Product review (5 stars): Fantastic washing machine but delivery was on the slow side.
I've only had my panda XBP45 for less than 6 hours and already it has successfully done 6 loads of washing. Do not let this systems size put you off as it can easily hold 4 towels, couple pairs of jeans and other garments in the same wash. Couple of things I have noticed...

1. Do NOT over fill the spin section. I washed a full set of queen sheets and placed them both in the spin. The Panda spun them well but I noticed a table spoon of water under the machine. Upon closer inspection I noticed what appear to be drainage holes under the machine. The second time I spun those sheets I did them one at a time and no further leaks have appeared.

2. If you are someone living in an apartment that does not allow washers I can assure you the packaging for this machine has the word Panda stamped on the front of the box. Unless your landlord is aware what that could mean you should have no problems.

3. While this machine is fairly quiet the spin cycle is a little on the noisy side. I would imagine living in a ground floor apartment you would get away with running this machine without upsetting your neighbors. However on other levels of an apartment you will almost certainly alert the neighbors to the fact that you have a washing machine going.

In my own situation I live in a small property with my hubby and this machine is just perfect for the two of us. It cleans my clothes in under 10 mins  and with the spin dry Is fantastic! 20 mins in the sunlight is all it took for my clothes to be perfectly dry after the wash and spin.

My only criticism is that it took 10 days from payment until I actually received the machine. In fairness to the seller and Amazon I was informed of the delivery dates etc before I purchased but when you consider I ordered and paid for the item on Friday 13th and received it on the 23rd I find that in this day and age a little disappointing.

The Panda however is worth its weight in gold! 5 stars to my new washer.
