Product review (3 stars): okay
I have had this machine for about 1 year now.
Pros:
1. It is nice to have a washing machine when there is no hookup. Our apartment doesn't have hookups for both a dishwasher AND a washing machine, so this washing machine goes in our bathroom and works well there.
2. You don't have to use the laundrymat.
3. It wrings out clothes very well. They are almost dry when they come out!
4. It finishes a cycle fairly quickly.
5. It is fairly quiet.

Cons:
1. This machine has to be babysat. It tends to over balance VERY easily even with 1 or 2 items. It will fill up and spin continously over and over to help dislodge the clothes until either you manually fix the clothes or it shuts off and beeps. A waste of water and fabric softener.
2. Clothes get stretched out. If you don't have a dryer, your clothes will eventually be too big for you!!!
3. The normal cycle has a short cycle for washing clothes but will rinse them out too many times. I use the heavy cycle and that seems to clean clothes better.
4. You need HE detergent or use a fabric softener to control the amount of suds generated.
5. Sometimes the machine will continously drain and not fill up. You have to make sure the drain pipe is not below the fill line.
