PROS:
Ok, this is a Mini Portable Semi-Automatic Hand Washer. This is basically, a helping hand device. With some participation on your part, this Washer from the YLTIMER Store, is great at assisting you with wash loads that usually have to wait for more clothes to accumulate. You can just wash a Load of Baby Clothes, now. You can Travel with this Mini Washer, and you can't wash your blue jeans, but you can wash you T-shirt, underwear and socks. This is where it is nice to have the UV LED Boost. That would be a great compromise. The Construction, is good. It has to be Lightweight, and it is. It may Sound Underpowered, at First. But, this Machine has Gears, and Variable Speed, and Direction. Also, it was looking like my T-Shirts were getting stuck, and not washed, when actually at the bottom of the Tub, the Agitator Bars were Scrubbing the Fabric that is on the bottom, while it appears to be stuck, then it Reverses Direction, and does the same thing. It repeated this behavior. This will change, most likely with different Fabrics. There will be some getting the Parts to click together the right way. This is a getting to know the quirks of the Machine Period. This is by no means Deal Breaker Territory, this is a Mini "Portable" Washer. The Collapsibility, makes it so it has to be Transformed to its Full Size. So, everything just has to go together correctly to work properly. Like, Clothes should be balanced when placed into the Spinner Basket. The Drain is Manually Operated. It is advantageous, to Wring Excess Water Out by Hand, before placing into the Washers Spinner. If you don't have a Faucet Sprayer to fill the Washer, you can use a Bowl, or Pitcher. I could have went into the Kitchen, but it was just as fast filling it in the Bathroom, with a bowl. It is Portable, but I could see leaving this up, and in place. Just push-it down to its Collapsed Position. It does look good. It is worth having. The funny thing that I noticed about this Washing Machine, is that the Silicone, acts as a Shock Absorber. Sure, its Rubber. This was funny, because Full Sized Washing Machines, have an entire Shock absorbing system. The Silicone, does its job well. I used the Silicone, as my Water Level Guide, and placed my clothes into the Washer, then I adjust the Water Level. The nice Part, is that you can, Re-Start, Re-Wash, Re-Rinse, or Re-Spin your Fabrics at any point during the Process.
CONS:
You will need Water, if you are going anywhere with this Portable Washer. Bring Water, or know where your Water Sources will be along the way, to take advantage of this Machine
A VIEW FROM OUTSIDE OF THE BOX:
The Size, and Function of this Mini Washer, would be great for people that do Craftwork in Textiles. Like Dying Fabric, Yarn, etc., in small batches. Also, people that make Quilts, use sections of Fabric, no larger than a towel. Usually, these are light, Delicate, and expensive, or could be one of a kind Fabrics.
