Product review (4 stars): Great Washer/Dryer
I know there's a love/hate relationship with some folks regarding these washer/dryer combos.
On the one hand, it takes longer to dry (dries well only with smaller loads of 8 lbs or less), the capacity is not like the full sized washers, clothes come out a bit wrinkled, it's a heavy machine (not easily movable), not good for larger households, and the washer/dryer can be expensive. These machines are not heavy duty and should NOT be stuffed with clothes like a regular size top loading! The more you stuff it, the more wrinkled clothes comes out, and the harder it is for the machine to dry!

On the other hand, compact, perfect for small condos/apartments, convenience (NO MORE Laundromats!), plugs into a regular electrical socket, despite longer drying times my electric bill is only a couple of dollars more per month, uses less water, saves on washing detergent (uses less than top loading machines), and it's been reliable (no problems).
For me, a good product is one that lasts long time with normal use.  Every so often I drain and clean the lint from the bottom of the machine, and clean the back hose connection filter (the washer will tell you when it's time). I have an older LG model similar to this one that's little over 4 years old, and it washes all types of clothes/linen very well. I wear washable dress slacks/shirts/stockings, and it has saved me money because it comes out damp, and I can hang them in my room and air dry them overnight (no shrinkage or fading because of hot air like a dryer), so my clothes last longer. I wash several times per week. To me, this machine is fairly quiet, except when it dries you'll hear the pump draining the water. I can sleep at night and my clothes will be dry in the morning. No washing machine is absolutely quiet, but this "direct drive" motor is a lot quieter than my old belt driven top loading washer! You can hook this washer to a backyard hose or to a kitchen facet (with a small adapter that you can get from OSH/Home Depot).
I've had a separate full sized washer and dryer when I lived in a house, and yes, I would prefer that. What if space, dryer venting, and special electrical voltage is an issue in a condo or apartment?
I would recommended this washer/dryer combo for one or two people in a household.
I am happy with mine and it does the job.
