Product review (4 stars): Beats the laundromat
After I ACTUALLY READ THE DIRECTIONS about water level and weight of clothes it could handle, it worked great. It won't replace a traditional washer for ease of use but it's better than hand washing or the Laundromat if you don't have or can't install a washer.

1)Cleans clothes great - if you don't overload it.  800g is the max clothing weight - that's about 1.75 lbs (one large bath towel, a nice armful of undies or assorted hand towels, 1 king sized sheet even washed well). Too much weight or compression in the bucket will stall the motor and eventually burn it out.

2)Beats hand washing - you can do other stuff while it washes and save your hands & back.

3)Lets you use your time - the cycles run up to 15 minutes, I set a timer and do other stuff while it washes. The laundry becomes a secondary activity - I don't mind the multiple small loads and time it takes as I'm busy with other things.

4)Beats the laundromat - I can wash multiple loads while I'm at home and send the larger items out to laundry service as needed. And at $45, it equals less than one month's cost at the Laundromat.

TIPS:

It rinses well.  After draining wash water, 9 minute rinse with softener, drain, 15 minute final rinse.

A spin dryer works well with this and saves hand cramps.

Easier to fill with faucet hose attachment or hand shower.

A towel underneath can stabilize and absorb drips.

I've ordered a hand operated syphon pump for less than $10 (the kind for fish tanks) to drain the water from the bucket.

When you think it's a pain, remember how it feels lugging stuff to the Laundromat.
