I have an AEG one box that I bought when I lived in Holland.  I've had it for 8 years now and it's still going strong.  The one drawback, I find, is that it being a condenser dryer, I can only dry cotton (sheets and towels) in it as it gets so, so hot.  Yes, I have melted things in my dryer before.  But I can't imagine living without it. 
Also, the one box washer/dryers, being condenser dryers, don't need special venting for the dryer.  Mine just sits in the bathroom and is connected by one pipe to the cold water (it heats the water in the washer) and one pipe to drain out and a plug for the electricity. 
I have an AEG service guy who comes out in the evening if I need him (only had him come once when I thought I broke it, turns out it was just a fuse in the plug that had blown).  I <3 my AEG washer/dryer.
Good luck!

 just remember that you can only dry half the washer limit. i.e, 5 kg wash load should only dry 2.5 kg dry load. however, if you throw in a 2.5 kg load in the morning when you leave the house, you'll come home to a washed and dryed load.....so very practical, can do that 2-3 times a week :-)
do you also know where to buy the machine that does the ironing :-)
