Product review (5 stars): good servicable product
good servicable product... user manual is minimal, but everything is pretty straightforward.  My first load was some dish towels, use minimal soap as you don't wanna be re rinsing over and over.  does tend to twist things up a bit, but I'm not worried about that.  I had some heavily soiled work shirts, put them in the machine, let them soak in water overnight to loosen everything up, drained, refilled with soapy water and proceeded as normal, they came out fine.  Will be using it primarily for socks, underwear and such that we don't want to sit around in the hamper, and it's perfect for that.  water in hose is not the best or long enough really, but I used a bucket for water... no big deal to me.
