Questions & Answers
Nothing will fit that hose, according to what I've been told and what I've seen in other videos. I fill it with my shower head, but you can also fill it with a bucket. Other videos that have been posted are extremely useful in determining what works best for your space. I think I've seen at least 5 movies. It took me ten attempts before I came up with a solution that works perfectly in my space.
It has three prongs, two of which are rectangular and one of which is round, and can be plugged into any three-prong socket.

I've made some living purchases! br>br>Given the price and the fact that the product images make it impossible to judge the quality, I didn't have very high expectations. However, I was pleasantly surprised! br>br> First, despite the fact that it is small and easy to tuck away, it can hold more volume than it appears. The horizontal depth of the wash tub is quite substantial (see image). In one load, I can fit two outfits and a few miscellaneous small items (socks, etc. ). It's also surprisingly powerful for such a small device, which I wasn't expecting! br>br>One point in the product description that needs to be clarified is that the right tub is a spin cycle, not a dryer. However, after using the included “cap” to tamp down the items after moving them to the correct tub and running the spin cycle, it actually gets things about 75% dry. br>br>Overall, excellent quality and value for the money! br>br>My only criticism is that the instruction manual was poorly translated, and the image figures are nearly impossible to understand. So, FYI: Simply connect the hose, and when not in use, hang the drain hose on the hook. Those manual images aren't particularly noteworthy (I spent far too much time figuring out that I didn't need to do nearly anything).
This was purchased to handle small loads of delicates and masks. br>br>I didn't read the instruction manual that came with it and instead plugged it in next to my kitchen sink and let the faucet fill it up before draining it into the sink. br>I washed two pairs of muddy khaki pants (boys size 10) and a white shirt (boys large) caked in mud. More could be added if necessary. With 1- They were cleaned with 3 tablespoons of detergent and hot water as if no mud had ever touched them. br>br>I've also used it in my tub on rainy/cold days, and it's very simple to use once you figure out how much soap to use based on how dirty your clothes are. The spinner is great because it spins almost all of the water out, so they dry quickly once they're hung. I've never had to use fabric softener with this, and my clothes dry soft (if they dry stiff, it's because they're still soapy). br>br>I've done about 25 loads of laundry since I've had it, and it's so convenient to have. br>br>My 9-year-old also uses it for his clothes, and he enjoys being able to load it, add soap, and then move on to the spinner. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> br>I've had the washer/spinner for a month, and each of my water, electric, and gas bills has decreased by $8 per month. br>It's still great, and my 9-year-old son loves it.
Halfway through the first load of a half dozen pairs of socks, the machine stopped working. It started out fine, vibrated all over the floor, and then stopped washing. It still clicks as if it wants to agitate, but nothing happens. If you decide to go ahead and buy it, keep in mind that you won't be able to use it right away. The fill tube is too long for the typical American faucet. is only two feet long and has a diameter as small as your pinky. The length of the power cord isn't particularly long. You'll need to supplement parts unless you have water, power, and a drain all within a foot of each other.
But so far, everything has gone swimmingly! This compact washer is very impressive, and the spinner dryer is extremely efficient (although it does not completely dry your clothes and you will need a dry rack or somewhere to hang all of your clothes, but that is another story). However, it is effective at removing the majority of the water from your clothing. I'm glad I took a chance and purchased this washing machine. br>br>Pros: br>1)It was well worth the $40 I paid for it. However, only a week after I received it, the price of this item skyrocketed. Sooo. Depending on how much this will cost by the time you finish reading this. When it comes to cost and value, you may have a different opinion. br>2) It's a lifesaver if you have small loads to wash and don't want to go to the laundry matt, as I do, especially with the Covid19 pandemic going on or in the coming winter months. I simply divide my laundry into two loads and do it twice a week. This machine was used for the first time on Sunday, and then again today when I returned home from work. br>3) It is unusually quiet. It makes a noise, don't get me wrong. However, it is quieter in the laundry matt than a regular-sized washing machine. br>4) The clothing is actually CLEAN! br>5) For more delicate fabrics (underwear, cloth face masks, and so on), there's a "Soft" wash selector. br>6) I'm done with hand washing! Woohoo! br>7) It's transportable. It is only about 20 lbs. in weight. Not bad. I have no trouble transporting this between my room (for storage) and the bathroom (for laundry). br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. br>1) It's a little bigger than I was looking for, but I live in a small apartment with limited space. I wish it was a little bit smaller, or that the washer and spinner were combined. 2) The hose that came with the washer will not fit in any of my faucets. As a result, I'll have to fill a small bucket a few times (6 times). 2 for the washing machine 2 for rinsing and 2 more for the final rinse I only rinsed once the first time, and the clothes/pants came out a little hard. That, to me, is a sign that it wasn't completely rinsed out). br>3) As a side note. BEFORE USING, READ THE MANUAL! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! Which brings me tobr>4) There is a small learning curve to using this machine, so you start by loading your clothes to be washed. pour in the liquid Select the detergent you want to use, either Normal or Soft, and then the time you want it to wash for. After that, drain, then transfer the clothes to the spinner (I almost missed this step the first time lol), then transfer it back to the washer side, add water softener, and reset the timer. Drain once more and return the spinner to its original position. br>5) Place this washing machine near your sink or bathtub on a raised surface. It's also possible that drainage will be a problem. In addition, the elevation aids drainage. br>br>Until now. It's a five-star rating from me! Because I'm blown away by this tiny washing machine, I'll update my review in six months, and I'm hoping it will last a long time.
