I think a lot of Americans would agree that any time we visit Europe we at some point or another during our vacation think to ourselves, Okay, these Europeans really are doing this right! Whether it's the food, the work/life balance, or the cities designed with walking or public transportation in mind, there are things that really are better in many, many countries across Europe.

And recently, Reddit user meryse touched upon that very topic when they asked: "What do Europeans have in everyday life that you consider a luxury in America?"

Well, lots of Americans chimed in to share the common European things, both big and small, that they thought would be a luxury here in the States. Below are some of the top and best answers:

1."No gaps in bathroom stall doors — the ones between the door."

2."Automatically having 4–6 weeks of vacation at time of hire."

3."Quality of work life."

4."No high fructose corn syrup in everything!!! Like, you don't even need to check the label for it."

5."Those towel warmer racks, and heated bathroom floors."

6."Extremely strong consumer protection laws. A bare minimum quality/duration expectation of all services and products. I love this one because different companies or foreign products try to circumvent this all the time and they always lose."

7."'Bum Guns.' I want bidets to be widely accepted in the US."

8."Can’t believe it’s not more prominent, but the right to privacy, and recently digital privacy. GDPR was an excellent piece of legislation."

9."Fresh baked bread for reasonable prices that you can get in walking distance of your home, and aren't full of preservatives."

10."Decent quality chocolate available in almost any random corner shop."

11."Real farmers markets."

12."Good public transport outside of main cities. Germans in particular love to complain about Deutsche Bahn (and rightfully so), but compared to the USA it's just so much more versatile."

13."Time. Time to eat in a restaurant without being shoved out. Time to sip coffee at a cafe. Time to spend with new children. Time to go on vacation. Seems like an unattainable luxury to this American."

14."Can't speak for all of Europe, but workers rights. WTF is 'Getting fired on the day'? Or quitting, for that matter? You get three months here."

15."Food that doesn’t have a ton of artificial additives and non-food ingredients that makes you sick. I never realized that was what was causing my stomach problems until I went on vacation in Europe and within a day had no problems at all. And it came back a day after I returned. They can make great food, even packaged junk food, with just real food ingredients. Why can’t we?"

16."Affordable high-speed Internet. Like 1gigabyte/s (up and down!) for under €20 per month. With negligible installation fees. And it includes over a hundred cable channels."

17."I'm just going to assume 'really good cheese' is a legitimate answer."

18.And lastly: "Maternity leave and healthcare come to mind — in particular affordable healthcare and maternity being equally available to everyone. I know in the US some people have healthcare and some companies offer paid maternity leave, but it's not the standard."
