We have had this washer since January 2021 and so far there have been no leaks, other than when the hose is not tightened enough at the washer (metal on plastic isn't the best idea there). It washes good sized loads for a small washer, it is not really easy to move with the built in wheels, but with the platform on locking wheels we made it moves extremely easily now and is fun to use. We do use it about twice a week and it is nice that we are also able to only do rinse and/or spin cycles alone if we wash something by hand and need to rinse/spin dry the items.
