Combo!
This looks nice but again it's a question of the service.

How could you go wrong? It's in "immaculate conception"...
Is that Mary I see in the glass door?

~I've never seen a vented WD Combo.
My Italian-made Comb-o-Matic in he 1980' was 110v and vented.
Still a finer mesh lint-screen and a 4" (100mm +/-) standard dryer hose connection would have been desireable.
When the only belt became stretched, and was slipping, the replacement was an ordnary vehicle fan-belt which did the trick very nicely.

part of it is made by the indesit company because of the drum for example.

Yes, it looks very much Indesit made but I never seen something like that in Italy, all the combos are condensor! I'd love to have a vented combo available around! (at 230V)
230 volt vented combo

Vented Combos in the EU
Creda and Bendix made vented combos in the 1980s. i saw one of the bendix ones outside a house and the creda one was looking through the instructions one night. Creda were pretty cool!

Stay away from the Splendeed!!!The company that makes them almost put Equator out of business by using the wrong voltage on their control buttons and the timer.It caused the machines exported here to catch on fire.Equator had to eat 3000 of them.They decided to build their own after that happened and are back on track.Stay away from Splendeed!!!!!
~I would be interested in how long a cycle takes at 115 Volts
10 pounds (4.5kg) Took me about 2 hours. The washer spun @ 900 R.P.M. I believe.
In retrospect that was overloaded for the dryer's abilites/size. LOTSA wrinkling!
My only real complaint with my combo was was the linting-up of the house; the filter was awful.

Chuck, The situation must have been corrected by now. There are no current news reports or appliance industry reports of any more combo fires. I do not remember hearing you sound alarms about this before you took your current job. It is a shame that they made that mistake, but it is history so maybe it is time to turn this loose. They would not still be in business if they had not corrected the problem, especially with the strong safety and health regulations of most European countries. While I wish you success in your job, I, frankly, would rather take my chances with something made in Europe than support China in their quest to take over the world although, given our government and business leaders, it's probably a futile fight at this point.
