Oh yes! It’s definitely worth it! I just got one a few days ago, the same size, but the Zeny model! And your funnel hack is really cool! But I bought a Rinseroo to fill it from the shower, and I rinse thru the water inlet on the spinner side with the Rinseroo. It eliminates the need to rinse in the wash tub. I invite everyone to see how I use the Rinseroo in my brief video. /ruclips.net/video/p4-_4RFRcnA/видео.html.
I just tried mine for the first time and I love it! I spun the dirty wash water out with the spinner and then poured some clean water on top of that and spun it again (2 times total for the rinsing on the spin side). That spin-rinse process got so much soap out that when I went to do a rinse cycle in the wash side, it almost didn't need it because my clothes were almost all clean. Hope that tip helps you! I think your machine might even have a water hose hook-up on the spin side, as well as the wash side (so you could rinse as you spin, like a real washing machine does at one point in the cycle). If only I had a way to hook up the hose on my spin side, I would do that instead of pouring water into it. My machine instructions actually mentioned about letting the water run for 20-30 seconds as it spins (to rinse it). The brand is GloBest, in case anyone is wondering. They didn't mention rinsing it again in the wash tub, so maybe they think that spin rinsing is enough (?). Does anyone find that spin-rinsing is enough by itself?
I purchased my 2nd machine 26lb capacity, larger than I expected which I wanted. But this is so light even this 70yo man can lift it into the tub. Now I can wash almost everything except comforters, in my own home, at my convenience. I have made some adjustments to the process as I have learned from other YT videos. LAUNDRY BAGS: To avoid twisting the clothes during the wash/rinse cycle, I use laundry bags purchased from Dollarama & DollarTree. These work great!! Much cheaper than Amazon sellers. LINT ISSUES: Also I have concerns about all the lint going down the drain, so I attached a knee-high nylon stocking at the end of the drain hose. Amazed at how much lint came off my flannel shirts/fleece jackets, which would end up plugging up the pipes in this old house. Unfortunately the drain hose is not long enough to reach my toilet which is too far away.
I do have a part two on this machine. I use a TubShroom for the lint issues going down the drain. Feel free to check it out if you’d like. But thank you so much for sharing your ideas to! This helps a lot🙏🏽☺️
I just purchased my 2nd twin tub washing machine. I loved my 1st one so much that I had no reservations on buying one again . However this time I upgraded to a larger capacity my 1st washer washed around 12 lbs spun 6 lbs this time I got one with a 18lb wash capacity and 10 lb spin capacity! Lol reason is I like to be able to wash sheets and blankets and u really need that xstra poundage for that job lol what is like to share with others is these washers wash a lot more clothes than u see most reviewers washing and don't be afraid that if ur a plus size person these washers aren't built for ur size. I've literally seen reviews where they said for smaller people's clothes . I'd recommend these twin tubs to anyone who likes to wash at home and is ok with a little interaction. I saw a review where the lady got mad the clothes were wet after draining the wash tub and that she was expected to spin the water out in the spinner she thought it was like a reg washer that did the whole thing like dah! Did she read sor check it out before hand lol
It’s such a great machine! But I love this story, so thank you for sharing(: It helps because I never thought of that until you brought it up. When it comes to having a bigger machine for blankets and more for plus size people as well makes more sense to get a machine with more washing/weight capacity. But lol yes I get that to, like yes it’s a bit more work to work with this machine to spin your clothes but hey it’s better than nothing. And there is always gonna be pros and cons to every machine. But truly I’m just grateful not to not have anything period. And getting used to having to do it it becomes a habit overtime so I really don’t mind ya know? Haha
Update to the update... The washer is working out fine, in fact I'm using it right now. It has saved time and money over the past few months. Later we will be getting a dryer similar to your other video. For my small apartment, the washer has been a godsend. Hoping all is well and best, Stephen
I had something similar way back in the 70s made by Maytag, Loved it. It was all metal construction and also had a drain pump. I used it for several years then gave it to my inlaws after I married their daughter
