My clothing has been stolen or removed and placed on a table, not happy. I waited to review this washer because I wanted to be sure it worked for me. I am very happy. The washer has manual features, such as placing water in the washer and draining the water; the spin cycle is separate. Do not overload the washer. My clothing is clean. The spin cycle takes out all the excess water and takes no time to dry. I placed mine in the bathtub, not heavy to take in an out. It's not very noisy either. I recommend

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little machine…great customer service…but the instruction book needs to be in a bigger font!

It took some time to figure out a setup for this washer/spinner. The drain is simply gravity and that drain opening is very close to the floor….and too low to drain into my shower. My solution was to buy the roll around cart suggested on the same page as the washer, add 2 planks to heighten that opening off the floor and duct taped it to hold everything in place. I use my portable shower handle to fill the tub, add detergent sheet and clothes and start the washer. When done, drain it, then refill to rinse clothes…and one final drain. The drain works very well. The clothes need to be wrung out by hand…then into the spinner which is amazing! My ONLY complaint…the instruction book is printed in such a small font that you need a magnifying glass to read it! That is countered by the excellent customer service…they answered every single question promptly!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome purchase!

Awesome for apartments! Saves me trips to the laundromat and cleans clothes efficiently and the spin dryer works so well. The inlet hose does not fit my faucet so for now I just fill the wash basin with a bucket or more of water but I’ve seen others use a handheld shower hose to fill it. So there are options. Not big enough for really large and heavy quilts or covers but not a big deal. I can still wash 90% of my laundry in this machine. Very happy with this purchase! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reasonably priced as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars COMPACT BUT VERY POWERFUL

M.B. · May 1, 2025

This well-built compact washer is definitely "compact." To get an idea of its size, picture a standard-size bathtub with a 24" X 52" bathing area. This washer would take up about two-thirds of that space. (A bathtub is actually an ideal place for one of these washers because it can be filled easily, and the water from the drain hose goes literally down the drain.) The washer has two powerful motors, one for the agitator and a second one for the spinning rinser. The agitator reverses direction after about fifteen seconds, ensuring that whatever is being laundered (including jeans, bed sheets, and towels) will have all dirt and grime removed. A small amount of any detergent will work well in this washer. The duration of the washing cycle can be set to as short as one minute and as long as fifteen minutes. The timer on the powerful spin dryer extends from one to five minutes--and the clothes are almost dry when the spinner shuts off. One drawback of this washer is that it lacks a pump for filling the washer, causing the user to have to fill it manually with a bucket. An easy "fix" is to buy an inexpensive battery-operated pump, attach the washer's filler hose to the pump, and immerse the pump in a small bucket of cold or hot water. The pump will fill the washer quickly and easily. Although compact, this washer is heavy and does not move when running. For those who do no more than about twelve pounds of laundry at a time, this compact and powerful washer may be an ideal purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful step up from hand washing

G.K. · January 23, 2025

I have been washing clothes by hand for decades. I would only use laundry facilities when washing bulky or heavy items. Everything else I washed in a bucket with a plunger-looking thingy (that I also bought on Bolo). I do not find hand washing to be onerous. On the contrary, most of the wash time is soak time. But as I have been doing laundry this way for decades, over the years, I noticed that I had less strength in my hands, wrists, and arms, and wringing out the clothes was difficult. I would end up draping dripping clothes on my drying rack. It was a mess.Enter this washing machine. Now, my mom and grandma had portable Hoover washing machines in the 70’s and 80’s that they rolled up to the kitchen sink. They were heavy beasts made of metal and had thick, rubber hoses that actually could fit on a faucet. This is not those. This is a plastic made-in-China thing with thin plastic hoses that could never in a million years fit on any American faucet.If you think this thing is a replacement for a “real” washing machine, you’d be wrong. It’s not even a replacement for the old-timey portable washing machines. What this thing is is an easier way to hand wash. If you think of it this way, you’ll never be disappointed.It’s very light, which is good. I pick it up easily and put it in my tub. The inlet hose is a joke, so I fill a bucket and pour the water in the washer that way. Others have rigged up funnels on their shower head. You’ll figure something out. I don’t find that to be much of a pain; after all, I’m used to doing laundry by hand, so this is similar enough that I’m not bothered. If you’re used to a large automatic washer where you throw the clothes in, set it, and walk away for a half hour or more, this will seem to be a pain in the butt. But coming from hand washing, it’s fine.The best part of this is the spinner. It gets so much water out of my clothes that they are barely damp when I hang them on my drying rack. No more wringing! That is the best part. Heck, I wouldn’t mind washing clothes by hand in my bucket and just using the spinner function to get the water out.Don’t use too much detergent. Most people have that problem when using any kind of washer. You don’t need tons of suds. Also, keep the water in the tub while spinning. You need the weight. Drain it after you’re done using the spinner.In conclusion, if you think you’re getting a smaller, lighter version of an automatic washing machine, you’ll be disappointed. But if you want something a step up from hand washing, then this is the thing for you. You’ll love it! No more wringing!

