Great product for its size. The spinner is a little weak, but all in all great!

Update: I got a 12" milk crate to set it on & it was perfect! Can drop the drainage hose & forget it. It doesn't move around on the crate & no worry it's gonna vibrate off & I didn't need to tie it on either.Original review: Oh my gosh! I had been using a Laundry Pod hand crank washer w/ ok results. That worked for 1 full set of clothes (top & pants/undergarments/ dish rags & cleaning rags) being washed each day. But it wasn't good for more if I got behind & skipped a day. I did good w/ the Pod tho. Eventually my arthritis started hurting more & I knew I needed a less physical option for any times of inflammation or if I was sick or injured for a little while. Got this & tried it today & was in LOVE w/ it immediately!!! It churns the clothes as good as my much bigger RCA portable automatic washer downstairs does! I had to stop using the one downstairs due to a leak I need to get fixed (& I will since that is a terrific portable washer that does much more in a load & spins them out as well as a full size washer does). So this tiny washer is the size of a 5 gal bucket w/ the motor in the bottom part of it. It's as powerful as my larger washer. It sits well in the bathtub, but if sitting on anything to raise it up higher, it will need to be anchored so it doesn't vibrate off. Someone said sitting something heavy on it will work but I haven't tried that to see. I had no trouble w/ it sitting directly in the bathtub. I did need to lower the drain hose just long enough to empty half the water out, then wait for that to run down the tub drain before emptying the other half of the water out. This was to prevent the water level in the bathtub from reaching high enough to touch the bottom of the little washer where the motor is located (I have a slow drain). The rubber feet keep the washer raised enough to do this safely. Otherwise, the washer needs to be raised up & sitting on a milk crate or something before draining the wash water. Some people didn't like the gravity drainage hose, but it works just fine & quickly. I like that I don't have a pump to go bad on it, so I prefer this way. It uses between 1-2 gal's of water & I can wash 2 loads using the same water before draining it. I can usually rinse both loads using the same rinse water too. Then I can use the same rinse water as my next soapy wash water for my next wash. I like the ease of the water saving & it's less work for me this way too. I just used a little dish soap in it & it was great. Go very light on soap or you'll be rinsing over & over again. I wish it had a lint trap!!! Nothing to get pet hair off the wet clothes w/o a lint trap. So that's a downside w/ these type little washers. As far as spinning the clothes out, I found from using the Laundry Pod previous to this little washer that it's fairly easy to put the wet stuff in the little basket (comes w/ the washer). Put the basket in a little bucket or even in the sink. Push down on the clothes in the basket & that easily gets as much water out of them as wringing does w/o all the work or strain of wringing. I haven't tried to spin anything using the basket in the empty washer yet as I just didn't need to & hung them up outside after doing the "basket wringing method" I just described (this also saves the motor for actual washing & should extend the life of the washer, right?). I'll update this review if I do try the spin cycle & also if this little washer dies or breaks on me so people can see how long it lasted. My hope is it will last a few yrs if taken care of & not abused. I hope it's built well. This is a definite upgrade from the Laundry Pod, but the Pod won't break down either. I think I'll use the Pod to presoak the hard stuff & use this one to actually do the washing. So glad I got it! It's a real workhorse! And it's cute & takes up virtually no space so it's practical for tiny homes, campers, cabins, RV's, apartments, & dorm rooms. So lightweight too. I like that I can set the wash timer & go do other things & not worry or hurry back to it. It just stops @ the end of the time I set it to & waits til I come back to it. This & re-using the water as described earlier makes it very convenient to use w/o a lot of work or waste. It holds a surprising amt of laundry for a tiny washer. It can do a thick bath towel easily (& those get heavy in water). It does my jeans & a shirt easily too, or 2 lightweight pants or 3 shirts & underwear in a load (all extra lg sizes) w/o bogging down the motor. It can do my tennis shoes, but I think 1 shoe @ a time is best for those. I can do a lot of laundry w/o taking a lot of my time w/ this little washer & I was very surprised by that. It's just a matter of using it smarter, not harder. I'm so in love w/ this little washer that if it isn't built well & breaks down, I'll be heartbroken! It's a game changer for me & so easy on me & my arthritis. If it lasts a long time it certainly deserves 5 stars. I haven't had it long enough to know how long it'll last yet.

I know it's small but can only wash 2 or 3 items at a time. The built in dryer doesn't really get the water out. You have to hold it or it will rumble all over. The dryer spin basket does not lock into bottom and keeps flying odd when trying to spin dry. Over all poor performance and just poorly made.

I was super excited when it came. Well packaged, and quick. Only a few days, not prime. I could not wait to test it, so I added 2 shirts and a sock. It worked perfectly. Then, I changed the water and prepared for the next load. I added 2 shirts and a small towel. I started it up and all my excitement went out the door. It stopped working. I was sad, mad and thought I just wasted $70. About 3 hours went by and I said nope, I do not accept that this just washed 3 things and I wasted my cash. So I set out to figure what was wrong. I read the instructions. Only about 8 times. So I put everything back into place and guess what?! It started up again. My excitement came back to me instantly. But I still did not get why it stopped. So I figured it out, after another 2 hours. The tube the you use to add water in from the sink, must always stay in place. Odd since I wasn't even using the tube to fill my washer. Well, I didn't build it, so I tested it out without the tube, and it does not work. But when the tube is in place, it works perfectly. Shrugs. So I have washed since then 3 loads of my own clothes, and two bags worth of my pet's blankets. I would say, now that I understand this little washer, it's worth the money and very helpful. I am happy I bought it and would tell others to look into it if they needed something like this. Saves my back from breaking. Oh, and the spinner is awesome. Takes out SO MUCH extra water and helps your clothes to dry faster. The drain tube is amazing, ALL the water comes out, you will not have to tilt the washer And you should use very little soap, about a cap full is enough, more than that and you will have too much suds. My back is so grateful for this washer, it's definitely my little helper. When spinning, you will have to hold it in place or put something on top, that thing is like the little engine that could, with no water in there to balance it, it just wants to run off on ya. Most importantly, it will clean your clothes properly.

I love but only down fall of this washer is that it doesn’t drain the water really well, but to wash small items like underwears, socks and bras it’s perfect. Very satisfied
