A typical full-size washer is usually about 27 inches wide. Height can range anywhere from 34 to 42 inches. If you purchase optional pedestals that make front-loading washer and dryer pairs easier to load, they will add another 12 inches or so of height. However, the pedestals also serve as drawers, saving other storage space.
Quick Answer. A standard washer is 27 inches wide with a height ranging from 34 to 42 inches, and a standard dryer is 27 inches wide and 36 inches high. Some dryers may have a width of 29 inches. Pedestals for front-load washers and dryers alter their height by about 12 inches.
