I have the washer over month and it is been great, my energy usage wend down noticeably and the laundry comes out dry same as my 220v dryer. There is increase of time in the wash and drying but it is manageable. The only small draw back is cleaning the water filter on the bottom, you have to keep small pan for excessive weather that can spill out. Other then that the design of this combo seem very well thought out.
