Washing and drying converge at the Equator EZ3600 ventless electric "clothes processor" ($995). The unit will wash and dry 13 pounds of laundry. The hot air that dries the load is water-cooled internally. The machine pumps the moisture down the drain as condensate rather than releasing it into the room as moist air. The front-load design uses less water and is gentler on clothes than a traditional washer. You can install it under a counter to save space.
