Product review (5 stars): This is a total game changer for my SPORTS family
My daughter plays competition softball and we travel to tournaments across state lines frequently.  Washing uniforms is always a concern because not all hotels have laundry facilities, there isn't always a nearby laundromat thats open when you are off the field for the day, and who wants to miss your kids game to wash stinky socks?  This machine is SMALL BUT MIGHTY.  I cant believe how well it cleans - on VERY LITTLE detergent.  I wouldnt recommend using softener, because that would add another cycle-through.  And the spinner - AMAZING!  There is no way any human could ever hand wring clothes to get them as dry as the spinner does.  Just be careful not to have it out of balance, or your machine will make a ton of noise and it won't work too well.  We filled ours with a 5 gallon bucket from the hotel bath tub and drained it into the shower pan.
