Product review (4 stars): Great washer for a tiny apartment!
This has made my life so much easier! I hated having to go to the laundry mat two or three times a week to wash my gym clothes (and let's face it, that's expensive) Now I get home from the gym, throw my clothes in the washer and run it while I'm showering. My clothes are almost always dry the next morning when I'm ready to pack my gym bag the next day!

Pros : cheaper than using the laundry mat (I got mine 6 months ago and I have probably saved half the cost of the machine already), saves time once you get in the habit of using it regularly, avoids the risks of stains you have when using a laundry mat, cleans clothing well, quiet, easy to use.

Cons : Lint, wrinkles.

Tips : Use laundry bags! I went to the local discount retailers and bought several nice laundry bags to wash my sweaters, long sleeve shirts and anything with straps or hooks. This keeps these items from tangling with anything else in the washer and stretching out. The laundry bags also keep some of the lint off of clothing and make using the lint brush easier. Make sure you have a lint trap in the drain that you are draining in to, and clean it regularly or you will land up spending way too much on unclogging your drain! I installed drying racks over my baseboard heaters in the bedroom (above my head height, but within easy arms reach) to help dry my clothes and it has helped a great deal. I got mine at Ikea, but I'm sure there are others out there. If you use the machine every day, or nearly that, you won't have big piles built up. This machine isn't good if you only want to do laundry once a week, it will take you longer than you want it to, but it's a great every day helper.
