Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is my 3rd portable washing machine (in 5 months -- Gah!) and also my 1st fully-automatic option. I feel confident to advise that if you have the means to spend a little more on a washing machine, a fully-automatic machine is the way to go. Please, treat yourself! That said, the past 5 months have proven to be the most tumultuous stint I've endured, laundry-wise. Fortunately, the arrival of Panda's Fully-Automatic Portable Washing Machine signified the glorious death to that era. This machine has wheels -- two of 'em. They're located at the back, so it's completely portable if you have the strength and agility to maneuver it to a faucet or to the cold water outlet for a full-size washing machine hook-up. If you'd rather not risk it, the machine accommodates many of the square-shaped dollys. Another premium feature for this model are the higher-quality inlet and drain pump hoses included. The hoses that came with the two machines I'd purchased prior were flimsy and seemed better suited for beer bongs or some other purpose that doesn't involve supplying water to a machine powered by electricity. The washing basket is wider than it is deep, and right away I noticed my clothes weren't getting as twisted and tied together in this set up than the deep and narrow tub found in my previous machines. Hooray! My sweaters would no longer have a normal sleeve for my arm and the other sleeve "modified" and adapted for my leg! More than anything else, the Panda model does a more thorough job cleaning my clothes. I dare say it cleans better than a mid-to-high range standard size washing machine, and it achieves this QUIETLY. I'm on the 2nd floor in my building and I like my downstairs neighbor; its nice to know that doing my laundry doesn't disrupt her as much as it does when I accidentally knock loose all of the hangers from the drying rack onto the hardwood floor at 2:30 am on a Tuesday. All in all, this Panda Fully-Automatic Portable Washing Machine is exactly what I needed and is exactly what I wanted. The only thing that I would change is superficial, and that's the color of the lid. UPDATE - November 2022: I am absolutely thrilled to report that my machine continues to knock my laundry out as well as it did when I first purchased this guy. To echo the sentiments of another reviewer, I recommend that you DO NOT lag on laundry day as I did -- ONCE -- much to my peril. Because you must not overfill the machine, "normal-sized" laundromat loads are a thing of the past with this machine, so contingent on how often you do your laundry, as well as how large your items are & how thick the material, don't be surprised to find your loads are now cut to as little as 1/3 of what a normal machine can handle. Prepare yourself to be laughed at when using a normal-sized machine; when visiting friends from afar, I was absolutely amazed at how much of my laundry I could fit into their 5G/wifi/bluetooth/Spotify-enabled/part air-fryer & coffeemaker* monstrous front-loading machine! I just kept feeding it and feeding it and feeding it... it was like Mary Poppin's bag, I kid not! Alas, this is not a review for that washing machine/pet groomer/ tax preparer -- this review is to provide an honest update, in spite of my jest. In closing, I am as in love with this machine as I was when it finished washing my first load of clothes. I *still* highly recommend this machine! *Okay, honestly, all it could do was connect to the wifi.
