Mini Washer Dryer - Does Size Matter?

Sorry about the title, I just couldn't help myself! :)  Of course size matters! haha If you are trying to fit an appliance into a small residence, then size can make all the difference as to whether it can happen or not. 

The mini washer dryer I'm talking about is the combination unit washer and dryer, where the washing and drying is done all in the same tub.  These typically run about 34" high x 24" wide x 24" deep.  This is not unlike the space that a good sized tv might take up.  So what you've got is a double kind of reduction.  Instead of two regular side by side appliances, you only have one.  That one is smaller than one of the original set.

So you've got a much smaller unit than conventional washer/dryer sets.  But if you think about it, smaller size doesn't matter so much if it's not practical to use.  Why bother being able to stick an appliance in a closet if you can utilize it as you need it? 

These dryer washer combos have that part taken care of too.  Simply put, they are portable.  This means you can put it in a corner of a room or wherever it will fit, and when you need it you can roll it over to the kitchen sink, hook it up, and you're good to go!
