    This is a can crusher. A Wesley crusher would crush Wesleys.

      Where is it typical for washing machines to be where you’re from? Based off of TV/movies, I’d guess in a dedicated laundry/utility room, but it seems implausible that most people have one of those.

      I can confirm that washing machine in the kitchen is standard in the UK; I can count on one hand the number of homes that I’ve seen where the washing machine wasn’t in the kitchen.

        a laundry room / closet is standard fare for a home in the USA

          Yeah, laundry room, sometimes with a separate “slop sink” for extra filthy things. A laundry closet with a stacked washer/dryer is far more common though, especially in rental apartments/flats.

          Pretty much true, but I’ve seen exceptions. At least in the Southwestern US, the smaller the home, the more likely it is the kitchen will be very near the laundry room.

          In both my childhood home (built 1997, one story) and my dad’s childhood home (trailer, built 1973), the “laundry room” was basically a hallway off the kitchen.

          The washer is never directly in the kitchen or under a countertop, though.

        In the us, historically a lot were in basements but for decades now they typically have laundry rooms.

      It feels weird, but I’m told that’s the norm outside the US. It kind of makes sense from a plumbing perspective.

    I just drop them off at any supermarket for recycling, and get 25ct per can.
