I lived for years in Paris. Dryer don’t exists there. You just don’t have space for one … Is the weather THAT different in London ?

Do you not have space for a washing machine either? In many apartments in the US the dryer is stacked on top of the washing machine. It doesn't consume any additional space.

I can't speak for Paris, but often in UK apartments the washing machine will be in the kitchen under the counter, so above them is counter-space.

Yeah I actually have one like that in my US flat.

It would not have fit in my first Parisian flat. ( to be fair… nothing was really fitting there )

Also when you rent a unfurnished place in France it’s empty-empty.

There is no frige/oven/washer/drier combo like in a US non-furnish rental.

In my personal case I saw a drier as yet another anoying piece of furniture I would have to deal with when moving

Dublin is pretty similar culturally and climate-wise to London.

People use combo washer-dryers.

The washing machine is in the kitchen? Where's the dishwasher supposed to go then? In the US under the kitchen counter is where the dishwasher sits.

In a large enough kitchen you have both!

In a smaller kitchen it’s more likely that the dishwasher will be sacrificed than the washing machine (since it can be replaced with a sink)