They're all made in the same place and stamped with different company names. I bought one of them yesterday on Amazon and did a little online digging, because they all look the same. I pretty much knew it anyway because companies have been doing this for decades...have their items made in one factory and slap their name on it. My apartment is basically an Efficiency Plus, meaning one extra bedroom. With the cost of using the laundromats here, the washer will pay for itself in a couple months. This video helped a lot. I'll be saving this one for referral. Thanks! Stephen
Thanks for clarifying on the name thing. I was confused when I first got this machine like wait I ordered Giantex but it says costway lol. But yeah anyway thank you for watching, glad I could help☺️
@@neoshazavala What I ordered is a Habutway (actual spelling) and will be arriving sometime soon today. Who knows what I'll actually get though. Giantex, Costway, Habutway...all the same machine/manufacturer. Spent yesterday removing the old over the toilet shelf and matching small rack. Put together a new over the toilet cabinet and told my daughter that what the cabinet needs is fifteen more packages of hardware to put the thing together. (Sarcasm). Lol. Plenty of room for the washer now in the bathroom. If it arrives and isn't the same brand name, I'll let you know. It's just funny that they did that to you. They probably ran out of the one you ordered and said, "They're all the same. We'll just send her this one instead." Truth, but still a little odd when thought about. In the 60s and 70s, Solengen (sic) Germany hadvs factory that made everything from cutlery to shovels and hammers with their stamp on it. Companies all put their names on them and sold them as their own, so it's nothing really new. I'll be back to rewatch your videos soon, most likely later today, just in case I missed something. Hope you had a nice Christmas and hope it continues into New Year's and the New Year itself. Thanks for the information and the videos. They help a lot. Stephen
Hey I apologize!! I am so late in responding to your message. I’m finding myself learning to find old comments to reply to, and found this gem! Anyhow it is odd I was so confused with this whole name thing, costway, Giantex, whichever haha lol. But did you end up with the same brand machine as mine or a different one? And how’s been your experience after all this time?! See back then seems a bit more understanding when companies would label there own things and kept it as that. But with this situation having the same item with different brand/model names got me messed all the way up 🤣 But anyway thank you so much for your kind words! I’m so happy I could also help you to(: I hope you’ve had a great year and holidays and all the future ones to come as well(:
I just got one of these machines and found your video. Even with my glasses, I couldn't read the manual. Thank you for such a simple yet detailed video and the hacks will come in handy! Thank you!
I've watched a lot of commentary on many of these machines and I just want to say I loved your version the best. You did a beautiful job especially at the beginning showing the undertone of the machine I've not seen anybody do that yet and just your way of explaining things was beautiful.... I wasn't sure about buying this machine- now thanks to you... I will. Sincerely Shawn Titus in Montreal Quebec Canada. Have a great day. 💕💕💕
Hello dear, Shawn here from Montreal Quebec Canada. As I mentioned to you in the previous comment, I said thanks to you I would buy that machine? Well I did, your information gave me a head start and how to use it and I really appreciate it! And you're absolutely right it's a great machine, so thanks again. Shawn.🎃🎃💕
Thank you. Thank you. Because of you, I finally learned how to take out the lint trap! I learned from another video to rubber band a knee-high nylon to the end of the hose that drains the water out. After using the washer, I let the nylon dry out and then scrape out the lint. Works like a charm. Love my washer!
Of course(: So happy I could help you!! Yes I’ve had some others mention that nylon idea as well, which is a great idea. I have a part 2 on this machine if you wanna check that out feel free. I go over more in depth but I have a TubShroom which has been helping me with filtering and making sure hairs don’t get stuck in my drain. Still works pretty good for me today(:
I bought this and the panda dryer 3.5 , very pleased with both: I use buckets only I have one bucket to fill it up , I have one that stays beside it to for the draining . I never use my bathroom only to dump my water, it stays in one area. The Panda dryer hold 13 lbs. Your video is 👏 thank you! Love the Dawn soap idea!!!
Thank you SOOOOOO much for making this video. I have been reading review after review for every portable machine out there and was feeling SUPER overwhelmed. Getting to see this thing in action was incredibly helpful!
