This little washing machine has been one of the best appliances I've bought off of Amazon. It was easy to use straight out of the box. Plug it in, connect your intake hose to your faucet, put the drain hose in the drain and load the washer. One load is dry clothes up to the lid, add the small load amount of your detergent, fill it to the drain hole at the top with water and it easily agitates the clothes. Our clothes are cleaned almost like a regular washer. You can even add fabric softener in the second (rinse) cycle if you'd like. The spin dryer gets the clothes almost dry, but you'll still need a place to hang them to completely dry before putting them away. My only complaints about the unit are that there is a lot of lint left on the clothes and you have to cover the drain hose with something to catch the lint or it can clog your tub. But in my opinion this is a great washer for people who want to save money on laundry or have a small space. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and buy again if I ever need to.

My wife and I live in a very small apartment in California and this is the best purchase we have made in a long time. Yes I agree with a lot of people it's hard to hook up to a faucet but me and my wife had to have a handheld shower head so I pulled out the shower head and used to hose part if you warm up the plastic to either side or the connection to the washer and to their shower area you can go ahead attach it that way. Just careful when using a lighter you do not need to get it really hot just enough to make it more malleable. So far it works amazing we have done four loads and less than an hour. It dries clothes pretty well. It takes about 20 minutes for a shirt to get completely dry but that is without a dryer. Or it really depends on what you washed prior will determine how long it might take to get completely dry. Fairly quiet. The size is nice .the shaking is not too bad as long as you do not overload it. The speed is amazing.

Play Video I typically don’t write reviews, but I feel that this mini washer is very deserving of one! If you live in a small apartment and/or have small children like me, this will literally change your life. Also, don’t mind the water on the floor in my video, that’s NOT from unit leakage, that’s from me spilling water! Pros: 1. Pretty quiet, not silent of course, but not as aggressive as a large washer/dryer. It’s similar to the monotone sounds of a window AC unit. When draining it does shake a little, so if you’re worried about neighbors pestering you, I would say get a carpet or mat to place underneath, helps muffle the sound. 2. If you have heavily soiled clothes, 2 wash cycles will have your garments super clean! I was actually shocked at how clean my kids clothes were. (If it helps I also use Persil detergent and baking soda in my loads). 3. Drying capabilities are a 4/5; considering that this is not a high powered dryer, more so a “spin cycle”, 1 cycle gets your clothes considerably dry to my surprise so I won’t rate so harshly. My biggest issue with hand washing before was that the clothes would still be dripping wet and as a result, would take forever to dry. 4. I definitely underestimated load size. The wash tub is incredibly spacious! Of course you don’t want to overload it, but it can clean a decent amount of garments in one cycle. Cons: 1. Short drain and water inlet hoses! Being as though they’re both so short, I have been bucket filing the tub and bucket draining. 2. It seems as though the drainage hose needs to be in a downward position for the water to properly flow out of the hose, so I plan to eventually elevate the until as other buyers have mentioned. The lengths of these hoses are a tad inconvenient but, considering the price, you can’t beat its overall functionality. Also I do feel like the drainage issue has a direct connection to the spin cycle. I’m sure if the unit drained fully, the clothes would be even more dry after the spin cycle. Tips to make you wash days/cycles easy-going: 1. Consider trying hose extensions. I haven’t yet, but I plan to. I see some people said it’s no use, but it doesn’t hurt to try. As long as you’re not messing with any of the internal motors or whatnot, you should be fine. 2. Elevate unit if possible. Elevation seems to promote better drainage. 3. Plan ahead for washing. If you want something dry and ready to go for a particular day, make sure to give yourself a day or two for the clothes to air dry completely. 4. Consider buying another drying alternative in addition to this washer. Since the clothes don’t completely dry after the spin cycle, you’ll either need a clothes rack or one of those portable hanging dryers. All in all, I’m in love with this unit. Beats having to drag all of my family’s clothes to a laundry mat! With the right cleaning products and proper set up, you’ll be doing loads and loads with ease!

Play Video I used it again today and for some reason the drain function malfunctions every once in a while and it just won’t work. You need to turn it off and try again so I did except this time it started spitting out the water from the bottom not from the hose and soaked my entire bathroom floor with all the water from the wash cycle. This could be such a useful and great invention, but it has so many flaws. I’ll keep it and use it because it’s too much trouble to find another box since I already threw it away and paid to ship it back. You just have to be mentally prepared for the entire floor to be soaking wet. It is not quiet like people said it is very loud as you can see in the video I attached. I used it more and you can get it to be quieter if you put a full load, but if it’s even a little too light, it makes a lot of noise and moves across the floor. It also spilt water because it doesn’t drain properly. I had to hold it up at my waist to get it to actually drain. It also spills out water while you’re doing the dryer cycle but it doesn’t warn you about that in the manual. It did clean the clothes and the dryer actually dries them pretty well. The cord is so short. The instruction manual is not that helpful and could be vastly improved. I bought this so I wouldn’t have to use the shared laundry in my apartment complex and have to carry full loads up and downstairs but if I have to hold the unit up at my waist every time I want to drain it then it’s just as exhausting. It’s not like it’s paper light it takes effort to pick it up at least for me. Extremely disappointed
