    Hello,

    I am receiving a new flat for a long time, so I plan the equipment for it. At the initial stage, I thought of putting the washing machine in the closet in the hallway, so as not to clutter the bathroom, which is only 4.5m. However, my mother ordered to buy a dryer. And here there are several options. Either the washing machine will stay in the wardrobe and clutter the bathroom but the dryer (here I would choose the smallest one that is 45cm deep candy) or I could put a washer-dryer in the closet. Unfortunately, I read mixed opinions about the latter. It is known that the drying capacity is smaller so you need to split the laundry into two, but it is better to load less in a normal dryer so that it is not crumpled.

    And here the questions arise whether such washer-dryers even make sense? And whether they are suitable for closing them in a closet. The first thing I'm worried about is whether it won't heat up the wardrobe too much, where there will also be clothes etc. And the second is the issue of noise during drying, although I still want to install soundproofing mats in the wardrobe.

    I liked several washer-dryers, among others. LG or Samsung.

    It also adds a photo of the wardrobe design. I am asking for opinions

    LG are very good. I have ariston innex, Bosch is good. Remember that the washer condenser dryer is exhaust air and damages clothes more, but the exhaust air must have a hot air outlet, preferably outside.
    I will say that in the winter you will definitely use a washer dryer. I'm drying outside now. So buy a washer dryer. For housing is the only reasonable option. Condensation so that you don't have a problem with escaping hot air.

    I like this washer-dryer https://www.euro.com.pl/pralko-suszarki/samsung-wd90j6a10ax.bhtml has a fairly large input and low water consumption.
    Or this LG https://www.euro.com.pl/pralko-suszarki/lg-f4j7fh1w.bhtml but here the water consumption increased twice.
    So there will be no problem with heat or noise in a closed wardrobe?

    If I had to take a separate dryer, this is only the option

    Do you think it would heat up the bathroom so much?

    You have a condensation dryer in the washer dryer unless you care about washing and drying at the same time, and if you don't take one device.

    In the hall you have relatively poor air exchange. And what will be in the closed wardrobe? These are equipment intended for wet rooms (laundry, bathroom). After washing, the washing machine must be open to remove moisture. Dryer the same. Does the washer-dryer have a closed moisture circuit during drying? If not, then water from the moisture will flow down the walls. These are also some smells over the years. This is also noise at work, have you ever heard the dryer work? After a few years from this wardrobe will be ashes. Have you seen this solution anywhere? The idea of nonsense, but it's your apartment.

    Modern equipment is quiet and almost vibration-free. If condensation does not have any moisture only after opening the door normal evaporation of water. The fact is that it's better as if it stood in a room with a window.

    This window is useful to look through it. Ventilation is needed here. Do you have a dryer? Do you know how a condenser dryer works? Have you tried to put your child to sleep or watch TV in almost the same room?

    Buddy boruta. It's how, then, people have washing machines in their wardrobes, or in the UK I see very popular washing machines or washer dryers under the kitchen counter. After all, there are full-scale washers and washers-dryers. Does furniture also rot?

    Of course, the kitchen can be. However, this is not the same as a wardrobe and you do not have a built-in washing machine in your plan? Have you seen the built-in dryer? In the kitchen, you must have a ventilation shaft for gravity ventilation, as well as usually mechanical ventilation using a hood. I am not sure if a washing machine in the kitchen is currently a popular solution (unless blockhouses and condominiums), because built-in models are like medicine. A dryer, if not equipped with a heat pump, can generate a lot of moisture, more and more as it goes down and produces a lot of heat outside.

    That's why I'm just thinking about putting a washing machine or washer / dryer in the closet. Certainly not the dryer itself. At the top of the wardrobe there will also be ventilation holes, because I will put the wardrobe in a place where there was to be a separate toilet. So if I have to, I could use it somehow. Although there will be shelves above the washing machine, there will be some air circulation there and in case you probably could even pull the pipe from the bottom of the cabinet up if necessary.

    The washing machine itself is not afraid to put it there. Just asking for a washer dryer.

    In fact, I would like to know the answer to the question of whether the washer dryer matches a separate washer and dryer. Because the reviews are very mixed, but many of them are about old devices. So I'd like to hear the opinions of washer-dryer users.

    In my opinion no. Even if the capacity itself is different, e.g. washing, we can throw 9kg, but you can only dry 5-6kg at a time. Of course, if there is no room for a separate dryer and washing machine, then the 2in1 solution will also work.

    I wrote before I have a washing machine dryer indesit innex xwde861480. I know how a condenser dryer works. There is no heat outside except from the door glass, steam, moisture,

    You're right. Nothing rots. Like an exhaust dryer, the pipe must be led outside because in fact the use of an external condenser is a massacre.

    This is why the condenser dryer keeps everything in the tank and the pump pumps everything into the channel. Yes, the indesit washer dryer. Not moisture, no.

    Buy a washer dryer and you'll be satisfied. Exhaust air is better but the pipe must be outside. Anyway, in the second closet you can put on a heat pump as suggested by a colleague. I have a flat in the block and a washer dryer in the kitchen and there is no ventilation, only a window.

    The only option is a washing machine in the closet and then possibly a dryer in the bathroom https://www.euro.com.pl/suszarki/candy-cs4-h7a1de-s.bhtml
    The smallest it is.

    The second option is a washer dryer in the closet. If the drought is just as good as the separate dryers and does not damage clothes, I think I will choose the 2 in 1 option. I think that the drying capacity of 6kg is enough, I will do less washing.
    The only thing I'm afraid of is I read a lot of comments that clothes stink gum after such a 2in1.

    I am considering Samsung or LG with invert drum.

    Clothes don't smell anything. The difference is in the dryer - condenser or exhaust dryer. The first one heats the clothes in the drum and pumps out the evaporated water by spinning. The latter blows with hot air which is then blown out as moisture and steam.

    And what about the filly from drying clothes after drying? There is a filter in separate driers, and what does it look like in yours?
