Steve, duh. The moer water is required to heat, the longer it takes to recover, especially if you had a long shower or whirlpool tub to fill each use.
Where are the dryers???

I was asking about the charge per KWH for electricity, not the cost of the KWHs. LOL

I contacted Whirlpool in Australia as they have released a large capacity washer here and no matching dryer and they responded that because the dryer needed to be wired to a special plug or something there research returned that it wouldnot sell well for that reason which kinda sucks because you have such a large washer and no matching dryer. LG on the other hand here has a large capacity washer and dryer. And at a much better price than the Whirlpool. I opted for a new Miele set and would never go back the build quality of these machines are amazing.
Steve, time was Electric companies encourage more & more electric consumption. So, all-electric houses, as well as the more you used, your rate was on a declining sliding scale. So, bigger water heater, more KWH consumed.

I don't know about now but....
I don't know how it is now, but when I lived in France (in 1979 -1989) we had a Speed Queen W&D. (Solid Tub) It used European voltage and washed and dried just like ours in the states. Mark

Mark,
That is why I posted the Huebsch link, it's a Speed Queen gas dryer. I've seen American toploaders on camping sites several times. Don't remember the brands though, it was a long time ago.

Electric w/h gets you the lower rate because it's steady demand year-round (neither just in the summer (air conditioning) nor just in the winter (electric heat)
