I've owned this appliance since Sept 2007. While the wash cycle is acceptable (small loads only), the dryer cycle is a total fiasco. If you have the option of a traditional stackable washer/dryer with vented dryer get that instead. The dryer part is terrible because clothes get super hot (and will shrink... there's NO temp selector: it's high heat or off) and yet will have many patches that are wet throughout. It takes several hours to complete a dry cycle, clothes come out extremely wrinkled, and they will have a funny odor (as if you had left a wet towel in your gym bag in the trunk of your car all day in the sun). The "ventless" dryer is a terrible invention. You're better off with a traditional dryer or using a clothes line. On top of that, my machine just broke (spin cycle drum is loose, and won't stop spinning), and customer service is next to nonexistent). Buyer beware!

I have used this Ariston washer/dryer combo for almost a year and I would have to say it is the most frustrating appliance I have ever had. Avoid any kind of ventless washer/dryer combo units if you can, even the best ones perform much poorly than conventional washer & dryers (Google search ventless washer/dryer combo units and you will find a ton of poor reviews). The savings in water and energy barely makes up for the ton of shortcomings of this product.
Some of the faults of this washer/dryer: - Capacity is very small, not ideal for families or those who wash a lot of clothes. - Eventhough front loading washers cleans better than top loading washers, this washer doesn't clean very well. I end up using more detergent (and spot clean before washing) and using multiple smaller loads which is even worse for the environment. - The softener and bleach dispenser does not dispense evenly nor entirely.
Most of the problems are due to the dryer function: - One load takes half a day if you use the dryer setting. - Your clothes will never be completely dry and the dryer leaves a very odd metallic/burnt-oily smell in your clothes. The smell is very nausiating. I tried to use the dryer multiple times hoping that the smell would go away because it was new, but it made no difference at all. - Your clothes will form a solid compact wrinkled mass when the dryer is used. The "Easy Iron" button makes no difference and is completely useless.
Even if you have to spend a ton of money running a vent line to be able to use a conventional washer and dryer, I highly recommend doing it. It is well worth it, you will save a lot of time, money in the long run, and most importantly your sanity!
