Portable Washer & Dryer?

Well, here is what I was thinking so far.

This little washing machine seems to have OK reviews. It does require you to manually fill it with water but it is electric. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GM942C/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

The reviews of similar dryers are not great so I think I'll be skipping that. I did find a spin dryer with good reviews. You put some clothes in the dryer and it spins them really fast to get more water out of the clothes. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002GEDBIG/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00

Lastly, I am looking at a drying rack to keep in the spare bedroom. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00383O2UU/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00

When we lived in an apartment we bought a portable washer and a portable dryer. They worked very well - in fact more than 25 years later we still have the dryer in our basement (just in case the house dryer breaks). The washer did not last that long, but it lasted long enough. Both were small units and on wheels. The washer used a hose that connected to the kitchen sink faucet and drained into the kitchen sink(make sure you put a drain screen on that hose). Both plugged into regular house outlets. They were more than enough to wash and dry the weekly laundry for the two of us. And in the winter when the dryer was running you could turn down the thermostat in the room because it gave off plenty of heat.

Thanks, I saw that but I'm not sure how I feel about the manual hand crank. I saw some small machines that weren't priced too much more that were actually electric. Also, the legs on that didn't seem to be stable enough.

I googled "apartment washers/dryers" but didn't see any like I used to have. Small electric dryer mounted on a stand and a washer on wheels that stored under the dryer when not in use and rolled to the kitchen sink and attached to the faucet for washing. That way, the wash water and rinse water was pumped into the sink, but it tied up the kitchen faucet.
I continued to use them after I moved into my sticks and bricks with its own laundry room. I eventually replaced them with a regular washer and a dryer that ran on 240V. The apartment W/D ran on a 120V outlet and it took a long time to dry a load.

I've been looking at amazon and found a bunch of them but I'm sure there are some RV'ers that use these type of machines at the CG's.
