<p>I read a lot reviews from retailers’ site but would like to hear comments from really parents here in CC.</p>
<p>Does the steam washer/dryer really that good? Is it safe for cashmere sweaters? </p>
<p>As I know, LG seems the first brand for steam washer/dryer, but now, Maytag, GE and Samsung all have their own line. All are not cheap. So, which brand you own? Will you recommend it?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>My mother just got a new steam washer & dryer, she has found that she does not often choose the steam cycle, though I did a load for her of clothes that were used for yard work and they came out decently clean.</p>
<p>Her steam cycles seem to be the longest cycle offered</p>
<p>I’ve had an LG steam washer and dryer for about 4 months now. I really like the steam on the wash cycle but have never used the dryer steam. I can see how it would be helpful to freshen up something before ironing but haven’t had the chance to use it yet. The washer steam cycle is LONG - an hour and 20 minutes easy. If you’re in a hurry or have a lot of loads to do it might not be feasible.</p>
<p>The LG I bought was a discontinued floor model with pedestals that I got for about half the price of the newer versions. If I had to pay the going rate for them I don’t think I would have done it. LOVE the pedestals though, makes a huge difference on my back. I was willing to pay less for the W/D in order to get the pedestals, and I’m glad I did.</p>
