Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Don't expect it to perform, overall, like a full size washer, because it isn't. But it does wash clothes and bedding well (the agitation function works very well), and gets them clean. Just make sure you don't overload it, and fill it with enough water per load, so it can do its job. Too bad the container for spinning the water out of your laundry is smaller than the container for washing, which means you have to leave some of your sopping wet laundry in the washer side, while you spin what can fit into the side that spins off the water. Then do the same for your remaining (wet) laundry, The water intake hose that's included probably won't fit your faucets. As with many others, it didn't fit mine either, so I have to fill it by hand, using a bucket or pots full of water. If you have a hand-held shower attachment and a bathtub, that will probably work well, but I don't. It will smell like plastic when you first get it, as others have commented. I put a combo of water and white vinegar in the first wash, and that helped, as well as letting it air out for the first 24 hours. If you're washing towels, clothes, or, anything that is likely to have a lot of lint in it, for the first time, I advise you first use a full size washer so the lint can drain out well. The washing tub isn't big enough, and doesn't allow for enough water, for this to happen. These are the things I'd have liked to have known before making the purchase, but I have to say that even so, it really is a great little washing machine, and I'm quite happy with it.
