The Objective

The Equator 1.62 cu.ft./15 lbs. Super Combo Washer-Dryer was designed to offer an all-in-one laundry solution that maximizes convenience in small spaces without sacrificing performance. The objective was to create a compact, ventless washer-dryer that could be seamlessly integrated into both built-in and freestanding environments. Special attention was given to creating a versatile machine with a range of customizable programs, including Allergen and Pet Cycles, addressing the unique needs of modern households.

The development team included product engineers, user experience designers, and laundry technology experts. The focus was on creating a washer-dryer that delivered high efficiency and ease of use, while also offering advanced features typically found in larger units. The team collaborated to ensure the product was ETL certified, reliable, and able to meet the demands of users who need flexibility in installation, including zero-clearance requirements for built-in setups. Customer feedback and usability testing were key elements in refining the product's touch button interface and program options.
