Washer and dryer - pros and cons of purchasing

Quite often, drying any type of laundry is considered a problematic task. Especially if it's winter outside. Accordingly, I really want to buy a washing machine and dryer. Such devices have a number of advantages. However, you need to understand that they are quite expensive.

Purchasing built-in washing machines and dryers, the reviews of which are pleasant, will only be beneficial for those who have a large apartment. Reviews from experts about such devices are excellent. But you should be prepared for the fact that the performance of such joint devices is much less than that of two separate devices. This is especially true for loading laundry. This indicator in a combined machine is usually 2-3 times lower.

Need to buy

A machine that can wash and dry clothes is usually popular. This is an electronic-mechanical type unit. Such a device, in many ways, according to professionals, simplifies the work for every housewife. With it, there is no need to constantly hang out your laundry, wait for it to dry and then take it off. Based on reviews from the owners, we can say that such a device attracts those buyers who do not have loggias or balconies. Such machines will also be convenient for mothers who have very small children, and will also be useful for those who have to wash their clothes quite often.

Principle of operation

Machines that not only wash but also dry clothes have two heating devices. One of them is called heating element. Thanks to it, the air is heated, which is supplied into the washing machine tank using a special hole.

How does the described process occur in washing machines and dryers? Reviews often ask about this, so the question is relevant. Hot air completely blows the wet laundry, taking in all the moisture that is in it. Then, through the formation of condensation, the remaining moisture enters the drainage system. Accordingly, things are heard as evenly as possible. The process does not depend on the rotation speed of the device’s container, but on how often and quickly the hot air circulates. The uniformity of operation is emphasized by the direction of movement of the drum, which characterizes the operation of the device.

Fabric types

You need to understand that each type of fabric should be washed in a special way. Accordingly, the same rules can be applied to drying. This point is taken into account by any equipment manufacturer. Of course, certain models of devices are produced for each type of fabric. For example, an Electrolux washing machine will have two windows at once that heat the air. If there is cotton laundry in the drum and this is indicated in the operating settings of a certain mode, then they will turn on simultaneously. If it is necessary to process synthetic fabrics, then only one of them will function.

Convenience of devices

Many people wonder about the convenience of a washing machine and dryer for owners. Reviews from experts emphasize that, firstly, such a device will significantly save space. All owners who have such devices receive clean and dry laundry at the end of the process. It can be put on immediately. There is no need to hang things up or wait for a long time, especially if it’s winter outside. In addition, the device also straightens laundry. Accordingly, most of your wardrobe and linen will not have to be ironed after washing. Users confirm this in reviews of washing machines and dryers.

pros

• Saving time . A washer-dryer saves time. This is especially true in a large family with children, since they have to do a lot of laundry, and hanging things on a line is no longer possible due to lack of space. They will dry much longer this way, especially if the weather is not sunny and the house is not warm.
• Space saving . If you are considering purchasing a freestanding dryer, you should keep in mind that it will take up additional space in your home. And the price will be much more expensive. The best option would be to buy a washing machine with a built-in dryer, which will be more practical. It will be identical in size to its counterpart without this function.
• Getting rid of constant dampness . You will no longer have to hang things in the room to dry, which will eliminate constant dampness. Because of it, fungus and mold can develop. In addition, due to the increase in air humidity, the laundry will take even longer to dry.
• No dust . During standard drying, clothes collect a huge amount of dust, which then spreads throughout the house. Owners of washing machines and dryers note that with the purchase of equipment, their home looks much cleaner and they have to clean less often.
• Clean balcony . By purchasing a washing machine and dryer, you will no longer have to constantly carry things onto the balcony, clutter the hangers with them, and show your laundry to random passers-by on the street. Instead, you can make something else out of the balcony, one of the options is a relaxation room.
• Aesthetic side . In an ordinary house without a dryer, guests will often look at the clotheslines hanging around the apartment. A washer and dryer will eliminate this, and when strangers suddenly arrive, you will no longer need to remove things from the lines to make the room look acceptable.

Drying types

All combined devices, as a rule, have washing selected as the main function. Drying is considered an additional option. Therefore, in many models it can still be set using a timer. But it should be noted that more expensive and improved options are already appearing on the market. In them, drying lasts until a certain humidity level, which is present in the drum. In such models, a thermometer is installed, which serves as a sensor. Its smart system allows you to determine not only the air humidity in the drum, but also the level of moisture in the laundry itself. As soon as this indicator drops to the minimum level, drying stops. There are many positive reviews from customers and professionals that this system is as convenient and comfortable as possible. She can bring the laundry to a state where it is not overdried, but does not remain damp.

