Washer/Dryer Install

We own a Thor ACE 27.1 Considering installing a combo Washer/Dryer by eliminating 1/2 one of the closets in the BR. Has anyone done this? We are looking at a Ventless Combo unit. Your insight would be welcomed. Thank you!

Do not do ventless!!
Moisture is the killer of most RVs, so dumping more inside to dry clothes is not the best plan, GO vented.
We had the vented combo w/d for 3-4 years in a previous 5th wheel that worked OK, took 2-3 hours per load & most needed ironing after removing, but was 110% better than going to a laundromat.
The last 5th wheel we chose the stackables that worked great, if room permitting would highly recommend them.

Just installed a 2.0 cu ft Washer in my ace ..
I had to extend the closet 3” forward and it sits sideways but works.
