The wife and I are cautiously looking for our full time rig. One option that we keep going back and forth on is the washer and dryer. For those of you that have one; is it worth it? Is it that much more convenient than taking the load to the laundromat? How many issues are there with having one in the rig?

We don't full time and it was a non-negotiable item for the wife. I thought it was a waste of money but I now will not be without them. Ours are separate units, Whirlpool.

I vote for yes, get a washer/dryer!!!!! Yes, it is worth it!! Lot of people talk about they would rather stay in their RV over a motel room, but yet would rather have the storage in an RV over a washer/dryer. You really don't know what someone has washed or dried in a laundry mat or RV Park washer/dryer. Kind of like sleeping in a motel bed to me. Have had ours for almost eleven years. Did have a problem with the washer several years ago and had some parts replaced. Was a pain being without it.

YES!!! Most definitely worth it.

I'd like to add a question to the OP's question: Are you all using RV-specific laundry machines or just compact household models?

We have a Kenmore stackable washer and dryer. We love it. Not fulltime but we never bring the towels, under ware and socks back in the house, we wash them before we break camp. nice
