I used it a few times. Doesn’t wash much laundry, and it walks while washing! Literally walks across room! Also noisy. Doesn’t wash well either (I used it for underwear, socks, pantihose). They come out soggy and you have to wring them. Cheap prodcuct.

I purchased this from As Seen on TV and was shipped a Sweet Machine instead. When I called, an employee stated the mailing labels are done in bulk and there was a mix up in my order. I told him it was a gift due on Wednesday 12/19 but he assured me that I would receive the item in one week by Thurs, 12/20/07. It is Friday 12/21, and still no item. Several friends have purchased the washer and love it. The item itself is good but beware of the Seller. This has been the worst online experience I’ve had and I warn people before ordering it from As Seen on TV.

This thing takes three half bucket fulls of water to wash a shirt that has been worn for a week. It also becomes noticeably slower with every extra shirt you put in for it to wash.
It takes about 3 times what the seller claims (15 minutes per wash) to get a shirt worn for a week clean (when the water stops turning gray).
The problem is that the stupid thing spins in one direct for about 10 to 15 seconds, then spins in the other direction. There is about zero agitation.
It’s also a annoyingly loud and is not the best thing for an apartment with walls you can hear though. It was also making my computer speakers crackle when I had it plugged in to the outlet opposite of the room with the computer speakers.
The timer knob is difficult to turn past 6 or 9 minutes, I forget which, and requires that you use either both hands or have a rubber glove on to turn the annoying thing.
You can wash items faster by holding them still against the swirl of the water or pulling them along in the opposite direction.
It also has somewhat poor balance (which effects it’s efficiency because some of the motion that could be used to spin the clothes clean ends up moving the body of the whole machine instead. The top isn’t flat so it’s not easy to make it stay put by say putting some junk books on top of it or a rock.
This is not a good value for someone trying to save water or energy but if you are poor, very disabled, always exhausted, don’t want to hear your washing machine, or if you want some extra device nearby for a “quick” wash because you don’t feel like walking to your washing machine in your big mansion (I wish).
The bucket is decent for washing things by hand but obviously $30-35+ for a big bucket is a rip off these days.
Update: I don’t know why but most of the resistance I encountered in turning the timing knob disappeared.

One can soak clothes overnight and get a better wash than what this machine does to your clothes. It is a total waste of money and what you expect from a washer. Don’t anyone buy it.

This was almost the perfect product I ever purchased. The only problem is after a few washes I constantly have to tighten the screw inside the washer. It’s annoying, but still a minor issue for a great washer. Other than that I love it. I like the fact that my daughter will be unable to turn the buttons since they are so difficult.
