I'm in the market for a new front loading washer.
I came across this washer/dryer combo and it looks interesting.
Anyone have one?

I hate buying all in one products, because if something is wrong with the one, then can I still use the other one?

I don't know but give it a try.

People get these all in one printer things which I would never get and seem to do OK.

I had one of those when I lived in England.

ARRGGHHH!!! the washer was wonderful, but look how small the space is for drying. It took forever to get dry, and came out wrinkled and rolled in a ball. The ONLY way to make it work, was to wash a load and then dry it in batches.

We have one of these in our house right now.

I dunno about the brand you are looking at, but this Maytag one is *ace*. Had to run a 220v line for it, but it works great. It also comes apart *fairly* easily for when you have to move it ('fairly' as in it's possible - if you can built your own PC from parts, you're golden. If not....don't try it.)

It's actually got a larger internal volume than the top-loading washer we used to have. And the great thing, of course, is that it uses so much less water. Very quick drying time, too - surprised at that, but we've come to like the electric heat better than gas. Since it heats up essentially immediately, it actually dries quicker than our old gas side-by-side dryer.
