[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 656672, member: 1963"] Top load, so it's an "apartment-sized" unit. It definitely is smaller than what I have now. I can't tell how much smaller from the video. It's not really that big a deal. I got in the habit of doing laundry weekly from years of going on base, or to the Laundromat to do my laundry, and just kept that up once I had my own washer/dryer. It's not a big deal if I have to do laundry a bit more frequently. The only thing I'll have to get used to is not doing laundry at 3 AM because I happen to be up. According to the leasing manager who took my BFFs on the tour, the place is very soundproofed, but somehow, I don't think my across the hall or upstairs neighbors are gonna appreciate spin cycle at that hour of the AM, especially if something goes out of balance, and I suspect that the stacked unit will be noisier in general than the side-by-side that I have now. My friends went during business hours because they needed to catch the office when it was open, so I don't know how noisy the place is at night. They did say there were quite a few children running around outside and the place does have a few play areas for the kids, as well as a pool and a fitness center. I plan on making use of both of those. I am a strong swimmer, though very out of shape, and swimming is one of the very few aerobic exercises I can still do with the severity of my arthritis. The fitness room really depends on what sort of equipment they have. I can use an elliptical and a treadmill/recumbent bike, but that's about it. The worst of all of this is gonna be having to buy a bathing suit *GAK*. Oh...I got a call back from the leasing office a short while ago. They ask ages, gender, names, breed and weight of pets. Apparently, they couldn't make out my dysgraphic handwriting which described Thomas' breed, but were able to read his weight. They called me back to make sure he wasn't an "exotic" which aren't allowed. *sigh*...no. Nothing exotic about him. He's just a little Maine Coon Cat. [/QUOTE]
