How to Get the Best Washer Dryer Integrated

There are many advantages to choosing a washer dryer that's combined with two separate appliances. One of the reasons is that they can pack a lot into an appliance that is usually hidden behind doors to cabinets.

The GE Washer and Dryer Combo earned a D Energy Rating and comes with some extra features that we haven't seen on other dryers for washing. These include remote operation and the ability to download additional programs through an app. It also has smart care technology that alerts you of duct or lint filter clogs.

Energy STAR (r)

Although it might seem counterintuitive however, the ENERGY STAR(r) certification can actually make for an energy-efficient washer and dryer combo. The government-backed program certifies appliances based on their energy usage, so you'll get the most efficient performance and convenience while helping to reduce your expenses and protecting the environment.

ENERGY STAR(r) washer dryers are typically a little more expensive to purchase than other models, but they'll pay for themselves through energy savings in the long term. It is recommended to look for dryers that have C-ratings or higher. Also, make sure to use the lowest temperatures for water and the longest spin cycles. Check the moisture sensor on the machine, which will stop the cycle once your clothes are completely dry and will prevent drying too long.

Another way to save is to use an appliance that has an extremely high spin speed, which removes more water from each load so the dryer will require less energy to dry your laundry. Review the specifications for your chosen model to see if it has a high spin speed.

Comparing integrated models with freestanding dryers and washers they have a lot more features in a smaller space. They typically come with fewer bells and whistles than freestanding washers, however they do have useful features like steam washing and smart connectivity that simplify laundry time. Look for a variety of programs like wool, eco, cotton cycles and heavy-duty cycles. Also, look for moisture sensors to help lower energy costs and avoid over-drying.

Smart Dispense Adaptive

A smart washer that can automatically adjust the amount of detergent that is dispensed is a great method to reduce the amount of soap you consume. You can also avoid overdoing the soap and putting yourself at risk of forming mildew due to an accumulation of detergent. A smart dispenser will also alert you when it's the best time to purchase more laundry soap.

Optimized for space This GE washer dryer combination eliminates the need for separate appliances by combining two crucial functions into a compact unit. This space-saving innovation works well in condominiums, apartments, and other cramped spaces. It's also covered by a limited warranty of one year to provide additional peace of thought.

Smart Sensors

Washer-dryer pairs with integrated washers that have Wi-Fi connectivity are able to connect to your home's wireless network, so you can track the progress of your laundry anywhere with an Internet connection. You can also receive alerts when your laundry is done and also access other important information like energy usage. Some machines even can run a dry cycle while the washer being on, which can make your laundry more efficient in terms of energy use.

One of our favorite models, the LG WM4000H and its matching DLEX4000 dryer, have an impressive selection of cycles and settings that include steam and heavy-duty. Its 2.3-cubic foot capacity makes it the biggest of our combo picks and its spin speed of 1,400 RPM is significantly faster than that of competitors. This is an excellent choice for large loads of laundry to wash, like sheets of king size.

The GE UltraFresh washer and dryer set, which has an innovative antimicrobial treatment to remove odors from musty smells, is another model to consider. Its slim size and stylish sapphire color make it easy to fit into a mudroom or closet. The ventless design also means that you don't have to install an additional duct.

Time Estimates

One of the advantages of combo machines is that they do away with the necessity to transfer clothes from one machine to another. When the washing cycle is completed the machine will automatically switch to the dryer cycle. You can unwind or cook dinner while the laundry is being made.

The biggest disadvantage of a washer-dryer combination is that the capacity of the drum is much smaller than separate washers and tumble dryers. This limits the size of a load can be washed and dried at once. This makes it difficult to dry large quantities of towels and sheets (which is the reason why a lot of washers are rated as low in drying performance). This also means that you must wash your laundry in batches. This is both inconvenient, and consumes more energy.

If you have children who stain your clothing, you can minimize this issue by choosing the model with an enormous drum. However, you will be able to determine if it is enough to meet the laundry needs of your household. Look for a heavy-duty cycle steam and stain-treating option in case you intend to use these features frequently.

An excellent choice is the Electrolux ELFW7637AT, which comes with a huge drum, excellent cleaning capabilities, and lots of useful features. It also has an energy rating of C, which means it's less expensive to run than other models that aren't Energy Star certified. It's a little more expensive than other all-in-one washer-dryers however it's less expensive to run in the long term. It's also easier to locate replacement parts than older models, meaning repairs are less costly.

App Control

The washer dryer integrated allows you to wash your clothes in one appliance, reducing space and making it easier to move your clothes from the dryer to the washer. A combo appliance often saves you energy since it uses less water to wash and dry your clothes than a separate unit could. In addition, some clever, integrated dryer models allow you to control and monitor your laundry using a smartphone app or voice commands so that you can know the time when your load is complete or receive an update on the progress of your load.

Many integrated washer dryers pack lots of features in small units. They're an excellent choice for those living in small homes or apartments who don't have the space for a separate dryer and washer. Some of our top models have unique laundry cycles like a sanitary cycle that removes odors and kills bacteria, or an auto-fill feature that assesses your load of laundry and adjusts the amount of water you use to reduce energy use.

Jackie Reeve, senior staff writer and long-term test Jackie Reeve have used the LG DLEX4000 and WM4000H for more than four years and found them be reliable.
