Summit Appliances Division SPWD1160C Front Load All-in-One Washer / Dryer

Pros: Worked when first installed. Has a good form factor for limited space.
Cons: Throw them away when anything breaks. No support, no help, no documentation, no nothing.

RUN, do not walk. DO NOT BUY A SUMMIT APPLIANCE. Do not let your friends buy Summit appliances. They do not care about the consumer after they are paid. They do not have any clue about customer service. They do not provide service of any kind except ...

Pros: none
Cons: Breaks within the first year of use

Please do not buy this product; its absolutely terrible. My condo developer has purchased hundreds of these for every unit. Almost every person who has purchased the home had to replace the summit washer/dryer combo. They break within the first year of usage and no one will service this product due to tremendous difficulties in finding and obtaining the appropriate parts.

In addition, this is a very small unit. The most that you could wash/dry in one load is two regular size towels. Anything that is larger than the aforementioned, will take approximately two hours to dry. Average drying time is about 80 minutes. Also, the combo washer/dryer does not have air flow outlet. So, all of the debris from your clothes, such as pet hair, fabric residue and the like, stays on your garments. They get stuck and after you are done with your laundry, you have to manually remove them one by one. Don't waist your money!

Pros: Good if your full loads are quite small.
Cons: The dryer sucks and is inefficient.

I bought this little-used though a part was broken, so went about trying to fix it myself. Found the problem, and, after a deal of runaround found a NY dealer that was helpful when they finally responded. Try Evelyn at 718.328.8700. They had a list of parts and are sending mine to me.
