Washer-Dryers

[User482]

I don't see the need for a tumble dryer, but if you really must, AEG & John Lewis both supply a model that is A-rated, and uses about half the electricity of a conventional machine.

It's a question of choice. Saying something's impossible is patently nonsense as most people, even today do it.

If you have the time and money for more cloths than you need,but with kids,most of us dont,so a dryer it is.

Isn't the problem that the drums in each machine do different things so a combi machine will always be a huge compromise?

The washer drum needs to be built like a brick outhouse to withstand the centripetal forces when spinning the load. For drying, you want a thin light drum, so there isn't a large thermal mass to heat up when drying the clothes.