Love your channel. You were the only one who gave a thorough demonstration on how to use it, turn the knobs (which no one else showed) and great hacks. Thanks a lot. I also subscribed. Will be sharing your video!🙂👍🏾
This type of machine has been very popular here in the gulf/middle art as much as I can remember since I grew up in the 80s. I am surprised it’s becoming popular in the USA now. We are now veering toward fully automatic washers but lots of house hold still rely on this machine especially if they live in old houses/apartments that didn’t have the facility for the new washers
Yes, once I came across using this, it has been extremely helpful. It’s such a great source for those who don’t have washer/Dryer hookups, traveling, and all! So definitely had to share my experiences with this machine, and shockingly my videos have taken off on this machine. So happy it could help many others!(:
Thank you, that was awesome! I just got mine today (Amazon said by Feb 4th so that was a nice surprise) and while I’ve seen a few videos yours was definitely fantastic. I love the funnel idea! The only real negative for me is that my drain and faucets are on the wrong side of the bathtub. I had the machine facing away from me when I tried it today because I wanted the drainpipe to actually reach into the drain. Since you turned yours on it’s side so we could see the bottom, it actually looks like I might just be able to unsnap the pipe and bring it out the other side. Thanks for the video!!😊
Saw your previous comment on my other video to, thank you so much !! Yes I’m glad I showed the under side so people like you get ideas and different ones I could also learn from so thank you, and thank you for your feedback!! Happy I could help ya to☺️
@@neoshazavala Thanks! The drainage pipe switch to the other side just fine (even has the handy spot to clip it up) and I even went to Walmart last night and got the drying rack. Let the laundry games begin!
You are so awesome making this video. I just got one for my basically off-grid cabin that has power from stations I built and now seeing how you did this has given me ideas on how to make mine work. Have a great day!
LOVE your little creative hack to fill the washer from the shower head! Thanks for taking the time for making this video! Me and my wife are getting one of these llittle machines!
It is worth it in my opinion. It is true that every step must be done by hand, but it’s way better than hauling clothes to the laundromat. Just stay on top of it or your laundry could take an entire day doing mini loads that this requires.
I purchased the Kuppet machine in July. It has a drain pump so I can use the machine in the kitchen and drain up into the sink but otherwise it is the same machine. I spin the clothes between the wash and the rinse to get as much soap put of the clothes as possible. I love my machine and wish I had bought it 2 years ago! Great video! ☺
I've recently purchased a portable washer. I love it! I've watched many videos on RUclips about them. Yours is the best! Thank you for speaking calmly clearly, and pleasantly. I love your tips on your set up. For sure, I'm going to use them. I thought about using the tub. My tub drains too slowly and water may rise above the feet. Just because of where the chord outlet is, prolly not a great 💡. I've been looking through thrift stores for a small table to sit by the tub. I also purchased an electrical water pump syphon to drain it more quickly. My drain is kinda slow. Not sure if I'll keep the edition. I like your simple set up best. I'm definitely using a funnel for the intake hose. Thanks again!
Hey thank you so much! I really appreciate that(: I’m happy I helped! It’s always good to try and find new things you can do to make life a bit easier for sure! I wish you the best!!
Great thorough review. I’m looking to determine if I’ll need to buy one of these and to help with my decision I needed to see a step by step video like you provided. It gave me the practical information I needed, so thanks 🙏🏽. Those things are a marvel.
Thank you so much! I appreciate🙏🏽 if it helps add anything if you haven’t seen part two, it’s on my channel as part two of this same machine. I made that video to go more better in detail that I missed in this first video. Please feel free if that video also helps you out I’d suggest to watch part two🙏🏽☺️
Sorry, late response just going through comments, and I guess I’ve missed a few, but to answer your question. It’s really not the most quiet machine when running wash and spin, so if you were to do a load, I’d make sure your neighbors are cool, your lease doesn’t have anything saying you can’t have one, and to make sure that you use the machine at appropriate hours throughout the day where you feel it wouldn’t be an interruption for others around you(: Hope that helps!
