The other day I happened onto this way to do laundry I had no clue even existed. There are machines that will do both washing and drying in the same unit!
These are not normally items you would find in your regular department store, and they work differently from regular full size washers and dryers that sit side by side or that are stacked. Washer dryer combo units have several advantages over the regular machines. They take up less space, they use less energy, they use less water, they can operate on a standard 3-prong wall outlet, they can be rolled on wheels, don't require venting, can be stored in a closet, and the list goes on!
This doesn't mean everyone should be getting one of these combo units. They are most definitely not for everyone! Yes they have advantages, but they also can't do a lot of things as well as the standard appliances. The standard appliances that work with higher voltage and venting will get the laundry much drier in much less time, and will also handle much bigger loads.
So why would you choose the combo unit over the regular appliances? Maybe you live in a condo or apartment with a dismal laundry room and you'd prefer the convenience of doing your laundry in the privacy of your own home? Maybe you have a business where you want the ability to wash and dry items right there but don't have the standard setup for washing and drying? Maybe you have an RV or vacation home with limited space?
In short, the combo dryer washer unit fills a very particular niche need and is worth checking out!
