Product review (5 stars): Why didn't I buy this ages ago?
I've had it about a month and I love it! I use it several times a week to do small loads. To wash my double sheets, it takes two loads...one sheet and one pillow case in each load. I can wash 1 bath towel, 2 wash cloths, 1 hand towel and 1 dish towel in one load. The load I did this morning was 3 camisoles, 2 t-shirts, 8 socks 1 pr pantyhose in lingerie bag and 5 pairs underwear. Of course, how much you can fit in will also depend on the size you wear. A tall hefty man can probably wash 1 pair of jeans and a short skinny girl, 3-5 pairs.

I first tried it on my kitchen counter and the hose didn't fit the sink. I snipped off the top part of the hose hoping it would fit, but no. I used a bucket to fill it at first. Later, I tried it in the bathroom. The fill hose fit my bathroom sink perfectly and it just fits on the counter next to the sink. That's much easier than the bucket. I don't have the spinner that comes with this washer, but did buy an amazing countertop spinner from The Laundry Alternative. One wash load is 2-3 spin loads and most things dry in 30 min to 4 hours.

I do keep putting too much soap in by mistake. It needs a very tiny bit. I wash everyday clothes in a few minutes, but my stinky work clothes take longer. I fill with water, add soap and clothes, turn the machine on for a few minutes, then let the clothes sit for a few hours before turning the machine on for a few more minutes. I drain the water and rinse twice. After the second rinse, if I want to do another load, I don't drain. I pull the clothes out of the washer, give them a little wring and then put them in my separate spinner. I then start another load in the leftover rinse water.

No, this isn't my lovely full sized washer and dryer with all the bells and whistles that I owned when I also owned my own home. But it is vastly superior to going to the laundromat or washing clothes by hand in my tiny apartment. It gets my clothes very clean. It's easy to use. It is convenient. And I think it is fun to play with. I suppose the fun part might wear off in time, but for now, it's my entertaining new toy. It is the perfect size for one person in an apartment.
