Twin tub washing machine

With politicians and hedge fund managers pushing for us all to pay more for everything it's time to push back and spend less on water, electricity and gas. This new efficient little twin tub machine truly does more with less.

I put mine on a dolly so I can roll mine over to the walk-in shower and drop the hose. Put a knee high stocking on the hose so stop the left over lint from going down my shower drain. I have a small hose connected to the second faucet sink I don’t use, and use that to fill it up. I also make my own laundry soap, bathing soaps, deodorant, shampoos. Trying to save as much money as I can. It’s a shame I have to do it to save every penny but at least my clothes are cleaner than that stupid expensive fancy wash machine I have. If this one goes out I’ll buy another one since I like using it so much.

The majority of these are made by Giantex/Costway. They can be gotten from Amazon or Temu (Temu is usually cheaper). They are NOT fully automatic, though there are a few fully automatic versions. Generally you would do a wash cycle, spin (with some water going in the nozzle on the spin side (or you can pause it, spray in some water from the top, close it, and spin some more). A couple of the "pause" to wet spins does a pretty good job at getting out MOST of the soap. RETURN your clothes to the wash tub, with fresh water, and some fabric softener before a final spin cycle. The AVERAGE life of these can be 2 to 4 years depending on use, and cost anywhere between $80 and $180 US.

I have a washer just like that one and it will wash my queen sheets one at a time. I don’t like my expensive fancy wash machine cause it hardly uses water . So, my question is how does your clothes get clean with hardly any water? That’s why I got this so I could regulate the water level. I’m in my late 60’s and I’m used to extra hard work. At least my clothes come out cleaner.

Our old washing machine was marketed as using less water than other machines but the water meter told a different story. This little twin tub is much more efficient
