I just ordered a dryer that may have to go on top of my dishwasher which is on top of my washing machine - hard to explain why except to say there was no good place for the ~~washing machine~~ dishwasher in the kitchen.
If that happens, I'll be able to reach the clothes, but the control panel will be a bit of a stretch. In that case wifi control could be clutch.
Edit: my brain can never sort those two out.
Also I understand this is not the intended use case, I just think it's funny.
I’m so curious about your kitchen setup
There's no dedicated spot for a dishwasher under any of the benches, and to get a hose out from the sink would need holes drilled that I'm not prepared to do because it's a rental. Also, all the wall area is spoken for, and there are doors immediately next to the kitchen on both sides. One of those doors is the laundry, so I just stuck it in there. It's a small laundry though, so there's no space side by side for anything. If the triple stack doesn't work, the dryer can go on the opposite side of the kitchen under or over my small freezer, since it doesn't need water. That's where my dishwasher would've gone if not for the hoses that would've needed to go across the floor.
If you're putting in a dishwasher just drill the holes. Your landlord will thank you for saving them the trouble of having to do that themselves some day.
I don't think any normal landlord would give two shits about some dishwasher-hose-sized holes drilled under a sink, between internal cabinet walls, that no one will ever see. Such holes are so far back and out of the way... No one would ever notice unless they're missing.
Those aren't the holes I'm talking about, I would drill those in a second. I've done it before.
There's enough information in my post to explain why it's not as simple as you seem to think, plus the other issues with doing it this way, and I can unpack it for you, but I'd need you to tell me you were interested in the information first.
im with this guy, vandalize the apartment to a better condition than you left it.
