Washer/dryer in a 2017 Forest River Hemisphere 356QB

Has anyone put a washer/dryer in a 2017 Forest River Hemisphere 356qb.

Looking for suggestions. We are selling our house this spring and will be living in our camper for the next 6 months. Wife is thinking that since we have washer hook-ups in the camper already that it would be nice to have a washer/dryer combo in the camper with two little boys. That way she could not have to go to the Laundromat as often.

How much space does one of the combo units take. Which ones should we stay away from? Any thoughts on this is most helpful.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts/suggestions.

we installed a WD stacked in our 2011 montana right after we bought it, for we wanted a WD for our cross country travels(6-12wks on the road).. We love them, and the dryer vents outside and takes about a hour, Jeans about 1.5hrs...We find that for the 2 of us we do the wash every third day....

We just put the vented combo unit in our rig. It actually vents inside the pin box. I bought a vent kit made for soffit venting. They are heavy though. My wife and I were barely able to muscle it in.

We had the combo in a 08 Eagle.

Now have the stackable in the North Point and wife likes it a lot better.

Put these under it if you have the room Shake Away

Exactly the model I plan to purchase and install in my FW in May.

They take up space, roughly 3x3x5. Instal is not hard. Do NOT get a ventless. Get a vented model and cut a hole outside. They are heavy, so you will need help getting it in place. Only major complaint, small loads. But hey, put in clothes and detergent, start it and walk away. Come back three hours later, take out clean clothes and repeat.
