Product review (5 stars): LOVE This Mini Washer!
Wow! So happy I bought this! While it looks kind of like a toy (ala easy bake oven haha), it is anything but a toy! I cannot use public laundry facilities due to chemicals, detergents, and dryer sheets etc., so I got this to use in my living space/artist studio. I made an adapter (see videos on Amazon from users who show you how to do it) to hook it on to the water hose in my shower, and then I put it on chairs to drain the grey water into my bathtub using the gravity type of drain. I can't tell you how this has save me and my health issues! The load capacity is about half or less that of a normal washer, but that's okay for me. The motor is powerful and spins the cloths almost dry before I hang them on a clothes rack to dry. (My next purchase might be a small portable dryer to go with this washer). For the price ($100 when I bought it) you cannot go wrong! The only thing I cannot wash is large blankets or bedding or large heavy towels. I can wash bed sheets and regular bath towels just fine. It has a variable timer for wash and spin, but it is not based on actual time, it is numbered 1 through 15 (i.e.: it is not actually fifteen minutes, but I've never timed the cycle lengths). I HIGHLY recommend this little lightweight washer to use in dorm rooms, apartments or for anyone who suffers from multiple chemical sensitivities or similar illness and wants to be able to do laundry in a small space. It is so lightweight I can lift it up and down from chairs. (I while eventually get a rack on wheels that I can set it on and roll to and from the bathroom.) I suggest watching the customer review videos for more information.
