How to use Costway twin-tub washing machine

How to use Costway twin-tub washing machine. Wash, rinse, spin cycle. Very easy to use and washes just as good as household washing machine. We use ours in our travel trailer.

[@LSSSprigger117]

Thank you so much for this, I just got this washer and the instructions were useless, this video was a godsend

[@rosevanguard]

Agreed great demonstration.

same here i was reading and i was like how the flip lol i felt likei needed a rocket scientist xD

[@katienaagel1999]

I was just thinking who the heck wrote these instructions and came to KZbin instead lolol.

[@ilove_riceyum]

Yeah, the instruction had me so confused. But watching th video saved my life

[@only1lily]

Thank you so much for uploading this video. I just got this machine and the instruction manual wasn't very clear and was about to give up on it until I found your video; it was very helpful.

[@annparis4981]

i purchased this machine also. the instructions are HILLARIOUS! Chinenglish. My guess is they simply took the chinese manual and ran it through Google Translate. My friends and I read them outloud over drinks from front to back every word, and we laughed so hard, we read 'em again. The manual alone is worth the money. Go read the section about preparation before washing. "1. To prevent vibrates the washing machine should be laid on smooth, horizontal. 2. Connect enterhose. Turn on the water cock strobe." Also, if your machine doesn't drain, make sure your HORSE is in the correct position. :D Also, you can wash "twine" in each cycle, a shirt is a "sark," and a towel is a "quilt." :D

[@atsi8585]

only1lily I wanted to no where did you purchase it

[@janinaking5261]

So glad the video helped you!! You're welcome!

[@janinaking5261]

I purchased the machine off of Amazon for around $100.

[@vince7735]

Hilarious! You sound like a fun bunch.

[@mayajade6305]

THANK YOU. I re read the instructions about 4 times before I gave up 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️glad I found you

[@ayoangie7099]

Excellent demo. I just purchased this and I am so excited to not have to schlep my clothes up and down stairs. Great job!

[@janinaking5261]

Thank you so much! This machine is amazing. Especially for the price!

[@janinaking5261]

Sorry it took me so long to respond to any questions. I completely forgot I made this video...lol...until I got back on today, months later. I was surprised anyone had even watched it, so was excited to see over 4,800 views. So glad I could help anyone that found it worth watching. Hope you're enjoying your little machine! :)

[@randyhenderson892]

Very informative video ma'am. Like others have said, the instructions were very, well, *&$(#@ up...lol. Thank you for the excellent training lesson. You should ask for royalties from Costway, 103,835 views. They should have the link in the instruction manual for you video for those of us that only understand Americanese, as oppose to whatever they call that babble in the manual...LMAO! Once again, great job and thank you!!!

[@rociocardenas540]

Janina king you know you can rinse through the spinner right the water inlet is there too

[@rociocardenas540]

Janina king you can rinse through the spinner too it has a water inlet to rinse

[@joannaskolfield4197]

This is a really good video. I have osteoarthritis in both knees and my back. So going up and down stairs kills me. I just bought this washer to use in the garage as I have a utility sink there. The “user manual “ is a joke and totally useless. Your video is so complete and answers all my questions. Thanks so much for making this video!❤❤

[@julianaplucinik5852]

Awesome video. I have a container that collects the water i use when I am warming up my shower and I just repurpose that water for the wash and rinse cycle. Just an idea if anyone is trying to conserve their water.

[@davidadausuel4537]

I must say, that I really appreciate your thorough demonstration of how to use this machine. Yours is the best one that I have come across. The users manual was totally useless because it was so poorly written that it presented itself as though it was written by a totally illiterate individual. I have never seen a manual of such pathetic penmanship . Again thank you for sharing your wonderful video even though you may have been under the weather. You took the time to share this with social media. You have my fullest appreciation indeed.

[@Jason.King.at.your.service]

We used to just rinse it in the spinner. We had one in the 70s. I remember the wash was much better with those machines and much much quicker.

