If you have room for it, it is more practical with a separate dryer and washing machine. You will lose the ability to dry clothes while another batch is washing. But if you are single and don't have to do more than one wash at a time, it is of course not a problem. I also think that they had some problems in the past, where the clothes didn't dry as well or that the machine could wash a larger load than it could dry. If you wash a full load and need to take some of the clothes out, a combo will lose some of its practical use. But that was years ago, so they have probably improved a lot. If you have room for a washer, you usually have room for a dryer since you can just put the dryer on top of the washer (the dryer weighs nothing)
