[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was ready to go back to separate washer)/dryers after my last combo. I'm so happy I decided to give it one more try. This combo is so great! It's quiet and does the job in a timely manner
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our company bought this to assist the custodial department in washing their reusable mop and rags. So far it has worked great for our needs and has been relatively easy to operate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We needed more room in our utility bathroom as it’s an addition to a home built in the 1880s, so the space doesn’t function effortlessly.
My wife and I were skeptical at first on buying a combo washer and dryer because of reviews talking about long drying time.
From our research I can tell you most bad experiences we read about were user error and not the fault of Whirlpool or the appliance quality.
The first thing we washed was a queen size comforter, and it’s poofy. It far exceeded the maximum fill line, and it was completely dry in just under 4 hours (bulky/heavy duty settings).
We love this appliance.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Has some kinks to work out

We bought this in October and started using it in December. We have 3 cats and this probably contributes to the washer frequently clogging due to the lint management system. When this happens, you have to drain the basin and the setup for this is not ideal. We can go 4 full loads before we get the error message and have to unclog again.
During the drying cycle, water accumulates in the detergent tray, and then drips down the side of the unit to the floor. Poor design.
Other issue is the control panel sometime is unresponsive and I have to unplug the unit and plug it back in.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good technology with a minor design flaw.

I have been using this washer/dryer for about a week in my apartment. I purchased it because I have no hook ups and the apartment company charges 2.75 for a wash and 2.75 minimum for 50 min dry.
It works great. It is a great washer, it vibrates a little when on max spin speed but a 50mm/1.96 gap between spaces is code and is more than enough.
That being said, it also drys the clothes but this is not as efficient as a vented dryer. I have put it through its paces and it will wash and dry a cal king comforter heavy weight in about 4.5 hours. It handled a load of socks and underwear above the fill line for drying in about 3 hours. It works for 1 person living alone. I tried washing and dry only instead of wash/dry and the results were damp. If you dry on dry only it spins then drys no matter what but doesnt dry all the way... So the best way is wash and dry.
It works!! Your clothes will be washed and dry. However, there is a slight design flaw with the detergant/softerner dispencer. Steam comes out of the dispencer when it drys. I had a tech come and diagnose it because I thought it was a defect. The hose that puts the detergent into the drum for washing does not have a valve. As a result, you will get some minor condensation/steam coming from the dispencer on the top of the machine. Its not too bad but a design flaw in my opinion. I guess you could block the opening with something when drying but that is optional. It doesnt make my apartment humid or anything.
Finally and again, it works and is a lot less expensive than LG. It is basic and gets the job done with the exeception of the minor flaw I described.
One last thing, you have to clean the rubber seal with something because it doesnt have a lint trap. You can use anything and Whirlpool recommends a specific item but I found clorox disenfecting wipes the cheapest option. About every 2 loads there will be lint all around the seal inside and out. I just use about 2 clorox wipes and it gets most of it and disenfects also.

So far so good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using this washer/dryer combo for about a month. There is a learning curve but so far it’s doing what it should. In the summer I’m going to wish there was a “wash only” cycle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not happy at all

The idea sounded great for an all in one unit. Saves space and It looks nice but that's about it. It takes roughly 5 hours to wash and dry 1 load which wasn't the end of the world since we do our laundry at night but since it's ventless that means most the lint stays in the washer as the rest goes down the drain constantly clogging. In order to unclog, the filter hole is at the bottom of the unit in a very tight spot. You got big hands forget it, you won't be able to get to it. Once you remove the filter cap to unclog expect 2 gallons of water to rush out all over the floor so have a shop vac ready. It's a horrible design and will ruin your floor if it's not on concrete directly over a drain. The drain filter clogs completely every 2 load. Your clothe will come out covered in lint which is very difficult to remove and annoying. Would not recommend, and this product as it needs to be redesigned with the drain filter hole in a more accessible location along with an inverted cap so the water doesn't pour out on the floor. There is a drain catch tray that is useless as the edges stick up half an inch and quickly overflows. If your thinking about this product don't buy it unless you want thousands in damages. Not to mention using this washer is a 3 min procedure. They make a very simple process so difficult. If your clothe aren't dry you can't just use the dry cycle to finish them, the entire wash process begins again so have your clothe line ready as well. This unit has been such a headache and we'll end up going back to separate units.
If you must buy this unit because you think it will ease your life make sure you elevate it at least 2 feet off the floor with a huge water pan underneath to prevent damage while you unclog it. If the drain and lint filter system was better designed it has potential to be a great unit.
