The media could not be loaded. This is a powerful little washer. It's a washer and a water extractor/spinner. There is a little bit of a learning curve. You have to wash, spin, rinse, spin and either hang your clothes or dry them in a dryer if you have a dryer. However, it does a very good job of extracting all the water. Most light clothes will be dry in 3-4 hours if you hang them inside. I would imagine it'd be even faster if you could hang them outside.The Issues You Will Face1. It needs power, water and a place to drain, just like a regular washer. For me, that meant putting it next to the front door. I have a hose and the faucet attachment for a hose that reaches from the kitchen to the front room because my big washer initially lost its water, so I had to handfill it. the hose that comes with this machine fits no US faucet that I know of, and it's only about 3 feet long, so I'm not sure what they were thinking there. The washer is only about 3 feet tall too. But that means it's too tall to put on a kitchen counter and nothing they give you is long enough to reach the kitchen faucet if you were to sit it on the kitchen floor.2. The whole span of attachments (drain hose and power is only going to give you about 10 feet. the plug is about 5-6 feet and the drain hose is about 4 feet. 3-4 feet. So finding a place that meets those dimensions might be difficult. I stuck mine by the front door so that I could drain it out the front door. so your setup may need to be creative.3. the drain hose, even with the pump, must be flat or lower than the machine. It just doesn't pump up, because my initial thought was to have it drain into the same tote I had been handwashing my laundry it. It just won't pump it that high. It was a 48 quart tote, if anyone is curious.The process for Washing clothes1. Put your clothes in the wash side, and fill it with water. Let it wash.2. Drain the water if that's going to be your only load. If you're washing more than 1 load, the water in the wash side doesn't drain until you switch it to drain, so it's perfectly possible to squeeze your wet clothes and stick them in the extractor side and place them on a table. Then, use the wash water again. I like to wash everything and spin it, then rinse everything and spin it before hanging it up.3. Spin the clothes.4. Put in clean water and rinse the clothes in the wash side.5. Spin the clothes.6. Hang them to dry or however you're going to dry them.A note - If you're like most people, you will look at the plastic disk and toss it in the trash. It says for safety. It's not for your safety. it's for the safety of the machine so that your little clothes don't spin right out of the spinner. It's also nasty to get out. You have to push one side down until you see the opposite side, then, food it slightly and pull it out. Wash the edges of the spinner. You will scrape your skin off. Ask me how I know....Another note - the wash side does not drain until you tell it to. the spin side drains immediately. I mean, you can put the sloppy wet clothes in that side and water will come out immediately. So think of it as - always drain, or you will be mopping up water.How do you get the filter out without breaking it?Push down on the top of the filter housing until it pops out. It's held by 2 plastic pins - one in the top and one in the bottom. Empty your filter, put it back in. It's fairly easy to do, but confusing when you first get the machine.What does the machine wash?Everything but your winter clothes and thick, big blankets. It'll wash throw blankets, providing they're not super thick. It'll wash sheets and pillow cases. It will not wash comforters or quilts. that stuff won't fit in the extractor anyway.It will wash - towels, washclothes, socks, shirts, jeans, pants, sweatpants, unmentionables etc. It even washes my blanket pants, but I can only extract them 1 at a time.The extractor will extract 1/3rd to 1.4th of whatever you put in the wash side. It's just a little bitty extractor, but it works very very well. As others have said, your unemtnionables and socks will be just about dry by the time you remove them from the extractor. everything else finishes drying in 4 hours to overnight.How well do I like it?I like it a lot. I bought it because my washer finally quit washing in May 2023. Prior to that, I had to handfill it because the water broke for the washer. I bought that washer in 2010. It lasted 13 years. it still has 7 years on it as far as I am concerned, so buying another one prior to 2030 isn't happening. However, it gets really old handwashing clothes and twice a year, I had to go to the laundromat to wash blankets and bedding and my clothes to get the stink out. I was ready for another trip to the laundromat when I realized I could afford this little washer. It paid for itself in a weekend. It's about $20 a trip to the laundromat, and the dryers at that laundromat don't get the clothes as dry as the extractor in this little machine. I did at least $60 worth of washing in this thing in 3 days. So, it's paid for itself in the 2 weeks that I've had it.Does it get the clothes clean?Absolutely. The clothes are clean and stink-free.How long does it take to do a load of laundry?Depends on what you set the timers to, but if you do the max, like I do, about an hour. That's 15 minutes to wash, 15 minutes to extract, 15 minutes to rinse and 15 minutes for the final extract. (It extracts 5 minutes at a time, but you'll be dividing your load into 3 batches mostly likely)I also believe that this company has good customer service. A couple hours after you order it, you will get an email describing what you bought. It's titled - the seller needs more info, but that's not entirely true. What they're doing is clarifying that you bought the washer with the extractor and that you understand that it doesn't have a heated dryer. I guess there's some confusion with that. the washer is plastic. There's no way that there's heating elements in it. But I do like that they make sure this is what you intended to buy. I intended to buy it.It's also affordable. So all in all, I like this little washer. I think it's a great buy if you need a little washer and either don't want to buy a big washer or can't fit a big washer in your space, and you are sick and tired of either handwashing or going to the laundromat.

