 whirlpool cgt8000xq-stacked commercial washer/ dryer, but will run you 2,600. whirlpool cae2743BQ and cgm2743BQ - about $1600 for both from Lowes. i have the 2 from Lowes at one student rental and 2 of the stacked machines at a 2 family student rental. i charge a little less then laundromats in town but put them in to help pay for the Gas used and for the convenience for them to help rent the place. when they are on winter break and summer is when i go collect the money. both machines are commercial grade. at the two family i also installed a coin machine so they can get there change right there - i take the bills out and refill the coin machine with the coins from the laundry, easier for me then carrying a bunch of coins.

You're going to find most everything you need to know on this site by participating in the forums.
