Product review (5 stars): LOVE IT!!!
I live in an apartment and we are not allowed other types of portable washers. When I found this, I finally found the solution that would work, and I was right! It was easy to put together and it's a nice hard type of plastic. It has a hand-crank, so no electricity! YAY!!! I just put in in my bathtub and then put in the things I need or want to wash. It's very good for sheets, jeans, curtains, just whatever I need to wash. I use less laundry soap (I make my own), add water, put the lid on, turn the handle for a couple minutes, drain the water out and put in my rinsing water & add a little bit of my homemade fabric softener and give turn the handle for another couple of minutes. Then  Everything comes out SO much cleaner than the commercial washers. I'm on a limited income and can't afford to go to the laundrymats and was washing everything by hand. I'm in my mid 50s and this is a life safer in more ways than one. It saves me $$$ I can't afford and I don't have to worry about going to a laundrymat with heavy loads and paying the high prices of the washer and then the dryer. I also have a spin dryer from this same company that takes all of the excess water out and then I hang dry on a dryer rack in my kitchen for a couple of hrs (sometimes even less). I am saving not only $$$, but my hands and back as well. This works perfectly for me and I'm so glad I found it! You can even take this on camping trips! Anyone who needs to save money and time, this is the Perfect portable washer and gets the job done!!!
