The LG combi was a choice we made before hull#1 was launched. 1400rpm, 9kg wash, 6kg dry. Having ploughed through countless bamboo nappies and dried them, it owes us nothing now that hull#2 is 5, yet still it keeps trucking on beautifully.[1] Don't use the dryer now though, just no need.
Our circumstances were that we didn't know and couldn't trust to having space and holes in houses we didn't own for the expected period of build and trials prior to (mostly) unspervised operation.
