One of them said that the washing machines and dryers are great socializers, and some people use them for this reason even though they have machines at home. They also get used when the ones at home are broken. Another advantage is that dining room, kitchen and guest room linens don't have to be dragged to someone's house. We're putting a laundry room in the basement, near the areas that will eventually be for crafts and exercise. Some folks won't have laundry machines at home and will obviously be using them. Not too many downsides that I've heard of. Maybe financial (coin-op or honor system?) and maintenance, but I sure those get worked out. I'd also be curious to know of any other ad- or disadvantages. -Roger
