SUPER DEALPortable Mini Washer and Spinner Combo, 5.7 lbs Capacity Compact Washing Machine with Spin Cycle Basket and Drain Hose for RV Apartments Dorms Camping Traveling, Semi-automatic Laundry 110V

The media could not be loaded. For a few years, I've been researching small, portable washers for our off-grid cabin (we have a generator, and I just purchased a portable power station and solar panel for charging it). I was so pleased to be able to get a power station with enough power for this machine! Before going to the cabin, I tried the system out at home, using a regular wall socket, but to the power station - worked fine. We just returned from a week at the cabin, and while there we had a leak that required mopping up some dirt and water with a bathmat - to try out the washer again, I put that, a pair of womens' lightweight pajamas, and several pairs of socks in for a wash. The capacity for washing and rinsing is impressive - it can hold a lot, but if the load is too heavy, the movement of the clothes is slowed down; I was surprised at how much agitation the little machine actually provides! And as you see in the picture, I used it on the deck, for excellent drainage. Instead of using the hose for filling, I just used a bucket - the filling hose and fitting for the faucet is the only thing about this system that is lacking at all - the "adapter" doesn't really allow for attaching to the faucet - you have to hold in place - once placed properly, it fills well. Or the bucket system works fine. :) So, since my bathmat was dirty, I increased washtime to 9 minutes. Then I removed the laundry while draining water, replaced the laundry, and added clean rinse water - rinsed for about 5 minutes, then drained again. I was able to split this load into two to fit in the spin basket, which was fine. The first, lighter load, spun without having to hold the machine; the second, heavier load required the machine being held (or one could place a heavy item on it). I spun for about 6 minutes each time, and of note - I'll do 8 -10 next time to get them even more dry. Amazing how much spin "Little Junior" (my brother named it! :) ) has!!! Onto a clothes rack in the sunshine and within a few hours all was dry, and the power station was fully charged again. This is a great little system - luxury off-grid!UPDATE: I've seen criticsm about the machine vibrating and moving - it's a lightweight machine, so to me this is expected. With the wash cycle, this isn't an issue at all, even with towels. With spin, it wiggles - please see pictures with the "belt" - a tie-down works great, as I do the laundry on the deck. For larger loads, the capacity is good for washing (I did towels: 3 bath, 3 hand, and 3 washcloths, no problem. I split that into 3 loads for spinning.

Great little washer for our RV. Small loads work the best. The spin feature is pretty much worthless. I have to hold down the machine for it will walk away. I just wring them by hand, get just as much water out.

The media could not be loaded. This little machine is quiet and the agitation is strong. The water drains all the way out which is nice if you use bleach in any load. Easily rinsed out. For us that have used a wringer washer it will remind you of that wonderful experience. Keep using your water until it gets dirty, then easily rinsed and refilled with a 🪣 if you can't use your spigot. It's been basket seems small but I think it'll do a good job. Not going to use it because I have a Nina spin dryer. Definitely recommend!

Summary:- The spin cycle of the washer did not perform as expected.- The seller admitted that the washer usually does not spin properly.- The seller did not want to refund.- I needed to file an A-to-Z claim with Amazon.- I finally got a refund for the item, but I have taken a $10.99 loss on the shipping that was not refunded.Details:I bought this small washer to wash and spin my microfiber towels that I use to wash my car.The input hose is a joke. It's not really a hose. It is more like a long drinking straw. It would be impossible to connect the input hose to any water source. I just filled the washer using the pull-out spout of my kitchen faucet.The wash cycle actually seems pretty decent. There is no agitator, but the water is jetted to create a whirlpool. The jets alternate rotations every few seconds to provide agitation.What I really wanted the washer for was to spin my towels so that I would not need to ring them before letting them air dry. This washer fails horribly at it's spin cycle. There is a very small basket which is to be inserted into the washer for the spin action. It is so small it can only hold a few of my towels; I cannot imagine how normal clothes would be able to fit. The basket does not attach to the washer; it rests within grooves. Almost every time the basket would come loose and dislodge. For the times when the basket did not dislodge, it was so out of balance that the machine would shake and precess. I would try with less towels, more towels, just one towel, etc., and I would try to rearrange evenly, but nothing helped.I contacted the seller, and the seller admitted that the spin cycle does not work properly. In response to the problem I was having with the spin cycle the seller said, "This washing machine is relatively small, small in size and light in weight. It is true that what you said will happen, but it is not a matter of quality. This kind of washing machine almost always does."I wanted a refund, but the seller did not want to give a refund. She offered a small discount and suggested I give the washer away or sell for a small profit. After numerous communications with the seller, I finally needed to file an A-to-Z claim with Amazon. I finally got a refund for the item, but I was not refunded for the $10.99 I paid for shipping.It was a very bad experience: I have lost money, and it has wasted much of my time.
