INTERGREAT Portable Washing Machine with Longer Hose, Twin Tub Washer Mini Compact Laundry Machine with Drain Pump, 16lbs Portable Washer Dryer Combo for Dorms, Apartments, Grey

Honest review, 10/10 recommend
Pros- For apartment living, this is perfect! I used the washing machine a few times and didn’t like it at first, but once I figured out the water to clothing ratio it was perfect! I either let everything air dry which takes about 2 days to fully dry where I live (for larger things like pants and sweat shirts) or 2/3 hrs in my hanging clothes dryer. 10/10 would recommend. Liquid detergent works better than the pods in my opinion. I do 1 wash with soap then 1 wash with just water. It spins almost all of the water out of the clothes, including pants! It’s easy to move around, I typically leave it in my shower unless I need to use the shower because it’s easier. It worked well for the light weight throw blanket I have as well! I’ve used mine about 5 times now and it gets easier each time I use it.Cons- it takes a while to fill the tank for washing. The hose didn’t fit my sink fixture so I have to fill it manually with a bowl which takes a while. I have to put it in my tub because the hose isn’t long enough to drain properly without going all over the floor. I wish the hose was ever so slightly longer. Works good in the tub though. I would definitely some sort of stand to have the hose drain correctly. You can only do a certain amount of pants/towels or else the spinner doesn’t work properly and risk the motor burning out.If you can look past the minor inconveniences of the hose/washing amount, I’d recommend it! If you lived alone and wanted to wash your outfit that night after getting home to keep up on the laundry, Id consider it. Takes a while if you let your clothes/towels pile up though so keep that in mind!

READ THIS FIRST SO YOU KNOW!!! The spinner is TOO SMALL
UPDATE: This will ONLY work for small items! My twin sheets struggle to fit only one in the spin basket and it starts shaking loudly. I have to try about 4 times to get it to spin out one flippin sheet. Now I have to buy a separate spinner for anything bigger than a towel. This spin basket is only big enough for tshirts, socks and underware and hand towels. thin beach towels work. I also NOW have to buy a real portable dryer! That is like $500 more just to dry the clothes. I wish I had known. When winter comes there is NO WAY this will help with a blanket!The WASHER Is big and wonderful! You have to wash then drain then fill with clean water then drain again then try to get the spin basket to not wobble like crazy.= The Spinner basket is sooo small and will wobble like insanity if it is off balanced in the first 3 seconds! Very scary sounding! I am scared to turn on the spinner every time not knowing if it will shake like crazy. You have to super fast turn off the spinner and move things around. You can only spin out 4 pieces of clothes at one time … like one shirt, thin shorts socks and underwear. That is one load in the spinner. Then you must hang your clothes up for several hours to air dry.Today I washed in ONE LOAD… 7 shirts, 4 pair of lightweight shorts and 6 pair of socks. You must spin out the water in 4 separate loads of 2 to 5 mins each so that is 15 mins wash time and 20 mins dry time. Pretty cool! BUT>>>>>>>> This will NOT easily even spin out a twin sheet without the WOBBLE unless it is a thin twin size sheet! I SO dont think I can use this in the winter at all! It will NOT spin out anything larger than a regular bath towel. You can forget about an extra size or heavy weight bath towel or even a blanket. NO WAY will it fit in here! The spinner is so small. It is 4 times smaller than the washer. BEWARE you will need an actual dryer and spinner that are larger! This is great for shirts, baby clothes and small stuff but NO WAY would a Queen size sheet fit in the spinner basket. This spinner starts to wobble and shake the unit like crazy where you must immediately turn the dial back to off and reposition what you are attempting to spin the water out of. It spins SO FAST that it must be balanced right off or it wont work without scaring you with how loud.Now there is a gas smell of oil inside when you lift the lid that is super annoying if you are sensitive to smells. It does not get on your clothes. You just cant leave the lid open without smelling it. I have used this 6 times and it is still there.Ok, so first the postal worker dropped this package a bit to hard in my opinion when it was delivered and I was worried it would not work but IT WORKS GREAT! I have it in the bathtub, not elevated at all and the drain tube just needs to be laying down in the tub to work. Make sure to gently tip the unit side to side to drain before taking it out of the tub.YOU MUST ADD CLEAN RINSE WATER as Step II and FIRST CHANGE IT FROM THE DRAIN SETTING! so I figured that out quickly LOL. The drain water was dirty so that was great to see. The rotating to the left then the right and repeating is wonderful. This washer is awesome!This holds alot of washing but will take you 4 loads to spin out the water in the clothes. So that is 20 mins to spin out all the water from one wash load. It took me an hour to do my first load with setup and learning. The instructions are stupid. I read them like 20 times hoping they would make sense LOL NOPE… You can figured it out tho.I could not get the lint trap out of the washer and that was frustrating. I figured out using my shaving razor handle I could pop it out. You have to clean it each time after a wash.One more thing, the box it comes in says 26 lbs but if your needing it to be lighter, take it out of the box to carry in then its only like 17 lbs easy to carry up stairs by yourself!I use an extension cord from another room and this works just fine. This is a 3 prong outlet and I only have a 2 prong in the bathroom so I had to do this. Works good.
