We have finally reached the point where we no longer have enough space to dry our clothes indoors, and will need to invest in a dryer.

We have a washing machine in our bathroom (also small) so the dryer would ideally go under/over that.

Does anyone have experience building or buying an appropriate stand? The dryer and washing machine will likely weigh about 50-60kgs each.

Do you have the connections to run a dryer in your bathroom? In the US, you'd need 240v electric or a gas supply which aren't commonly found in a bathroom. Also an exterior vent.

I suggest a combo washer/dryer which runs on 120v and uses a heat pump for drying. They are quite expensive in comparison to just a dryer, but can be used anywhere you have water and a drain and the total cost would likely be less than having 240v run to the bathroom.

Or maybe you live somewhere where this isn't so, in which case disregard this.

EU based, but thanks for the message either way!
