I am usually a lurker on this board but I need some advice.
DH and I are looking for a new washing machine. Dryers are extremely rare here (we live in Southeast Asia), but I did see some 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer combo units. Has anyone ever used one? Any advice? Does the Dryer work?
Thanks.
Re: 2-in-1 Washer/Dryer
My sister is currently in S. Korea. This is what she posted recently on her blog-
-dryers are REALLY rare here: well, at least in the western definition. upon asking, i was told by my recruiter that all washers are actually combination washer/dryers, and i was told this by the delivery dude when he brought it to my apartment. NOPE. the ?dryer? cycle is actually more of a ?wringing? cycle. your clothes aren?t completely soaked, but they?re still too damp to put away. my dryer? a collapsible drying rack, a coat hanger, and the tall doors on my wardrobe. in the winter (and before I got a cat) i?d just sweep the floor, lay the clothes out flat, crank the ondol heating, and go to work. i can still turn the heat on, but not so hot as to cook the cat, and i certainly can?t leave them on the floor lest he destroy them. the complaint of nearly all non-military expats here: having to wash your clothes at least two days ahead of time to be sure they?re fully dry.
