Product review (4 stars): I really really love my Panda
For the most part, I really really love my Panda. It is a quick and efficient little washer. It is a lot of work, in the sense that it is all manual. Draining the water, ringing out the clothes, rinsing the clothes and repeating the process. The labor of it doesn't bother me however. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because sometimes the spinner acts a little funky. I am very careful about not overloading the spinner, but at times I feel as if it gets a little off even if it is underloaded too. Instead of a low hum caused by the spinner when it operates properly, it is this loud banging, totally off kilter, the whole thing might just bounce away, mess. When this happens, I immediately shut it off let it come to a complete stop rearrange it a bit and restart it., and it usually will work just fine. I know the spinner is not overloaded, and I try to be aware of filling it evenly, but still every once in awhile, this occurs. It doesn't take away from how much I love my panda, but I just thought I would share!
