This review is laid in four sections: 1, the burning smell issue; 2, a head's up for potential owners; 3, the good things about the machine; 4, maintenance suggestions for owners.
1) -1 star for the stench of burning when I first used it. While the machine was unplugged, I opened the back to look at the rotar inside and there was thick black ash coating everything. I think it was probably left over from the factory where it was made, because after scrutinizing the internal parts I found no signs of scorching / burn marks. I carefully cleaned the ash out and closed the back of the machine, and after that I had no issues when washing clothes. The rest of the machine was clean.
2) With that said, DO NOT USE HOT WATER with this machine (as instructed in its manual). Warm and cold water are okay, but hot water risks overheating the internal mechanisms. I accidentally put hot water in it once, and the burning smell returned (this was after the aforementioned ash issue, not prior) -- but that was entirely my fault, not the machine's. I'm just adding this part to forewarn any potential owners who might not want to read the manual. If this is an issue, remember that this is a cheap washing machine! If you want something which can handle more, pay more $$ for a different one. You get what you pay for.
3) The machine is easy to lift, move, and store. I don't have any counters or tables which are large enough to put my washing machine on by a sink, so I just put it on the floor by the sink and attach the nozzle to the faucet. Even when it's full of wet clothes and water, it's not too heavy to pick up and transport. With that said, if you're eldery or have back issues, don't do that. It's also very easy to take apart and clean (and that's coming from me, someone who isn't very maintenance-savvy). For being such a small machine, it does a VERY good job of cleaning my clothes (and it holds a lot of them). There is no spin cycle; you have to drain the machine and wring your clothes out by hand (or with a hand-held wringer), but again, you get what you pay for.
4) Maintenance suggestions: Remember, you're putting dirty clothes in this machine to clean. While dirty water is drained out, like all machines some residue will remain and build up. You can easily clean it out by rinsing it out with water and dilluted vinegar, and you can use a screwdriver to (carefully) remove the drain to rinse it out as well. Be sure the machine is unplugged from the electrical outfit before you begin handling it.
Definitely what I needed. Cleans well and energy efficient. Very quiet too.
Surprisingly powerful jets of water alternate directions to gently but effectively wash dirt out of clothes. A little loud, but you can tell it's got some power in a little box.
Easy to use, work good, good experience so far, but the clothes are totally wet after wash, no spin cycle.
It definitely work for T-shirts and shorts. It is a little inconvenient when rinsing because I need to carry the machine next to the kitchen sink for the water to go. But for the price, it is a good product.
