5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive
On the positive side -It does a very good job washing. It works like most top loaders and sloshes the clothes around in the soapy water, activating the surfactants in the detergent to remove dirt. You can see the dirty water coming out in the drain. If you have never seen that before, it will surprise you.It is bigger than I thought. I put in the water first - about 2/3 to 3/4 and added the soap and the Calgon. I am in a place with unfiltered hard well water so I have to buy good detergent and the water softener like Calgon or washing soda. You don't need that if you have city water or soft water.I then did a load with 3 tank tops, 2 t-shirts, 1 pair shorts, 5 days of underwear and bras (all adult large clothing).After that I tried a load with 3 pairs of sweat pants and 3 t-shirts (all adult small). I might leave out one T-shirt next time, but it was pretty good.I set the wash for 6 minutes, let it soak for a couple minutes, and then set it for 6 more minutes to handle really dirty stuff. It worked very well and the wash water was really dirty.I then filled with cold, did a 3-minute run for rinse, and drained out that water. The soap washed away and the water did not seem dirty.The drain is gravity fed, so I put the unit outside my shower and ran the drain hose over the lip. It did not drain completely out each time, because of the bump to get over the lip of the shower. At the end of each drain, I just lifted the unit up for a few seconds, using the side handles and it drained right out. Long term, I might get a board to put under it to raise it up over the lip.The next part was the part that surprised me. I left the cold water running into the tank and rinsed each piece under it, then squeezed it out and put it in the spinner. You can only do 1 pants and 1 shirt at a time in the spinner, so you have 2-3 spins per wash load. The spinner actually did a very good job spinning the clothes to not be drippy wet, and I only ran it for 2 minutes each time. As a test, I took the whole load and I put it into one of the big Nina Soft Spin dryers to see how much more I could get out. I got almost a cup of water (7oz) out of the full load of 3 pants and 3 shirts after running it for about 6 minutes. So, yes, the big spinner does get more out, but the little spinner was still pretty impressive. All the notes about balancing it are true, so I will not rehash those. Do it right, and it works right.A lot of people complain about the hose. It is flimsy and short and I never used it. I have one of those old little green spiral water hoses (not the fabric ones, the hard plastic spiral hoses) that fit right in the slot. It was already cut in the middle due to a hole in it. I put one end on my faucet aerator adapter I got at the hardware store, and pressed the other end (just the cut end of the green hose with no fitting) into the water inlet slot. It worked perfectly, with the exception that I lost the use of the bathroom faucet while doing laundry. You can always just use a pitcher or a bucket to put in the water, but plan to spend a few dollars to make something that works for you.The negative-My only complaint is that I did not pay attention to the size of it. I saw the videos and people saying they used it in their campers and such. They must have big campers. I thought I would put it on my kitchen counter and there is no way it fits there. The dimensions given on some sites were incorrect, and others were correct. I just had not pictured in my head very well what 25" tall and 25" wide look like. That is my mistake, not a problem of the product.
1.0 out of 5 stars Washer Fine / Spin Dryer Smokes Because It's an Existentialist
Note: I've submitted a refund/return request and may have them send another unit. I'll update this review if I do the latter.I bought this unit after conducting a bunch of reviews. Apartment living sucks if you don't have your own washer and dryer, so I figured this thing would save me some money.The washer in this unit works great. It does the same work I'd do by handwashing. The cycle for "Normal" seems to do the job well without being overly harsh on the clothes, a bonus for anyone who is tired of their everyday clothes getting holes from industrial washers. It takes a little time if you don't have a faucet hookup, but you'd probably take the same time doing it all by hand anyway. If I had only purchased the washer portion, this would probably be a 4 or 5 star review. Alas...The dryer immediately crapped out. First load of laundry. At first, it ran fine for the first half of a load. When I started on the second half, it wouldn't run. I figured maybe the clothes were too heavy, since some of them were really absorbent, but then the thing started smoking (some kind of electric smoke -- clear and semi-odorous, but definitely the "burn your throat" variety). It kept smoking when I stopped it.Again, if I were only buying the washer, I'd probably be a happy camper. But the spin dryer died on the first go and spewed some electric smoke garbage on top of it, which I assume is terrible for anyone to breathe. If you're in an apartment, it's not like you have much ventilation, so this could have been worse if I hadn't sat there watching it on the first round just to make sure I was doing everything right.It's a really great idea, and all the video reviews I've seen on YouTube have given units like this some kind words. But I'm not at all happy by how quickly it went from "this might do the trick" to "OMG is my apartment gonna burn down and start the Apocalypse"...
