All Four One
The FlexWash + FlexDry Laundry System is one of the most innovative ways to do laundry yet. It’s a standard, side-by-side, front-load washer and dryer, but both the washer and dryer have a corresponding smaller washer and dryer in the top of the machine. The idea is to wash and dry normal loads in the standard-sized washer and dryer, and do smaller, more delicate loads in the smaller capacity units. Both the dryers and washers are able to run simultaneously, without affecting the other. Availability and pricing have not yet been released by Samsung.
