With an active lifestyle, we needed a machine that would just work!
Whether it is just one set of sweaty gym clothes or a sleeping bag after a weekend hike, this machine will do it for us.
Yes, we do full loads of whites, colors, delicates and jeans but for the most part we set a load to wash on delay at night to be finished in the morning.
Before we leave for work, we set another delayed load to be done before we come home at night to be folded.
It works when we don't need to wait for it.
We highly recommend this unit!

I live in a condo and this washer/dryer is perfect for condo living.
I just rolled it into my kitchen, hooked it up to the water line for the sink and plugged it into the regular electricity outlet. Most people complain about the overall length of the cycle, but I do not mind it at all. I mean, you put your laundry in and go about your life; you will not stand there for three hours waiting for it to finish.
I am a young professional and this machine/dryer fits my lifestyle perfectly.

We purchased the WM3988HWA after careful research of all available washer/dryer combos and have owned ours for over a year now.
We love this machine - it is quiet (we put it on a rubber mat to help absorb vibrations) and it cleans beautifully.
The direct drive shaft was a plus for me over belt driven drums. The drying time does take longer but this kind of machine requires approaching laundry altogether differently anyway - and it actually suits our very active lifestyles better. I can put in a good size load at night and be ready to fold it and put it away in the a.m.
The lint was somewhat of a problem for me until I found that a wet washcloth wiped around the rubber seal would clean all the residue lint easily. We have very little to no lint in our clothes now, and we own 2 large long-haired cats.
I keep the instruction book handy so I can read up each time about the various extra features one can add into the programmed washes. I would definitely recommend this product.