Not what I was expecting!

It’s made laundry much more convenient in my apartment.Due to where my electric outlets are installed I unfortunately can’t run it in my bathtub like other reviewers have, so I need to empty the excess water into a bucket and drain it that way, sometimes water gets stuck at the very bottom and it needs to be picked up and tilted to get the remainder of the water out. It’s very light weight (when empty) and I can safely lift it without worrying about injuring myself, it probably weighs around 20 to 28 pounds.Since the dryer only spins the clothes and doesn’t use heat sometimes it leaves my laundry feeling slightly damp afterwards, so I hang the clothes for a few minutes, and they’re almost immediately dried!I also appreciated the small guide it came with, it came with a general guide on how much certain items like shirts and other items could weigh so that you can determine how much you should be able to fit into the washer and dryer, I was able to safely put a full twin sized blanket into the dryer, but that is the max for how large blankets can be unfortunately.I am yet to try any shirts with buttons on them, but the guide recommends they be put into a laundry bag to prevent any damage.

So far, so good.

I bought this because my building’s laundry is costing me $7 a load to wash and dry and this machine will pay for itself in a matter of months if all goes well.I’ve done about 8 loads so far. A few things to know:It’s lightweight enough to lift in and out of the bathtub (which is the best place to fill and drain it) without much trouble.Best way to fill it is with your shower head, assuming you have a detachable one. Otherwise you’ll probably have to work something out for the intake hose or just fill buckets from the tap and pour them in.Consider electrical safety as you’re going to need to plug it in somewhere near your tub or run an extension cord.It’s not built for hot water loads. You might still need to take your sheets or towels to a laundromat.The agitator is very vigorous. Use it with caution on woolen loads. I usually let it agitate for no more than a minute on the soft setting, soak several minutes, agitate again for no more than a minute.Items tend to get very, very tangled by the agitator. Sleeves and leggings and so on get twisted and tied up into complex knots. Anything you don’t want getting stretched and stressed like this should be washed in a mesh bag.Lift items from your wash cycle into the spin dry and spin them out while draining the tub to refill for a rinse.The spin dry is very effective. It will get your clothes more dry than a typical washing machine spin cycle. Many delicate items like sweaters can likely be hung to dry safely rather than having to lie them flat to dry to prevent distortion.Unless you have access to a clothesline outside where everything can flap in the breeze, your items are going to air-dry more wrinkled than they would be in a tumble dryer.Will update this in a few months if the performance changes.

For the most part I love it, just one main issue

L.A. · May 6, 2025

Love not having to spend a fortune at the laundromat anymore.It doesn't hold a ton which makes it tome consuming but it does enough for our two person household.Biggest issue I have is it keeps ripping the stitching out of clothing, some from clothes that are almost brand new.

Mieux qu'une laveuse à 600$

P. · January 31, 2025

Je vous conseille fortement ce petit bijou!J'ai magasiné longtemps avant de me dire que j'allais acheter une laveuse portative. J'étais très septique quant aux commentaires.Je la met dans mon bain et c'est parfait. Super facile à transporter (je la range quand je ne l'utilise pas, à côté de ma sécheuse).J'ai acheté, en plomberie, l'embout qui sert à raccorder le tuyau de la laveuse à celui du tuyau de ma pomme de douche, pour une dizaine de $.Le temps de lavage va très bien et c'est très rapide (15 minutes max). Pour l'essorage, deux minutes fait l'affaire (jusqu'à 5 minutes).Je mets tout sur mon étendoir à vêtements et, en quelques heures (6-8 heures), tout est sec, contrairement à mon ancienne grosse laveuse : ça prenait minimum 24 heures avant que tout soit sec.Le seul hic, mais ça enlève aucune étoile à mon avis, c'est qu'il faudrait une alarme pour avertir quand le lavage est terminé.

Good apartment size washer.

The spin cycle takes out so much water that my clothes and sheets are dry within a few hours. I'll fill up the washer more so I'm washing less but only fill up the spin until it's full. It's light enough for me to move it in and out of the tub instead of using the hose to fill it up. I just use a bucket of water to fill it up, then let it drain in the tub until I'm done doing my laundry. It's so much more convenient than using the public washers in my building. I just hang dry my clothes on a drying rack that hangs from my closet door with hangers.
