Worth it

The other reviews on here made me hesitant but after doing some research on this model and understanding what the apparent hose issue was I finally purchased it.
If you are hooking this up to a kitchen faucet like me, you will need a hose adapter (one cost me six dollars at Canadian Tire) I literally only had to google "kitchen sink to hose adapter" and found the proper adapter immediately. Even if you buy a longer hose you will still need this adapter, that's normal.
Also understand that this is not a full size washing machine and constant overloading will likely break it pretty quickly. Note the weight capacity.
That said, it doesn't feel cheap to me, I bought this to replace a twin tub portable washer and this is closer to a regular washing machine than to one of those (thankfully).
The clothes come out very clean. I first tried this on dirty lake water clothes and watched the drainage go from brown to clear by then end of it.
The capacity isn't an issue to me, it's what I was expecting. I can do a load of towels or sheets in it just fine, but I would still go to a laundromat for my blankets.
Paired with a mini dryer laundry has become something I look forward to because of these cute little machines and the only time I ever need the laundromat is for comforters.
You can even get a faucet diverter to use with it so that you don't have to disconnect and reconnect the hose to use your sink again,that is if you're storing the machine close enough anyway.

Difficult to hook up if your tap isn't standard. Ok for smallish loads, but pump stopped working after 2 months.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great little machine

Received about 5-6 weeks ago. Easy to setup and didn’t require any tools. Follow the instructions and you can’t go wrong. Use this washer at least 5 times a week. It takes a good amount to laundry and doesn’t require a lot of soap. The spinner dries the clothes well enough so they do not drip water as drying.
Excellent for single or couple. Very pleased.

Don't waste your many, I have bought it more than a week ago and still didn't figure out how to hook it, for $ 330 they weren't able to include a hose adapter !
