We have kids. Having kids comes with having lots of laundry. Our washing machine runs nearly every day. God forbid if we’d forget to hang out a single load of laundry. The pile would stack up indefinitely…\nWe can’t handle that much pressure! That’s why Home Assistant has to help us.\nThe Problem A common situation we were facing is the following:\nWe started the washing machine with a big load of kids-laundry in the evening. We went right to the couch and watched some Netflix. We went to sleep. We woke up the next morning with the instant knowledge that we forgot the laundry in the washing machine. The laundry stinks due to lying around wet in the drum all night We have to wash that load again The next kids-laundry-load stacks up the pile. That happened way too often. That’s why I decided to make my laundry smart!\n
