Washer Dryer Combo

A space-saving unit, the washer dryer combo is an optimal home appliance if you live in a small space, combining the performance of a front load washing machine and clothes dryer into one unit.

Take a look through our selection of front load washer dryer combos from prominent brands including, Bosch, Electrolux, Speed Queen and Samsung, to find a model that suits your needs.

One of the most important considerations when looking at a washer dryer combo is the washing and drying capacity. Keep in mind the drying capacity will usually be less than the washing capacity.

You can use your washer dryer combo just like a normal washing machine: simply choose the desired wash program, then take your clothes out once the cycle has finished. You can also use your washer dryer combo as a normal condenser dryer, to dry small loads of damp laundry on rainy days.

Additionally, most washer dryer combos provide the option of washing then drying your clothes all in the one wash cycle. Plus, many washer dryer combos are equipped with rapid spin speeds to efficiently wring out your wet clothing, streamlining the drying process.

Some models, such as the LG TwinWash take the convenience of the washer dryer combo to the next level, by providing you with a separate compartment designed to cold-wash small specialty loads.

If you would like to explore our range of laundry appliances we have an extensive range of front load washers, top load washing machines, and heat pump dryers.

1. What is a washer dryer combo?

Combining the functionality of both a washing machine and clothes dryer, a washer dryer combo is designed as a space-saving alternative to using two separate machines. Created with smaller laundry rooms and apartment living in mind, washer dryer combos can simultaneously transition from a washing cycle to a drying cycle.

2. What is the best washer dryer combo to buy?

The best washer dryer combo depends on your personal needs and preferences. With differing washing and drying capacities, native features, and functionality, each washer dryer combo performs differently.

When looking at washer dryer combos you should consider how big an internal capacity you need. An important thing to keep in mind is the washing capacity is generally larger than the drying capacity.

You should also look at the features and ash/dry functions to ensure it meets your unique washing needs and preferences.

3. How good are washer dryer combos?

Washer dryer combos are great units for homes with limited space for a separate washing machine and clothes dryer as well as offering the ability to both wash and dry clothing in the same cycle for added convenience.

4. Do washer dryer combos need venting?

Generally, washer dryer combos function like condenser tumble dryers as opposed to vented models. This means that air isn’t exhausted into your laundry room or home.

5. Do washer dryer combos really work?

Yes. Washer dryer combos combine the performance of a washer and dryer in the same unit.

6. How do washer dryer combos compare to standalone dryers?

Most washer dryer combos operate in a similar fashion to condenser tumble dryers, in that hot air is passed through a load before the water vapour is condensed into a collection tank. Condenser drying can result in longer drying times but without the side effect of vented air turning your laundry into a sauna.

7. Do washer dryer combos use water to dry?

When a drying function is active, the washer dryer combo passes hot air through your wet clothing, evaporating some of the moisture from your garments into the air. The humid air is cooled in a heat exchanger which condenses the moisture and collects it in a specialised tank or pumps it down a drain. This process is repeated until your clothing is dry.

8. What capacity is a washer dryer combo?

Washer dryer combos feature two different capacities. The first number is the washing capacity while the second is the drying capacity. For example, the Bosch 8kg/4kg Washer Dryer Combo has an 8kg washing capacity and 4kg drying capacity.

Much like separate washers and dryers, the capacity depends on the individual model. Check each model to ensure it has the optimum capacity for your household.

9. What are the Pros and Cons for washer dryer combos?

Like any appliance, a washer dryer combo has an abundance of benefits but also a few drawbacks that could affect your decision.

Pros:

-Due to the combination of a washing machine and clothes dryer, washer dryer combos have half the footprint of separate appliances.

-They allow you to wash and dry your clothes simultaneously, during the same cycle. However, you can still wash and dry independently as needed.

-Drying functions don’t vent heat into your laundry room.

Cons:

-The drying capacity is generally around half the washing capacity, which can make it difficult to wash and then dry a full load.

-Due to the nature of the drying process, it can generally take longer to dry than a vented model.

10. Should I buy a washer dryer combo?

The decision on whether or not to buy a washer dryer combo comes down to your preference, the way you use your appliances, budget, and space. If you have a smaller laundry room and only have space for one appliance, a washer dryer combo can be a natural fit, saving room in areas where every square centimetre counts.

Perhaps you rarely use a dryer but still want the functionality just in case of wet weather, or perhaps you would like the convenience of a combined washing/drying cycle.

If you have space and tend to heavily use both washing and drying appliances, it may be more beneficial to purchase separate models.

A washer combo unit merges the capabilities of both a washing machine and a dryer. Also known as a washer dryer or all-in-one washer, it’s great if you prioritise efficiency and convenience when doing your household chores.

The magic of a washer combo lies in its dual-phase operation, which lets you wash and dry in one session. After the garments are washed, the appliance transitions into the drying phase, using heated air to evaporate moisture – all without the need for manual transfer to a separate machine.
