the laundry out of the machine.” Then I either went down to get it or postponed it until the next opportunity. At those times, I wished I could do the laundry upstairs.
But every time I walked downstairs, I felt it was actually good for me to make the effort for daily tasks. I noticed that even the short exertion of going down four floors did me physical good. It’s like going for a jog. You often don’t feel like it, but it’s actually beneficial.

I even go as far as trying not to make everything too convenient. Somehow that helps me organize my daily life in a more hands-on way than if everything happens too quickly.

Yes, a few steps are definitely a blessing in times of home office. Just imagining having all the noise and laundry upstairs would be a nightmare.

I always think of the people from the movie Wall-E 😀

Me too 😀! How they become lazy and overweight there, without any exercise and just consuming junk food. Some people are already heading in that direction 😎

And where is the plan for the bathroom and the upper floor?
