Product review (1 stars): A total piece of junk compared to the screw-top model
Update 2/1/18: Took me (us) over a week to get lid removed. Everyone tried. We were ready to take a sledgehammer to it. Of course, during that time, the return window closed.
----------------------------
I have owned one of these for years and loved it. However, I had the screw-top model. I have a large Cabrio washer/dryer set but sometimes I don't want to use my washer.

I decided to go with this model over a screw-top model made by another company based upon reviews stating parts were missing.

WOW, was that a whopping mistake. This thing is a piece of junk. Poor instructions, parts don't fit no matter what I do, parts fall of constantly, it leaks, it is unstable, flimsy and doesn't do anywhere near as good as my old screw-top model.

The lid is horrible:
1. Want to use OxiClean in this? It just spews out once it creates a little pressure.
2. Difficult to get the lid ON/OFF.

The stand:
1. The parts that actually went together fall off every time I use it. Several leg tabs have gone down the drain.
2. It is so flimsy I must stabilize it with my feet to turn it.
3. The handle does not fit over the metal part and detaches frequently.
4. Where does the round circular plastic tab go?
5. The drain is difficult to attach and detaches frequently.

Just a whopping piece of junk. I am gonna try the EcoWash and hope that they send all the parts.