If you need to wash delicate clothes regularly, you should choose an Electrolux washer and dryer. Reviews make it clear that the device copes with this task perfectly.

Do I need a washer and dryer?

Such a purchase is not always necessary. Should I take a washing machine and dryer? The answer will be positive in the following cases:

1. There is no balcony;
2. There is a busy road nearby. This provokes an increase in dust and dirt in the air, so the laundry loses its cleanliness and freshness;
3. The window faces north, so there is a high level of humidity in the room;
4. A large family and things don’t have time to dry naturally;
5. The family has small children;
6. A busy schedule does not allow you to spend a lot of time on household chores.

In the situations described, it is worth considering purchasing washing equipment and drying. And if several points coincide at once, then it is advisable to acquire such a machine.

But it should be understood that technology will increase energy consumption. And inexpensive models can dry out laundry.

Weight of things

The drying mode in washing machines has one serious drawback. Unfortunately, it is only capable of handling half the maximum weight in wash mode. For example, the Electrolux EWH100 1781 model is capable of washing about 7 kg of laundry at a time. Drying can work at three and a half kg, so this process will be stretched out for the housewife in two stages. Because of this, many, both users and experts, note that combined units are considered not very convenient when dealing with a large amount of laundry.

How is it different from the usual

I would like to immediately note that there are separate dryers that perform only this function. However, this is not very convenient:

• you have to interfere with the washing regime and rearrange things;
• separate drying takes up extra space.

A washing machine with a built-in drying function is a very convenient option for household appliances, which provides an almost complete laundry care cycle, unlike a conventional automatic machine. In particular, it is provided:

• wash;
• rinsing;
• spin;
• drying.

There are probably no people who would not adequately appreciate such a device.
Experts in a study of the usefulness of this unit noted that if it is present in the house, the time savings on caring for things is reduced to at least 15 hours per month. So, in addition to convenience, we also get time savings. See also -

Power consumption

Such manipulations will take additional time, and besides, the energy consumption (judging by the reviews) of washing machines and dryers is impressive. If you want to save energy, then don’t buy the best combination washing machine. They are less economical. As a rule, their energy consumption class is no higher than B. There are units with even greater resource utilization. They can be classified as classes C and D. Manufacturers are currently trying to correct the situation. An example is the Hotpoint-Ariston Arsd 129 model. This model can wash about 7 kg of clothes and dry up to 5 kg. However, these indicators still greatly depend on the type of fabric. If it is capable of absorbing a large amount of moisture, then you will have to reduce the number of things that will remain in the drum for further drying.

Dimensions and efficiency

These indicators are considered the main disadvantages of washing machines with a drying function. However, buyers have the opportunity to choose compact options. For example, some manufacturers produce narrow drying machines. But their volume of laundry will be small.

Expert opinion

I work in the household appliance repair industry. Extensive experience in restoring washing machines and dishwashers.

Ask a Question

Large-sized options are more common. Their selection is larger, and the price is sometimes lower. But not every apartment has a place for such a machine.

Washing and drying devices can only be called economical in terms of time consumption. The additional mode uses a lot of electricity, so when choosing a suitable unit you need to pay attention to the energy consumption class. It should be quite tall.

Are you using citric acid?

Oh yes! No

Model selection

Many people are wondering which device to buy. Washing machines from Ariston, Samsung, Candy, Electrolux are now popular. This question is relevant for every buyer. There are a huge number of ways that will allow you to make your choice as accurately as possible. As a result of the right decision, the buyer will not regret. It should be based on the functionality of the device, size, protection from heat and leaks. According to customer reviews, a washing machine with dryer should be purchased at a high price - this way you can protect yourself as much as possible from shortcomings.

Pros and cons of washer-dryers

One of the factors that consumers fear when choosing this type of washing machine and dryer is frequent breakdowns due to the combination of a set of programs. It should be noted that the additional function does not reduce the quality of the equipment and service life. Certified products last no less than the warranty period, or even several times longer. But when you choose this technique, be prepared to operate it according to the instructions.

For a long, coordinated service, the following rules should be adhered to:

1. It is forbidden to load more than what is put into the drum.
2. The control panel must be inaccessible to children's hands. This often leads to system failure.
3. Plug the dryer into a separate outlet, that is, do not connect additional devices.
4. Avoid things that could damage the inside of the machine.
5. Avoid drying silk, wool and large items.
6. It is good to check the contents of your pockets before washing and remove all items.

