Breathing Mobile Washer - 4.5 stars, half a star off for opened box (masking tape seal was already broken upon receiving) and just 'ok' instructions.

This, a 5 gallon restaurant grade salad spinner, and a 3.5 cf Kenmore mini dryer I got used has my laundry SET for $250 total. As you can see from the clawfoot tub in the pics/video, I live in an old building. Complete with scary and expensive laundry facilities that are always packed. Add to this the difficulty in finding US quarters to do laundry with.

Gets A LOT of dirt out of clothes and is fairly gentile on them. I have a thick tub mat that helps squish laundry and keeps the tub scratch free. In the video Im using my less dominant left hand to use the Breathing Mobile Washer and it's still doing a great job getting stuff out.

Tips & tricks: Let your laundry soak for 5 minutes in water and detergent / additives before starting. This helps loosen up stains before you start, making the labor process shorter. Use as directed for 4 minutes or so, then let it all soak again for 10 minutes. Come back, agitate again for 2 minutes, then drain, rinse, spin dry or wring, then place into dryer or onto clothes line.

If you're not hearing the breathing noise you hear in the video, and the water line is above the top of the Breathing Mobile Washer, let water out of your tub/container until the waterline is 2-3 inches below the bottom of the smaller cone of the breathing washer. Too much water doesn't allow air to go through.

Happy laundry day y'all!

**UPDATE AFTER 2 WEEKS OF USE**
After refining my methods for washing with this thing, I'm really able to get a lot of dirt out of my clothes. After doing my last load of laundry in a washer at my old apartment, I brought it over to the new place and had some shirts folded up from that wash. Curious if the conventional washer left dirt in those few shirts in my dresser, I put them in the tub and used a little laundry soap with the Breathing Mobile Washer. Yep! Some dirt did come out!! Not a lot, but it does show that conventional washers aren't really perfect or much better than this thing.

You do need to do a good job washing out the soap though. That's one lesson I learned. Now I wash about 2 loads worth in my tub with 1 load worth of soap, use the Breathing Washer, then drain the tub. Fill it up again but not as much, add 1 load of soap in, use the Breathing Washer, drain the tub. Then I fill it up again but no soap, use the Mobile Washer to agitate the remaining dirt/soap out of the clothes, then drain. As it drains I spread the clothes out over the bottom of the tub and use the handheld spray head to rinse the last last remaining soap off. Then wring and put in the 3.5cf dryer I have. Wring the clothes out that are waiting to be dried and hang them up to drip dry some more inside/over/whatever your tub....that'll cut down drying time for those loads in your dryer if you have an electric dryer.

Hope that helped! I'm sure there are many methods out there to do this and I'm looking to cut down on the water consumption here, even though it's about equivalent to what a washing machine would use in 2 loads or so.
