Portable Washing Machine, 16 L Mini Washer with 3 Modes Deep Cleaning for Underwear, Baby Clothes, Sock, Small Items, Foldable Travel Washer and Dryer Combo for Apartments, Camping, Travel, RV (Grey)

This is never going to replace a full sized washer, obviously. But for what it is, it is kind of neat. Fully extended it is about the size a of 5 gallon paint bucket, but collapses down much smaller. It seems well made and water tight, and includes a drain plug at the bottom. The electronic part of it consists of agitator at the bottom of the bucket that, when plugged in, will circulate the contents of the bucket for the selected amount of time. When selecting the spin cycle, the agitator spins in only one direction. This is intended to be used with the included spin basket, allowing you to spin some of the water out of your clothes. This last part did not seem very effective, due mostly to the small diameter of the spin basket. Speaking of which make sure to look at the recommended load sizes, and set your expectations accordingly. This is a fairly tiny container, and only a few items of clothing can be washed at a time. Over all, I think this will come in handy on camping trips and car travel, although I may end up hand washing items more often then I use the electric features.

I believe these are influencers who left these five star reviews trying to make a little coin. Four small pair of underwear and I’m a very small person and it barely handled it. I put the spin basket in and there was no drying going on as far as wicking the water out of your garments. And now I can’t get the spin basket out in order to collapse the unit and start it away. I’m giving it two stars because it struggled to even do for a pair of underwear if anybody knows how to get that basket out of the tub let me know. Because with that basket in there, you’re not washing anything. Not sure how the one guy is washing shop rags when the instructions clearly say not to use it for that purpose because you’ve got oil, gas, etc., on the rags and it won’t even handle four pairs of underwear.

I have a metal and wood working shop as well as mechanic type projects where I have oily and heavily soiled rags I would rather not run through my washing machine. The description covers a lot, but my question was how does it dry the load? The included video shows it spin drying a mens XXL heavy material shirt. So several shop rags or 1 or 2 towels would fit in the small basket to spin dry as it drain the dirty water out. It works excellent for my purposes and will probably take it camping and on road trips too. Breaks down to the size of a medium sized griddle and doesn't weigh much. The built in carry handle is a nice feature as well.

It washes well a very small load (like 3 tee-shirts XS and 3 panties), a larger load will not roll (not powerful enough). The spinner does not get out all the water, I had to do it by hand after that. It is hard to detach the spinner in order to take it out so one can put a new load to wash. Over all, easier to wash by hand a larger load. If you really do not want to wash by hand, then it will do, but takes more time to put in small loads all the time, and do not count on the spinning.

I recently purchased this portable washing machine from Amazon, and I couldn’t be happier! It’s compact yet powerful, making it perfect for apartments and small homes. The setup was super easy, and it runs quietly while getting my clothes thoroughly clean. The spin dryer is also a game-changer, cutting down drying time significantly. It’s energy-efficient and doesn’t use much water, which is a huge plus. If you’re looking for a convenient, space-saving laundry solution, this is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!
