Product review (4 stars): Perfect for small places
This has been a game changer for me.  I have a studio condo with no washer dryer hookups.  I went too long between laundry days because I either had to drag it to a friend's place or scrounge up quarters for a laundromat.  I finally bought this.  It works with a standard outlet, and fits perfectly next to my kitchen sink. You're not going to get huge loads done and there is a different feel to the clothes, but it does seem to do a better job than the industrial washers at the laundromat.  It is a more manual process and needs to be babysat, but worth it to be able to do laundry in my home.  The only tricky part that I'm still trying to perfect is draining.
