Haier XQG65-11SU
Date Published: 11/12/08Haier, with its all-in-one washer/dryer combination, has cracked open the budget-priced market for this type of machine. Priced hundreds below any product even remotely similar, the XQG65-11SU is the perfect laundry solution for those living on tight budgets and in even tighter quarters. This little miracle washes and then dries clothing and linens all in the same tub. Never again will wet laundry require moving from machine to machine. Unlike most clothes dryers, this model uses regular household electricity (115 volts), eliminating the need for a special (240-volt) dryer outlet. Ventilation to the outside of the building is also not required, as this machine uses a condensation system. Likewise, a washer hook-up is not necessary because the unit will hook up to a sink. Fairly easy to move about, this machine is conveniently mounted on casters. While not a full-size machine, it is one of the largest of its type and can accommodate 14.3 pounds of laundry. Of course, anything with this many benefits has at least one drawback. In this case, it is the condensation-type dryer. These dryers take an incredibly long time to dry clothes. The fact that outside ventilation is not used vastly increases the time it takes to eliminate the water from the clothing. On the other hand, given some patience, the laundry can be finally completed without leaving the building, even in an apartment that lacks the space and hook-ups needed for full-size laundry pair. Look for this product in urban areas and from online suppliers. Pro: does not require 240 volt service, laundry hook-up, or outside ventilation, has stainless steel tub Con: capacity is on the small side, drying is slow For More Information: Haier America www.haieramerica.com 1-888-76-Haier
