Product review (4 stars): Wonderful for apartment living!!
Im in love with this little machine. I live in an apartment building with one coin-op washer and dryer for everyone. This is the perfect solution to my public-laundry woes.
Pros:
-Its compact and fits into a small space in my small bathroom.
-The gravity drainage system means I can place the drain tube in my shower without moving the unit. Because there isna slight lift into the shower, the tube doesnt empty entirely, but it isn't enough of an issue to concern me.
-This only requires a standard electric outlet to operate. There is no extra wiring or plumbing needed to set it up and operate it.
-The wash capacity is pretty impressive for a portable machine. I can fit nearly as much into it as the apartment machine Ive used for the past
6 years. You can add items to the wash cycle after its started, so its easy to ensure you're not over-filling.
-It gets your laundry incredibly clean. I included a picture of the water draining after a wash cycle so you could see how much dirt it got out. Embarassing but helpful.
-The spin cycle gets the items so dry! Seriously,
Im surprised every time.
-I can do my laundry without ever leaving my apartment!! This alone makes it worth every penny!

Cons:
-The water hoses for filling the machine are woefully short, and are equipped to hook up to no faucet Ive ever seen.  I may one day purchase longer hoses to allow me to fill the wash tub from my bathroom sink, but in the meantime Ive been using a bucket I fill from the bathtub.
-Its a little labor intensive. Manually fill the wash tub, run a second cycle to rinse, split the wash into two parts to spin, hang everythig to dry. This isn't the kind of washing machine where you can push a button and let it do its thing. It needs babysat, but for me, the work is worth it for the convenience.
-The spin compartment is so much smaller than the wash compartment. I imagine it has to do with  the motor placement, but its taken 3 spin cycles sometimes to finish off the load.
-Its a little noisy. I live on the top floor and am always worried about causing too much noise for the downstairs neighbors. Im going to purchase a mat for this to sit on to absorb the noise, and to keep it from walking across the tile as it agitates and spins.

Ive told so many people about this machine. It isn't perfect, but when you live in an apartment in a big city, you take the conveniences you can get, and this is a HUGE convenience. I highly recommend it!
