Product review (5 stars): Glad I took the chance.
I have had a lot of concern before purchasing this product.  But after the positive reviews on amazon, I took a chance, and I am very glad that I did.
The quick connector works very well.
As others have stated, you need to buy a Y hose for this machine to work correctly.
The unit is a lot heavier than expected, and is not really portable.  I just keep mine situated in the bathroom.
It can hold a lot more clothes than you'd expect, but is still a little smaller than the general small laundry machines you see at the laundromat.
I love not having to go to the laundromat.
I have had this for about 2 months, and have done about 20 washes so far, and everything is still good.
This product is awesome.
