FAQs
- How to use a washing machine with dryer?
Operating a washing machine with dryer size of any, generally follows the same steps except, of course, the drying part. This is because the drying process differs based on how the dryer is integrated into your washing machine setup and as we all know, there are two of them:
1. All-in-one washer/dryer unit
- In the case of an all-in-one washer/dryer unit, the transition from washing to drying is seamless and automatic. Once the washing cycle is complete, the machine smoothly transitions into the drying cycle without requiring any manual intervention.
- This streamlined process saves you time and effort, ensuring that your laundry is washed and dried without the need for a separate drying step.
2. Separate washer and dryer
- On the other hand, if you have a separate washer and dryer, the process involves a bit more hands-on effort. After the washing cycle finishes, you need to manually transfer the damp clothes from the washer drum to the dryer drum.
- While this step requires a few extra minutes of your time, it offers the advantage of allowing you to inspect your clothes post-wash, ensuring that they are ready for the drying process.
- How do I choose a washer-dryer?
Although there is an alternative choice to place a washer above the dryer on front-loading machines individually, a single-unit combination is still a better choice. To give you a better understanding of how to choose one properly, we have some tips that you can look out for before buying.
-
Cost
Undoubtedly, a combo is more expensive when compared to the conventional washing machine and dryer, with each unit being bought individually. However, the price difference can be reasoned out with the fact that combos ultimately use less water, energy and detergent. So the best choice here is to weigh out your options and have a pick at the safer bet for you.
-
Capacity
Bear in mind that capacity plays a big part here if you have a large family. You’ll need to find the largest model which fits in your home yet, is according to your budget. On the other hand, smaller load capacities are great for individuals. All in all, good observation is needed here.
-
Warranties and Guarantees
Most appliances usually have a one-year warranty. However, a washer dryer combo is regarded as a high-quality levelled product and thus, there are many different components covered as any one of those could become faulty or damaged within that year.
So a one year warranty is a standard term but you may be able to extend this in some circumstances, say up to 5 years sometimes. For that reason, do be sure to understand the terms and conditions of the product before final purchase.
- Do washer-dryers actually work?
A washer dryer is a washing machine with a built-in tumble dryer. The dryer pushes warm, dry air through your laundry, removing moisture and cooling the humid air. It definitely works and saves you time as it can wash and dry your clothes in one cycle.
- Is it better to have a separate washer-dryer?
If you lack space, and drying your clothes on a rack or clothing line is not feasible, an all-in-one washer-dryer would be an excellent choice. They're also ideal for smaller families, i.e. smaller loads.
Frankly, while the washer works fine, drying can take longer than a separate dryer. On top of that, you can’t do another load of laundry till the drying is done. Besides being faster, separate machines also tend to be more energy efficeint.
Hence, it would be better to get a separate washer-dryer if you can afford, financially, and in terms of footprint,
