Great on small loads. We would not travel without one.

I had one added to the Neptune when we bought it and went over the directions with G. We did a few practice loads and are now very happy with it. Socks,Shorts and towels are easy but you have to be carefully with Jeans and T shirts...

We had a Splendide in our first MH and when we were trading for our present coach 2 yrs ago the first thing the DW said is where is the Washer. They had to install one prior to our trading. I will add one tip that will help. Load the washer full and don't put in any dry time. When it quits washing take 1/2 of load out and dry 1/2 at a time. The clothes will come out without wrinkles and you can dry in about 2 30-45 minutes cycles. When our clothes hamper gets full my wife washes, about every 4 days. She hates the laundry mats for all of the above reasons.


One other drying trick that we learned from the manual was to take the clothes out at the end of the wash cycle, fold them, reinsert and then dry. Your clothes will be far less wrinkled. Don't know why this works, but it does.

There is a washer and dryers combo as an options in the coach we are looking at. Is worth while? Do they work well? Any opinion would be appreciated Thanks!


Yes, -- the DW does not like to use coin operated so she has learned to use the Splendide 2100XC Combo. This has been painful as they are not the same as a regular washer dryer – you need to dry about half as much as you wash for them to work well.

For us the secrete has been to do a load every day and keep the loads smaller – the other thing is we have all the space over top of the Combo for storage – that helps a lot.

Because we spend much of our time in Colorado with No Humidity we actually will take half the load out and hang them in the shower to dry while drying the other half then we just need to fluff the ones on the hangers as they are dry. Great as it puts a little Humidity in to the Coach.

Try it you may not love it but once you learn how to use it you might appreciate it.

DW loves ours, she does all our laundry in it, usually doing a load or two a day. A stackable would be nice, but wasn't an option nor do we have enough room.

ditto. love mine too. Small items. Use fabric softener instead of sheets, helps separate the clothes so they dry better plus it makes the motorhome smell nice!
