This machine will save us trips to the laundry. It washes really well and is easy to use. I took off one star for the hose that is included for the water intake. It’s very flimsy and didn’t fit our taps. Buy another one for sure!

Use it at the cabin works great

The unit requires purchase of a small piece of meshing for the filter. Open it up and place a piece in made to fit! I noticed a lot of complaints that it didn’t catch any lint, but this did the trick for a purchase of under $5.00! Other than that, the unit is awesome, as I had an old 60’s model way back when, and I liked that too! Yes it’s not fully automatic, but you can reuse water if the load before wasn’t that dirty. You also use less soap and fabric softener too. You can’t obviously use boiling water as it’s plastic, but you can use warm to hot water. Just use common sense. If it’s too hot for your hand, then it’s too hot for plastic. Then it works fine! It’s also light enough to pick up, as I use mine in the bathtub. The pump and spinner also work great!!! I’m very happy!!!

I was so disappointed in this washer.. it is literally a step up fr a wringer washer. This is good for a camper.. but not a home. There is way to much hands on. 1st step.. fill washer- wash, then unhook intake hose connect to drain hose drain. Then take soaking wet clothes like 3-4 pieces at a time put in spinner.. repeat till all clothes done. The discount inlet hose from drain fill washer- again put clothes back in rewash with fabric softer.. then disconnect intake to drain.. put in ringer again.. then dry.. this is insane I get soak taking out drenched clothes and separating them to put in spinner.. plus the middle knob is extremely hard to turn.. the intake hose is very cheap and will wear out quickly. The wash bin is big.. put the spin cycle is so loud it sounds like a sledgehammer pounding. Very loud?? The round thing put on top of clothes just flyes around in there. The washer is very light weight so easy to move. Its ideal for the outdoors.. but not in the home..
I returned the item.. the company I bought it was great .. great communication, quick answer, and quick refund. I recommend the company.

I’ve had this thing for almost a month and I can say I absolutely adore it. As recommended by other reviews, I bought a universal drain hose and that works great for sticking into the drainage that was already set up in my wash house. The universal drain extension is also great for in home if you want the machine set up in one place without having to move it. Just get a drain filter for the end so you dont have hair going down your bathtub drain.
As for using the machine itself, the middle nob to set to drain is hard to turn, but dont feel like youre going to break it, it’s supposed to be that way. Here’s how I use this machine:
1: throw clothes in washer
2: add detergent on top
3: add water (connect inlet hose to washing side, not spinner side if possible) Do not skimp on the water. It will not automatically sense how much water you need and the clothes need enough room to move.
4: set timer for 15 minutes
5: when done, drain and either repeat steps 2 – 4 if clothes were super dirty or repeat steps 3 – 4 when you just need to rinse soap out.
6: drain
7: move to spinner. You wont fit all of the clothes if you have a full load so favor smaller loads if possible. This is not the machine where you have 5 kids and 4 adults and wait till the end of the week and expect to do anything other than washing clothes.
8: Set timer for 5 minutes. If you dont have a dryer, repeat 2 or 3 times for basically fully dry clothes. The clothes should be damp to dry after the first time depending on item.
Is this as good as a modern washer? I would say it’s just different. If you value throwing the clothes in and walking away, this isn’t for you. If you value your clothes being done faster and spending less on a machine, this is great, especially if you don’t have large loads of laundry. It just takes a little more work. I personally like that my clothes are basically dry once theyre out of the spinner so that they spend less time in the dryer.
Last note: I use tide free and gentle. In the big container with the dispenser. Click the dispenser once. Quickly, dont hold it. “But Jay,” I hear you say, “That’s not enough soap!” Yes it is. For a half load, I would argue you may need to rince twice. Stop overusing soap, it’s gonna make your clothes feel weird.
Durability: It’s plastic. Don’t put boiling water in here. It’s as durable as plastic gets.
Noise level: Loud, but I don’t mind it. I can hear it in the wash house from across the yard. The nobs make a clicking noise like a kitchen timer.
Weight: I have mild joint issues and as long as this thing is empty, I can lift it easily. It’s just a bit cumbersome, but it’s a freaking washing machine. If you can lift a medium sized dog, you can probably lift this machine.
Tldr: If you live in an rv, mobile home, or just live in the middle of nowhere and need a cheap washer, this is great. This is not a set it and forget it machine, so pull up a chair.

SUPER EASY TO USE!! This thing is a mighty little machine with a rudimentary design that allows each side to perform one function which it performs VERY WELL! Lots of power, simplistic functionality and design. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I like it. clean like a big machine. some more work to do vs automatic one but the bin is bigger than small automatic one. its not a highest quality material but no problem so far. easy to use. drain pump is powerfull.
the dry drum is noisy if you use water in to rinse

Ordered it and it came cracked on the cover for knobs, but super easy fix with super glue and looks like nothing happened.
Works great and the spin on it is super fast leaving the clothes really drained. Nice size and was expecting it to be a big.
Just remember the left side has a drain pump and when you’re spinning your clothes after, it will drain out the tube. Make sure you have something or somewhere for the tube to get the water out. I wet my rug area a bit from not realizing it would do that. But it’s awesome. I was able to wash a lot more clothes than I did from my previous machine.
I do hate watching long sleeves or pants because it tangles up. Laundry mesh bags are recommended for that issue. 🙂
