Product review (5 stars): The best on the market!
I am currently living somewhere where we (me and my mother) don't have our own washer and dryer. We share a facility with the other residents in our building. Usually the machines are either in use or broken, and so we have to wait until late at night to wash our clothes and hope that there are enough machines working so we can actually finish the job.

I had a portable washer before, and it was ok. It did not have a spinner, so I had to manually wring my clothes dry. It was also very small. I decided to give the idea of a portable washer and dryer another try. This time I wanted to get a washer with a spinner so that I would not have to wring my clothes dry. I did a lot of searching online before I figured out what option I wanted to go with. I found this one to be the biggest one in my price range.

This washer is much bigger than any of the pictures or even videos would imply. This thing holds about the same amount of clothes as a conventional washer and dryer. It comes with an attachable hose, a metal ring to hold the hose on a faucet, and an insert to place in the spinner to help level the clothes. It comes well packed with styrofoam to stabilize the package, plastic wrapping on the surface, and within a bag. This item was also eligible for Amazon Prime shipping at the time that I got it, which meant I was able to get it in two days. It is currently the largest portable washer on the market.

This thing is huge! As I stated before, it almost fits the same amount of clothes that a regular washer will fit. The spinner side is smaller than the washer, and will fit less clothes, but since it spins the clothes in a relatively quick amount of time, that is not much of an issue. You can also use the spinner and the washer at the same time. The water intake hose is very narrow, which means that it will take a long time to fill the basin. I ended up using a bucket to speed up the filing. At a recommendation from another reviewer, I also got a small rug to place this on during the spin cycle to minimize the vibration.

The instructions for this machine are hilarious. It is obvious this was made in an Asian country and imported to the USA. The translation is so funny that I kept them for a laugh in the future. The controls are simple enough that you can figure them out yourself. Basically, you add the clothes to the washer side, and make sure that they can agitate freely, and that the water level is able to go higher than the clothing level. There is no set maker but the basin has a lip over the edge as well as the lid, so it is hard for water to spin out. Speaking of spinning, the agitator is very powerful. Refer to the video reviews to see exactly how it works. It is amazing! You just pick the laundry wash type and turn the timer, and it starts!

The agitation cleans your clothes like you would not believe! I was shocked when I went to drain the water. Also, this has a built-in pump so that you don't have to manually drain anything. It has a built-in drain hose that you can hook over the side of a sink or a tub to drain the water. Once you drain the water, then you can rinse. As another reviewer mentioned, you rinse the clothes by putting them in the spinner and then connecting the hose to the spinner inlet. You connect the hose to the sink, and start running the water through it. Turn the spinner on and continue to run the water for 2 - 3 minutes and that is how you rinse the clothes. You can also rinse them by just filling the tub with water and running the washer again and draining it until the water runs clear, but that is more work.

The spinner works beautifully. It fits less clothes than the washer, so for every full wash you will probably spin twice. It is very important to make sure the clothes are level when you put them in or else the machine will not be balanced and will vibrate rather noisily (the small rug underneath can help minimize this noise). Put the clothes in and make sure that they are evenly distributed. Press them down with the insert for the spinner, and then just turn it on. It spins the water out and gets the clothes very close to dry. Then you can hang them and that is it!

One very important thing I need to mention is that this may trip either your circuit breaker or the GFI on your outlet depending on your wiring. When I first got this, it ran for two cycles and completely stopped. The timer would run, but the agitator was not working. I did everything I could think of to figure out what was wrong, and lo and behold, changing the outlet worked. If your machine is not working, please make sure to try another outlet and check your circuit breaker/GFI switch to make sure that the problem is not there. Otherwise you may end up hating/returning a perfectly working machine.

This has been a lifesaver for me and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a washer but who cannot get a traditional one. This is my new favorite appliance in my house!
