I bought this washer also. I watched your video before deciding. True ❤ A time saver. My clothes are cleaner than they were using the community laundry room. Do replace the intake hose with another one because the one that comes with it will seep. Going on 2 & half years now using it. “Must have”🥰

[@pamelahauer9938]

Thank you, Julia! Your videos really helped me decide which washer to get. I bought the same one and got the dolly and beige cover like your black one, too! I store mine in my living room and it is unobtrusive with the cover. The original smart plugs you have no longer come with the energy monitoring feature. Had to return those and found BN-Link smart plugs that work just like yours. They are fantastic! For 8 loads of wash AND dry with my Panda SF40 (9 pound) dryer, it only took energy that cost me $1.75 TOTAL for 8 loads! That's compared to $14 at our community laundry facility. This little washer is a gem! And I love love love the dolly. I do shake out the last of the water from the hoses at the end before I put it away and also leave the lid open for a while to air out before I put the cover on it. The lint filter is easy to clean after each load or so and does a great job. Haven't cleaned the other filter yet at the bottom back, but it looks easy enough to unscrew and wash. Thank you again for all your videos. ❤

Wonderful review 2 years later and greatly appreciated...I love that the hose can be placed high and not gravity empty and the washer has lent trap help save plumbing. Also love that can be filled by bucket ...

[@marissaveloz9724]

Genuinely makes me happy that this is accessible to buy. Not a lot of people have money to buy an expensive washer or cannot have a "traditional" washer in your apartment. It's expensive & inconvenient to go to public washers when you suddenly run out of clean clothes.. An occasion that pops up and you need clean; dry clothes... life is hard! Many people either don't have a car, enough money, or a support system and it just makes me happy that this is on the market. The reason I'm considering into buying this is because the modern washers either don't have a middle agitator, doesn't fill enough water, and hardly moves to wash your clothes.. I need something with strength and that won't cost me an insane amount.. very appreciative of the washer we do have and I'm able to use. God bless you, stay strong , stay safe and be kind to one another..🙏❤🌎

[@back2the80s]

I can’t afford a car yet and not allowed to have a washer and dryer. Laundrymat far to walk. So I have to pay for a laundry service. It’s so frustrating and expensive.

Does this use enough water to actually wash clothes, or is it a "water saver" washer? My big washer doesn't use hardly any water so my clothes aren't clean.

I bought mine today and tried it right away. I had trouble with the hose, because it didn't fit my sink faucet, but I managed to test it. Now I have to buy an adapter. I am very satisfied with the results of the first wash I did. The clothes were super clean and practically the washing machine does not make noises. From 1 to 10, I give it a 10.

How do you prevent water from spraying when you remove the quick connect from the sink? I’ve turned off the water but water still sprays everywhere when I remove the quick connect.

[@funbrandi2603]

There should be a release button you push first.

[@supercooled]

The is for making this video. I thought all micro or mini washers all look like a water jug with blue plastics everywhere. If you use this 2-3 times a week and over 2 years then it is going to last a long time. I’m off to watch your panda drying machine now. Our landlord yelled at us Because we had some flooding from the old machines.

[@Truth1561]

As it’s automatic rinse you can’t use manual filll unless you stay with it and put the rinse water in. The manual says no. It won’t work unless connect directly to a faucet and with high enough water pressure. Many of the cheaper models that you have to swap the clothes over for rinse and spin can be filled with a bucket. You will void the guarantee if you fill manually.

Thank you for the review!! Mine is being delivered tomorrow, I currently have a portable washer that is side by side with the spin dry and it's hell. The machine is beyond loud, rocky and shakes, and has to be at a higher level in order to drain properly, but it shakes so I have to hold it 😩 It looks like this one doesn't have that issue, that you can leave it on the floor. My laundry is covered in my room. Can't even see the floor. The depression and anxiety is building every single day, takes me almost 1 hour to do 1 load in my current laundry machine because there's so much physical labour with it (manually fill it with 4 buckets of water AND have to do this 3-4 times to actually get the clothes clean). PLUS the spin dry beside the dryer is so much smaller than the wash. So I have to fricken dry in small batches. Anyway, excited to use it and boost my mental health, thank you a bunch!

Don’t you know how much detergent to use?? That’s about 10 x too much. What waste. Look at the line on the cap. For your machine you only need about 2/3 of the lowest line !

[@timtsai54]

Just a thought. Are you suppose to put detergent in 1st then put the laundry cloth in? I saw you did it reversely. Would the concentrated detergent ruin your cloths? Especially the cloth with colors?

[@JuliaCaban]

It didn’t ruin my clothes - water comes in through the top and unless you let it sit for Hours it shouldn’t be a problem - I’ve been doing it this way for over 2 years and it’s all good :)

You can use powdered soap, or you can dilute the liquid soap in some water... if you're worried.

[@elenacisneros3970]

Can i wash a queen blanket in their

[@JuliaCaban]

Depends how fluffy/big it is. I was able to wash blankets but not a comforter.

[@blazinliv]

Hello 😊 thank you so much for a very informative video! Does this machine ever damaged, stripped, streched and/or pulled the clothes fabric in any way? This matter is so important too me... Thank you again lovely 🌹

[@danusiamarion9938]

Which size is this? .09, 1.7, 2, 3?? The .09 only can run with cold water.

[@tylerm124]

I mean the thing is the 2 cu./ft. Washer amd dryer combo being like 700$ isnt bad. It washes rinses spins and the dryer is actually heated. If you pay lile 60$ a month for laindry like my gf and i do it pays for itself in 1 year and yoi domt have to lug shit around the apartment amd share with others. Ive washed clothes after someone else washed soiled(poop) stuff and all my stuff smelt like shit.

Got the answer

[@cary277]

Hey Julia this is 2024 you still have your washer?

[@JuliaCaban]

My neighbor has it now! I sold it to her when I moved from CA to TX and she is super happy :)

[@cary277]

Oh ok so what kind of washer and dryer do you have now?

[@cyndimack3527]

I wish you hadn't skipped the loading part. I would have liked to have known how much fits! I will look for your other video.

[@JuliaCaban]

I have a separate video on that! It’s in my channel playlist “portable washer and dryer” please check it out :)

It requires the right way to hook it up with a faucet too (won't work with some designs).

[@jzen1455]

Is it loud or does it vibrate violently?

[@JuliaCaban]

It does not its great :) 👍

[@jzen1455]

@@JuliaCaban Thank you for the quick response! My apartment building only has 3 washing machines and dryers for 60 units in the dark dank basement. Lugging loads of laundry down there is not a fun experience and having a portable washing machine in my own apartment would be a godsend! I was deciding between this and the RCA portable washing machine, and the Black and Decker seems the better choice.

[@onejreaper2420]

I didn't understand what you said about adding water sorry. um...is it possible to add water manually without a tap? cause I don't have access to these things. but I have water jars filled with water. thankyou.

[@theLordschild47]

Did anyone buy the insurance

[@JuliaCaban]

I did not!