@@neoshazavala ¬ Thanks for the response! I recently acquired a Danby portable washing machine with a pump and spin cycle. It's actually very quiet! I spent 200 on a used model and it works very well. Thank you for your vidz :)
Just my two cents (I grew up using these machines, so I know how to use these twin tub models quite well): - You can actually reuse the water. Wash the less soiled clothes first and the more soiled ones last. The less soiled ones can be done in 3 minutes, the more soiled ones might need a full 15 minutes cycle, but you can manage to wash a lot more than just one load in one water. Don’t worry that it looks dirty, a lot of it is just the color leakage of the clothes. - you can get those hand held shower heads, that can reach to the machine and you can use them instead of the funnel, for me that seems like a safer option - in this particular model, the spinner has a water inlet, so you can spin and rinse at the same time. It saves you water and it’s more efficient. Not if you want to use fabric softener though, but I never use it because my detergent has a nice lavander fragrance. Spin your clothes for 2-3 minutes, open the water inlet to the spinner, rinse, spin, repeat as much as you want.
Thank you, that make sense, but with the shower head part, I cannot change the shower head due to the fact I live an apartment and can’t make any adjustments for the shower head part or that would be perfect option and easier honestly. But since I can’t make any modifications I figured to show what I came up with that may work for others as well. Yeeess, i have definitely changed the way I have done my clothes with this machine after using it for a while now, so using the fabric softener is nice to!! My clothes always smell nice and fragrant using that! But yeah, anyways lol thank you so much for your feedback(:
@@neoshazavala I praise your creativity. I'm from Europe and even though this type of shower head is available here, it's mostly in public showers (gym, swimming pool, public toilets with showers available, campgrounds), so people have this feeling like they don't belong to your home. Our showers are handheld by default, which helps a lot when using a twin tub washer or filling up the bucket for mopping the floor. And for the rinse cycle, I would still suggest you spinning out the water used for washing before you actually start rinsing. The automats do this by default. It still saves you a lot of water because you don't have to fill up the tub so many times to rinse out all the suds, the spinner will remove them before even starting to rinse.
Oh I see what you’re saying, okay so it’s like the shower head you guys use in Europe is more known for not home areas, and you guys have the detachable shower heads in all for your homes right? That’s actually pretty cool to know! Oh yes I actually do that now! I am still working on my updated video to show how I’ve changed up ever since getting this machine. But yes, I put my clothes in the spin cycle to remove all the dirty water first now instead of how I did it before. It has definitely helped save more time, water, and money! Thank you so much !! (:
@@neoshazavala if you think about it, these American type shower heads are simple and cheap, so it makes sense to use them in mass. And I think the detachable showers became so normal for homes because most homes before the 50's had no bathrooms. When bathrooms became the norm, thanks to the rebuilding after the war, detached showers were used, because of the same reason. This way you could have the same watwr outlet with a large tap for both the sink, the bathtub and with the detached shower on a hose, even the shower could be connected to the same outlet, so it was a significantly cheaper. And when we finally didn't need to save money and materials, it was what we all were used to, so it sticks around. Here you see what I mean:www.google.com/search?q=k%C3%A1d+mosd%C3%B3+csaptelep+zuhannyal&oq=k&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j46i273j69i59l2j69i60.5627j0j9&client=ms-android-huawei-rev1&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#imgrc=CKHMEIvFPfJzhM
OH okay I see what you're saying now even more!! Those sinks are built pretty handy then! It's way nice and flexible if you want to make certain adjustments for certain jobs to make use with it more.
So glad I found your video. I have the same exact washer and I too keep mine in the bathtub when I run mine. I tie my electric plug up high to an extension cord on a towel rack so there is no chance of it ever getting in the water. My instructions also say to never use hot water because most of the parts are made of plastic. Might damage them? One thing I have done is tie (rubber band) and old sock to the end of my drain hose to catch all the lint to keep my drain from running slow or getting plugged. I really liked your video. One of the Best :)
Thank you for watching(: I forgot I deities me adding the cold water in as well, I only got me adding the hot water. So my bad on that lol but yes thank you for sharing that to so others know!!(: I also did get that recommendation from a few people in the comments about the sock/nylon for the tube to filter ! I do have my updated video on this machine as well if you would like to check it out as well! ruclips.net/video/m2wOlWb7O5s/видео.html I use a TubShroom to help filter the lint from the tube into the bathtub to help drain but as well as collect the lint while it’s draining (: I appreciate your comment thank you!!
