We had a Splendide W/D in our last coach, and used it maybe 3 times in 15 years of ownership. The dryer took forever, and never totally dried the clothes. We now have an Asko washer and dryer, and we use them a lot. The dryer works on 220V, so it dries clothes as well as our home dryer. We don't use either one going down the road; we start a load when we get to the campground, and by the time we go to bed, it is all finished. The front-load washer could make a real mess if something happened on the road.
