Product review (5 stars): Love, Love, Love
We had to replace a defunct 15 yr old Maytag Neptune washer-dryer combo that lived in our garage and decided to move our laundry inside to a 4' wide storage closet with a window, which made stacking 2 units impractical. I did purchase the LG pedestal for storage and ease of loading/unloading. This was the best option for us, as it allowed room for a laundry sink. I was a bit apprehensive about how well it would dry our clothes (based on some other reviews,) but let me assure you, this is most definitely not an issue! The time to complete a full wash & dry cycle is longer than with conventional machines, but the convenience of not having to move a wet load into the dryer makes it worthwhile. I love throwing in a load before work in the morning and coming home to dry laundry. Sometimes I do a load overnight. Most of our loads are done in 3 hours or less. Machine is quiet while operating (except for the cheerful little tune signaling completion of load). No issues with rocking or shifting, but the high rpms do cause some vibration of little consequence. The only drawback I find is that my husbands 100% cotton no-iron shirts come out wrinkled when I don't pull them out immediately. So I keep a spray bottle of water handy and mist them gently, hang to dry for a short time and they're ready to go. I'm still learning how to use the different settings, so maybe the steam setting will help with the shirts. Our clothes are getting much cleaner than before, and I am recommending this machine to everyone.
