Me watching this three years later and realizing that it was just at the start of the pandemic... Oof this Gabby didn't know what was coming. Glad everyone enjoys this review!!
Hey I really need some help, I have the same issue with not being able to hook mine up directly and have to pour in the water like you do, but I can't seem to time it right. Like it never does a run proper. Could you tell me the timings of when you add water to your program? It would be a huge massive help!
I'd like to say thank you for demonstrating that you can fill it up manually, especially since not everyone has the same faucet hook‐up. Not one video mentions this important detail. I have this problem too and now you convince me to buy one. Thanks again.❤❤❤
I got my washer and forgot what to do so your video was helpful. I was pissed. I said oh well its going back then I recalled your review and yep my water level was low. I am happy now. Thanks so much!👏😁
How you doing with it.? I'm trying to speed wash but a complete cycle wash rinse and spin. Still can figure out. My other I could of done all in 20 minutes
You need to buy a faucet adapter to hook up that portable washing machine supply line hose that it came with if you want to hook it up properly to your sink, Home depot sells them and Amazon. Faucet Adaptor. You can also buy a much longer washing supply line.
THANK YOU for posting this. I have the twin tub portable right now but next I wanna get fully automatic and none of the hoses ever fit my sinks. I was looking to see if you could manually add water but NOBODY posted about that as an option.
You need a ”3/4” male garden hose thread" adapter. Example: ”3/4in male garden hose thread X 3/4" female IPT" (Iron Pipe Thread). That is your fill hose to water supply connector. But it should hook right up to a garden hose without any adapter. Don't over tighten.
Ok so on this portable washer you can use a 3/4 inch washing machine hose type (that's the screwy part size) female to female end fittings... (or) 3/4 inch female to female hose type garden hose.. That's the exact replacement part you can get for the crappy stock hose that comes with this machine.. (It's a good machine don't get me wrong) However that hose type end fitting won't fit your sink faucet.. There are a couple of different sink tap sizes as well as male or female types so... (Or in other words inny outy or screw over or screws inward just to name a couple..) this is best way for me to explain that to you... So best way is take the aerator off the sink faucet tap... And go to hardware store or like home depot or Menard's and get sales guy and tell him that you need a 3/4 inch hose (pick lenth 3 foot 4 foot or whatevee you need in length) tell sales guy you need it to be female on both sides... And then tell him... Now you need a fitting for one end of the hose to go from 3/4 inch to (show him the sink aerator) this size sink faucet... The aerator is that part that you can unscrew off of your sink tap.. Also ask the sales guy for some plumbers Teflon tape for water pipes... And be sure the round washers are in the hose end fittings and the washers are in the faucet tap adaptor... If it still leaks sometimes you might need a thicker washer.... keep that in mind Wrap all threads including the washing machine inlet hose thread with the Teflon tape... And be sure all fittings are snug.. Yes? 😉 Try that...
I like it! The only thing I worry about with the cart underneath is making sure the wheels have locks on it so it does not roll off and dump over or something. Thank you for sharing. Sincerely Jacqueline Trimm Syme Hamblen Morrison family bloodline. ❤😇🙏😎
I bought this machine cause it's the only semi-automated machine that fits in my small flat. However I'm having two problems with it: 1) I've been finding that some of my clothes come out of the cycle with the seam partially unstitched in some places. I've been looking inside the machine for some sharp spot that may be causing this but everything seems just fine. I don't know what can be since I haven't changed anything in my washing routine, and this wasn't happening before with other washing machines. 2) The amount of lint that some clothes are getting after a washing cycle is sometimes crazy. And I also do not know why, since this had never happened before with other machines either. I wonder if somebody has also experienced any of these issues with this machine? :(
I have this washing machine. FYI do not overload it. If you do you will end up stripping the centre of the agitator plate. Speaking from experience. I was able to find the part and I fixed my washer.
Gabriella Antonia ? For that hose hook up you should go to home depot bring the hose it came with, with you and look for a adapter and extension hose along with some thread seal tape.
I’m having the same issue and idk what to do I’ve bought multiple different hoses and I have an adapter and it still leaks!!!! Idk wtf to do and it flooded my bathroom😫
ok so that sound like its grinding you left the shipping block on the bottom, you have to take that out or you will destroy the machine. over all great machine for a newborn to wash cloth
I I swear on this machine this thing is saving me money time and I'm single in my own apartment so it works great get yourself a little dryer to go with it also
Being able to watch as it fills is annoying , but should that start when full malfunction, you have a flood , ...I like that better , also , we are not beating our clothes on a rock by the river 😂
Thanks. This was the first helpful review I've seen on this machine. Good to know that you can just manually fill the machine. Thanks again.

