Product review (1 stars): Defective Product
This washer/dryer is great...when it works.  The problem is it breaks down quite often.  I think it is actually a defective product.  We bought one of these in March 2011, and it did a great job washing and drying half-full loads in about 3 hours.  However, it stopped properly draining the water/drying several times and we had to have it serviced at least 6 times within the one-year warranty.  Summit finally gave up on the original unit and gave us a replacement unit just before the warranty was up.  (By the way, the truck driver who took away the old machine and delivered the new one told me he picks these units up due to failure all the time).  The new unit has worked great for the last 5 months, but it just broke down too.  About 20 minutes into the dry cycle it stalled.  I opened it and the clothes are sopping wet and there are a couple of inches of water in the bottom.  Maybe the pump is broken?  At any rate, Summit won't warrant this unit because they only warrant for one year from the original purchase date of the original unit, they don't warrant the new unit even though it is only 5  months old.  I say stay away from this product.
