Product review (4 stars): Great machine, the pump could be a bit stronger
The washer motor is strong and the machine is great to have, but the pump isn't quite strong enough (which sounds like it's a problem with most of these machines). The drain pump will only start pumping if the hose rises no more than 1 inch from the base to the drain. If you plan to drain into a bathtub, you can set the washer on a short table or something that is as tall as the side of the tub and it will work fine.
