I could live without a microwave but it makes life so much easier...hot milk without the dirty saucepan, warm up the cereals, defrosts the meat, makes lovely carrot cake, starts off baked spuds, melts the butter for cakes in seconds, makes lovely chocolate ganache.......
Having lived in one room for the past 2 months with virtually no gadgets I can categorically state the washing machine. My one foray out to wash some clothes and bedding cost me a lot of time and money. Launderettes are few and far and it doesn't help that when any close their websites still exist on the Internet.
