How freaking big is your house? I'm in a rather large 3500+ sqft across 3 levels and I really never struggle to hear if the laundry is running and it's isolated in its own room on one corner of the house.... behind a solid wood door too.
My washer dryer are old fashioned and I live in a 1100sq ft home and can hear when the machine is running. And my dryer has a buzzer. So I think I will just not buy one with wifi.
The laundry is next to the garage and I work from the exact opposite end of the house.
Is also a front loader that’s pretty quiet even when spinning.
I'm in less than half your size and am two floors away from my washer. Not everyone has a nicely designed home.
That said, I generally buy the simplest appliances I can.
