SUPER DEAL Portable Washing Machine 17.6 lbs Twin Tub Compact Washer, Washing and Spinner Cycle Combo for Apartment, Camping, College, Dorms and RV, Timer Control, Gravity Drain and Inlet Water Hose

The media could not be loaded. Amazing that FedEx delivered it early. The box was padded with Styrofoam, and the machine itself is incredibly light weight. It is a decent size, good for small spaces if you have the right space for it. There's two water intake valves, one on either side, and although the intake hose fits the machine, it does not fit any faucets in the house and you'd have to sit and hold it there and wait for it to fill up. A shower hose works well. It does become a decent bit heavier once the water is added so I'd recommend having it in the spot you want before filling it. I would recommend buying an extension cord because the power cord is rather short, and may not reach an outlet from the spot you want the machine. For me, unfortunately, the best spot for the machine was on top of my toilet, the only reason being that the drain is gravity based. As I said, earlier, it's a decent size but having the right spot is going to be hard. I used a tide pod for my first load, just because that's what I have. It appears to be the right amount of soap. After the wash cycle you are going to have to drain out that dirty water and refill it with clean water for the rinse. After the rinse cycle, be prepared to do your dry load in portions, the dryer isn't big but it is very very fast and efficient.Some downsides, to buying but it's mostly just placement. Otherwise it's basically exactly what I was looking for; a nice easy way to do laundry inside my apartment without having to walk and pay at the laundromat.Update:I used it for a few days and realized that the washer wasn't spinning the way it was supposed to, which I noticed a few other people had mentioned in their reviews. I did some digging into the machine and I found the issue, the belt inside the machine was not on all the way. I put the belt on and tightened all of the nuts and bolts to make sure nothing else could come undone. Hasn't had an issue since and all I had to do was remove the back panel.

I am Single and Wash One (1) Load of Clothes each and Most Every Morning (what I wore the Previous Day).For Years, I Used a "Wonder Wash" and a Hand Wringer, but saw an Online Video about this Unit - and I Liked what I saw. So I Researched, Researched and Researched some more - this and all Similar Units to Decide which one I would get. Ultimately, I found this one to have the Best Reviews - and again... I liked the Video. So I Purchased it about 11 Months Ago, however...Recently, it Stopped Working. Both the Washer - and the Spinner - Simultaneously. So I Removed the Back Cover to See if there was a "Reset Switch/Button" - which there wasn't. But there "Is" a Capacitor - which I "Believe" Probably is what Failed.So as the Unit had a "One Year Warranty", it was Still under Warranty. Subsequently, Amazon Contacted the Seller (I couldn't find any "Contact Seller Links") and after some "Back and Forth", they Ultimately Agreed to Send me a "Replacement Unit". I was Extremely Skeptical due to the "Hoops" I had to Go Through during our Communications, but... Once they Agreed to send me the Replacement Unit - I Actually Received it within a Few Days (Today).I haven't Plugged this one in yet, but it Arrived in Great (New) Condition and Packaging - and I'm Betting that it will be Just Fine - which is why I'm Already Writing this Review before Actually Using it (the Replacement Unit).The Unit itself "Works Like a Champ" for Small Loads (Pants, Shirt, Socks, etc...) - and - it's "Spinner" Dries my Clothes Far Better (Drier) than my Wringer. It was also 100% Reliable for "Daily Use" - until it Quit on me. I would Highly Recommend this Unit - from this Seller - for anyone Looking for a Small "Manual" Washer. I've even Washed my Sheets (one at a Time) and my "LARGE" Bath Towel (by itself) in it - Multiple Times - and have Never Experienced any Negative Issues.Just be Certain to "Pack" the Spinner so No Items are "Above the Spinning Basket" as they Can/Will "Get Caught" in the "Groove Above" the Basket. I Learned this a Long Time Ago and Always Make Certain the "Spinner Items" are Below the Top of the Basket "Before" I Turn it On. Again... It has "Always" Worked "Like a Champ" - until (of course) it Quit.Bottom Line... If you're "In the Market" for a Small, Reliable and Light Washer/Wringer - then "This" is the Unit to Get. And to Top it Off... The Chinese Seller (after some "Conversation") "will" (at least for me) Honor their Warranty. <thumbs up>========================Next Morning Update:Replacement Unit is WORKING LIKE A CHAMP (like the Original) !
