Any of you fine folks own one and have any insight on them. I like the idea of less real estate and no need to punch a hole in the side of the house for a dryer vent I've never looked at one. If there's no vent, where does the water go? For the dryer?

Why wouldn't it need a dryer vent? It IS a dryer too............. Ventless dryers. They are a thing and they are trash. They take hours to actually dry your clothes.

Any of you fine folks own one and have any insight on them. I like the idea of less real estate and no need to punch a hole in the side of the house for a dryer vent A relative had an apartment that came with a combo washer/dryer. It seemed to work okay, but the capacity was very low. The electric dryer had a vent, but it vented into the room which added a lot of heat and humidity into the room, some of which made it into the rest of the apartment. There was a lint trap at the end of the exhaust hose. I think they ended up using the community laundry room more than the combo. Indoor Lint Trap

I've had pretty good luck with them. I owned a rental house for 30 years and in that time I bought three stacks. Very few service calls.

we have an LG unit in our Miami condo. It does the wash and dry in one unit. Not a 'stackable'. The complete cycle does take longer, and the capacity is not that large, but it does a fine job getting the clothes clean and dry. I think it's going on 6 years now with zero issues.

I bought this GE unit for my mom about 10 years ago. It works great. Never had a problem with it. It does vent the dryer outside. It is a space saver if you are short on room.

I had one for the two years when I lived in Korea. One machine that did it all and did it well. I believe it was made by Samsung whose shipyard was where I worked.

Ventless dryers supposedly have a condenser that pulls water out of the hot air. I assume it goes down the drain.
