The Whirlpool Duet System is one of the best washer and dryer combinations on the market. Not only is it able to handle a large amount of clothes in a short period of time, but it has some of the most advanced features of any washer and dryer combination on the market. It’s sanitary cycle eliminates 99.9% of all household bacteria on clothes. That is a great feature for anyone who has young kids in their household! It also eliminates the need to treat stains as it attacks them at its root. The duet system is not cheap however. The washer by itself costs around $1,700.
LG electronics has a great washer and dryers combination that is beyond belief. It actually does all the washing and drying in the same machine. While you might be shocked that it can do this, it is possible! The LG WM3431H does have a few features that make it less appealing. While it can do both washing and drying inside the same machine, it takes as long as six hours to go through the entire cycle. The great features of the LG washer and dryer all in one do come at a steep price, nearly $1,400.
Frigidaire offers a more affordable option for people who do not want to pay the high prices of premier brands. Model FLEB8200DS costs around $1,000 as a pair and has a capacity of 3 cubic feet. This is the perfect size for a single load of a family of four. There are plenty of different spin speeds and other bells and whistles that are on this model. Unlike many other washers, you do not need to insert fabric softener or detergent into your load! The washer does it for you.
FEX831FS is another great Frigidaire model that is a stacked washer and dryer combo. It is one of the lowest cost stacked combo units out there, costing around $750. This unit is one of the best for energy efficiency, however, it does not offer as large of load sizes as some of the other combo’s we have reviewed. This model is great for a single person, or a couple who are living in their first home. You also do not need to worry about the power bill or water bill when you are doing laundry, this model uses the least possible to clean your clothes!
