COSTWAY Portable Washing Machine, 2-in-1 Twin Tub 26lbs Capacity Laundry Washer(18lbs) and Spinner(8lbs) with Control Knobs, Timer Function, Drain Pump, Perfect for Home Apartment RV, Grey

I have always wanted to buy a double-tub washing machine like this. I bought a portable single-tub washing machine from other platforms before. It broke quickly and the machine was not strong enough for washing. However, the washing machine I bought this time is very easy to use and stirs the water. The washing power is very strong, the washing is very clean, and the spin drying is also very easy. It can spin the clothes very dry, and they can be dried quickly indoors in California. The packaging of this washing machine is also very good. The machine was packed very tightly and safely when it arrived, and the machine itself is not heavy. I can move it around at will (I often need to put it in the bathtub for use, and it is not heavy and easy to move).

I love this portable washer. It is easy to use and cleans the clothes. I have had this for a year now and it still runs very well. The spin dryer does a great job of getting the water out of the clothes. You have to be careful and not over stuff the dryer it will cause it to go off balance its an easy fix, you just have to rearrangethe clothes. I am surprised at how much you can wash in one load. I can wash my sheets,blankets and towels without any issues. Unfortunately it can't wash a queen/king sized comforter. If you have a small space and have no washer dryer hook ups I definitely recommend getting this. I use liquid laundry soap and liquid fabric softener they work fine. I tried the laundry pods and those worked too. They dryer can be loud but it's not too bad. The only downside I have is the hose that you hook up to the facet does not fit so I have to to hold it while I fill up the washer. It is definitely cheaper to buy one of these instead of going to the laundry matt and it saves you time as well. ❤️

Washer works just as good as the day I purchased it!! Just as good as a full size washer, lightweight, not too noisy and it spins clothes almost dry! I can wash about 4 pair of jeans at a time! Rhe clothes always come out clean and on time! Much more speedy than I thought it would be. Very impressive!!

Purchased in October of 2023. The first few weeks were great. I was ready to post a fantastic review about it. Now here we are in December 2024 and the washing machine has completely died. A few weeks after purchasing, it started making a lot more noise than before. The motor sounded like it was struggling, but my clothing was washing just fine. I’d occasionally open the back to see if something was loose or whatever, but nothing seemed wrong. The last two weeks I’ve had it, leading up until today, it was making awful noises. The motor sounded like it was grinding/falling apart. Again, took the back off to inspect, even while running, and I couldn’t find anything wrong. Must be inside of the motor? The clothing stopped spinning entirely. But the pump and the spinner still worked just fine. I wiggled it around a bit and got it to work again. Went downstairs to finish cleaning and I could smell this god awful burning smell. I can’t describe it. Melting plastic smell? The motor was making noise but the laundry wasn’t spinning. I was practically gagging from the smell so I had to rush it down the stairs and out the door. Thankfully, the garbage men picked it up without any issues. Because it’s been a little over a year, I don’t qualify for any reimbursement, discounts, repairs, or whatever. The first machine I had (Gigantex) lasted me nearly three years - I will be returning to that brand, and likely the same load capacity. The reason I bought this one in the first place was because it could handle slightly larger loads.

Let me start off by saying, it's worth it and it works great. I do little loads throughout the week so this is perfect for me and my 2 kids. The one thing the bugs me though? If there are zipper hoodies, pants or long sleeved t-shirts in together. They will ball up. So I check it regularly and move clothes about when needed. Other than that. It is easy to use, does the job pretty good. The second part? The filter in the corner. That's fine to take out the small part. Cleaning the entire long part and inside? Not easy. I took it off thinking it would "click" back in. Nope. I had to take the top part off to insert that piece back in. A lot of extra work for that. Other than that it's been fantastic to have.

We don't have washer dryer hookups in our apartment, so I looked into portable washers. This one was decently priced and seems to hold a larger load, so we decided to try it out. SO GLAD WE DID. This little thing was able to hold a queen sized fleece throw blanket, cleans in 3-12 minute cycle with normal or gentle wash. And oh man the spin cycle is AMAZING. Our clothes can be line dried in a few hours after going through the spin cycle. There's a inlet to add water but it was too slow for us, ended up using a 5 gal home Depot bucket in the shower and that worked great. 2-3 bucketfuls of water does the trick. For the spin cycle, we break it into a few loads, and definitely remember to put the little disk in before it spins. It's not noted in the instructions but it keeps the items inside the spinner. We didn't for one time, and a sock got stuck into the water drainage and we had to take it apart to get it out.