[@brandiports9768]

Thank you so much for this! I got my washing machine today and I swear, the instructions are in Yiddish or Swahili or something! This tutorial is great! 🤗

[@screamsformemes]

Hello from the Future!! this was super helpful thanks so much!!

[@MalcumTent]

I just ordered this machine. I havea hard time getting to a laundromat and I've been wanting one for a long time. With a new grandchild on the way I finally have an excuse to splurge!lol I can't wait until it comes in!

[@alicerose7298]

Just ordered mine too and waiting. I'm so excited you'd think I was 5 yrs old and Santa was coming.

[@meshellwillett3118]

Thank you I couldn’t find my directions but yours were better

[@pgowthamster]

Thanks so much! Bought this off of Amazon and used it once in two years! Instruction manual is pretty useless and too small a print to read. This video was very helpful. Thanks again! Will now use this machine more regularly.

[@shawntitus8120]

I'm surprised you don't use your water inlet on the spinner side? When you open the spinner door you'll see inside there's a little white tray on the top that's where the water comes out to rinse your clothes. It's a lot quicker. You just open the lid transfer the water inlet hose from the left side and put it on the spinner side and then watch all the water go in and rinse your clothes at the same time. I'm only telling you this in case you didn't know if that's what it's for

[@carleneboulden4386]

I like the look of that. Very handy for situations where an ordinary washing machine can't be available.

[@ValabluFent]

Thank you for making this video. The instructions that came with my machine were useless but thanks to you I just finished my first wash. Thanks again and be bless.

[@boxypox]

I’ve never seen people so passionate about Laundry before

[@AMeshelle-]

Thank you for the quick explanation... show & tell🙂 They should just hire you to explain it rather than send these instructions which I couldn't figure out. Appreciate the help!

[@vinicioh6089]

Thank you for posting this. I bought the machine to solve my Laundry problems during quarantine since all local laundromats closed. The instruction manual was not intuitive at all.

[@suzyqsviews5698]

Thank you so much. I’m using a Rinseroo hose and the light bulb finally came on in my brain once I saw what you were doing on your video. Have a great day!

[@ShannyVizzle]

Thank you soooo much for this video! I just purchased this for my mom and I and the directions were a bit overwhelming so I really appreciate this!😊😊😊😊😊

Omg! You just made my day with this video! Thank you for doing this even though didn't feel well at the time ^.^ I just got this machine and used it for the first time after your video and your demonstration / explanation was perfect. Thank you so much!

[@Rosethesinger89]

I love mine ❤️ I got mine about a month ago it’s amazing I have mine sitting right next to my tub and toilet I use my shower hose to fill it and I drain it in my toilet works perfectly for me I do have mine on a table so it drains perfectly Each load of laundry I use about 1 tablespoon of detergent during the wash cycle and during the rinse cycle I use my fabric softener it’s amazing

[@frankiethebull8269]

Does the fabric softener break your turds up?

[@barbarajeanjazz]

Thanks! We had a good laugh trying to read the hilariously poorly translated instructions. You made it very clear.

[@bythejerseyshore]

Thank you for this video. I just bought one and didn't know where the extra lid went. Great video.

[@rachelcavally7637]

The "extra lid" goes under the clothes in the spinner not on top of them!

[@deelitebaby]

Thank you so much for doing this video! I just got this and, yes, the manual doesn’t make much sense, so we’re all really grateful!

[@dezzif]

Thanks for the video! I bought the same washer I absolutely love this little washer and worth the money the Manuel wasn’t too clear so I wasn’t sure how to use it I didn’t use the hoses either and stuck mine in the bath tub also and with 3 kids it’s fast and easy to wash clothes!! ;)

[@hope4lifewalker739]

I just bought the 18 lbs washer and should be receiving it tomorrow. I've watched many of these videos but have yet to see one particularly for the 18 lbs. washer. Here's a tip for you which makes sense. During the rinse, if you have soap bubbles left in your water, many actually spin after the wash then put it through the rinse cycle. You can also use baking soda and vinegar to strip your clothes of soaps and dirt so much easier in this little washer. I can't wait to get mine! I am sick of the large bulky washers and driers with the price tag that this new Power company is charging us. So excited!!! (odd I know! It's Laundry) lol

[@whedonite81]

Such a great demo video, so many helpful hints I wouldn't have thought of and the way you only put in the information people need, awesome!

