Product review (5 stars): Won't go without this machine
UPGATE 5 30 15:  Company sent out a replacement, right away.  I've had it about a week now, and am happy.  It's been working great!!!

UPDATE 5 17 15:  I am so sad!!  It's been 1 uear and a few months since I've received my machine & suddenly, it stopped spinning today. I don't understand and am very upset. Until now, I LOVED my machine but now, I am in tears. I can't afford another right now & the laundromat costs too much. I bought the machine because I kept spraining fingers from wringing out clothes by hand and mow, what am I to do?
UPDATE 5 27 14:  I recommend the following.  The two together have made my life easier.  When you get the washer, you may want to opt to glue the stick into the base.  Otherwise, you'll have to keep retightening it as it won't stay screwed in.  I just keep re-screwing it in by twisting the washer as I'm plungering the clothes.  In part because I haven't found the right adhesive.  Gorilla glue is probably what I need because the adhesive I used did not do the job.  It seems to be a glorified plunger but in retrospect, it is better than a plunger and does a decent job.  Much better than I can with a lot less pain from handwashing.

and I stil LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Nina Soft Spin Dryer!

ORIGINAL REVIEW:  I sprained a few fingers trying to wring out laundry by hand, especially bulky things like pants and lightweight blankets.  Even my toddler's clothing were hard to wring out without having them drip everywhere.  I have to wash frequently in the tub and sink because I can no longer afford regular trips to the laundromat (thanks recession, 16 month lay-off and finding a new job paying more than 1/3 less - - way to go!  Yes, I'm still angry, 3 years later).

Now I only have to go when the clothes start getting dingy.  Between machine washes, I hand wash and put them in this baby, spin for a few minutes and can then hang them up anywhere in the apartment because the clothes get as dry or drier than the spin cycle of a washing machine.  I didn't like the price but the machine works and is a godsend for me.  Now, I can wash a pair of work pants and not worry about them not getting dry by morning.

Before I purchased this, sometimes my clothes would not dry overnight in the winter.  Now, EVERYTHING i've handwashed has dried by morning on the coldest winter nights.  My apartment is usually not very warm because heat costs money so I tend to use humidifiers and lower the furnace, which is often on the blink anyway.

I recommend this machine to everyone who handwashes, especially in bulk quantities and has no dryer or no room for a washer/dryer in their tiny apartment.  I place a sorbent pad and plastic shoebox under the spout to catch the water.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS MACHINE!!!!!
