Product review (5 stars): ... a year now and it is still holding up great! It is perfect for small loads
We have had our washing machine for about a year now and it is still holding up great! It is perfect for small loads, but we are surprised at how much it routinely washes as we get lazy and stick a full week's worth of clothing in it (two adults- no kids, so our week's worth of clothing is less than most households'). We read the reviews before buying so we have been careful not to leave the pump on for too long and it is still working just fine!
It is noisy, especially as it starts spinning. We've had to explain what's happening to our neighbors because it scared them the first time we used it. We recommend it to our friends whenever it comes up.