[@Brenduh03]

I just used this same washer amd it works great really easy to use and really cleans the clothes

I just picked up this unit for 60 bucks in fb marketplace in my area gonna put it in my travel trailer as well now if the unit is as said in my add it should work just like yours lol wish me luck, thank you so much for posting

[@RealLadi228]

Less soap is better for a clearer rinse but the washer or rinse cycle can be repeated and if the washer is a 20lb washer its 8lbs wash and 12lbs spin cycle I love this machine I use my tub with a rubber mat underneath it in my apartment 😌 I use more water than necessary to take unnecessary pressure off the washers agitator and motor also keeping the spinner balanced is key to longevity of this portable washer/spinner dryer. GREAT VIDEO! I've had mine one year its a little over $200.00 now but worth every dime!

[@NarutoFreak817]

This helped a lot! The directions that came with the machine made no sense. Thank You!

Thank you for including how to use water softener. I did my first wash day in the RV tub and everything was great except the towels. Next time it will be fine due to your video. I love not going to the laundromat

TYVM! Just got mine today, and needed it. The instructions are bit vague, haha, so, thank you, again for this video. I love it, best $65 I ever spent; I live in an apt. and we don't have a laundromat here, and this saves me time and money! It took a week and a half to arrive, so it's laundry day, lol.

Exceptional video! I was debating whether to buy one, thanks to this video I'm all in.

[@laurienau3336]

Thank you for the video demo. I bought mine used with no manual. When I went to Costway's website and downloaded the instructions they were hard to understand. I agree with you in regards to the hose for filling the washer. Why wouldn't the manufacture develop some kind of universal attachment to fit different faucets including hoses.

[@leysirodriguez1691]

I got one last week, it seems to be water everywhere but managed to sort that out, I have mine in the kitchen and I got one of the mixer tap connector so is ok now. It works beautifully and it’s very manageable . 5 stars

Thanks for the video! Travel trailer! Travel Trailer! He he 😊 Under $100.? Usd i guess. It sells online for $269. I paid $200. I was scared to use it before yr video! So,thanks💗Now off to do some wash. I will be sitting it in my shower on my shower chair so it drains good.

[@mthomson4565]

Brilliant idea to just use the shower hose to fill with water instead of faffing around with adapters to try to make the hose fit. The hose is too short in any case and you would want to put the machine in the shower anyway for draining and spinning. Really helpful video overall - Thanks!

[@attilladacook3405]

I have the 32 pound version of this. I find if I throw the load in the spinner and then fill tub to rinse I don’t have the suds form in the wash tub during the rinse. I love my little washer. And yes it does work better than a big top loader.

I find using vinegar during the rinse removes soap residue, I also add Downy halfway through. It works really well and you don't have to keep rinsing.

You should spin the clothes to get out most of the soap before rinsing. I have a twin tub and this is the correct way to do it!

[@wakeelaalamin2038]

THIS WAS SO HELPFUL!!! Thank you 😩🙏🏾

[@darbyc1936]

Great help! Thank you

[@leeluv96]

Here's a tip, the rinse is actually done on the spin side and you one would run water into the spin side while it's spinning for a min or two. Then turn the water off and let the clothes spin completely for three min or until nearly dry. This can only be done if you have the intake hoses hooked up. Because the spin side will not work of the lid is lifted.

[@leeluv96]

I realize this video is old but, I could use some suggestions on the drain hose. I have had the machine for a few months and it works great. It's raised so, it drains fine. But for some reason, dirt/ gunk is building up on the inner hose walls. There's no simple disconnect and I'd rather not take the bottom off.
