What's better: a washer-dryer combo or separate washer and dryer units? Any brand recommendations? Maybe a specific model? Space is limited in my apartment, so putting it in a closet is an option. I already have a washer, and it's relatively new.

Separately. I had both. Separately is 100 times better. There are models that don't need to be connected to the sewer, so you can place the dryer anywhere.

Ekaterina And what's the difference without a drain? Is it even useful? Our clothes get so much lint and dust, does it help?

Ekaterina It's a lifesaver! We have a lot of pet hair, and it collects it all. You can skip the plumbing connection and just periodically drain the water from the container yourself. It's a really useful item, especially for towels and bedding – everything comes out so soft. Plus, it dries things quickly. 1.5 hours and your laundry is dry!

Ekaterina Does Sveta eat a lot? We need to too, you're buying weird things and they kick up so much dust...

We replaced our old washing machine six months ago with a 2-in-1 washer and dryer. We don't have space for a separate dryer in our apartment, so this was the solution. We're happy with it. We have a Haier brand.

I put it in the kitchen. Look, I'm washing a load and then drying it, and at the same time, I'm loading the washing machine again. If it's a 2-in-1, it's a long process. And my 2-in-1 can't fit blankets, but I dry blankets, throws, and pillows.

Of course, just separately. I have a De'Longhi Emilia

Better separately. We have a Candy dryer. It's stacked on top of the washing machine.

There's a special shelf to put the dryer on top of the washing machine. It's around 5,000 rubles on Ozon.

Ekaterina My 80 sq meter apartment uses 200-300 kWh per month. But I have a lot of appliances, and I wash and dry clothes almost every day. So, I don't think it's too much.

Just separate ones.
We have a Biryusa, with a shoe shelf and UV drying. It dries perfectly, doesn't need to be connected to the sewer, and we don't have much space either. It's actually in the bedroom.

We have a separate Haier dryer.

We have a Samsung 12kg washer and a Bosch dryer. One washes, the other dries. It's convenient to have them separate because I wash a lot, and we have a big family.

Ekaterina Get one with a heat pump, it uses less energy
