We were doing up our house absolutely uptodate so only the best is what we looked at. SInce the new flats do not have facility for drying, we thought the washing machine with dryer would be ideal. It costs a BOMB. And the delivery schedule drove us mad.
Finally we got it, the technician comes and tells us :this is the door, this is where the soap goes, rest you read the manual. Bye!! It takes 4 hours to dry half a machine load of clothes and then too they are really badlly crumpled. Even in dry the clothes are damp. The other options are complicated and most often the clothes and dripping after the cycle is complete. Luckily we have balconies and plenty of sun, so clothes dry all day. After spending so much, half clothes are washed by maid and the other half drip dry in the sun.
All elastic and edges get severely damaged in the machine. Would not advise for middle class. Only for those with money to throw away. There is only one model in this and most show rooms do not have it to show!! Understandable..
