I have never been a fan of standard sized washer dryers, too much crammed in the same cabinet, the same motor and pump running throughout the washing & drying cycle causing greater wear and tear.
Definately not for a family, however if you are only going to give it light use, ie; 4 to 5 loads a week then you would possibly get away with an Indesit machine. As their parent company Merloni now control Hotpoint the Indesit machines come with the same 5 years parts G/tee that the Hotpoint brand has had for almost 25 years. This also makes spares availability much better.
One thing to remember is that although you can wash a full load in a washer dryer you can only wash & dry a half load.
As Chim says, if you can in any way fit both a washer & dryer then I would always advise you to spend the extra for the reliability and time saving of separate machines.
