You might want to wait til they work all the bugs out. ...and come down in price a bit. Also, if you currently have a washer and dryer, and the dryer's gas fired, your cost of utilities could go up a bit. Gas is cheaper than electricity.

As i understand it though, these all in one units dry clothes differently than the conventional electric dryers where a lot of heat goes out the vent. The all in ones dont need to be vented. They use a heat pump and retain most of the heat within the unit, so supposedly they're more efficient. ..but i think they take longer to dry. Also, most of them dont trap lint, which could be problematic to the unit as the lint tends to build up inside..

I spent a week in an apartment in Korea and they have this all in one washing machine, but the instructions are in Hangul so I had no idea what to do with it haha. We managed but it didn't give me satisfying results. Still preferred hand wash only if time isn't a constraint.

They're useful but they don't tell you that the dryer load might be half the washer load, so half your washing needs to sit around damp for hours. Not the best, that.
I have it but the capacity of the dryer is less than the washer so I have to be mindful about the load .But its super useful.

They’re called laundry centers, and they’ve been around for at least 35-40 years.

@RedBaron talking about something totally different.
