Is a Washer-and-Dryer-in-One Right for Me?

One common question people have about a washer and dryer in one is whether this is the best laundry solution for their home. In order to help you decide, it is worthwhile to consider your current laundry habits and if you are able to adjust these. If you currently do all of your laundry on a single day, could you instead do one load per day over the course of several days? The cycle times are about the same as if you had washed and dried the clothes in separate appliances, and they range from 2 ½ to 3 hours. However, a combination model performs both washing and drying functions in the same machine, so you are unable to start a new load until the current one is finished.

Do you want the freedom to go off and do other things while your clothes wash and dry? Most people find they feel tied to conventional laundry pairs because they have to move the clothes from the washer to the dryer. With a combination model, you load your clothes, make your cycle selections, add your detergent, fabric softener and/or bleach, and start the cycle. You do not have to worry about wet clothes remaining in the washer since the combo model dries them once the wash cycle is completed.

If you do not mind changing your laundry habits, then a combination washer dryer might be right for you. In addition, you have flexibility in deciding where to install the appliance in your home and can convert it to a portable model that connects right to your kitchen faucet.
