Well, I've not got ANY experience with the washer and dryer, and Jo has only tested them to verify that they work. We aren't full-timing yet.
However, we opted for Whirlpools ourselves. We did a little different than others I've seen. Both are front loaders, but the washer we got has the window in the door but the dryer doesn't. At least at the time we ordered ours from a local appliance dealer, the dryer with the window was a 240V unit. So we ordered one that is 120V, and no window.
The picture I have is too big, so here is a link:
