5.0 out of 5 stars Overall, pretty happy with the machine. Easy to use if you know what you're doing.

I use our bathroom sponge to balance the machine and ease vibrations. I also went to my hardware store and bought a showerhead diverter, a 30-in 1/2" faucet supply hose, and a brass "barbed" adaptor. *Ensure these all connect in the store before purchase!* Sadly, 8 forgot the hose that came with the package, but I zip-tied it a couple times to get a decent seal. I always leave a little slack so any stray leaks don't get on the machine. Makes life easier just turning on the shower and filling/rinsing the machine this way. Cost of this was $30 but worth it! I am a 6'5" guy and I threw my back out filling the machine over and over. Plus, you can do a rinse and spin to get the suds out.With this machine, you must always think "less is more" and if it looks like enough, it's already too much. A decent load, to measure, is whatever can fit in the spin basket plus a one extra, light thing. When the wash cycle is going, you want to see a vortex... a whirlpool effect. If your clothes are floating and spinning at the top struggling to be washed, you've overloaded. Pull out items one by one until you get that whirlpool.You can spin and wash at the same time. The spinner drains regardless of the middle knob is set to drain, and if you overfill the wash tub it will drain whatever overflows. Plan this accordingly.Noise is compareble to an AC unit, and there are vibrations depending on where you place it and how level it is. I use a sponge balance and absorb some vibrations. Not fancy, but works.I reuse my hot water, topping off the wash tub each time. The water may look gross but it's fine as there's soap already in it. Dry cleaners reuse their chemical wash hundreds of times over and your clothes come out fine, plus you'll rinse it all. My whites come out whiter than the commercial washers too, so you're saving money and resources.I'm still very happy!***Where do I start? Well, I have spent a good portion of the few weeks looking at portable washing solutions as my apartment does not have a washer set-up, and I got tired of using the public washers in my apartment community. All the coins needed, going back and forth, waiting for machines to open, ensuring I had enough quarters at the time, and the entire day had to be devoted to laundry more often than not.So, I shopped around, reading reviews and watching videos of different machines. This one stuck out as it's reasonably affordable and does a great job, according to reviews. I live in the Bay Area and this ships for Los Angeles, so I got it within a couple days (excluding a holiday and weekend). The box was in good shape and unclipped the ties. A whiff of "new plastic" and staring in awe, there it was, just as in the pictures. Unboxing was easy, unclip the ties and lift the top part off. A brand-new washer!I grabbed the instruction manual and flipped through it. As other have joked on here, it's in Engrish with such gems as "choke the dial" and "put staff not under." I tossed it aside because it's useless, most reviews give you the rundown. Here's mine, if you need it:Step 1: Place a splash of soap, no more than a heaping tablespoon's worth or the soap will take forever to rinse out. You don't need to measure, but just guess and be cautious.Step 2: Place clothing in machine, one item at a time. Sort your items keeping towels in one load, basics in another, denim in another, and so on. Fill the machine just over half full with basics. Towels and denim should be washed in smaller loads as they're heavier fabrics.Step 3: Ensure middle dial is set to "Normal" or "Soft" and fill with water. The "inlet hose" is useless out of the box as you need an adaptor that the manufacturer assumed you had. One end has a rubber gasket and the other end does not. The gasket end is the part that would go to an adaptor, the gasket-less end goes to the machine. Why? Because if you hook the gasket to the machine, it's harder than heck to get it off without nearly destroying the hose. During the inaugural load, I did not have an adaptor, so I filled the wash basin with a bucket. Fill just slightly over half-full, any more will splash out during the agitation cycle.Step 4: Check to see of the machine is plugged in. I forgot to do this and sat there confused. Turn the "Wash" dial to 15 minutes and the machine will hum to life. Let the machine do its thing and come back when it is done. It doesn't make any alarm when it's done, just so you know.Step 5: You may come back to, what I would describe as a burning smell. I was alarmed at first but nothing was wrong, it's "new motor smell." Turn the middle dial to drain and the water will come pouring out of the drain hose. There is no pump, so try to have the machine elevated or set in your bathtub.Step 6: Open the spinner basin and place a few items in, ensuring that it evenly loaded (about half of the wash load). Place the plastic insert in the bin on top of the laundry, close the lids. Is the middle dial still set to drain? Good. Leave it. Turn the "Spin" dial to 5. If you have the "inlet hose" hooked to an adaptor, this is where you can do a spin and rinse. If not, you can spin the suds out and wash again in clean water real fast, then repeat the spin. The machine will vibrate during the spin, and if it vibrates to a point where you think it is too much, stop the spin cycle and rearrange your items. Everything comes out damp, not wet. Like others have said: "About 90% dry."When putting away the machine, tilt it slightly toward the direction of the drainage hose to get the rest of the water out. I set the machine aside with the lids open as to prevent a musty smell in the future. I will say this: Don't overwhelm the machine. Do a couple washes and allow the machine to cool and rest for a couple hours, say, while your laundry is drying on a rack. If you overexert the machine, it will break. EEK! It's more for daily loads (every day or every other day) than for a single day of wash ("laundry day").It's a great compact machine that gets your laundry as clean as most large washing machines. It takes a bit more effort on your part to tend to each load, but it's easier than running up and down flights of stairs, digging in the sofa for coins, and fighting over the next machine. I plan on finding a cart to place this on so I can store it easier, and find an adaptor that will fit the inlet hose.I will update this as time goes on. It's a really simple machine, gets the clothes clean, and I am saving some money from the get go compared to the few bucks it takes each wash in the laundromat.
5.0 out of 5 stars Saves Time And Money!!!
It looks like a big toy. I initially checked it out by simply looking it over and examining the tubing. I looked at the book and got out a magnifying glass to try to read it. In the end, I just tossed the book aside (but did save it for future reference) and relied on previous reviews for set up and use. It came in perfect condition and did not appear damaged, dented or otherwise used/misused during manufacture, assembly, packaging or shipping. It seemed really light-weight and it is!My husband put it in the guest bathroom bathtub on a plastic platform. It wobbled, so we just sat it in the tub and away we went. I haven’t had a problem doing it this way, but use your own judgement for your own situation. It was plugged into to a thick orange extension cord. While not pretty, it is functional and suits my situation. Again, use your judgement for your situation. I put in what I estimated to be a load of clothes, added soap (1 TB powder) and oxygen bleach (1 TB off brand oxyclean.) I’m strictly guessing on what I needed and figured I could adjust it on later loads. I then added the water, set the timer and let it run. It ran just fine. The spinner is amazing. I put about half of the load in it and set it on 2 minutes. It ran just fine.On the advice of a previous reviewer, I didn’t bother with the water inlet tube. I threw it out, which was good advice in my situation. I have a shower head that can be used as a hand-held, so I used that to add the water. If I didn’t have one, I would have either purchased one or bought adapters. The shower head that can be used as a hand-held seems like the easiest way to go. Previous reviewers’ instructions worked like a charm.I have a full size HE washer and full size dryer, so why in the world would anyone buy something like this? Simply put, the HE washing machine doesn’t clean clothes and it takes an extremely long time to complete a load of clothes. Quick washes take over an hour. Yes, I know how to use it and it is functioning as it was designed to function. This was a purchase made out of sheer desperation and I’m glad I did it. The only thing I have not put in this washing machine so far are bath towels, jeans and sheets. We have enough that I can wash them twice a month in the large washer. I still save time.I no longer have to wait for over an hour to do a load of clothes. Just as important, the clothes come out clean! When the big washer dies, I do not want to replace it other than with another machine just like this. If I did more than 1 load a day in this machine, I’d still save time and still have a better outcome than a full-size HE machine with no reason to swear like a drunken sailor on payday in Norfolk. I cannot stress how simple and efficient this machine is for me. It’s relatively cheap as well. I’ve done 5 loads of clothes and had this running within 30 minutes of it being out of the box. HE machine makers need to ashamed. This “toy” outshines them all. It takes very little storage room as well.One last note is to remember to turn the dial back to “Normal” or “Soft” when refilling the machine after using “Drain.” I couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t refill the first time. My brain just was not engaging, but you’ll probably only do that once! I highly recommend this little machine. It's not a set it and forget it machine, but it works better than my 2-year-old Maytag.Just wanted to add an update. I wouldn't trade this for all of the tea in China! It's still operating perfectly. If it should fail anytime soon, I'll buy another one!
4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Small Spaces – Works Better Than Expected!
I live in a tiny apartment with no laundry hookups, so I was skeptical about how well this portable washer would actually work. But after a few weeks of using it, I’m seriously impressed!The twin tub design is great—I can wash a decent load (about 12 lbs) while the spin cycle (8 lbs capacity) does a surprisingly good job getting clothes nearly dry. It’s not 100% dryer-level dry, but they come out damp enough that they air-dry super fast. Saves me so much time compared to hand-washing or lugging everything to the laundromat.Assembly was a breeze—just had to attach the drain hose, and it was ready to go. The controls are simple, and it runs quietly (no loud vibrations). I’ve used it for jeans, towels, and even bedding, and it handles everything well. The only minor thing is that the spin tub can get a little unbalanced if you overload it, but as long as you follow the weight limits, it’s fine.For the price, this little washer is a lifesaver. If you’re in a dorm, RV, or just hate laundromats, it’s totally worth it!
BEST MACHINE EVER ❤️ 😍 💖

My work offers us ONLY 2 tshirts and 1 long sleeve plus 1 polar fleece jacket ....THATS IT ! . We work 5 days on 2 tshirts and 1 long sleeve 🤭🙄...HELL NO! . I bought this washer and now when I get home my full clothing of jeans 👖, socks 🧦, tshirt 👕, bra👙 and undies all in machine clean in 15 🥰. The power of the wash is unreal that I think it's better then my big washer 😆. This spin is 5 minutes (total 20 minutes for full wash and spin ) . When you take them out they are wet but feel dry ( NOT KIDDING !). I love ❤️ this machine that I got a convenient stand and mat for it . I will not abuse this machine as putting heavy duty blankets and stuff . It's small and for quick wash. I also have a cat 🐈 and washing her carpet is so convenient and fast . Love this machine and yes I already have 3 friends who will buy within the next few days 😆🥰😍😄🐈🐸
Awesome for what it is
Let me start off by saying this thing does NOT supply heat - the dryer works by spinning. Additionally, anything thats high in lint WILL fill the lint trap faster, and get lint on your other clothes. You may not want to use brand new linty filled fabrics in this thing, do a few loads in a normal machine first to get some of it off, perhaps.I have been using this for my baby's clothes and linens and it's been a game changer. I don't worry about others' toxic detergents building up on her stuff and it hangs to dry fairly quickly. I have yet to use cloth diapers with this, but I already know the spin dryer will work well - you can turn cloth diapers inside out and have the waterproof lining inwards, so the spin cycle will pull out water and excess debris.This machine also gets stains out pretty well.BUT BE WARNED - if you presoaked something to get stains out, like with dish detergent and oil on clothes - rinse it out well before putting it in here. Even a tablespoon of soap is almost too much for this machine, so go easy on the soap.IDK if this happened with others, but my water inlet on one side was blocked, so when I went to use it, water splashed up and went all over the top of the machine - bad because there's wires underneath that section! Double check that water is able to flow with a funnel and a cup or something before attempting to jet water through the inlet. Due to my defect, they refunded me so I could replace the mini hose inside the part, so their customer service is pretty good, too.Is this a perfect machine? No. Is this a pretty great machine? Yes. I recommend for those with babies and communal laundry facilities.
Works as advertised, so far
I like this product because it does wash more in each mode, seems bigger than my old portable washer. You need very little detergent, can likely get away with 1/2 tbsp or 1 tsp. Otherwise, the speed of agitation leaves it very foamy. If that happens, I can take items out and spin for a minute, put back in the washing side. NEVER RINSE CLOTHES IN THE SPIN SIDE. I wrecked two machines this way, floods the motor so it cannot drain. If you need a rinse, rinse in the washing side. I don't care what you see or hear. Also, good idea to give the motor a break and don't run on 15 mins all the time, 9 mins is good and 6 mins for softener or rinse cycle. If heavily stained, short cycles mixed with soaking will work very well. I usually start out at 9 mins, let soak for 30 mins and agitate couple more times for 5 mins while it soaks again.Pros are that this is a light machine, has strong agitation and lint catcher. I can wash a lot of cloths in there and can wash fleece bed blankets, I sleep on a full bed size. Blankets do agitate BUT you should make sure blankets drape over the side to allow draining and you would need a bigger spin dryer as this one does not spin bigger blankets. I have a larger Panda spin dryer that spins the blankets. Take care of the motor with breaks will make it last longer and never use water to rinse stuff in the spinner, just the wash side, should last quite a while.Couple of updates, I do not mind the speed of the washer, if washing clothes they are put in a mesh bag or done in my other washer, otherwise the fast agitation means I require less soap put in. I put probably 1/4 of the level one shown on the cap for my tide.Less than ideal was the fact that even with lint filters, the one that comes with the machine and a couple of the floating ones, quite a bit of gunk went down the drain causing a couple of days of agressive plunging. Other issue with the filter in the machine, the mesh is coming unattached from the machine. I have stitched up the mesh and stitched to the holder and clipped back in. Going to keep water mostly below the machine's lint filter and rely on floating lint filters, I have attached zipties to reinforce the floating lint filters and they work fine as the foam head likes to fall off without all the reinforcement. Will also get something to collect the gunk at end of hose. I also keep drain more clear with hot but not boiling water.
