Product review (5 stars): Love MY Panda
Ok I finally got my Panda today. This is how it went. Put a pair of sweat pants, one polo shirt, a nightgown, 4 pr socks and a pair of shorts. I think I could have put more but this was my first load. Added the water per directions and turned on to wash. Wash cycle I chose was 9 min. After wash I turned it to drain. Add water to rinse. Then drain. You need to slightly squeeze excess water before you put in spin but twisting and heavy squeezing is not needed. Then put into the spin side. I put the polo shirt in and put spin 1 min. and it was pretty dry. I was amazed that it did not require iron. At this point I think it will work for us. I haven't washed anything heavy like jeans yet but when I do I will update again. Washer uses low suds detergent. I will sit it in front of shower when using to make it easier for filling and draining. And of course a strainer on drain just in case there is lint in water. Probably could put a nylon over end of hose to catch anything. At this point I would have to give it 5 stars. It does everything that it says it will. Small loads but that is ok with me. Better than washing by hand because you don't have to wring the clothes and have dripping wet clothes hanging
