Product review (5 stars): Great for apartment dwellers!
I've used similar devices where you had to hand churn the washer.  Therefore I was glad to see this automatic washer available when my old hand washer busted.  I am using it to avoid the laundromat.  Times are tight here and the laundromat will easily eat $40 a month! I take the bus which makes it inconvenient as well! So far I have washed quite a few loads and it has performed well.  One pair of pants or two shirts at a time is the limit (instructions say 800 grams).  I like that the wash tub is removable for easy filling/rinsing in the sink/bathtub.  My analysis so far?  Clothes are clean.  The price is right (it will pay for itself in 2 months!) but because of its size- it is time consuming.  Overall this is a great deal.  If it works for 6 months, I'll come back and give it 5 stars!
