They exist in Canada as well. They’re actually a great idea. You happen to be dirty? Don’t want to traipse that dirt through a clean house? Just take off your dirty clothes right there and throw them directly into the washing machine.
Also means you have a dedicated laundry room, instead of the insanity I see sometimes where it’s in the kitchen, or a bathroom, or the basement, or just hanging out in the hallway behind a door.
Absolutely disgusting to have laundry in the kitchen like in England but the bathroom is totally normal here. Like 90% of all houses here have the washer and dryer in the bathroom.
Dirt in the house isn’t a problem. I’m confident 100% of the population here don’t wear shoes inside the house
