@@cabanastateofmind Please do another update? is it still going?

I’m about to purchase the Mastertech version so thank you for this!

@Karishma Samaroo it is always around that, if you want your clothes to be in your size you cannot push it,

Is it a steam dryer?

@@Kenishiadid you end up getting it? how has it been?

@@katriannam Yes, I got it just shy of 3 years ago and I love it! It has a smaller cabin than most standard front load machines so the most I’ve ever washed in it at any single time is my duvet insert/comforter and I’ve had no issues doing that, even though it’s a pretty snug fit. My standard wash/dry load consists of approximately 5-6 bath towels and I’m able to wash and dry them with ease. I don’t use the 1 hour wash/dry cycle because it only washes for 5-10 mins and then begins the dry cycle. I personally like to wash my laundry longer. In terms of drying, I put it on the standard “dry only” setting that lasts for 5h 39m, and the sensor usually decreases the drying time to about half or a third of that time depending on the size of the load. I also like that the machine heats up the water on its own so I didn’t need to install any additional pipes. It also does great even if the water pressure is low! Major downsides: It gets a bit loud when spinning/drying and the rubber seal around the opening tends to pick up a lot of lint after drying towels (this doesn’t happen with regular laundry) so you’ll need to clean that part pretty consistently. I use old dryer sheets or a wet microfiber cloth to scrape the lint off the seal as well as inside the crevice. I hope this was helpful! Shoot me any other questions you have and I’ll be more than happy to answer.

Glad you like yours! Mine is still going strong, too.

So glad you like it, Desney!

I've got the bigger 10kg/7kg washer drier version. Anyone who reads this buy another machine please! it has a major drying flaw and if you use it daily for drying it will slowly get wetter and wetter and just after a year stop drying at all. it has no lint filter so the lint ends up clogging the fan which then overheats the first thermostat after it. You can reset it by taking the top lid off and there is a button between the connection on the thermostat. I did but it still wasn't drying very good at all. I Pulled the fan out to inspect and the blades where caked full of lint. I Would not buy one again.

Can you tell me what does the - sun ☀️ and + sun mean when drying ??

@@supernelsonkiwi thanks for this feedback. I was almost about to buy the same 10kg/7kg model. Guess I'll probably go with LG then

@@Nosyagent hi, I've had my first one replaced just after 1 Yr it had a motherboard fault in the end and just threw error codes and did not run, my new replacement one after a while when the lint built up I would clean it, but then the fan would not run correctly and was too slow and would over heat the unit and pop the resettable fuses inside the unit. I got another fan from another unit which the fan spin speed is faster than the standard one it now sound like a little jet but it actually dries way way better and I've never had to clean the lint of the fan yet and the clothes come out bone dry not that slight damp feeling.

Exactly! It's not perfect but it works for me.

I also read that slower washing \ heating the water saves on your electric bill

​@@beautyofthailand7393 it saves A LOT I'm looking for a new one but my Samsung doesn't use much

Using the short cycle and high speed spin I was able to sort and hang up most of the items that were damp dry thus leaving the towels to the dry cycle. I can't remember spending more than 45 minutes doing a load both wash and dry. The exceptions are dirty, dirty items that need full or Heavy duty cycle.

going to try this, thanks!

That's a great option! This definitely doesn't compare to a "standard" dryer but it's convenient for the size and the hookups we have (we do not have hookups for a standard in our house, would've had to have them put in)

LOL. Now if I could only help them adopt the European standards for wine and cheese we'd be making real strides...

Cabana State Of Mind manchego vino dulce picos y aztunas

In Argentina we used the same system and I miss a lot

I'm American, and my problem was that I had no idea these existed! My apartment laundry mat is always "out of order", so anything is an upgrade. I always thought my country was super close minded, but I guess we all are if you think that some of us dont know what it's like to have nothing. I was lucky, many have it at lot worse then I did.

B4Now Humans are greedy. Americans have the money and other countries want it...that’s envy! 😉

Mine is not zip tied or kinked like you mentioned, unfortunately. I think the long dry time is just part of the deal with these kinds of washer/dryers.

Glad it was helpful!

Awesome! Thanks, Jonathan. Glad you found it useful.

Yes, it's a steam dryer so the water will be running when the dry cycle is on. I don't care for dryer sheets so I don't use them, but you could always throw one in between the wash and dry cycles. The cycles don't run back to back, you have to start each one separately, so there's an opportunity to put a dryer sheet in or take out any clothes you don't want to shrink.

Where is the lint filter ?

That little door on the front near the bottom. Use a pan under it and turn it counter clockwise to take it out and clean it. But other then that you’ll have to read or find the directions online on how to take the top of machine off every few months to clean any lint inside it . That’s what I read but I won’t be able to do it without help myself so that’s going be a pain!

