I’m looking forward to the day where the washer and dryer will be one unit. When the washing is completed, the drying process would begin. No moving clothes from the washer to the dryer. There must be a technical reason why a washer/dryer cannot be built.
The remote control thermostat is a good idea that we installed in the Minnesota house, but not in the Florida house. We have two HVAC systems in the Florida house, so I’d need to buy two of the WiFi thermostats. One benefit to having two HVAC systems, one for the master bedroom suite and the other for the rest of the house, is that you have a backup system if one of the systems breaks down. The zoning is nice too, so that the bedroom can be set cooler at night, without having to cool the whole house as much. But we’re still waiting for the whole house natural gas electric generator to be installed. If the utility power has an outage, only the water and natural gas will be working.
The water sensors are a good idea. I had water problems in the Minnesota house when We were gone for a long time. After that, I just shut off the water main as a precaution, before leaving the house for a long time period. Murphy’s law, if you’re going to have a water leak problem, it always waits till you’re away from the house for a long time period!
We haven’t done the combination door locks in the Florida house yet. I’ll have to buy four of those keypad locks.

We had a single unit washer dryer in our motorhome, took forever to do a small load of cloths. Im sure the technology has improved since then. Here is a link to 2021's best all in one machines.
