We came upon this interesting product line from LG India today - Washer Dryer. Initially it sounded too good to be true, but - YES, there are two models from the company which can give you the convenience of a washing machine and a dryer without taking the space of two machines !!

Quoting from the manufacturer’s website:

“Guaranteed 100% dry clothes and perfect washes regardless of the season. It’s revolutionary direct dry technology ensures perfect wash and less noise and vibrations. ”

Let us go into some details without further delay:

WD-12330 CDP

This model is the cheaper of the two available. Click picture below to enlarge.

The features are:

• Washer & Dryer
• Direct Drive Technology
• High Spin Speed
• Condensed Drying
• Low Noise

The MRP for this product is Rs. 36,990/- but LG’s website lists the “buying” price as Rs. 34,990/-. We believe you may get it cheaper than the “buying” price mentioned online.

It is a little unclear so as to what the loading capacity of this machine is, as no where on the website is this detail mentioned.

What has been mentioned is the “drum volume” which is 42 L for this model.

WD-14331AD

This seems to be a little high-end machine to us. Although the brief specs online do not give any hint. We just assume that since it is more expensive, it has some advanced features. Please click on the image below to enlarge.

The MRP of this machine is Rs. 45,990/- but the buying price is Rs. 42,990/- The drum volume for this machine is 56 L.
