Product review (4 stars): Great
This machine is easy to use. I use it to wash and rinse my cloths. I put industrial strength velcro (with the sticky back) on the bucket and lid and use that to keep the lid from falling off when emptying the water. After the water drains I take off the lid and add fresh water and run a short 5 minute cycle...I do this twice. I then take the unit upstairs; sqeeze out the small items and take the larger cloths, throw them over a towel bar in half and twist them to wring out the excess water. Then I place the cloths on hangers over the tub on a seperate shower rod and turn a tall fan on to help things dry.  Everything is dry within four hours. Beats going to the laundrymat during cold minnesota winters.