5.0 out of 5 stars Life-Changer for Small Apartment Living!
I absolutely love this portable washing machine! Living in an apartment without washer and dryer hookups has always been a hassle, but this little machine has completely changed the game.It’s compact yet surprisingly powerful, handling my weekly laundry with ease. The convenience of being able to wash clothes in my own space instead of lugging everything to the shared laundry room or the laundromat is priceless. It’s quiet, easy to set up, and doesn’t take up much space at all.The wash cycles are efficient, and my clothes come out clean every time. Plus, the portability means I can easily store it when it’s not in use. If you’re in a similar situation without traditional hookups, I highly recommend this machine. It’s a total lifesaver! Wish I had purchased it sooner.
Works great
This was purchased just for baby clothes and I have used it for that only. so far it has worked great. As you can tell it’s not a heavy duty machine so you have to be gentle with it to get value for your money. It makes a clicking sound when I overload it sometimes, but once I notice I reduce the load and the sound stops . I use about 4 times in a week for no longer than 5min at a time.
Buena potencia del motor.
Llevo usándola unas cuantas veces y funciona bastante bien.Solo una ocasión parece que se calentó un poco el motor y no te deja usarla hasta que se enfríe nuevamente. Por todo lo demás excelente.
Buen producto
No seca bien la ropa con la centrifugadora que tienePero a pesar de todo es práctica para un Departamento chicoAsí mismo es de fácil transportación
things you need to know
Update: we bought it in April. It's only been used for light, small stuff and treaded carefully. The "dehydrator" is broken now. It'd probably take a month or more to get another one, ignoring the cost.Just not worth it. It works great. It washes well and the clothes come out of the "dehydrator" just damp.The issues are mostly information which is missing.- the electrical cord is short. You'll have to decide for yourself if you are comfortable using an extension cord.- remember to switch to "drain" mode when you are running the "dehydrator" (the spinner) or the water will build up inside and it won't "dehydrate"- if you balance the clothes in the dehydrator, it won't make much noise and will take most of the water out, more than I can wring out by hand- only put in enough water to cover the clothes in the washer- don't over-fill. It won't work and it will wear it out according to other reportsWe put it in the bathtub on a boot tray (https://www.Bolo.ca/SafetyCare-Flexible-Rubber-Multi-Purpose-Garden/dp/B017JGAPQQ/ref=pd_yo_rr_rp_2/132-2597551-0663603?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B017JGAPQQ&pd_rd_r=3f75eac3-74af-4b02-8c25-05d5b1376e06&pd_rd_w=JvFVL&pd_rd_wg=uu9m9&pf_rd_p=7c9c5993-bcdc-433f-87eb-0125a90eb665&pf_rd_r=R0A38WHBCKRDJP215Z1T&psc=1&refRID=R0A38WHBCKRDJP215Z1T) which reduces the noise and protects the tub and keeps it from moving around. That package has two trays, so the other is kept in the other room and protects the floor from drips.
Great product. Good quality, reasonable price, Recommended
The media could not be loaded. I like it. It is very simple to use. Works quiet and wash the clothes perfectly. To better dry, I split one washing load on two.Looks better than I have expected. Good quality.Minus: 1. hose and cable are very short.2. You have to remember switch selector from drain to wash, otherwise the water is gone 😄
