I have been washing clothes by hand for decades. I would only use laundry facilities when washing bulky or heavy items. Everything else I washed in a bucket with a plunger-looking thingy (that I also bought on Amazon). I do not find hand washing to be onerous. On the contrary, most of the wash time is soak time. But as I have been doing laundry this way for decades, over the years, I noticed that I had less strength in my hands, wrists, and arms, and wringing out the clothes was difficult. I would end up draping dripping clothes on my drying rack. It was a mess.Enter this washing machine. Now, my mom and grandma had portable Hoover washing machines in the 70’s and 80’s that they rolled up to the kitchen sink. They were heavy beasts made of metal and had thick, rubber hoses that actually could fit on a faucet. This is not those. This is a plastic made-in-China thing with thin plastic hoses that could never in a million years fit on any American faucet.If you think this thing is a replacement for a “real†washing machine, you’d be wrong. It’s not even a replacement for the old-timey portable washing machines. What this thing is is an easier way to hand wash. If you think of it this way, you’ll never be disappointed.It’s very light, which is good. I pick it up easily and put it in my tub. The inlet hose is a joke, so I fill a bucket and pour the water in the washer that way. Others have rigged up funnels on their shower head. You’ll figure something out. I don’t find that to be much of a pain; after all, I’m used to doing laundry by hand, so this is similar enough that I’m not bothered. If you’re used to a large automatic washer where you throw the clothes in, set it, and walk away for a half hour or more, this will seem to be a pain in the butt. But coming from hand washing, it’s fine.The best part of this is the spinner. It gets so much water out of my clothes that they are barely damp when I hang them on my drying rack. No more wringing! That is the best part. Heck, I wouldn’t mind washing clothes by hand in my bucket and just using the spinner function to get the water out.Don’t use too much detergent. Most people have that problem when using any kind of washer. You don’t need tons of suds. Also, keep the water in the tub while spinning. You need the weight. Drain it after you’re done using the spinner.In conclusion, if you think you’re getting a smaller, lighter version of an automatic washing machine, you’ll be disappointed. But if you want something a step up from hand washing, then this is the thing for you. You’ll love it! No more wringing!

I was so nervous about buying this, because I am 68 years old, 5’1â€, with a bad back. I have no faucets that easily hook up to anything and was worried about the cord, and the hose. But I absolutely love it! I ended up buying a funnel for $1.98 and putting it on the end of the hose and attaching it to my showerhead with hair ties. I saw a YouTube video with someone doing that. It worked like a charm. Now I don’t have to fill buckets. I store it in my closet on a flat dolly that I made myself with a wire rack and some rolling wheels. I roll it into my tiny bathroom and only need to lift it 1 foot length into the shower, (I use a rubber mat to save any friction damage on shower stall and catch any lint that escapes) I attach the hose/funnel to the showerhead and it fills beautifully! It does quite a bit of laundry (18 lb capacity) and spins it almost dried as advertised. I did my first set of thick towels - 2 big and 2 hand and 4 wash cloths at once). They dried not as fluffy as a dryer but they are clean and just fine! It’s not that loud. It seems sturdy, and is easy to move. The draining of water is slow and steady — I was afraid of gushing. This is a wonderful little invention!

Very effective portable washer - great for single person, trailer, camper, cottage. 120V can do pair of jeans, several shirts, long john, face clothes half dozen socks. Can do 6-8 polos easily. The high speed spin drum is incredible, 30 seconds and clothes are 80% dry - saves drying time. Drain works great, 5 gallon bucket works if you don't have permanent hookups. The gentle cycle is really just half cycle time of regular - 3 seconds on agitator vs 6 seconds. Wonderful little unit, cleans clothes very well - very happy.

Pros: cuts drying time because spinner is fast, cleans clothes very well, fits in small spaces good for apartmentCons: short hose and doesn’t fit on any faucet so have to fill up manually, needs to be close to a drain to drain out and cord is also not very long.

This machine, although plastic, is sturdy and seems well made.The bottom based gyrator is strong however one needs to keep untangling wash items while being washed.The spin dry tub extracts water extremely well and quickly. the machine is light enough to easily lift in and out of the bathtub, where I find it easy to use, fill and drain. Note: I use the styrofoam packing form that it came packed in, as a base for the machine to sit on in the tub to soften noise & vibration and to prevent damage to the tub. I cut and duct taped the styrofoam to accommodate the water drainage hose. I hang the styrofoam form up to dry afterwards to prevent mold from forming. Sadly for me, I paid $50. more in 2022 for what appears to the same machine. Still, all in all, I’m very satisfied with my purchase. Great little washer spin dryer!

First off, the machine arrived way before the estimated time of arrival. It arrived three (3) days after I ordered it... that was a nice surprise.It washes as good as a bigger machine, and the spin-dry describes spin-dry very well, it comes out from the spin almost dry for small items.The only drawback are the hoses. The water inlet hose does not fit any of my tap fixtures. So I use a bucket to fill it. I put the machine in the bathtub (like others have done), then the drain hose works very well this way. As for the water inlet hose, I have ordered a new shower-head which has a long hose that will reach the machine wery well, to fill it up, rather than using a bucket.I consider these drawbacks not too harsh given that the machine is awsome!