This was very helpful. The idea about storing the drain hose into the washer is a good tip. Thanks!
I got my washer and forgot what to do so your video was helpful. I was pissed. I said oh well its going back then I recalled your review and yep my water level was low. I am happy now. Thanks so much!👏😁
Good. Review you. Explain it the way. People. Need. To. See. What. To. Do
How you doing with it.? I'm trying to speed wash but a complete cycle wash rinse and spin. Still can figure out. My other I could of done all in 20 minutes
I have since moved and sold it, so I no longer have it!
I just bought this model for $199 on Amazon. I am glad for this review
Thank you. Just the video I was looking for. 🥰

Wow small but mighty. Thanks for sharing the struggles and the pros as well 😊

Than you for the video! How is it running 1 year later?
Smart with the dolly
How many times do u have to add the water for rinse cycle?
Also does this work as a dryer?
I am glad you did this review using the hose, bc i tried to do the same and it didn't work, so now I know why.
I didn't put enough water.
I got mine today can't wait hook it up .😁
Hi does this washer have a fast setting or is every wash 40 minutes long
Wow I'm impressed, who's the doll?

Hi gaby, and does this washing machine still work for you? I'm about to buy one.
I'd like to know
Thank you
Some are over $300. What y'all think ? Is it the motor lasting long time ? That I want. Thx for review
Is there a filter for lint ?

I am having the lint problem too and have no clue where it comes from.
I contacted the store today and asked for a solution.
Otherwise love this thing
Can you clean bedding and blankets with it, is it to small? Ty
Manually pouring water is better and keep your water pump safe from bursting
I have this washing machine. FYI do not overload it. If you do you will end up stripping the centre of the agitator plate. Speaking from experience. I was able to find the part and I fixed my washer.
If I am being honest it looks like your machine is broken. Overloading. If you wish I can record my washing machine in the was cycle for comparison.
Why you using a hose pipe
How do you know when do add the water? And how much?
I did it manually, so I hit start and started filling and once it had enough water it would "react" and start washing!
can you manually pour water into the washer?
I got same one what do you need the water running all the time cuz mine is in the kitchen so I use the kitchen sink
Gabriella Antonia ? For that hose hook up you should go to home depot bring the hose it came with, with you and look for a adapter and extension hose along with some thread seal tape.
did it last 3 years? just curious
I sold it before we moved to Florida maybe... 6 months after this video?
Hows it do with jeans?
Can someone please help me my washer isn't spinning and what is the model number on it thanks
I purchased a different inlet hose at home depot for $9.
You will need a pliers to tightened it on the machine.
What the name of the hose?
I’m having the same issue and idk what to do I’ve bought multiple different hoses and I have an adapter and it still leaks!!!! Idk wtf to do and it flooded my bathroom😫
Loctite 55
My drain hose has cracked after a few months of normal use. What is the right kind/size of hose to replace it? Thanks!
I would take it to your local improvement store they should be able to point you in the right direction!
ok so that sound like its grinding you left the shipping block on the bottom, you have to take that out or you will destroy the machine. over all great machine for a newborn to wash cloth
Is this machine good
It does the job it was better than trips to laundromat for me!
I I swear on this machine this thing is saving me money time and I'm single in my own apartment so it works great get yourself a little dryer to go with it also
Y si se rompe cómo la arreglo no encuentro nadie q las arregle
