Is that midwest usa? They're news to me jn the Netherlands

Yes, midwest USA. We all have gas pipes into the house for heating. So it became the default for stoves, hot water heating and clothes dryers.

I've committed to not buying new gas appliances when the old stuff breaks. I switched to a heat pump water heater last year. I really want to get rid of my gas stove next.

There's gas here too, I just never thought of using it for a dryer. Personally I'd like to ditch has ASAP too

East coast USA, also in abundance here. A good deal of homes have all gas appliances.
