The Duo Washing Machine: Wash Your Hands and Then Your Clothes

2008_08_08 belko.jpgHere is the reverse of the washup toilet and washing machine combo. And by reverse we don't mean the toilet water is being used to wash your clothes. Yuck. We are talking a sink and washer combined in a very small footprint for compact living spaces.

When you go to take a shower, your dirty clothes can go directly into the machine rather than being moved from hamper (or floor depending on your style) to washer.

This would make a lot of sense spacewise if it was also a dryer. Being single and fairly mobile means the next washer/dryer is going to be one unit.

It looks like a very good idea. I would buy one, especially because I have a very small bathroom and like this I could free a bit the space there. Did anyone buy it? Is it working properly? In case it stops working, will I find the needed appliance parts easily?