It's been almost two years and still running great! You do have to be sure to clean the lint out regularly - I learned that makes the dry cycle go much faster.

Typically it would connect to the normal hookups for a regular washer and dryer, the ones that kind of look like a hose spigot. But I hear this model can also be used with your kitchen sink or bathtub water hookups, you will probably need a special connector. Also it does need a way to drain, so you could run the drain hose into the sink/tub. You do NOT need to have a hole for an external vent, that is one of the conveniences of this machine.

How are you liking your tiny home after 3yrs? I plan to buy a 25ft RV for full-time living in September, so I'll be in a small space as well, but mine will have wheels lol.

Thanks for watching, Mj. I am still THRILLED to not be going to the laundromat! XD

Cabana State Of Mind Amen to that!🙏

Cabana State Of Mind I was looking for the drain hose near the filter on the lower right. I had an LG unit before and it had the little hose to drain water... yours didn't come with one right?

Yes it did come with a hose! It was already attached to the back of the unit and I just had to stick it down into the existing drain in the floor.

So do you have to have connections for water or can you use a tube in the shower like other portibles?

Haha, I totally understand that! It takes a while but you get used to it. I would love to use a clothesline but doesn't work so well when it gets down into the 10's and 20's :D have a great day!

I have one and it does not take 3 hours to dry i promise . I did a small load and dried 45 min

It's definitely not for everyone, especially if there are kiddos in the mix!

It's ventless. This means in cold areas (like alaska) you do not have to heat the incoming air that is then ejected out of the exhaust witht the vapor.

The one I bought was $800, but it looks like that exact model is no longer available. Here's the most similar one I can find: amzn.to/316FiDd . I also saw one online from Lowe's by Haier for around $1000 and that would probably come with free delivery.

also, if you're able to spend a bit more, LG makes a really nice one for about $1,700. That is the one I would have gotten if we had a little more in our budget for it!

@@cabanastateofmind I didn't even know you could get bush outside the UK but that's daylight robbery. The same machine you have costs £279.99

£279.99 in UK

Unfortunately we moved 2.5 years ago and left this unit behind, so I can’t say whether it’s still in action. HOWEVER one thing I would say is in hindsight, I probably would have paid more for the LG version, which I am guessing comes with better support. When we did have an issue with this unit (the control board got zapped and needed to be replaced) it was so difficult to get in touch with anyone from the company because they’re not based in the US. Just something to think about depending on where you’re located

That is disappointing! Sorry to hear your experience went that way. I've heard great things about the LG!

Cabana State Of Mind that’s what we replaced it with and could not be happier. No comparison in the quality. We were trying to save money with the Midea and, as the saying goes, “you get what you pay for “. Thank you for your comment. BTW, we bought the LG thru COSTCO. Saved some money and the quality of the delivery was commendable. Hauled off the Midea and set up the KG. Not easy in a Motor Home. More than paid for several years’ membership.

I didn't know that! Thank you so much, I'll be sure to try it.

you're right! I tried this and it works. Thanks!

You're welcome! Glad you found it helpful :)

I know right?

Have you cleaned the lint out of the fan and drain tub? It will help significantly with dry time! I am going to make a video soon showing how to do this, but I will try to describe it here... you remove the top of the machine via two small screws on the backside. From there you will see a round motor attached to a fan, and attached to that is a big white plastic container or tub. You can access the inside of these via the screws surrounding the fan. Once you open this up you will likely find a TON of lint! When you clean it out regularly it helps keep the dry time minimal.

Yes, it does! Almost like it drains several times mid cycle.

That is because it uses water from the inlet to cool the condenser unit. Sometimes up to 50 litres! I was thinking of buying a washer dryer unit but changed my mind after finding that out. The strange thing is, if you buy a condenser dryer on it's own it's an air-cooled unit.... Really can't understand why this wasn't the standard in washer/dryer units.

It washes the clothes really well! I'm not sure about the water covering the clothes. It seems more like it sprays around while they're in there. Honestly I've never looked that closely but I've never had a problem with them never coming out not clean!

Their is no water settings for the water level you get one level water wash just don’t over load the one thing I do not like about this washer

Yes. The machine stops after washing and you have to tell it which dry cycle you want to use, then start the dryer. So you could take out clothes and hang them then. You just can't stop to take clothes out halfway through the dry cycle. Thanks for watching!

Yep! It's a combination washer and dryer. You don't have to unload, but with this model you do have to press a button to start the dry cycle. At first I thought this was annoying but now I like that I have the option to take things out that I don't want to shrink, etc. My electricity bill did not seem to be impacted in any way by this machine.

The throw it in the trash program

Hi Christopher! I do not find that the humidity increases in the room. This is the only washer/dryer we have ever had since we moved to New York (were in FL previously), so I don't have much to compare the electric bill against. I'm not sure about the gas aspect, but our hot water is gas heated so I think that's where the majority of the heat comes from. This isn't like a normal dryer where it heats up electrically. Some other commenters have explained better how it works, but it's the steam & evaporation that does the drying, from what I understand.

@@cabanastateofmind Ah Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. Very helpful. So you guys use this washer as your primary machine? If so how many people in the family depend on it? I understand that all in one washer/dryers are not typically recommended by the manufactures for family usage in a home but usually for a single person or maybe two in a mobile home or camper. What's your thoughts on this?

@@christopherfcunha Yep! just my husband and I. I would probably not recommend as the primary machine for a family larger than a couple or maybe with one child. You'd be running it constantly!

@@cabanastateofmind I gotcha! Thank you again for the very useful information.

Washing cycle. FC lots of beeping. Stoped working still locked wont finish cycle

Fireeeeee 🔥 📛

It’s at the bottom of the machine! Bottom right on mine

So, we moved out of that house and left the w/d behind about a year and a half ago. Our new place has a normal washer and dryer and I have to say, they are much more convenient (faster!!!). I forget how the ventless dryer works exactly but it's more effective than you might think. Clothes can feel a bit "damp" when they first come out because of the humidity in there but if you shake them out, hang them or lay them out they're dry in a few minutes.

Great! I am so glad you found it helpful.

Hi Peter! The only one of these that I have seen that advertises a combo wash/dry cycle, meaning you don't have to manually press the dry button after the wash cycle ends, is this LG one: amzn.to/2m1STw5 if money weren't a factor that's the one I would have gotten but the one I have was a few hundred bucks cheaper.

You can set a timer on my magic chef combo washer/dryer I’ve not tried it yet sense i haven’t had to. you can read the manual online about that to see more about setting a timer on one. Just an 💡

Yep, that's the starting time (4 hours, 5 minutes) for how long it will take to dry. The lowest setting on mine starts at 3:30. BUT it doesn't usually actually take that long. The time will drop based on how fast it's drying. Mine usually takes around 2-2.5 hours to dry a load. Still a long time but not quite as bad as four hours!

It does but I only put about 4 large towels at a time. Any more and it might not dry all the way.

Thank-you so much!!!! =)

Hi Fran, you cannot do a combo wash and dry cycle, at least on the unit I have here. You have to first run your selected wash cycle, wait for it to end, then start the dry cycle.

Hi. You can try to use "My cycle" program to setup wash+dry combo. Select any program you need marked with blue color on the left side from knob, then add drying cycle to wash by pressing Dry Level button. To store the program, press and hold "My cycle" button.

Yes! It's still working great. I have read online that you can hook it to the faucet, but I'm not you could do that right out of the box. I think you might need a connector piece or something. Also it needs a way to drain so a bathtub might be easier than a sink.

Yes, it's still running great!

I have read reviews from people who said they hooked it up to the kitchen sink or bathtub, however I'm not familiar with how that setup works.

With the use of some optional accessories, such as a Y-connector and faucet adapter, a washer dryer combo can be easily connected to your kitchen, bathroom or any other sink. This allows you to use it just about anywhere, without the need for separate water connections.

I actually don't use dryer sheets (sensitive to the smell) but I think if you were going to use them that would be the way to do it.

If you put a teaspoon of vinegar with any essential scent you want into the rinse aid section (if there is one) it works like a fabric softener but during the wash session instead of the dry session.

Hi Mikki! I have washed my queen size comforter once in it but I had to STUFF it in and I was worried the whole time it would break the machine so now I take it to the laundromat :) . I do wash duvet covers in it with no problem.

@@cabanastateofmind Thank you! I have a queen comforter set as well. Its super cold where I live. I have been trying to avoid the laundry mat at all costs. I live in a studio apartment without washer/dryer connection this would be perfect for me.

​@@MsMikkiG11 ugh I hate the laundromat so much too! They make them larger than this unit - I got one of the smallest ones there is. Just a little larger and you'd be good to go. Mine is 2.7 cubic feet, I think LG makes one that is over 4 cubic feet!

Mind worked for various years the thing was the electricity outlet it was a bad wiring and it's having problems with high heat. But wasn't the dryer fault.

Not very well. I squeezed our queen size comforter into there once but I was worried it was going to break the machine the whole time. You could easily fit a duvet cover, though. I'm about to swap out our comforter for a duvet for this reason.

@@cabanastateofmind Have toy since become more comfortable with queen-size comforters in it, or still caution against it? Can it handle a queen size cotton blanket? PS: What's a duvet cover, LOL ? Thanks

Hi, I have no affiliation with this company and am not sure if they offer a warranty. Sorry!

That is great to hear!
