To. To Vent or go Ventless

Please share with me your Splendide Combo w/ d experience.

If I had room...I would get separate pieces...but just not enough room. I must stay with a combo...
Going to cost $ 1000.00 to change from ventless to vented...

What do you think????

Any laundry tips will be appreciated, too!

Thanks...

We had a Splendide combo (vented) and loved it! My wife got used to the small loads and generally did a load every other day or so. From my research back when I bought it, vented dries much better/faster than ventless. Now if you already have a ventless model, I don't think it would be worth it to buy a vented one.

We had to give up our Spendide (it's in storage) when we downsized and discovered it wouldn't easily fit in our current RV. But I'm sure we'll use that little washer/dryer again sometime in the future!

Laundry tips: don't overload, don't use too much soap, Tide HE works fine. She only washed in cold water although hot water was available.

Mine is ventless due to front cap design and losing the whole bottom of closet.

I take out clothes before completely dry. It will wrinkle them good. Use it a lot when staying by myself. Finish drying on hangers.

Wow! $1000 to go vented? Is that what I saved by cutting the hole myself? I paid about $45.00 for the hole saw.
We have the stackable Splendide vented set. Love them! My wife uses some kind of dryer sheet and the clothes come out without wrinkles.
