Product review (5 stars): little workhorse
I chose this instead of the Basecamp, because this one holds 25% more.  Glad I did.  It works flawlessly.  The hose is fine.  Real easy to empty and rinse out.  I like that I can add water, move the clothes around while it's running.  I can attest to the fact that it keeps on running, even with water slopped all over the place.  I washed outside, so I wasn't too careful.  Also, the machine never walked even a fraction of an inch.  I had it on my Keter work table, which has a nonskid surface and a nice shelf to hold laundry supplies.

One thing I did was add a small clip to the tiny ring holding the hose.  Keeps the hose in place.  It insisted on popping out of that holder.

Also, First&Best did a five star job shipping fast and packing beautifully.