It's pretty lightweight, it's not super loud, but it's not silent, the hose and powerchord could be a little longer for better reach to outlets, and water draining, love the fact that I can pour water in through a spout on the spinner side to better rinse the clothing, washes the clothes great, and the power of the spin is fantastic, makes for quicker hang drying. The size is great for being portable, and fits great in a bigger bathroom, great for weekly laundry too, pay attention to balance and weight in the spinner.

It’s been close to a year since we got this because on site laundry went up to $3 a wash and $3 a dry and that’s insane when you have a family of 4 so we got this with low expectations but I’m surprised it’s still going strong it paid for itself the first month fits a days worth of clothes from 2 adults 2 kids age 7 or two adult sweatshirts or two adult jeans or two towels or 1 small blanket but for big blankets and comforters you are out of luck and the spin gets all the water out which is perfect hang drying or a tiny dryer but we just put clothes on a hanger in a closet with a fan or two on em and they dry in a day

This little washer is wonderful. I bought it initially to avoid having to use a laundromat after my standard washer stopped agitating or spinning and we couldn't figure out the problem (despite replacing several parts). After we replaced the washer, I kept this to pre-wash my kitchen linens, and to use for my delicates.Before I start talking about the machine itself, I want to mention the seller. As soon as I placed the order, they sent me a VERY detailed email, stating clearly what I had purchased, and what features it had, so if I'd made a mistake and wanted to cancel the order, I could do so before it shipped. I've NEVER had a seller do that before. It makes sense, with how much return shipping probably is, but I'm still very impressed by the courtesy and forethought.So. The machine itself.Pros: I really like that the wash cycle is on a timer, so I can add more time if I want.The agitator is incredibly strong for such a little machine.The spinner is amazing, it gets almost all of the water out if you give it enough time, leaving the items more damp than wet.I love that it's portable so I can put it away when I'm not using it.It's not heavy at all, and the handles are pretty easy to grip unless you have very weak fingers.The lint trap catches a LOT.It's very gentle with my delicates, even my old sweaters that go threadbare if washed on the wrong cycle.Cons:Since it is so small, I wouldn't recommend doing more than a couple pairs of jeans or bath towels at a time.The lint trap can be difficult to pop out, and the tabs on either end of the frame that snap into place to attach it aren't the same length. If it's not snapping in, it's probably upside-down.The lint trap also may not be able to grab everything. If you put in items that have a lot of dust or pet fur on them (or forget to pull that tissue out of your pocket), they'll probably come out with a lot of it still on. It's just not really made for lint removal. That's a job better left to a tumble dryer.Like other reviews have said, the water hoses aren't made to fit onto a standard sink or bathtub faucet. They don't even fit onto a kitchen faucet, even with the aerator removed. They're made to fit onto a small spigot type faucet. This wasn't much of an issue to me, as I'm fine filling it with a clean bucket.It does have a drain pump, but the higher the hose goes, the harder it has to work. I drain into a bucket as well, a little at a time, keeping an eye out so I don't overflow the bucket. Again, this is something I'm fine with, and it isn't much of an issue for me.Overall, there are a couple of frustrations with this machine, but they're pretty minor for me, and in the long run, this little washer does what I need and does it well.
