2015-07-27 Added a fourth version. I researched autonomy and realized the object does not need to give fun to advertise fun. This version is autonomous, but Sims do not gain any motives. It uses the same GUID as "RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotivesNEWGUID.zip". It is an alternative to that version, but that has the fun removed as well. Only use one.
Did you know that Rebecah made a functional washer and dryer, which can be downloaded here? Well, if you didn't, now you do! They are fantastic, but I've always found it a little strange that they give fun, and max out hygiene/comfort. When I do laundry, my fun, hygiene and comfort do not max. More like tank!
So, for my own use I edited the code and removed motive gain. Sims gain cleaning skill, but that's it. Rebecah's policy is very generous and allows her work to be reused, so I decided to share my edits for others who also find it unrealistic that Sims gain fun, hygiene and comfort.
iCad made an edited version that adds autonomy, so that Sims will use them autonomously which is great if you want to build a laundromat and have townies do laundry too. Her policy is also very generous, and allows her work to be edited, so I decided to also edit her autonomous version for those who want autonomy.
What is this?
These are modifications of Rebecah's functional washing machine and dryer. The mesh, the recolors and all the work making this functional was done by Rebecah. Go give her some love and thank one of her uploads here on MTS, she has made so many great contributions to the community and deserves all the love and more.
You should also give some love to iCad who added autonomy to these and giving us the option of running a laundromat. Why not go thank one of her creations here on MTS as well?

I have made four versions to choose from. All of them are available on residential and community lots.
RebecahWasherDryerGummiluttNoMotives.zip
- No fun, hygiene or comfort
- Not autonomous
- Sims gain cleaning skill
- Same guid as Rebecahs originals. Will conflict with rebecah's originals and iCads autonomous version. Only use one of them.
- Recolors of the washer/dryer will work for this (see iCad's recolors here)
Full credit to rebecah for creating the actual washer/dryer. I have merely changed the BHAV controlling motive gain.
RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotives.zip
- Autonomous
- No hygiene or comfort
- Sims gain fun (required for autonomy to work)
- Sims gain cleaning skill
- Same guid as Rebecahs originals. Will conflict with rebecah's originals and iCads autonomous version. Only use one of them.
- Recolors of the washer/dryer will work for this (see iCad's recolors here)
Full credit to rebecah for creating the actual washer/dryer, and to iCad for making it autonomous. I have merely changed the BHAV controlling motive gain.
For more information about the autonomy-aspect, see iCads original thread here.
RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotivesNEWGUID.zip
- Autonomous
- No hygiene or comfort
- Sims gain fun (required for autonomy to work)
- Sims gain cleaning skill
- New guid. Will not conflict with rebecah's originals, iCads autonomy version, or my no motive version.
- Will not work with recolors of rebecahs original washer/dryer. I have included updated versions iCads recolors (see originals here). Full credit to iCad for creating the recolors, I have just made them work with this version of the washer/dryer.
I created this version because the autonomy is based on these objects giving fun, which means that a visitor may choose to use the washer/dryer in your Sims house if they are low on fun. I want them to be autonomous on community lots and in communal areas of apartments, but not in Sims homes. I also don't want my Sims to gain fun from laundry. The new guid means I can use both my no motive version in Sims homes, and the autonomous version on community lots/apartments.
Full credit to rebecah for creating the actual washer/dryer, and to iCad for making it autonomous and the recolors I converted. I have merely changed the BHAV controlling motive gain, and given it a new guid so that it can be used with the other versions.
RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotivesWhatsoeverNEWGUID.zip
- Autonomous
- No motive gain. Advertises fun to Sims so that they use it autonomously, but it does not give fun.
- Sims gain cleaning skill
- New guid. Will not conflict with rebecah's originals, iCads autonomy version, or my no motive version. NOTE! Does conflict with RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotivesNEWGUID (the one above). Only use one of them.
- Will not work with recolors of rebecahs original washer/dryer. I have included updated versions iCads recolors (see originals here). Full credit to iCad for creating the recolors, I have just made them work with this version of the washer/dryer.
I created this version to replace "RebecahWasherDryer-iCadAutonomy-GummiluttNoMotivesNEWGUID" because I do not want my Sims to gain fun, but I'd like to have autonomous use for community lots and apartment buildings. The new guid is so that I can use a non-autonomous version in residential lots, to prevent visitors from using it when low on fun, and this version for community lots and apartments.
Full credit to rebecah for creating the actual washer/dryer, and to iCad for making it autonomous and the recolors I converted. I have merely changed the BHAV controlling motive gain, and given it a new guid so that it can be used with the other versions. Thanks to AnoeskaB on TSR for autonomy-tutorial, and to iCad for linking it.
Do you want Sims to gain fun, hygiene and comfort?
If you want the washer/dryer to be autonomous, then download iCads version. If you don't want it to be autonomous, download rebecah's original version
Thanks to
Rebecah for her awesome creations, and for the generous policy allowing me to do this.
iCad for her excellent addition of autonomy to these, and for the generous policy allowing me to user her edit.
Polygon Counts:
Dryer - 1737
Washing machine - 2022
Additional Credits:
rebecah for creating the washer and dryer found here
iCad for her autonomous versions found here
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

About Me
--- No longer sharing content on MTS ---
I hope to return one day but for now consider me retired, and my uploads unsupported. I still share things sometimes on tumblr and I chat on discord servers, but I do not promise support for things I've shared as I don't know when or if I'm around and whether or not I'll have the ability and energy to do something if I am around.
If you ever downloaded something of mine, thank you! It's a great feeling seeing something you spent time on be useful to someone else in their game, and with all the great CC out there I'm very flattered you would choose to get something of mine.
I do not take requests. I do sometimes make things for people, but only when I see someone wishing for something on the forums and I feel like making it for them. So if you have a mod you wish would exist, make a post in Hacks and CC that you'd like to see!-thread. That's what it's there for after all! :)
A shoutout to VioletPadfoot for inspiring me to try creating, long ago. You gave me the nudge that got me started, and I'm very grateful. I'd also like to thank all of the wonderful experienced creators (gdayars, justJones, maybesomethingdunno, NixNivis, whoward69, HugeLunatic and many more) out there that wrote the tutorials I've used, or that has answered my questions when I've gotten stuck. You guys are what makes learning fun, and what inspires me to keep expanding my knowledge with new projects. Special thanks to Michelle who has helped me a lot when it comes to objects and recolors, and BoilingOil who taught me some modding basics that I needed when I started modding more seriously.
Policy
My policy is now open. I'd appreciate a message telling me about your work, because it's fun for me to see, and it means I know about it and can refer others to it if they reach out. As much as I would like to provide support for my own work, my health is too unstable and I have to prioritize. So if anyone else would like to fix problems or continue something and share it with others, that's great go forth :) If you can learn from my work or improve on it, wonderful. Welcome to ask questions on crafters, if I can I'll answer.
I'd appreciate if people do not share default replacements from my stuff as I do not like default replacements, but I can't stop you anyway so no point in acting like I could. If you want to respect my wishes, I appreciate it, if you don't care then well nothing I can do about it.
Other sites
Only share content on tumblr now. Still retired though so probably nothing, but if something new comes out, that's where it'll be. You can find it linked here on my profile.
