I had the Hotpoint similar version of this washer dryer and HATED it with a passion. Wash performance wasn't great, acceptable, but not great. The machine is very noisy especially on spin. The Cabinet on the Hotpoint version was incredibly flimsy and dented when I moved the unit to clean behind it. My machine lasted two years before the PCB burnt out.
I am sure you will find a "compact" F/L washer only if you search ebay or craigslist and would probably find better quality machine. Sorry to put a dampener on things, you never know you may be fine with the Ariston model. PaulC | ||

Not sure if they are available where you live, but I found a Haier 14lb combo for $100 on Craigslist he in Fort Lauderdale and loved having my own private laundry instead of having to use the communal laundry room in my apartment building. Yes, it takes forever to dry most jeans and blankets, but it's well worth being able to have both in one where only one will do, if that. My apartment didn't have permanent hook-ups so the built in retractable wheels were a godsend when I needed to hook it up to the sink! Spins were loud, but water usage was low. I guess my point is maybe you should try out a less expensive combo to see if you can adapt to the way they work (smaller, more frequent loads)than to spend $350 on an experiment. One things for sure, your laundry will be sanitary as your clothes and wash tub get soo hot, your clothes are literally steamed dry.
I've also has some experience with a Malber Combo, but it was more expen$ive to purchase, but worked the same.
