Washes very well, and the spin cycle gets clothes almost dry. I don't use the water intake hose. I fill it with the flexible shower hose in my bathroom, and also drain it in the shower stall as the drain hose provided isn't long enough to stretch up to kitchen/bathroom sinks. It needs a longer electrical cord, also. I use one laundry soap pod and save the water from the first "whites" load to wash the next "coloreds" load, and use the same rinse water for each, so it is very economical to use. Electric Portable Washer & Spin Dryer | Mini Washing Machine and Dryer | Twin Tub Washer | for Dorms, College Rooms, RV Camping (PUCWM22) I live in a senior citizen high rise one bedroom apartment with limited space. The washer fits easily into my linen closet for storage, and is quiet when running. I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I paid $94.00 for it. Shipping was free and it arrived 2 days before the estimated arrival date.
Did my first load of wash, a small one, just a few pair of socks, tee shirt, 2 small kitchen hand towels. Had to add water by hand, the hose provided to fill the washer is laughable...too short to be of any use and not secure to any pressure from the tap. Not bad at all. Washed and then refilled to rinse. Wrung out water by hand before putting in spin basket. Only 1 minute on spin & surprised how relatively dry clothes were. Hung on a rack and after 3 hours, nearly dry. I`m single and I think this will work out just fine for me. Figure one small load daily and no more trips to the laundromat. Fits on my kitchen counter next to sink; when done, I store it on a small table and so far, so good. Just need to figure out hose hookup. P.S. after using it for about a week, no longer concerned about water hose hookup. I use an empty gallon jug to fill washer, this does not tie up my sink. Can use sink while wash is running. Secured machine to counter with eye hooks & 36 " bungee, can leave machine unattended now. Very satisfied. Mike C.
Excellent product in terms of performance. Strong motor. Does the job well when you don't overload it, like everyone says. Yeah, the plastic on the hose is a little flimsy but I don't care about that. I built a little platform for it with pallet wood and have a small bucket underneath that it drains into. The only con is that when I took it out of the packaging it smelled very toxic -- a kind of intense plastic/rubber smell. It's been sitting in my bathroom for about 5 days or so and although the smell has worn off a bit but it still lingers. I'm sure it will wear off over time; I just hope that I'm not breathing in toxic fumes.
So i got this washer yesterday. I live in a small apt. Pretty easy to use. However, there is a strong chemical plastic smell to it, hopefully it goes away but I'm not counting on it. Luckily it doesn't make my clothes smell. The tube used to fill up the washer is short. so short that it doesn't run from my sink so i have to put it in my bathtub and use my detachable shower head to fill it up. The power cord is also extremely short. I have to use an extension. You really have to put this in the bath or somewhere you don't mind getting wet because the drain hose is short and basically needs to be inside the tub. All in all its working fine and the spin cycle really gets all the water out I was super impressed with that. The spin dryer is a bit small so your whole load wont fit in it, BUT it takes less than five minutes to get it pretty dry, so for me thats not an issue.
I love my new washing machine. I live in my 29 ft motor home with my two dogs. To be able to wash things in my RV while staying with my dogs is just great. Because of its light weight, I set it up n my shower and move it when I want to shower myself. Washes Great, spins great - I just love it!

This machine was literally life changing! Works great but do your homework. It needs a location where you can put it up on a platform or counter and make sure you have a faucet or shower hose you can connect to. It's way better than hand washing and really gets your stuff clean. I have a chronically painful condition with a lot of fatigue and laundry in a separate laundry room outside of my apartment was difficult. This machine is light and I can store it away... the spinner works great. Just remember its little. Don't overload it. You can wash sheets but one at a time. Only knocked off a star because it did come with black residue inside. It may have been mildew from them quality testing and packing the machines wet. There seems to be black glue holding it together so maybe its that? Drain well... spray inside with odoban and leave doors open to dry well. Really a great purchase hope it keeps running so well!
These work very well.. full time RVing is much better with this!! We put ours in the shower basin and it really easy to fill and drain,, the twin tubs are the way to go....
Clean Clothes, Portable and Powerful. That says it all!
I have only had this unit about a week and have done several loads.
First of all it is light enough that I can lift it easliy onto a table for washing clothing. It is small enough to be able to fit in the small space of my motorhome.
The clothes come cleaner than in a regular washing machine and take half the time. The spin dryer spins the clothes so that it only take a couple hours and they are dry just hanging.
Cons:
Your loads need to be smaller so as not to over tax the machine... which is why they come so clean
The fill hose does not fit the sink. It is too small, I use a bucket to fill it so not a problem.
I will be using this machine over the next few weeks and will update my findings as time goes on.
You only need a tiny amount of detergent. The machine does all the cleaning, and the clothes look and feel clean.
Add some fabric softener to the rinse water, and when you hang the clothes they are nice and soft.
UPDATE AFTER 1 YEAR:
The belt on it was slipping off but luckly my boyfriend was able to fix it. We did use it a lot so that's pretty normal wear and tear, it just needed to be tightened. I do recommend spraying mold killer down the drain cord once in a while because it does get moldy but if you pour bleach or mold killer in the tube it cleans and kills it!
I absolutely love this! I use it about every other day. It's a 2 people household plus animals. It holds a good bit. You still have to hang up the clothes but they dry within a few hours/over night.
I do however wish the cords (both the drain tube and the power cord) were longer and not so cheap. And I wish the dryer part wasnt so loud.
The lid is slightly cracked and it was dusty but not a huge issue.
Overall I'd totally recommend it for anyone in apartments or can't afford a big washer/dryer.
Works great! I live in an apartment with no attachments for a washer and this works amazingly well to help me wash and keep my clothes clean. It doesn't fit a lot but if you do a small load a day you can keep up on laundry. I can fit a couple pair of jeans and a few t-shirts in and it works fine very good product.
