Can I get a washer in a color besides white?

 I get asked the above question frequently.  Sometimes, especially in more modern homes with open floor plans and kitchens designed for convenience,  washers and dryers are placed in high-visibility areas.  Sometimes a customer simply wants a change of pace, something besides the ubiquitous white washer/dryer pair of the past several decades.

So, back to answering that question, "Dave, can I get a washer in a color besides white?", the answer is, "Why yes you can!"   Today, there are actually quite a few color options, including reds and blues that are not available as options on kitchen appliances.

(I'll segue here for a moment.  If you are in the market for laundry, and would like an overview of options, check out my blog post here

To give an example, below is a picture of LG and Electrolux washer-dryer stacks, or "towers".  The LG, on the right, is available in bright, cherry red.  The Electrolux piece is in their "Titanium" option.

By the way, LG also makes their tower in green (and no, I don't have it on display    

Suppose you want a primary color, but that red is just a bit too bright for your taste?   Well, GE has a Sapphire Blue color on two of their front load sets:

Next, here's a pic of a brand new shade of blue, "Glacier Blue" to be exact, courtesy of Electrolux

Are these colors too out-there for you?  Lots of grey/black stainless options are available, such as the new GE Profile all-in-one washer/dryer, pictured in "Carbon Graphite" (or what you and I might call "Gray":

GE All-in-one combo PFQ97HSPVDS.  (I wrote about this unique product a few months ago on my 8-20 post:)

A few thoughts:

1) If you are shopping for laundry, you will find that the "non-white" options vary not just from brand to brand, but sometimes model to model within the brand.  Also, should you purchase a washer in a color but not the matching dryer, there is no guarantee that color will be available in the future.

2) You will usually have to "step" one or two models above a manufacturer's basic model to have color options available.

3) You might also have noticed that my examples are all front-loading machines.  Top loading washers are more likely to be available in white only.  The LG dryer below is an exception.
