Hi Audrey, Put quite simply, no no no to a combination washer dryer. If you have the space, one of each is far better. When I rented my two flats in Northampton, they both had combinations, and they both had to have the engineer fix them extensively, much to the utter horror of my landlords. I would recommend Bosch or Hotpoint in terms of general accessibility. Good luck, and I hope you get some good feedback.

I find that I need to buy a new washing machine and would like to know what others would recommend from a blind persons angle. I am also looking into washer dryers as an alternative and wonder about others experiences of these as well. Any recommendations and advice would be greatly appreciated.