To finally decide and make the right choice of washing machine and dryer, you should know all its advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages:

• A combination of two devices in one. A washing machine and dryer in one is a big plus in favor of saving space, assuming that these could be two separate large units of equipment.
• Saves drying time. Even under favorable weather conditions, it will not be possible to dry clothes so quickly. Provides quick drying of a considerable amount of things.
• Versatility. With its help you can dry not only things. Shoes or children's toys can also be easily dried or disinfected with its help.
• No excess humidity in the house. Drying things in the apartment leads to excess moisture. In addition, in order to hang things within the apartment, you must also allocate space, that is, this also takes up space.

Flaws:

Despite the great advantages on the side of this technique, there are also disadvantages that should be taken into account when choosing a drying machine.

• When loading a full drum, don't expect to dry the same amount of laundry in one go. As a rule, you will have to do this several times. Well, this is an extra waste of time and energy costs.
• The cost of a machine with drying is much higher. This is typically up to 30 percent more expensive than a standard model without a dryer.
• Wear of fabrics. Only proper and competent care of things will ensure the preservation of its quality condition and appearance. Sometimes neglecting programs, misusing them leads to the rapid destruction of things.
• In general, drying uses a lot of energy, so your energy bill will increase significantly.

Price categories

However, the first thing you need to consider when planning to buy a combination washing machine is your budget. In the modern market you can notice about 30 new categories. As a rule, the average cost of a budget device is below 20 thousand rubles. These devices have a very small number of built-in programs and are assembled from components that are not of the highest quality. Accordingly, the warranty for such a device is small. In fact, the washing machine lasts about 5 years. An example of such a washing machine and dryer is LG. Reviews of the devices from this manufacturer are good, despite their relation to the budget segment.

If you use a little more financial investment, that is, purchase a device from the middle segment, then you need to take a closer look at models from the brands Electrolux, Bosch, Zanussi, and so on. As a rule, their cost will be up to 40 thousand rubles. The device can be used for about 7 years. Buyers notice that the characteristics of the devices are really good. Experts note that we are pleased not only with the large number of built-in programs, but also with high washing parameters. There are also additional options. We're talking about wrinkle protection, temperature control, and so on.

It is clear that devices from a high price category will work well, without inconvenience in operation. They have great functionality. However, you will have to pay about 100 thousand rubles for this. According to experts, the high cost is fully justified. In addition, the long service life is good news. Such machines often last up to 15 years.

LG company

At first glance, LG devices look similar to equipment from other manufacturers. This is understandable since they are designed to perform the same functions. Accordingly, the operating instructions will be approximately the same.

But still, the devices do have some fundamental differences. For example, LG machines have special software called “We take care of what is dear to you.” It is designed specifically for models from this manufacturer. It consists in the fact that the machine automatically selects a special sequence of operation, which allows minimal damage to the fabric, while the washing still remains of high quality. This is due to how dirty the laundry is. Accordingly, this allows you to wash things quite effectively without damaging them. As they say in reviews, the LG F1296CD3 washing machine and dryer performs well in this matter.

Reliability of drying machines

Despite the fact that washing units with a drying function appeared on the Russian market quite a long time ago, they are not very popular. Some believe that such machines are unreliable, and additional elements quickly fail. Nevertheless, practice shows that if you choose a reliable manufacturer and with proper operation of the machine, the device will serve without fail for many years.

Disadvantages of units with a drying function:

• Given the technical difficulties, the likelihood of breakdown will be higher than in a conventional car.
• Devices of this type must never be overloaded. In drying mode, the SMA will only cope with half the volume of clothes if the drum is fully loaded. Manufacturers recommend drying washed clothes in batches, dividing them into 2 or 3 portions. For many, this is a significant inconvenience, so because of this disadvantage, housewives often refuse to purchase a machine with a dryer. For example, if a volume of 6 kilograms of laundry is suitable for washing, then for drying you will have to take no more than 2.5 kg.
• Among the minuses, it is worth noting the low energy consumption class. This suggests that the operation of such devices will require large amounts of electricity. If, at the same time, drying has to be carried out in several stages, you can get large utility bills.
• The third serious disadvantage is the cost of drying machines and their large dimensions. Some are deterred from purchasing a unit by the price, while others are deterred by the lack of free space in the apartment. Therefore, a considerable number of our compatriots prefer to install compact automatic washing machines at home and dry their clothes on the balcony.

SMA "Electrolux" with drying

As for the advantages, they include the following:

• A machine with a dryer allows you to save time not only on hanging clothes, but also on ironing.
• Often, even when using the intensive mode, the fabric straightens out, so ironing things will be easy.

• Synthetic fabrics do not require additional processing at all after using the drying mode.
• Some buyers also pay attention to such a plus as a nice design. Washing machines with a drying function from trusted manufacturers are not only highly reliable and convenient, but also stylish in appearance. This machine is sure to become a decoration for any home laundry room.

