Combination Washer Dryer Combos

A washer dryer combination is a laundry solution that does both washing and drying in one unit. They are perfect for households with a small number of or two people.


All-in-one washers and dryers are electric models that plug into the standard socket of a household. They are more complex and expensive to repair than standalone appliances.

Space Savings

Washer dryer combos are the ideal solution for those living in an apartment, condo or mobile home. They function much like a front load washer and dryer but take up less space in the floor by removing the need for a laundry room.

This makes them ideal for small spaces where every inch is a precious commodity. They can be easily incorporated into the corner of a living space or bedroom, a laundry room or a closet. Plus, if you choose a ventless unit then it can be installed without the need for venting or a duct outside.

Additionally, washer dryer combos are typically cheaper than standalone appliances which makes them a budget-friendly option for many homeowners. They can also save you energy, based on the model and brand that you select. This is because the dryer part of the combination machine comes with an inbuilt water heater that regulates the temperature of your wash cycle, which saves energy by not having to run your heater throughout the cycle.

All-in-one washer/dryers are also great because you can complete your laundry routine without having to have clothes transferred from one machine to another. This is particularly helpful for those who are unable move heavy loads of laundry around your home due to mobility issues. This means that you can put the laundry in prior to working and come home to fresh, clean, dried laundry without having to move it between appliances or hanging it on the line outside.

However, you should be aware that since dryer and washer combos are designed to be compact, they often have smaller wash and dry capacity than separate dryers. You won't be able carry as large loads of laundry into them as you could with a normal standalone dryer or washer.

Some of these units use a lot of water to perform their drying functions. This can be wasteful, especially if you are on tank water and/or concerned about the environment. You must consider the energy efficiency and capacity of any washer/dryer combo before deciding whether it's the right one for your space.

Time Savings

A dryer and washer in the same appliance is a great time saver. You can start washing prior to getting out of bed and not have to switch between one machine and another. Certain combination washer dryers come with settings that allow you to wash and dry your clothes at the same. This can save you time in your busy schedule.

Another benefit of time savings is that most washer/dryer combination units are designed to be energy efficient and can save you money on your utility bills in the long run. They might not be as efficient as standalone machines but they have made progress in terms of dryer technology and washer technology over the last decade. They can save families with four members up to $100 per year on utilities.

Sorting your loads by size and type can help them go through the dryer and washing cycle faster. This is a great idea each time you load your unit. It will help to distribute your clothes evenly and allow each item to be dried in the same amount time.

In addition, the majority of models have features that cut down on the amount of water required in the washing process, which further cuts the cost of energy. You will typically find these settings in the "energy" section of the machine's settings.

Many of these machines have delay options that allow you to set the duration when you want it to be running. You can load your clothes just before you leave for work, and come back to clean and fresh clothes.

It's not difficult to see why washer dryer combinations are extremely popular. However, these appliances do come with some disadvantages that need to be weighed in the process of making a decision. Older models have limited capacities, long drying times and low efficiency ratings (except for heat-pump models), and high prices.

Energy Savings

It is possible to save energy by having a dryer and washer in the same appliance. This is because you don't need to run two appliances at the same time. However, the drying energy consumed could outweigh any savings you get from washing only.

The dryer built into washer-dryer combos heats and circulates air, using a small amount of energy compared to standalone dryers. The amount of energy used during the drying process is proportional to the size of the load. That's why if only wash small loads (such as a couple pairs of jeans, five T-shirts or sheets of queen-size) and skip the drying cycles, you will lower your overall energy costs.

The majority of combination units offer several settings for washing and drying including delicates, timing drying, and additional rinses. Some models have a steam-wash option that can whiten clothing without bleach and reduce wrinkles. They also have the option of hot water that helps sanitize fabrics. Some models have even integrated wifi that lets you monitor your laundry from the app on your phone.

The dryers in these combination units consume less energy than the average vented dryer, particularly when you choose a high-efficiency model. Some dryers use less energy as 0.78 kWh per load, which is comparable to the efficiency of a few standalone models. And if you choose a ventless combination, the unit doesn't need to be fitted with ductwork which can reduce your energy bills.

However, if you have a large laundry room with a separate washer and dryer can handle your larger loads with better efficiency than a combination machine. Plus, you can manage each appliance individually to customize your energy consumption according to your particular needs. This is a better option for energy efficiency, and gives you peace of mind. You'll also have more flexibility in the event that one or the other of your machines breaks down. Take a look at our guide to laundry basics for more tips on choosing the right equipment.

Convenience

Combination washer dryers are now a popular option for apartment dwellers and homeowners with limited space for laundry. They combine two appliances into one unit and are very user-friendly. They're also energy-efficient and have a small footprint, making them ideal for urban homes and laundry rooms.

These machines eliminate the need for air vents that are required by standalone dryers to prevent the buildup of moisture in a space. This creates a more relaxing laundry space for your family.

The dryers in the washer also have higher spin speeds, so your clothes dry faster. This can help you save time and money in the course of your laundry routine.

If you live an active lifestyle having a washing machine and dryer combination is the best choice. It lets them wash their clothes at their own pace. A lot of washer dryer combo models come with a delay feature that lets you set the appliance to start its cycle at a time that is compatible with your schedule. This allows you to load your laundry up before leaving for work, and come back to dry and freshly washed clothes.

Certain dryer/washer combinations come with an inbuilt dispenser that can be used for automatically dispensing detergent and softener based on the load size, soil level and cycle settings. This is particularly useful when you need to wash delicate clothing and don't want to fill all of your bulk containers.

These appliances are a great addition to any home however they do have some disadvantages. They are more complex and more likely to malfunction than standalone appliances. Additionally, if a dryer or washer part fails, it will interrupt both the drying and washing process until you are able to fix it.

Despite these limitations the benefits of a combination washer and dryer make it a great option for households with limited laundry space or having a tight budget. These small appliances can help you save money on your energy bills, and can also help you manage your schedule more effectively.
