Number of washers/dryers at 80 unit
I acquired an 80 unit complex early last year that featured a coin operated laundry room. There's a total of ten machines, five washers and five dryers. One washer and dryer recently went out and is beyond repair. I was planning on replacing each, however, the laundry room generates only $100 each week. Based on the run price of $1.50 per cycle, the washer and dryer is run about 33 times each every week, or around 5 times a day. As a result, I'm leaning towards not replacing and just having 4 washers and 4 dryers. Thoughts? I feel like there should be more machines present, however, collections are low.

I just recently purchased a Whirlpool set for my 8 unit property and have been very happy with the set so far. My brand decision ultimately came down to the relationship I have developed with my appliance vendor and the lines they offered. Keep in mind the value of developing this relationship now for future needs and possible repairs.
Good luck!
