SUPER DEAL Compact Mini Twin Tub Washing Machine 13lbs Capacity Portable Washer Wash and Spin Cycle Combo, Built-in Gravity Drain for Camping, Apartments, Dorms, College, RV’s and Small Spaces

This compact little machine is amazing. Its quick, its quiet, and has a small footprint. I did a lot of research when I decided I didn't want to have to leave my no washer and dryer hook up, 500 square foot apartment to do laundry somewhere else. This one consistently had good, thoughtful reviews and I found a lot of useful videos for its use. The cycles are super fast, the spin cycle manages to pull the vast majority of the water from the clothes so they come out just a little damp. I haven't bothered with a dryer for what I've washed as hanging them up to dry yields completely dry clothes in short order. My apartment is super dry, this will vary on your humidity levels and time of year.Even when I get around to moving into a place that has a washer and dryer hook up, I don't think I'll go back to the big washers and dryers. This one takes less time, less energy, less space, less water, less detergent. I can move it with little effort from where it lives to where it works. It gets the clothes just as clean if not better. Smaller loads mean doing laundry more frequently but I find that I'm not spending an entire day or weekend devoted to laundry I've saved up over weeks to wash in a much larger machine. Wash and dry several huge loads, iron, fold, put away, repeat for an entire weekend as opposed to wash and spin three or four outfits, be done with my active part in less than an hour. You're done before the timer for that pizza in the oven dings.Its simple to operate. Twist knobs and it washes until the timer runs out. Heavy soil gets a longer wash time, lighter soil gets shorter. Straight forward stuff here. I washed three satin robes in the washer. I was concerned it would be too rough on them. It wasn't. They came out just fine with no delicates setting.I have yet to do bedding and towels or really heavily soiled items and if I find anything that changes my thoughts on this machine, I'll amend my review.My only complaint is that the seller sent me the wrong color washer, I ordered black, got a box that says "Washing Machine: Black" but I got a white washer. Also, there is no lint catch that I observed in videos and the listing says nothing about one now.

I ordered this because we live in a small apartment that doesn't even have a washer/dryer hook up in the unit. This has been a trusty workhorse, I cannot stress enough how much it has saved me in time and money. If you remember that the loads must be smaller than in a regular washer, and you do not overload it or the spinner, this little miracle worker will be a lifesaver. And the best part...the spinner works so well that it does not take clothes long to dry at all. Just wash, rinse, spin and hang the clothes and you're in business! Obviously, it cannot wash comforters or heavy blankets, but I am able to get all our laundry needs done with this little machine. I highly recommend this to everyone I know that lives in a small space without access to regular units. Just be good to it, and it will be good to you!

Living in a multi unit complex, sharing the laundry with tenants (especially filthy ones) is the worst, costly, time consuming and tiring. Fed up, I decided to look for a portable wash. There is a few on the list that seem more promising then this Item, but if you're living California like I am, a lot of them can't be shipped here. But luckily I found this awesome guy.This product is great, it does all it says and gets the job done. There are a few things I'd wish it came with but can also live with out, at the end of a wash, the positive outcome weighs out all the little things that it lacks.Things that would've been a plus would be a water draining pump. but I managed to get a shoe rack that's not really used to level it high enough to have the draining hose hang above the tub.The water inlet hose was pretty short, it feels flimsy and probably will break in the future, but that's a worry for the future. I went to a local hardware store, (not the big Depot, they know nothing there) I threw them some ideas of what I need to extend the hose, so that it'll work with the shower head 3 way diverter, and right away they found me all the parts to MacGyver a long functioning hose.The drain hose is short as well, but I'm able to slide the hose closer to the tub so that didn't bother me all too much. The washer is fairly light as well so if you don't want to look for the things that I have for continence, just drop it into the tub or where ever you can drain and fill the washer, but do it before starting the wash because the water weight gets real!The washer and dry spinner doors are very stiff, for the first few times of use, I would let go without guiding them all the way down for a close, it would slam very hard and loud. The extra door for the dry spinner gets caught on the main door if you don't close it first, annoying at first until you learn not to do that.This is just for my OCD, but the function knobs are a bit crooked (like looking at the crooked frame on a wall), but they work just fine.But overall like I said, it's awesome! So glad I made this purchase, I've actually been looking forward to use the machine these days, on the look out for clothes that I might able to wash just to see the washer do its job. A wash and rinse cycle takes about 30 mins total, 1 cycle being 15 mins. The wash is very quiet, can't hear a thing unless you're right in front of the washer. The spin cycle takes 5 mins and 1 spin does the job of getting the excess water out. If you have a nice even pile in the dry spinner you shouldn't get any noise either. If anything you'll get 1-2 seconds of start up spin noise and its almost silent afterwards.If you looking for a portable washer, at a good size, that takes a good amount of load, and also live in California, this washer is definitely for you!
