And they go both ways. The newest KOTULAS catalog on page 40 has the Equator W/D combo and according to the ad it can be VENTED OR VENTLESS! Pretty sure that's a mistake, but it could change the world as we know it. | ||

Would love to know where Kotulas is getting them from since an on line search shows nothing new. | ||

Here's the link to the machine on the website. It looks a lot like a Haier.

MRB, that's slick! I would love to see inside that thing to see how it changes the dry method. | ||

 I worked for that "Sweatshop mentality" company and saw how many thousands of combos and stacked washer/druers were useless due to bad design and cheap labor in China where they're made. My paychecks would bouce and sometimes more then not, I had to take days off because the lights anf,power were not paid.But,the owners drive Mercedes sports cars and vans. | ||

Can't wait to read reviews on these, or for people to upload vids of it. I am quite confused, because where does the lint go? Into the vent tube?? Or have I missed something? | ||

Glen, good question. Maybe it condenses and vents at the same time. I find it interesting that it only hooks to cold water.. | ||

This is getting more interesting! Finally found owners manual through the Sears site. It looks like they took the old manual added some pages. It does say it needs to have vent hose installed but gives no specifics on how and doesn't address the "added vent blower". Nor does it address suggested vented drying times. | ||

I found that using a bit of fabric softener, washing clothes of the same weight together (less of a problem given the smaller capacity), and taking the clothes out and hanging them up immediately after they're done went a long way to reduce wrinkles. Jim | ||

Looks like a Haier,,,Think San Giorgio
It may well look like a Haier ,and may well be made by them, but the rear view with the inspection panel removed as shown in the video reveals its true origins. Its a very old design as once built by San Giorgio.In the video ,the rear shot of the machine you can even see where a rubber gromet has been inserted at top r.h. side of tub where the original San Giorgio had 2 hoses for the venting the dryer exhaust.In the u.k. we had variations of this machine and used to be sold as the Servis companion washer dryer .Blomberg WD1100 washer dryer.Carlton washer dryer and many many more.A lot of the Chinese built dishwashers,clothes washers that ive worked on seem to be of Italian origin ,mainly old Indesit models. Its a pig with lipstick on! Nigel.

So did we ever figure out what it does with the lint? | ||
