90 degree stairs suck though... I have an appliance dolly that I had to abandon halfway up the stairs cause I couldn't rotate it on the landing. I thought I was going to have to move the washing machine out of the laundry room to fit the dryer first, but taking laundry room door off the hinges wound up be significantly easier. Now I get to go back to the office all sweaty and nasty

( Click to show/hide )
Got the old one downstairs and the new one unloaded from the car


Here's the landing where the stairs turn, which is about the size of the box the dryer came in - oh and my helper, who was more hindrance than help


And here it is at the top of the stairs after having to abandon the appliance dolly


And final result installed
This is another reason why stairs suck.

Also, why have that equipment up stairs? I guess it's more convenient, but not when something breaks and you have to replace it!



I can't have a two-story house though, so I won't have to worry about that ever.

Laundry upstairs is fantastic. I'd rather deal with it once every so often, than have to drag the laundry up and down the stairs on a regular basis. Plus, if it was really a big deal to exchange them, I could have had free delivery, installation and removal of the old dryer - it just would have been more inconvenient to have to meet them on their schedule. Luckily, my dad is out of town, so I was able to borrow his Rav4 to get the dryer home. I've already rerun the laundry that got interrupted last night and transferred it to the new dryer

I guess that's true.



Here I am thinking that if this happened I would actually do any of the work myself.

I'm a weak bitch (and lazy). I'll have their guys do it.
