Huh -- I'm watching the local political news, and someone just threw out a former Big Boss's name as a potential candidate for Manhattan DA. (The current guy -- Adam Schiff -- not really -- is retiring after 30 years.)

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
brenda, a friend lived in a place with a 2-in-1 and that thing took freaking FOREVER.
I can't imagine it's much worse. What I think I really need is to find a regular old low-efficiency set. It's not like I do so much laundry that the power or water usage is really an issue.
Actually, I was going to ask if anyone had experience with the 2-in-1 type - where you wash and dry in the same unit.
We looked into them a few years ago, but they generally didn't have good reviews.
I like them, Dana
Brenda, the all-in-one washer/dryer are popular on boats. From everyone I know that has one, they are not on. They take for.ever (in excess of 3 hours) to do one load and often they don't get the clothes dry. On boats they have a tendancy to overflow too which is extra bad. My one friend hates hers so much she uses the laundromat or she borrows ours - thankfully we have a full size washer and dryer on the boat and since we don't live aboard any more it's easier for her to schlep her laundry down the dock!
Dana, I like those boots

See, but this is my situation now. And with half the space. They're expensive enough that I won't jump from this pan into that fire, but damn.
What kind of high efficiency W/D do you have now, Brenda?
The drawback that she hates the most is the inability to wash one load while the other dries. So it takes her all weekend just to get a week's worth of laundry done.
