Product review (2 stars): This washer is manual and takes a lot time to use.
This washer is loud and is giving a "smoke" like smell when it is working. I am not sure whether it is normal or not. Website description is accurate and honest. Every time I need  to wash, I need to 1) manually fill in water and make sure that water is below the limit. 2) set timer for washing 3 set it to drain 4) manually fill in water again and make sure that water is below the limit 5) set timer to rinse 6) I may have to do a 2nd rinse or 2nd washing if needed. 7) manually drain 8) manually put half of the load into spin basket 9) set timer for spin 10) manually put remaining half  of the load into the spin 11) set timer for spin. As spin basket can take only half of the washing basket, I need to spin twice for everything wash. You can tell how much time this machine cost you for one load of wash. I found automatic washing machine with only $100-$150 higher elsewhere. Basically, you put water and load in, turn it on and it does all washing, draining and spinning by itself. I think it makes better sense to spend extra $100-$150 to save A LOT TIME to do something more meaningful and productive.
