Product review (5 stars): Small but unexpectedly effective
I just got this spinner today and had to try it out right away. It doesn't hold much - a large bath towel or a couple of tee shirts and a few socks, but I was surprised at how well it works. After a 2 minute spin my dripping wet bath towel came out only damp. Same for the clothes. Everything still needs to be hung up to dry, but there's no dripping and they should take a fraction of the drying time compared to hand-wringing. At only a couple of minutes per load, it's no problem to do several loads.

Mine arrived with the stabilizing plastic piece on the bottom already off, maybe having never been placed properly. The machine still works fine so far, though.

Be sure to completely drain the tube before putting it away or you may get some spilling, by the way. Also, it does tend to vibrate and 'walk' at the beginning and ending of its spin cycle. I just put my hand on top to steady it until it settles down, and keep an ear out for vibration when it finishes.

This is a perfect laundry aid for someone like me who's single, lives in a New York City apartment, and hates laundromats.
