Abstract: A washing machine including a main body; a tub disposed inside the main body; a drum rotatably disposed inside the tub; a drying device including a compressor so that the drying device is configured to remove moisture from air discharged from the tub, heat the air from which the moisture was removed, and supply the heated air to the tub; and a support device disposed between the tub and the drying device. The support device may include a first support member longitudinally extending along a front and back direction of the main body, and a second support member longitudinally extending along a left and right direction of the main body, wherein at least one of the first support member and the second support member passes below the compressor, so that the first support member and the second support member are thereby configured to support the drying device above the tub.
