The present invention relates to an improved washer and dryer combination. The washer and dryer are in a side by side configuration that has the ability to transfer washed clothes from the washer to the dryer. The washer has a movable platform that can be tilted via hydraulic arms such that any clothes within the washers can slide down a chute that connects the interior spaces of the washer and dryer to one another. When clothes are not being transferred from the washer to dryer, the chute is covered by sliding doors. In addition, the device may use a mobile application that notifies a user of the various stages of the washing, drying, and transfer process have been completed.
