While many people look at their RV as just a place to rest their head at night, you can actually turn your RV into a pretty nice living space with a few easy upgrades. One upgrade that will make a big difference in the cleanliness of your RV is a washer dryer combo as listed above. Not to be confused with a “stackable washer dryer”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>How to Choose the Best Washer and Dryer for Your RV<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThere are many washing and drying solutions that can be fitted and used in your RV, and each has many options available. They also have their own pros and cons, but in our opinion the combination washer dryers offer the best value. Here\u2019s a look at the different types of RV laundry appliances, as well as the advantages to using a combination unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>RV Washers and Dryers: An Overview<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThere are three basic types of washers and dryers you can use to do laundry in your RV: stackables, portables, and combos. Let\u2019s take a look at how each works, and the pros and cons for each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Stackable Washer Dryers<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThese are the standard RV electric washers and dryers that come preinstalled in many larger Class C and Class A RVs. The washing machine is on the bottom with the dryer mounted above it. These are not dissimilar to the washers and dryers you find in many hotels and timeshares. The drawback to them is that unless your RV already has a custom space and hookups, you are going to have to do some fitting and shifting to make them fit. They tend to be on the larger size and occupy more space than the other types of RV washers and dryers though. Conversely, the dryers are nearly always vented, allowing them to dry laundry faster than RV specific models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>

For washers, some models can even be operated manually with a foot pedal. They are the smallest of laundry machines available, and they are also the easiest to store when not in use. As far as portable dryers are concerned, these are typically non-vented and aren\u2019t particularly energy efficient. They also tend to be non-vented, so they won\u2019t humidify the air in your RV as much as a vented model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>

Additionally, most combo units can automatically shift from wash to dry mode without any effort on your part, allowing you to set and forget. These washer dryers can also be installed with exterior dryer vents for faster drying, too. Washer dryer combos are by far the most popular choice for RV owners who take extended trips throughout the year and for full-timers who depend on them to get their weekly washing done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>
