Best Compact Washer / Dryer Stackable

Bijel Doshi
10 år siden
Hi Houzz Community - I have a small cabinet in my kitchen that houses my now dead washer dryer. The condo came with one of those old-school "laundry center" units that is compact but makes me feel like I'm living with the Brady Bunch. We'd like to replace with a stackable pair, but our dilemma is that our cabinet is only 29" deep. If I leave a few inches for venting, I need a unit that is only 26" deep...I can't really find ANY. That's where you come in, any recs on the best compact units? Ideally we want a gas dryer, but I've found the smaller units are only electric. We REALLY don't want to take the cabinet doors off because if the units stick out we think it takes away from the kitchen. ANY help is much appreciated!

    I know this is an old question, but I thought I would add a comment for anyone else that has a problem with a shallow laundry closet. This might not work for everyone, but if you own your home, don't have to deal with condo restrictions and live in a fairly temperate climate I bought an in the wall vent system to gain precious inches. http://www.dryerbox.com It worked well for my situation and I'm planning on adding a sturdier wood frame to the outside of the closet opening to hang the closet doors from to gain that final half inch for the closet door to close. The washer/dryer sit inside the foot print of the closet, it's the appliance curved door that causes my closet door to not fit. I would say I will have gained about 3" overall.

      Asko make some of the smallest laundry pieces I know of. W6424 is a 23 7/8 deep washer and matching dryers are available. They are stackable as well. I will say that these pieces are not inexpensive. They are a European made product. Please make sure that they are serviceable in your area.

      I hope this helps!

      Look for apartment models. Sometimes you can order them from places like Sears, even if the only things on display in the store are gargantuan. (I've lived in Europe for 2 decades and appliances are a lot smaller. One bedroom apartments designed for singles in America have bigger dishwashers than the family size in Europe).

      If you don't live in a humid place, you can live without a dryer. I do. In the winter, the dry air dries my clothes and in the summer, I hang them outside. Occasionally, a warm, rainy week in late spring or early fall challenges me, but I put off buying a dryer years ago and realized I could live quite well without it. It saves a lot of electricity. You want to invest in a decent clothes line, which is probably not what you will find in the average American store.

      There are some 27 inch deep laundry centers on http://www.ajmadison.com/b.php/Laundry+Centers/N~50

      Try removing your current laundry center, measure it, and see what the connections are like behind it.

      I had same one replaced many years ago with Kenmore from Sears it's a front loader washer. It's great.

      I didn't have to replace doors. It fits perfect. The dryer is electric but drys every thing In less than 20 mins. It's a star energy, so got tax credit on taxes.

      I have a tiny Bosch, and had a tiny Danby stacking set in that size. The Bosch is from their Axxis line; different sizes in that line. We have the smallest.

      There is nothing like sleeping on line-dried sheets! If you have high ceilings, you can do a drying rack on a pulley system and let the warm air-flow to the ceiling dry for you on icy winter days.

      I chose a stackable front loading kenmore for my 760 sq ft home. I also have it in my kitchen. I chose this set up thinking I'd rather replace one appliance vs two if one broke down.

      I have the Blomberg washer and heat pump dryer and my wife loves it. I find that the European washers are less harsh on clothes. This heat pump dryer may take a little longer to dry but the clothes come out dry (not hot) and there is a lot less lint in the filter.