This unit has a drain pump, so it can be used in the kitchen, and the water will drain up into the sink. They do not recommend using it in the bathtub because of the slant. I bought a rubber dog bathing hose to extend from the kitchen tap into the washing basin (the included attachment hose is completely useless). And lastly, I bought a pack of 4 small hard rubber coasters that go under the feet of the machine, to absorb vibration and sound. Tiny amount of liquid detergent and baking soda, and ready to wash. Rule #1 ... do NOT overload. You cannot use it to wash bed blankets. Sheets yes, blankets, no, very small personal cozy blankets, yes. Less clothing is better. You don't want to stress the mechanism. Do NOT try to wash, drain or spin dry at the same time ... you will damage the unit. All 3 modes use just one central motor, so it's meant to wash only, then drain only, then spin dry only. Never at the same time. Rule #2 ... spin dry very few garments at one time. One load of laundry will probably take 3-4 spin dries (spin jeans separately, 2 shirts separately, socks and underwear together). But it really does take out 95% of the water. You can hang dry the washed items, and they're dry in a few hours (I also bought a clothing tree and hangers to hang dry). Rule #3 ... keep track of your drain hose. Always make sure it's in the sink, hooked over a bucket or something, because if you forget to remove it from the side of the machine, you're going to have water everywhere. I would NOT recommend leaving the machine unattended when washing or draining for this reason. If you factor in everything above, this device is amazing for an apartment. It washes really well, and spin dries enough so you can hang dry. If you are hang-drying, 1/2 cup of baking soda in the wash helps soften the wash, as well as removing stains (tip). I feel like I've gone back in time when my mother used to use an old washer and roller. And I love it. I do more frequent small loads of laundry, never have to go down to a shared laundry room, and don't have to pay for each wash and dry in a crowded laundry room. After a short period of time this machine will pay for itself.

Great little machine!! It takes a bit of trial and error but overall it's a fun way of saving coins at the laundromat... fill to the medium line for most loads. Drain is easy but leave it on a bit longer. The hookup for the spin is nice because then it can be rinsed! I fill the tub, put it on for 12-15 minutes, drain it, then fill it up and do another 12-15 for the 'rinse' cycle. Then I put it in the spinner. Sometimes it clunks on the sides so I rebalance it. Again, I LOVE THIS! Oh and clothes can get tangled so they recommend using a mesh bag. I just stop the wash process, (turn off the dial) and move the clothes around.

Washer/Spinner works as it should and is as described. It is nice to do laundry at home rather than the bother and expense of the laundromat. It is however totally plastic, it operates similar to a Hoover Washer I had years ago, but lacks in quality. With gentle use I hope it might last a few years.

This arrived yesterday and I put it straight to work and I was surprised on how light this is as I will have to move it around. Knowing that this can't handle large loads, it worked perfectly. The wash cycle definitely brought out the dirt on my work clothes which you can see by the color of the water afterwards and the spin cycle was fast with great results. I've seen reviews where people stated the pump motor stopped operating properly and I can only wonder if it might be because they let it run to long. A pump will burn out if there is nothing to pump so keep that in mind and turn it off when the flow of water starts to fade off. Don't worry, the spin cycle will take care of the rest. My only wish is that the spinning side was the same capacity as the the washing side but this doesn't change the fact that it's performing and at a great price point!!! Perfect for one person and manageable for two. I haven't tried it out on queen size bed sheets but am positive that it won't be a problem although I do have my doubts it will work on a comforter at least on the spin cycle which is fine. Understanding what you're buying here is key. If you think this will ever keep up or compare to a standard washer then you will be disappointed so don't bother buying and wasting everyone's time. This is meant for singles and couples, not family's that have tons of laundry everyday and are on time constraints. I hope this helps you out

Purchased this for our summer home. I actually prefer it to my full size washer at home. My only complaint is that the hose to attach to a sink doesn't fit any of our faucets. I keep this in the bathroom and fill it up with buckets of water which is much faster anyway. Cleans better than any full size high efficiency machine ever could.
