FWIW - When I've used washer-drier combos I haven't enjoy the convenience of discovering my clothes are all damp. They just don't dry well, so the do-it-all-while-away convenience is only true maybe 50% of the time. The other 50% of time it backfires badly and you have to redo the wash.

Damp? Then it's a drying problem. I'll push on one button and check again 1h later. And I'll figure a way to double the drying time so that it doesn't happen again. So what if it's not as time-efficient as a separate drier? I don't care how long it takes during my sleep!

The absolute worst case of 1 button push is still worth the convenience of not having to move damp clothes.