Feature set of LG machines

There are six special programs that are built into the software. For example, an LG washing machine may have a standard rotation. As a rule, this function is traditional. It is selected by default and provides high-quality washing. There is practically no need to iron after the drying process. There may be some folds, but there are very few of them.

There is a special regime. It has two positive effects at once. Firstly, it reduces noise to a minimum: there is no effect of falling laundry. Secondly, air microbubbles are formed, which will completely remove dirt. Candy washing machines and dryers also work with this mode. Reviews about it are positive. Buyers note that devices of both brands work at night without any discomfort for residents.

The rocking mode allows you to make washing as efficient as possible. This algorithm will provide a special state for the laundry in the drum: as if it were in zero gravity. Accordingly, the fabric will not deteriorate when it hits the wall. The saturation algorithm will allow you to wash clothes even if the load is incomplete, so this mode is used most often. It works in such a way that all the detergent is distributed evenly. An excellent implementation of this mode, judging by the reviews, is in the LG F1296CD3 washing machine and dryer.

The last function is reverse movement. It allows you to direct the flow of water in the form of a vortex. The detergent spreads as much as possible and improves the quality of the wash.

Samsung Company

Another popular manufacturer is Samsung. Washing machines and dryers (their reviews are excellent), which are produced by this manufacturer, have long been in demand, although they are in the inexpensive price segment. This equipment is equipped with a minimum of options, but most models cope well with all functions. These machines are capable of washing even delicate linens made from delicate materials. Specialists work with the unique Eco Bubble technology. Thanks to this, all laundry is gently washed with foam. This function is especially in demand if the contaminated fabric easily deteriorates. This completely eliminates the impact on clothing or linen of chemical elements contained in the detergent.

Also, the branded Diamond drum will allow you to achieve the most positive effect when washing. Reviews from experts about washing machines and dryers from this manufacturer will force the buyer to pay attention to the devices. The relief resembles the facet of a precious stone. Thanks to this shape, the results of both washing and drying are good. During operation of the device, water is retained in special holes in the drum. As a result, the machine is able to produce dry laundry, which can be quickly ironed immediately.

Selection tips and reviews

Most housewives who have been using washing machines with a drying function for a long time recommend purchasing such devices in their reviews. In reality, this is convenient, but it is important to choose a device that will not take up much space.

Experts recommend buying either narrow washing machines or built-in appliances for apartments. The last option is considered the most convenient, as it saves space. However, the cost of such machines with a drying function will be higher.

Experienced housewives advise choosing products from famous manufacturers. Their products will cost more, but their reliability is many times higher than that of little-known brands.

As for the reviews, they are very contradictory, there are both positive and negative:

Six months ago we bought a washing machine with a drying function. I couldn't even think about it. Why is it so convenient, no problems with washing and drying even in autumn and winter. Despite the fact that the machine looks quite reliable, I don’t want to overload it, I’m afraid of breakdowns. Therefore, I put no more than 4 kg with a possible 6. At the same time, the machine washes, spins, and dries the laundry at one time. Very comfortably!

Lyudmila, Ryazan

We bought the dryer as a gift for our parents. They consider it convenient, but unprofitable, since electricity consumption is very high. We have a class C car, so the electricity bills come up big!

Maria, Nizhny Novgorod

Overall I like the car, but the instructions are very incomplete. To top it all off, the assembly is made in China! I am adding this review after a year and a half of daily use. Quiet, stable (didn’t move even half a centimeter the whole time), the filter is easy to clean, you can remove lint after drying by turning on the rinse without spinning (it takes 6 minutes). I'm changing the rating from 4 to 5 - she deserves it!

ElenaLG F-1496AD3

The device copes with its main functions very well. Loading laundry and detergent is convenient. Pleasant, modern design, easy control and clear display. At first there was a slight smell of rubber when combined washing and drying, but now it has subsided. So far we are happy with the car. If I find mistakes in the work, I will lower the rating.

The cheapest models have only a minimum set, which still allows you to completely wash synthetic or cotton laundry with maximum effect. Specialists create special algorithms that will allow you to process things carefully but effectively. Among the good features, as they say in reviews of washing machines with dryers, is the accelerated cleaning process. The laundry will spin at 100 rpm. Due to this, a minimum amount of water and electricity is consumed. According to customer reviews, this mode washes clothes perfectly. It is especially good for washing woolen items. Experts note that this mode will prevent the formation of pills during washing and drying.

Like other combined units, Ariston devices can also bleach things and rinse them as much as possible. Thanks to the unique drum rotation technology, these processes are performed perfectly. According to reviews, the best washer-dryers perform well at night as they make little noise.