Amazing product
This has been a big money saver for my family while we are RVing.spend less time at the laundry mat and more time enjoying you life. This is also an amazing product for small apartments and dorms. It's very quiet and the washability and design making the ease of use easy for anyone to use.
waiting for return to go through
this little machine is great for small spaces. However, I’m in the process of returning it and getting my money back simply because the dryer does not dry your clothes at all. I live in a one bedroom apartment with a very small bathroom. There is nowhere for me to hang dry my clothes and drying them outside is not an option seeing as I live in one of the coldest cities in Canada. The machine does an amazing job at washing the clothes and getting out all the grime, but when it comes to drying it sucks. The max time that you can set on the dryer it’s five minutes. I’ve never had clothes dry for five minutes and come out even somewhat damp. My clothes were soaked. Even after I had continuously reset the five minute timer over a span of 45 minutes, my clothes were still wet. I’m really hoping that my return goes through otherwise I’m out $270. Another thing I’ll mention is that The plug is extremely short and I needed to use an extension cord in order to have it sit in my bathtub while it was doing its thing. One last thing, mine came damaged at the back but thankfully it didn’t affect the washer. it also leaks if you try to move it at all while there is still water in the washer. I highly suggest looking for a different washer/dryer of this kind unless you live somewhere where you can hang dry your clothes.

The only thing I have not put in this washing machine so far are bath towels, jeans and sheets. We have enough that I can wash them twice a month in the large washer. I still save time.I no longer have to wait for over an hour to do a load of clothes. Just as important, the clothes come out clean! When the big washer dies, I do not want to replace it other than with another machine just like this. If I did more than 1 load a day in this machine, I’d still save time and still have a better outcome than a full-size HE machine with no reason to swear like a drunken sailor on payday in Norfolk. I cannot stress how simple and efficient this machine is for me. It’s relatively cheap as well. I’ve done 5 loads of clothes and had this running within 30 minutes of it being out of the box. HE machine makers need to ashamed. This “toy” outshines them all. It takes very little storage room as well.One last note is to remember to turn the dial back to “Normal” or “Soft” when refilling the machine after using “Drain.” I couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t refill the first time. My brain just was not engaging, but you’ll probably only do that once! I highly recommend this little machine. It's not a set it and forget it machine, but it works better than my 2-year-old Maytag.Just wanted to add an update. I wouldn't trade this for all of the tea in China! It's still operating perfectly. If it should fail anytime soon, I'll buy another one!
4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Small Spaces – Works Better Than Expected!
I live in a tiny apartment with no laundry hookups, so I was skeptical about how well this portable washer would actually work. But after a few weeks of using it, I’m seriously impressed!The twin tub design is great—I can wash a decent load (about 12 lbs) while the spin cycle (8 lbs capacity) does a surprisingly good job getting clothes nearly dry. It’s not 100% dryer-level dry, but they come out damp enough that they air-dry super fast. Saves me so much time compared to hand-washing or lugging everything to the laundromat.Assembly was a breeze—just had to attach the drain hose, and it was ready to go. The controls are simple, and it runs quietly (no loud vibrations). I’ve used it for jeans, towels, and even bedding, and it handles everything well. The only minor thing is that the spin tub can get a little unbalanced if you overload it, but as long as you follow the weight limits, it’s fine.For the price, this little washer is a lifesaver. If you’re in a dorm, RV, or just hate laundromats, it’s totally worth it!
