Product review (4 stars): Just what I wanted!
I got this washed because I was spending almost $40 a month on wash at the laundromat for 2 people. There aren't washer hookups in my house and even if there was, there isn't really space to put a washer.
I got the washer yesterday and already did two loads of wash. I fit jeans (mens 38, 32) a shirt and some small things like undies and socks all together and it washed them fine. I didn't use the water intake tube because it wasn't the right size fit for my sink. I just put the water in at the top and that seemed to be fine. Its not loud at all and fits more than I thought it would and doesnt take up too much space. I put in on a chair and had a bucket to drain the water. To empty the water all you do is let the tube down that is on the side of the machine. So unless you have a drain or something on your floor to drain the water, it fit on a kitchen chair just something so you can let the tube down to drain it. Fewer things can fit into the spin basket one or two things at a time, but it did a great job! You should have the tube draining while it is spinning or the clothes will just get wet again. The only thing, it shakes a little while it spins so I had to hold it (even when it was on the floor) but the spin doesnt take long at all so I didn't really mind. Id rather do that than ring them out by hand. For a small washer it worked great. I haven't tried towels yet but by the looks of it I think towels and bedding will be the only things Ill have to take to the laundromat.
