Last updated: November 24, 2021


Its near-silent operation is a hallmark of this front load washing machine. It's just as efficient as it is compact, with an auto-load sensor to minimize water use. This washer is also remarkably easy to operate, thanks to a self-cleaning filter and other features.

Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Using the Splendide is very easy. You just throw in a load, choose what wash cycle you want, set how long you want to dry the clothes, and push start. You can even add laundry during the cycle without creating a big mess or having to start all over. For maintenance, the filter cleans itself and removes lint, so you don’t even have to do that.

The Splendide WD2100XC is well-known in the RV community for being the perfect alternative to cumbersome and frequent trips to the laundromat.
- The Spruce
There are a lot of good reasons behind this. Firstly, this particular setup has a large capacity. The maximum washing capacity is around fifteen pounds while the drying capacity is at eleven pounds.
- Rainy Adventures
The machine is easy to use and choose the wash cycle you want.
- Driving Life
The unit is suited to an RV’S limited space because of its small size and portable nature
- 10 Best Ranked
It is a front loading compact washing machine and dryer all in one so it is great for laundry shops and the like.
- Jen Reviews
This is a nice machine for RVs as it offers a level of comfort you do not discover often in an RV. This lightweight machine also is effective in condominiums, flats, Apartments, and other residing places with only a little
- Product Best Reviews
Using technologies that Splendide has developed, this is a nice and silent washer-dryer combo that you can run all day, and the noise is so minimal that you’ll barely be able to hear it.
-
Low Maintenance – Lint passes safely through a ‘self-cleaning pump’ and then out the drain or dryer vent – so there’s no messy wash or dry filter for you to clean.
- Washer/Dryer Comboz
I also like the built-in automatic load sense as it helps limit the water consumed by it once it detects that a load does not have that many clothes.
- US Auto Authority
It is remarkably silent when washing because they use brushless AC motors. Noise during washing is a big turn off for almost everyone.
- Wheel Area
It has an automatic water level control that adjusts to maximize efficiency, but there are options to set it for low spin or water temperature, depending on the specific requirements of the items in each load.
- RV Expertise
Thanks to the stability regulator, the Splendide WD2100XC generates little noise in operation. The washer dryer control is quite simple so you should have no trouble putting it to good use. Due to the extra wide door, it’s easy to fill the inside of the washer dryer with clothes and alike.
- Outdoor Fact
The final verdict is that the Splendide 2100XC performs quite well for it’s price and size, and since it was made for RV use you don’t have to worry about it breaking as you drive down the road.
- Canadian Renegade
Again, because we opted for vented, it dries faster.
- LongbyFive
Overall, we love this unit and highly recommend it. If we had it to do over again, we would still make this one of our first purchases.
- Here and There with Scott and Jackie
The Splendide (WD2100XC) provides you with a super fast and maximum 1200 rpm spin, which ensures your cotton fabrics dry up faster. This washing machine also gives you 10 wash cycles and 3 dry cycles along with a dry time selector. The result is you get the best experiences when washing your fabrics.

What reviewers didn't like

When you use the Splendide, your clothes end up with more wrinkles than they would with conventional dryers. Prepare to use an iron. Limiting the kinds of clothes you put in the dryer might help as well, as clothes like blouses just get wrinklier than jeans.
- ratingle
However, since this model from Splendide doesn’t include a lint filter, you shouldn’t use a dryer sheet in the machine and may need to clean the vent line and hose periodically.
- The Spruce
Tends to vibrate when it operates
- Rainy Adventures
Some clothes or fabrics may end up with more wrinkles. So avoid using silk like fabrics in the machine.
- Driving Life
There is only one thing the Splendide lacks; it is a delay option. The absence of a delay option means you cannot schedule washes.
- 10 Best Ranked
The drying function requires venting the hot air outside, which might be a problem in some households.
- Washer/Dryer Comboz
Lacks a delay option, causing you to be unable to do schedule washes
- US Auto Authority
It complicated and required the use of a manual for a couple of days
- Wheel Area
Requires installation of ventilation system
- RV Expertise
Might wrinkle your clothes
- Outdoor Fact
The one main issue we had with this machine was when the internal exhaust tube became clogged with lint. The issue wasn’t too hard to fix and if it happens again we will be able to remedy it lot easier the second time now that we know what to do.
- Canadian Renegade
Unfortunately, there were NO stickers or anything on the inside that would suggest on where a good place to drill a hole for a vent should be placed.
- LongbyFive
We also learned that you really don’t want the dry cycle to get the clothes completely dry. If that happens the clothes get a bit “crispy” and come out more wrinkled.
- Here and There with Scott and Jackie
Its durable design is only possible with proper maintenance.
