Re: Are washer-dryers any good these days?
What a shame. I really want to get the washer and dryer out of the kitchen.
Plan B was to stack the dryer on top of the washer. I know kits exist for this, but I was concerned about the vibration from the washer on spin. Can it be done?
Re: Are washer-dryers any good these days?
Pretty much what I expected, but I thought things might have moved on. I note that the guide you linked to seems to be quite old! One of the points, that the drum is too small to dry well seems like it might not apply anymore given the 8 and 9kg drums I’m looking at.
Really the issue is of drying speed and evenness. The Which review of the Hotpoint I mentioned suggests it’s pretty quick, and while I would not believe manufacturer’s ratings, surely Which are reasonably trustworthy.
I take your point about condensation and electrics, not that much of a problem in our bathroom as it’s big and has an extractor which we use whenever we create steam. Are LG any better in this respect, they do a reasonably well-reviewed 9kg model? Would a properly installed RCD-protected spur not eliminate the risk of shocks?
