Product review (5 stars): LOVE IT!  PAYS FOR ITSELF!!
I bought this little unit 3 months ago.  I wish I had bought it years ago. So convenient to do laundry in my apartment instead of carting it blocks away!  I was spending $30-$40/month in quarters; so this machine will have paid for itself in just a couple more months.  It delivers everything it promises.  This little marvel gets clothes cleaner than the laundromat ever did.  And it was ready to go right out of the box. Based on another review here, I ordered a Y-splitter that I did NOT need (only need if you plumb the thing in permanently).  One must keep the load size small so as not to overburden the motor (I have largish bath towels and can only run 2 at a time).  And the clothes(even towels) air-dry overnight under a regular fan.  I put the sheet of styrofoam packing from the shipping box between the wall and the unit--cannot hear it running in the next room, 10' away, but I can hear the beeps that signal the load is finished.  Obviously, one cannot let laundry pile up, as the load size makes it hard to catch up. But it's very very easy to run a load every few days.  I don't know about the longevity yet, but if it lasts 6 months, I'm money ahead and would purchase again!!
