Wanted to keep up with my lighter weight more delicate laundry. This is exactly what I needed. I still use my apartment’s communal laundry facilities for the heavier, bulkier items. It is is compact and fits snugly in an out of the way spot in my bathroom. It’s a bit smaller than is described but adequate. Pros: Clothes come clean with only 1/4 cup liquid detergent. Simple to operate. Easy to clean. Compact. Stylish. Cons: Spinner can hold only 1/3 of the load and excess water needs to be wrung out first. Spin cycle is very noisy. Machine shakes violently if spinner is not secured properly (bottom clips must be lined up). Must be held down during spin cycle. Needs babysitting - cannot be left alone. Whole process takes about 1 hour: 8 min wash; 10 min drain and rinse; 5 min wring out; 30 min. 3 spins + placing on drying rack. Spin cycle needs to be redesigned. PS Had to buy a heavy duty 3 prong extension cord to position the machine in a convenient spot. Also had to get more detailed operating instructions from YouTube. Note: Only for small lightweight items.

I injured myself last month, which was preventing me from going downstairs to do laundry. This machine happened to be the Deal of The Day my 2nd week of injury and for the price, I figured it's completely worth it- especially if I can clean my clothes without the pain of walking! The machine does exactly what it says it does. You don't want to wash a lot of things! I could fit about 3 L shirts, or 2 XXL, 4-5 boxers or 4-5 sock sets. That doesn't sound like a lot, it's great for a quick wash, and enough for a wash every few days Now the downsides Load balancing: it is really really important that you properly load the spin basket. Unbalance loads cause it to shake/go off the thread Level surface! My biggest problem is I happen to have very few flat surfaces in my home. If it's not exactly on the flat spot, it'll violently shake! This took me a few days to figure out why sometimes it did it and sometimes it did not - I just happened to be me placing it 1 inch into a non-level surface. Dryer: It won't fully dry your clothes, but it will do its best make it as less wet as possible, and then I have to hang to dry. Not a big to me - I would rather wait half a day for 1-3 items to dry, then going through the painful of process of stairs! I assume this would be great for small apts and *maybe* dorm rooms that have a kitchen/sink/bathroom for the water loading/dumping.

This is one of the best washing machines I have owned, and I've owned several. It's a dynamo, and it works quick, it's fast, it's simple, it's very powerful. I'm confident in its ability to clean. I had A Blanket that I had washed by hand several times and to my surprise it, it washed it more thoroughly than I was able to.

Works great. Be prepared to rinse by ringing to remove excess detergent from clothes. Also dry using a dry to remove lint fibers.

Spin is not that great, very disappointed with that feature.

This thing worked a few times but started making weird noises. Honestly, it's just a waste of money. The quality isn't horrible, but it really just seems a bit useless. It can only take a tiny load, basically a few shirts and some socks.