BEST MACHINE EVER ❤️ 😍 💖
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Ok I bought this machine for instead of doing a 45 minute minimum load , this is a 15 minute load. My work offers us ONLY 2 tshirts and 1 long sleeve plus 1 polar fleece jacket ....THATS IT ! . We work 5 days on 2 tshirts and 1 long sleeve 🤭🙄...HELL NO! . I bought this washer and now when I get home my full clothing of jeans 👖, socks 🧦, tshirt 👕, bra👙 and undies all in machine clean in 15 🥰. The power of the wash is unreal that I think it's better then my big washer 😆. This spin is 5 minutes (total 20 minutes for full wash and spin ) . When you take them out they are wet but feel dry ( NOT KIDDING !). I love ❤️ this machine that I got a convenient stand and mat for it . I will not abuse this machine as putting heavy duty blankets and stuff . It's small and for quick wash. I also have a cat 🐈 and washing her carpet is so convenient and fast . Love this machine and yes I already have 3 friends who will buy within the next few days 😆🥰😍😄🐈🐸
Awesome for what it is
Let me start off by saying this thing does NOT supply heat - the dryer works by spinning. Additionally, anything thats high in lint WILL fill the lint trap faster, and get lint on your other clothes. You may not want to use brand new linty filled fabrics in this thing, do a few loads in a normal machine first to get some of it off, perhaps.I have been using this for my baby's clothes and linens and it's been a game changer. I don't worry about others' toxic detergents building up on her stuff and it hangs to dry fairly quickly. I have yet to use cloth diapers with this, but I already know the spin dryer will work well - you can turn cloth diapers inside out and have the waterproof lining inwards, so the spin cycle will pull out water and excess debris.This machine also gets stains out pretty well.BUT BE WARNED - if you presoaked something to get stains out, like with dish detergent and oil on clothes - rinse it out well before putting it in here. Even a tablespoon of soap is almost too much for this machine, so go easy on the soap.IDK if this happened with others, but my water inlet on one side was blocked, so when I went to use it, water splashed up and went all over the top of the machine - bad because there's wires underneath that section! Double check that water is able to flow with a funnel and a cup or something before attempting to jet water through the inlet. Due to my defect, they refunded me so I could replace the mini hose inside the part, so their customer service is pretty good, too.Is this a perfect machine? No. Is this a pretty great machine? Yes. I recommend for those with babies and communal laundry facilities.
Works as advertised, so far
I like this product because it does wash more in each mode, seems bigger than my old portable washer. You need very little detergent, can likely get away with 1/2 tbsp or 1 tsp. Otherwise, the speed of agitation leaves it very foamy. If that happens, I can take items out and spin for a minute, put back in the washing side. NEVER RINSE CLOTHES IN THE SPIN SIDE. I wrecked two machines this way, floods the motor so it cannot drain. If you need a rinse, rinse in the washing side. I don't care what you see or hear. Also, good idea to give the motor a break and don't run on 15 mins all the time, 9 mins is good and 6 mins for softener or rinse cycle. If heavily stained, short cycles mixed with soaking will work very well. I usually start out at 9 mins, let soak for 30 mins and agitate couple more times for 5 mins while it soaks again.Pros are that this is a light machine, has strong agitation and lint catcher. I can wash a lot of cloths in there and can wash fleece bed blankets, I sleep on a full bed size. Blankets do agitate BUT you should make sure blankets drape over the side to allow draining and you would need a bigger spin dryer as this one does not spin bigger blankets. I have a larger Panda spin dryer that spins the blankets. Take care of the motor with breaks will make it last longer and never use water to rinse stuff in the spinner, just the wash side, should last quite a while.Couple of updates, I do not mind the speed of the washer, if washing clothes they are put in a mesh bag or done in my other washer, otherwise the fast agitation means I require less soap put in. I put probably 1/4 of the level one shown on the cap for my tide.Less than ideal was the fact that even with lint filters, the one that comes with the machine and a couple of the floating ones, quite a bit of gunk went down the drain causing a couple of days of agressive plunging. Other issue with the filter in the machine, the mesh is coming unattached from the machine. I have stitched up the mesh and stitched to the holder and clipped back in. Going to keep water mostly below the machine's lint filter and rely on floating lint filters, I have attached zipties to reinforce the floating lint filters and they work fine as the foam head likes to fall off without all the reinforcement. Will also get something to collect the gunk at end of hose. I also keep drain more clear with hot but not boiling water.
Amazing product
This has been a big money saver for my family while we are RVing.spend less time at the laundry mat and more time enjoying you life. This is also an amazing product for small apartments and dorms. It's very quiet and the washability and design making the ease of use easy for anyone to use.
waiting for return to go through
this little machine is great for small spaces. However, I’m in the process of returning it and getting my money back simply because the dryer does not dry your clothes at all. I live in a one bedroom apartment with a very small bathroom. There is nowhere for me to hang dry my clothes and drying them outside is not an option seeing as I live in one of the coldest cities in Canada. The machine does an amazing job at washing the clothes and getting out all the grime, but when it comes to drying it sucks. The max time that you can set on the dryer it’s five minutes. I’ve never had clothes dry for five minutes and come out even somewhat damp. My clothes were soaked. Even after I had continuously reset the five minute timer over a span of 45 minutes, my clothes were still wet. I’m really hoping that my return goes through otherwise I’m out $270. Another thing I’ll mention is that The plug is extremely short and I needed to use an extension cord in order to have it sit in my bathtub while it was doing its thing. One last thing, mine came damaged at the back but thankfully it didn’t affect the washer. it also leaks if you try to move it at all while there is still water in the washer. I highly suggest looking for a different washer/dryer of this kind unless you live somewhere where you can hang dry your clothes.
