I live in an incredibly small apartment in a city where dishwasher machines are pretty much non-existent - I also have only one standard size sink and limited counter space in which to do dishes. I got this because doing dishes can be often times a labored project and hoped this would make life a twee bit easier....... It did! I have the dishwasher set on the counter next to the sink so, I dunk dishes into the soapy water bin (after rinsing first) or just let them soak a bit and then run it through the scrubby brushes, then rinse. I'm cruising through dirty dishes now and my sink is always clean and free of dirty dishes. I did remove the glass scrubber because it got in the way, I just use it independently for glasses and bowls.
PROS:
Saves space if you only have limited counter space and one sink.
Allows you soak dishes and come back to them later.
Bristle cleaners are firm but, non-abrasive.
Easy to clean out each night before bed.
CONS:
Plugs keep falling out (I filled mine in with epoxy and just pour it into the sink each night).
Bristles aren't long enough to do deeper dishes like bowls
All in all, I'll get another one when this one dies and would recommend to a friend. A little patience and learning how to work with this product (instead of against it) makes all the difference.
EDIT: I really hate the spam I get for leaving FEEDBACK. Trust me, if I have anything to say, I will say it and don't need to be hounded in email about it........... Especially when I've already left feedback.
I love this!! I bought this for my house and not for travel.
FOR MY KIDS!!
The best thing that I have found or came up to make sure hat I don't have to wash the dishes a second time after they "washed them".
I don't have to worry about plates and cups breaking after it slips out of their hands ether.
I also thought in the beginning that the bristles were not going to clean anything, but I was wrong. I love it and what counts, the kids love it.
THANK YOU!!
PS I glued the plugs in place. I make sure the brushes and taken out and rinsed and the tub is left upside down for drying.
This is a good little dishwasher for what it is. It does a fine job of getting the dishes clean and if you have any problems when it comes to putting your hands in hot water(like I do, medical issue) it's a godsend, but there is one small issue which is why I only gave it 4 stars. The brushes that fit into the washing side don't snap in real well so you have to kind of keep a bit of a hold on them to keep them from come loose as your moving your plate or whatever up and down but other than that it's great. And I will say it does get the dishes shinier than you can get them when washing by hand, much less streaking, which is very nice.
My mother had a stroke & has impaired use of her left hand. She lives in an apartment without a dishwasher & was struggling with washing her dishes. Now she can use this to stabilize her dishes & wash with her right hand. No more broken plates! This has been so helpful & useful for her. It has given her back independence & improved her quality of life.
This item was a great addition to our camping arsenal...dish cleanup was a snap and even kids had a good time trying out something new.

Description
Awesome!!!! Easy to do dishes, love it and would recommend this to anyone. It cleans dishes, we had to buy stoppers to keep water cause the parts that came with it did not hold the water, still awesome, so give it a chance cause best things we brought even though some issue with parts.
This little tub is great. A little soap goes a long way, the bristles are soft and clean dishes great. The glass cleaner is great too. I use this at home, not for camping, and I get through my dishes fast while saving on water.
I read the reviews and the people who glued the stoppers had the greatest success, so I bought it. Before using it, I glued the stoppers in and let it set for 24 hours. I don't have any problem with water pouring out or leaking. I simply dump the water out, when it gets gross. I wanted my kids to help out with cleaning the dishes during our camping trip. For food that didn't stick, it worked great. The bristles should be tougher to scrub food stuck on the plates. I now use this as a way to pre-clean dishes before putting them in the dishwasher, so that the dishwasher doesn't stink up. It also encourages my kids to pre-clean their dishes and put them in the dishwasher. The bristles do come out. In order to allow it to fit in my sink, I don't use the cup/bowl scrubber. Since my family uses a lot of ketchup, in order for our pre-wash water to not get smelly and so I can use the same water for one's worth of dishes and save money, I add some bleach and dish soap to the water. Also, when I dump the water out, I remove the bristles and scrub the inside and spray it down with 409 to keep it clean. I've been using it every day for 3 months and it's still serving it's purpose.
Has aready paid for itself on a camping trip. We washed everyone's dishes.
the plugs they give you for this dont work for 2 cents otherwise everything else on it and about it is awesome
