When receiving the washer/dryer combo we were very impressed with the streamlined look and very easy to use controls. We especially like the dispenser system. We fill up the detergent and softer the washer does the rest. It will go for over 20 washes before alerting us to be refilled. We set the dispenser to the less option. 
The dryer is automatically started after the wash as long as the option is chosen. At first the dryer took longer than expected however It was getting the job done. The washer and all the options make up for the time the dryer takes. I’d say 45 mins to an hour to dry depending on how full it is.  I would recommend this unit especially for people living in small spaces.  It has it all.
