Washer dryer, yes no?

Like your what? What type is it and what make?

All in one ventless. Was planning on installing vented but on this one it sits between two doors in garage and no where to vent outside. We only camp about 6 weeks a year so it works for us. If we were full time I would have a stackable and run a vent.
 
It's not difficult at all, the main thing is to make sure that the sticker that put on the inside is in the correct spot and drill a small 1/4" hole or a 1/16" first and step it up from there you use a 4" hole saw, I watch a lot of YouTube video and I was able to get a diagram from Jayco also of the frame. What I did is to find the metal stud is you can take a small magnet and run it on the inside and if it stick, there your stub, drill in between them.
 
Are you satisfied with the machine?

We have the separate Splendide washer and dryer. We've only used them a handful of times. The washer load is about 75% of a typical washer and seems to perform (clean) well. It does "rock the house" when it spins. The dryer will accept a full washer load, doesn't "rock the house" and takes about 50% longer than a typical dryer to completely dry a load. That has to do with the fact that its 120V, not gas or 240V like a residential unit. The thing I liked most is how easy it was to get the winterization antifreeze into the washer. 10 minutes to do. Very well documented in the owner's manual.
 
I couldn't quite bring myself to taking a hole saw to the side of my trailer. Paid someone else to do it so the DW had someone beside me to blame if it went south.


I know, I wrest with this also and that was the biggest part of the install that why I watch a lot of YouTube videos but once you get past that it's a piece of cake. We do love it now it was one of the best mod I did to our 5th wheel, going to a lot of the laundry mats at the campground was kind of shady so we said why don't we install a washer & dryer ourselves.

Now when we are on a long trip and if we need to do a set of cloth, which we will, we just put in a load and go to the store and when we come back they are done. I would have done a stackable but we don't have room for that, we are happy with what we have.

With GD having switched to the Monotube chassis on the Solitude and Momentum it's really game changing. Having the central space for a stackable in the front cap with his and hers wardrobes to either side and the space gain around even a king bed is just awesome. Nothing I'd pay the crazy prices for upgrading to in these times, but tipping the hat to GD for the rework.
 
After I did this, it was a piece of cake.

So yeah, it was nerve raking but it was no turning back, I even install the washer & dryer by myself, it's about 120lbs.

What is this monotube you speak of? I checked the GD website and do not find any mention of it.

New this year and in late 2022 production. It's a revised frame design that rethinks the upper deck and the cantilever for the pinbox. It is was the game changer that let them turn the 40 ft Momentum into something awesome with rotating the bed and put into a full depth slide making the bedroom huge. I've not seen anything on their website but have seen in-person and I know models with it are touring the shows.
 
We have had both single and separate washer/dryer units over the years. Always Splendid (or however you spell it). We wouldn't have a rig without one. The single units work just fine - just small loads as you know. We actually liked not having to move clothes to a separate dryer. jmo mark
 
Hi, just bought a reflection 337rls. Want to put in a washer and dryer. What type did you install? Vented? Was the vent there when you bought it? Thanks

Welcome to the forum! In such a long thread, we cannot tell who you are asking. Here are a few posting tips:

1) If you use "Reply With Quote" (to the right of "Reply") as I have here, folks will know to whom you are responding and that person will get a notification.

2) You can also tag folks using the "@" symbol and their user name (as I have done yours) - they'll also get a notification that way.

3) You can create a signature block with your RV and tow vehicle information (see mine below). That way you won't have to repeat that information whenever you post or ask a question - and others won't have to ask. You can create a signature by going to:

Forum Actions (on menu bar) -> Edit Profile -> Edit Signature (under My Settings on the left)

Note: you'll need to have a paid subscription to add an image to your signature.
