Thanks for helping tips.

Which front loading washer made today lets me use the most water for washing...?

For me, it would be a no-brainer if I have the height space is available, I would definitely get the wash tower over the combo. Of course keep in mind that you need the 240 V plug..

Still wishing I had the money for wash combo. Would like two actually.

Looks like LG has just released its stand-alone 7.8 cf mega capacity dryer with dual inverter heat pump technology, DLHC5502B. I just bought the WashCombo today, so I’ll see how it goes. I could always buy the stand-alone heat pump dryer to go with it (since they are a matching pair) if I find it does not fit my needs as just the one appliance.

Great! Thanks for this video. Seems the WashTower is the obvious better choice is one has the vertical space and the availability of a 240V electric socket for its dryer, mainly for the faster drying times, ability to wash & dry 2 loads, and the more proven lint removal. One error in the video that should be corrected… the WKHC202HBA WashTower with heat pump dryer has a 4.5cf washer, which is smaller than the WashCombo’s 5.0cf, not the same. This is, incidentally, why the WashTower is not as deep as the WashCombo. LG makes a non-heat-pump WashTower that does have a 5.0cf washer, which is the same overall depth as the WashCombo, but only in traditional electric and gas dryer configurations, not heat pump. I’m also not so sure your note about needing 4” behind it is really true. All LG washers say that (even the non heat pump ones), but I’ve used them trouble free for years with little to no space behind them and the rear wall; it’s really just a matter of tidy cable and hose management. The 4” recommendation is really just that-a recommendation so buyers plan enough space behind the unit for the water hoses, drain hoses, etc., without crushing them carelessly like many do when they push a machine back inside a tight space. The really weird thing I find about the WKHC202HBA WashTower is that it requires BOTH a 15A 120V plug for its washer AND a 240V 30A plug for its heat pump dryer, yet the specs say its heat pump dryer only pulls 4.1A at 240V of electricity, which is FAR below the capacity of a 240V 30A circuit to deliver. In fact, 4.1A at 240V is the same as 8.2A at 120V (V x A = power, or watts), so it seems LG certainly COULD have designed the WashTower with Heat Pump dryer to use only a single 120V plug, just like the WashCombo. Or, if it might have exceeded 15A at 120V to run both the washer and its dryer simultaneously, then maybe two 120V plugs instead of one of each. Maybe it was just a matter of having reused the existing design and components of the standard electric WashTower model to save engineering costs? Or, come to think of it, maybe the problem would be that if they had used two 120V plugs then people would just have plugged them into 2 outlets on the same receptacle (circuit), which would effectively be the same as using just one 120V plug anyway? Using one of each voltage effectively forces people to have two separate circuits, I suppose. And while maybe it may have worked to require a single 120V 20A circuit, in reality, few homes actually have 20A circuits with the correct 12-gauge wiring and 20A-rated 120V outlets to do that right anyway. Not to belabor the point, but obviously one could actually use a 240V 20A circuit for the heat pump dryer part of the WashTower, since it pulls far less power than that and would never trip a 20A breaker or overheat a 12-gauge wire for such a circuit. If I were guessing again what LG may have been thinking by saying you should use a 30A circuit is that virtually all other 240V appliances that might use such an outlet DO require a 30A circuit, so maybe it’s just best/simplest to say that’s what’s required so as to help prevent someone from putting in wiring and circuit breakers too small for some other appliances one might eventually install in the same spot. Anyway, thanks again for the video. If I get one, and if I have the space, it would definitely be the WashTower and I would only consider the WashCombo now if I had to get it physically into a shorter space.

How about getting both

I hope you can review the new Samsung all-in-one washer/dryer combo soon. Just released in the US this month.

Are you able to review the WKHC252HBA newer washtower w/ heat pump? Would be curious how this compares to the WKHC202HBA.

can we use dryer alone if we need

Just yesterday we ordered the WashTower model WKEX300HBA, which is supposed to have their "ezDispense" feature holding enough liquid soap for 18 loads. We were afraid to order the heat-pump dryer due to the problems with the WashCombo model. Is the lint problem corrected/eliminated with the WashTower heat-pump dryer? Can the heat-pump dryer be used with the washer with ezDispense? I don't think their are interchangeable between the units due to the lint/water trap. My preference is the ezDispense over the heat-pump model.

Hmmm 🤔 neither one of them I prefer the top loaders with an agitator 👊🏻👍

The main problem is when the dryer goes out or the washer goes out it’s not usable. I’ll stick with my speed queen. Thanks.
