Splendide Model #AS66 VS Dryer and Model #AW 122 Washer
Stackables.... used 3 times a week since January 2007.
I broke the belt on the dryer because I washed rubber backed rugs in it.
(I'd done this for many many times... but just once the rug flipped the wrong way and the rug got wedged ... stopped the drum from turning...broke the belt.) I do not put rubber backed rugs in the dryer anymore.
Your water shut off is to just turn off your water pump and shut your water off at the outside source. No need for a water shut off behind the washer.
Front loader washing machines will smell. You have to learn how to deal with the grunge and mold that collects between the washer drum and the rubber gasket between the drum and the door.
2 pairs of Men's size 38 jeans.... and five t-shirts = 1 load
1 queen size micro fiber blanket or top sheet = 1 load
2 LARGE thick cotton bath towels, 2 quick dry towels, 3 hand towels, 6 wash cloths = 1 load
(Go into the automotive aisle and find the thickest and largest quick dry towels you can find... use them first to dry off and then follow with a cotton towel to finish drying.)
Micro fiber materials do not get heavy when they get wet. So when you toss them in the washing machine, they don't weigh the load down. I LOVE the micro fiber sheets, pillow cases and blankets year round. In the winter I put a wool blanket over the top to hold in the heat and an electric blanket in the mix just to heat blankets and the mattress all day long... and then I shut it off when we go to bed. We are in the NW in the winter.
I will NEVER wash my clothes in a laundry mat, if I can help it, ever again.
