Now cover it in denim!
It was on the market around 2021 in Lancaster, UK and still is

“Make sure the kitchen has a washing machine. That’s very important.”
“A washing machine? Are you sure?”
“Absolutely, huge selling point. Nobody likes hand washing.”
They remembered the word “dishwasher” a few days later, but it was already too late.
I think that might be a UK thing. I saw it and immediately assumed it was England, because I’ve never seen a washing machine in the kitchen, except in British television.
That’s where we put them.
The taskmaster house has a washing machine in the kitchen.
do they put it elsewhere? or most places just dont have space for it?
Where else would you put it?
British houses typically don’t have a utility room. We don’t really have the space.
Typical house you see on USA TV is massive by UK standards. A house like that here wouldn’t be affordable to most folk.
Don’t worry. Houses like that aren’t affordable to most folk in the US anymore either. At least for anyone that doesn’t already have one.
Surprising that this beauty hasn’t been snatched up yet
Check out those spatulas though!
Holy shit! I’ve been on that street. They’ve used the same type of chip board to make other stuff in the house too. I’m guessing the landlord was able to source it for free and fitted it themselves. Hope it’s rated for interior use as others here have pointed out.
who doesn’t love the scent of formaldehyde in the morning!
I just about died as a baby from formaldehyde poisoning. The brand new house was too air tight.
How much they could have possibly saved, considering also the expensive skilled labor to install it? £100 on a £2000 kitchen?
You might be surprised. Materials costs have skyrocketed since the pandemic. (I’m in the trades, not just talking out my ass)
im feeling splintery
Doesn’t that board have hella binders and toxic shit? Why would you want that anywhere near your food??
There are different versions for interior and exterior use, using different types of glue. At least OSB/0 and OSB/1 can be used for internal applications and are considered safe. Not that I would trust a landlord doing this to select the correct board type, especially since the safe variants might have some issues with the humidity exposure in a kitchen.
But there still are many cases for using OSB indoors, e.g. behind drywall to give it some more strength (instead of more expensive plywood). Wouldn’t want to leave it exposed in a kitchen though, it’ll get messy if it’s not properly treated, and in the picture it doesn’t seem to be.
This could work as an aesthetic choice but you’d have to finish it really well in order for it to last and for you to be able to keep it clean. Buying normal cupboards would probably be easier and cheaper.
the longer the stove’s in use the more burned grease droplets and soot will soak into the boards around it. Horrible idea.
It’s got good bones
Going for that 7DTD look…
It’s called fashion look it up
looks like a minecraft house. Honestly, that might do well with some people. If you were blind or hard of vision, it would be very easy to navigate by feel and memory.
If the wood wasn’t sealed/finished a blind person would probably end up with a splinter
It’s to show off the beautiful wood
When your fire insurance is worth more than your house.
I can fix her.
As someone who ADORES bare chipboard, and glazed brick tiles, and whose favourite colour is green… I ought to love this, but jfc it is nightmarishly bad.
