I can hear that sucker beeping anywhere

You can make them quieter or even silent these days with the "signal cycle" or similar setting, a legitimate thing I want to do but mine don't tell me when they're done so I leave them loud.

what's the big advanta of knowing exactly when the cycle finishes?

Even when on my Adderall I forget I set it all the time and wind up with smelly wet clothes too often. Also would be nice to get an alert if my wife set it without telling me, then I can easily swap it out if I'm not doing anything and she is.

I want a washer/dryer with these features now goddamnit

Yes we could make them quieter... But she who rules the laundry room won't allow it
