Add To Cart: Love For Your Laundry Room
Your laundry room's primary purpose is for cleaning and productivity—and yet somehow it simultaneously acts like a magnet for clutter. (Looking at you, workout gear, sports equipment, and random stuff you can't logically put anywhere else.)
And since it's generally a smaller nook of your home, the laundry room usually lacks organic storage spots to stow away freshly washed clothes (or the things you find in the pockets of said freshly washed clothes). To that end, we selected nine products from The Home Depot that will make your laundry room as pristine as the garments that come out of there—and make doing laundry (dare we say it?) enjoyable.
You know what helps to ensure things just don't end up on the floor? Shelves—six shelves, to be exact. You can purchase two or three towers, and then add additional drawers to configure your space however you want it. Plus, the towers come in two sizes—25 inches and 16, so even if you'r working with a seriously tiny space, your clutter is covered.
Downy Ultra 129 oz. Clean Breeze Liquid Fabric Softener (150-Loads)
Cancel your random test washes and opt for Downy's liquid fabric softener. It helps fight static, reduces wrinkles, and smells downright heavenly, so maybe you can get away wearing something more than once or twice (maybe even three times, but don't push it).
The start of the laundry room is obviously the washing machine, and this one means business. It has a simple, sleek design so it won't clash with any of your decor goals while also meeting federal efficiency guidelines for energy and money savings. Plus, it features Smart Dispense, which holds enough detergent for up to 48 loads and auto-dispenses the right amount at the right time. In addition to the Smart Dispense, it has a Water Station inside with a faucet that dispenses water and detergent to pre-wash your clothes as well.
Tide 150oz. Clean Breeze HE Liquid Laundry Detergent (96-Loads)
Nobody really loves washing clothes, but using Tide detergent makes it less painful with its HE Turbo Clean technology that cuts your cleaning time down in half—while giving your clothes the best scrub ever. It will keep your clothes looking clean and smelling extra fresh (even if you washed them a week ago).
You can't have a fancy pants washer without its accompanying fancy pants dryer, right? In addition to meeting all the energy saving guidelines like its washing counterpart, it allows you to set your own preferred cycle settings and stores them for the next time—instead of relying on the default ones that take a century to dry your clothes.
