I'm glad ours is in the kitchen so they can go straight out on the washing line through the back door! But I can see why it seems weird. So few UK bathrooms have space for one, even if the electricity wasn't an issue
It’s a major misconception that we have ours in the bathroom as a rule. That’s also fairly rare. Usually in pantry/closet/basement/garage, and in apt buildings, usually a set of pay machines in the basement.
Ok! Well hardly most UK houses are not big enough for those!! And I am glad that when I lived in a flat I had one in my apartment kitchen rather than paying to share use of one! When I lived in France the washing machine was in the bathroom.
I suspect my water bill is higher with the apt kitchen one. I think the other thing about the US stuff though is that it would be incredibly rare to have a washer and not a dryer, and few apts have space/hookups for both.
Yes true. I know many Americans are baffled that a lot of Brits don't have a tumble dryer. I did not until I became a home owner, 14 years after I left home to go to uni...
I have two main priorities whenever I go back to the US: eat a proper burger, and do as many loads of laundry and enjoy soft warm clothes as possible. 
I actually really dig Swedish apartment laundry rooms. They are like mini-laundromats. You sign up for 4 hour block times and then they have multiple washing machines and dryers, usually a drying closet and even a mangle. The drying closet is amazeballs.
That also was included in rent. So no coin anything.
