The main reason for a combination device was the place. I did not have to build 2 units to a tower.
The device does what it should. The laundry is clean, the dryer - whether in automatic mode than "just dry" (immediately after the wash cycle) or in manual mode - also works as you'd expect it. One must note that the wash works well with 7 kg of the drying process, depending on the type of laundry but only with 2-4 kg. Also maybe try a little bit, what settings are best each - beginning my laundry was wrinkled after drying something. but now no longer.
40-60 degrees wash followed by automatic drying cycle works perfectly. If you end up really quickly picks up the laundry (within 30 minutes) from the dryer, then the crease works very well, and ironing is not necessary for almost all laundry items. The time display is beginning at 5 hours and 17 minutes - the whole run but takes only 4 hours and 35 minutes (the machine adjusts the calculation during the operation on).
Pleasant is the timer, you can program the start of the wash cycle up to 20 hours into the future - expect a bit and the laundry is done shortly after you come home from work to home.
What, however, quite annoying, is not a specific problem of this machine, but rather a problem of the combination device. In a separate dryer has a lint filter that you pull that takes fluff and ready. A matter of 3 seconds. With a combi boiler there is not, of course, such a lint filter. This means that the fluff in all cracks and openings on the unit, especially in the folds of the rubber material between the washing drum and the door. Cleaning is relatively complex. You need a damp cloth - and briefly wipe is not enough - it's a hassle, for one 3 - should plan for 4 minutes if you do not want to have all full of fluff the next wash cycle. Although this is partially type-conditioned - but I'm sure that you as well might find a better solution.
The engine is quiet and has a very pleasant design, the operation is simple and intuitive even partially.
As I said, for a small household an option with certain disadvantages - for a multi-person household, where almost daily laundry accumulates should not opt for a combination device to be.
I'll probably sometime but still buy a separate dryer and then use the device only as (expensive) machine.
