Product review (4 stars): Love it! It's great for small pieces
Love it! It's great for small pieces, like shirts or underwear. The machine holds five dress shirts easy. My husband mistakenly tried to wash a big bath towel once, which was a bad idea for a variety of reasons; now he is banned from the machine. I really enjoy using it. Even though I'm not a good enough engineer to get the tap water to run straight into the machine, I find pouring water in with a basket easy enough. I usually wash the load twice and then dry it once (the manual recommends washing once, drying once, then wash again and dry again. I find it unnecessary).

The only two points I think you should be aware of before purchasing are: (1) you can not wash and dry at the same time. So if you are on tight schedule, and can't spare at least 15min for each small load, then it's not for you. (2) the drain hose is hard to empty completely, you will have to deal with small scale spillage whenever you move it.
