The Laundry Alternative Poseidon Washer (Short version)

[@maineapple52]

I have just ordered this machine; 1/23/2024. I am relying on your honest expertise about this video. I also, have the Wonder Wash which I have been using for a long time. I love this machine but my back problems do not always allow me to use it every week. Thank you, Thom, for the great reviews. Keep up the great work.

[@thomfoz]

Thank you! The Poseidon took some time to really "catch", but now it's a huge success. People are loving the simplicity and how it washes really clean, similar to a Maytag wringer.

[@maineapple52]

I also have the Ninja Spinner. So I should be set for a long time. Thanks again!@@thomfoz

[@thomfoz]

@@maineapple52 I swear I won't tell you the matching tumble dryer is coming, I also won't tell you it's called Beyond. Also, I didn't tell you the design is super cute. And a green bird told me it's absurdly energy efficient. LOL

[@maineapple52]

Oh no! We aren't allowed dryers in our apartments, and we have inspections twice a year, but that doesn't stop me from looking at it. 😂 Will you be doing a demonstration about it? Thanks for the info! @@thomfoz​

[@thomfoz]

@maineapple52 this you can, because it requires no special outlets, no external vent and it's so small you can hide it in a closet or under your bed. And power consumption is LOWER than a coffee maker

Thank you!!! Deciding between this and Niagara. Deciding factors is cleaning ability, and whether we want full auto or semi auto. Can you give a comparison regarding cleaning ability between the two? Thanks again for the video!

Than you for finally putting up a video about this washer. 😊

[@cjpwolf2436]

I'm going to a portable washer project with a single-tub with the spin basket, and I think one agitation here would be good for a variant. But it's going to be a wash plate but the washer to look like a vintage one.

Please do a demo on the Drop. I would really appreciate it.

[@wordhermit3tinvestigate4UrSelf]

The drop is awesome I have for a yr now. my clothes gets clean in 15 mins instead of 30. And it comes with a metal spin basket so 2 in one.

How does this drain?

[@jeromedavis8575]

You should do a full cycle with the water pressure at the max setting.

[@maineapple52]

Hearing those bearings or seal makes me nervous about ordering this machine. Do you have to use the drain pump or will it gravity drain as well???

[@thomfoz]

You must use the pump. If you lower the hose, it will drain by gravity

[@maineapple52]

Thank you@@thomfoz

[@thomfoz]

Regarding the noise, that's the seal and it makes that noise when the washer is new (but the noise goes away after 5-10 uses)

[@dalemorris7014]

Great video, thanks! Does it have a drain hose?

[@thomfoz]

Yes, it comes with drain and fill hoses.

[@dalemorris7014]

thank you!@@thomfoz

[@charford8804]

Can you do a full load

[@cjpwolf2436]

I got an Idea you should make a twin-tub version of the Niagara

[@zawjatsaid1]

It doesn't spin?

[@thomfoz]

@@zawjatsaid1 no, it doesn't have a spin cycle

[@maineapple52]

Thank you Thom. Great demo! :)

[@cjpwolf2436]

its that agitator motor go back and forth like those in the way of small portables? or is it gears moving it back and forth?

[@thomfoz]

It reverses electronically

[@cjpwolf2436]

@@thomfoz what if this did have a basket. [i do know it doesn't have basket or spin cycle] but what if it did.

[@thomfoz]

@cjpwolf2436 it would add cost to the product, it would need a suspension to be able to spin, a more powerful motor, then it would be considered an automatic washer and TLA would be forced to meet the EPA standards, so it would lose the agitator and it would wash and rinse with 2 tablespoons of water and everybody would hate it.

[@cjpwolf2436]

@@thomfoz its a removeable basket like those cheap ones. I'm sorry there. I'm doing a project that involves a to make the outside look like a Kenmore design.

[@thomfoz]

@@cjpwolf2436 that's cool. I'm curious. Email me the results.

[@smorgasbroad1132]

Why did they get rid of the Superpop? 😠

[@thomfoz]

The products are in constant evolution, the Poseidon is the evolution of the Superpop

[@raymcdowell7302]

Need these in the uk

[@joaodasilva2424]

Esta sería a lavadora wanke né kkkkk, maravilhosa 🎉.

[@thomfoz]

Nao, ela foi projetada em parceria com a Wanke, mas é diferente da versão existente aí.

[@truskymedia]

No spin cycle

[@thomfoz]

@@truskymedia no, it doesn't have a spin cycle
