I know they're made these days and are very expensive.
I bought one back in the 1960s made by G.E. the washing system
lasted many years and finally died about 4 years ago.
the dryer kept blowing thermostats and I got tired of spending
over a hundred bucks to replace it and got a cheap used dryer
once we had the space.

The dryer used cold water to cool the hot air so it didn't start
a fire, and it had no vent to outside.  It got quite hot anyhow,
but it was the only thing practical in the apartment I had then.

I wonder why you couldn't use a stacking setup as I have now from
Sears, unless you have overhead cupboards or shelves, it is about
6 feet high and is quite easy to use.  You do have to squat down
to move wet cloths from the bottom washer to the top dryer, so if
you're at all physically disabled that might be a disadvantage.

Also, with a stack you can wash one load and dry another, which
you couldn't do with the combo.

I'd bet the combo machines are still very expensive and very
prone to failure.