Hi good video 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾I saw a few videos an reviews where customers mentioned the hose not attaching to the sink to fill up washer. Your idea was SMART & INNOVATIVE , it helped me. So when I purchase it that's exactly what I'm going to do. Thank You So Much 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☺️☺️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Never heard of this product before though this is the second video I’m watching from you still watching love enjoyed seeing you talk about this product hope you have a good day
I bought one because of your great video ! I love mine and I use rain water because of the iron in my water ! Love your video and thank you for such a detailed explanation!
Your video is seriously the best on this model ! Thank you for making the time to make this. I ordered mine and it just came in today, I wanted to ask if you know what the second ‘water inlet’ next to the dryer side is for ? I couldn’t find any mention of it in the instructions or comments on anyone else’s video, must serve some purpose but why would someone want to fill the spin dryer with water? Maybe a rinse cycle ? Any thoughts, have you tried using this?
So sorry about the late response! I have a bunch of comments. But, looking through them, answering your question, because using the water inlet for the spin cycle is to help your clothes getting rinsed more as the spin cycle keeps spinning, so definitely utilize that if you want, but that is what it’s for.
After I rinse my clothes to get the soap off, I save the water and put more soap in and wash the next load saving on water. The water is cleaner than you think and so adding more homemade liquid soap and a little Dawn works great. I put mine on a dolly and roll it around close to my walk-in shower, then drop the hose with a knee high stocking on the end to catch the extra lint. Great video by the way. Of course I like mine and also can wash a queen size sheet one at a time in mine too. If and when it breaks down I’ll buy another one cause I like the way I can regulate the water levels. I have an expensive fancy washer and I use this little one most of the time. I only wished I had a clothesline.
I wish I would have done it like this way way before I even made this video lol, but after few months in after my videos on this machine. I started realizing to do just that. Saving the extra water and I use it more for the next load as well. Been doing it like that now ever since. I still need to go and post my part 3 so I can show how I do things differently now. But I do appreciate you saying this on here to for someone to read that this can also help as well! SoThank you and thank you for watching as well(: I did forget to mention I live in my new place and have my own washer and dryer now, so I don’t use the machine at all since I moved. But for the sake of part 3 and having it handy just in case. I will eventually make an updated version of everything I’ve ran into to update y’all on what I’ve done differently since those two videos (:
This machine does what a conventional washing machine does only manually. It does a normal cycle which is wash, spin, rinse, spin. I had the grandparent to these machines. I had a Hoover spinmatic. They are amazing little machines
Great video. Very informative. Possibly the best I've seen so far on portable washing machines. However I do advise against putting anything electrical in a bathtub. Definitely a potential risk of fire/shock hazard and should not be recommended. Especially for those with older tubs and may have (potential) clogs as water can get backed up inside the tub causing damage to the unit and/or electrical shock. Might I suggest just leaving the unit outside the tub but have the drain hose going into the tub for precautionary measures instead. Thank you for the video and please be safe. 🙂
Hey thank you so much for your comment and suggestions. I actually have a part 2 on this machine where I go more in depth and also have a TubShroom to help me with the clogging of the drain. Also I have still been using this in my tub just because it’s an easier option but on part 2 I go in more depth how I make hints work up till this day it’s just fine. But Lol it’s an updated version of this part one video if you’d like to check it out it’s part 2 on my channel Thanks again(:
Thank you for such a detailed video !! I live alone upstairs and currently have to drag ( not literally) my wash to my daughters . No laundry on site After watching several videos ... I'm SOLD !! LIKED & Subscribed!!
That’s a smart idea!! I do have a portable dryer now and made a video on it. So I do use that now, but thank you for the suggestion though! That’s definitely helpful for anyone else to !(:
Great review and funnel hack. What I do after the first wash is to spin for a minute to get all that excess dirty water before rinsing out the detergent/residual dirty residue.
I definitely do my laundry different than I do in the video, that is definitely one of those things I’ve learned over time. I’m still working on my video so I can update everyone on how I do things differently. Thank you for this tip anyway, and thank you for watching (:
Great video! Thank you! --- If you have time, a follow-up video would be interesting (ie: how well it's working after many washes, and after it ages.) Good luck with your channel.
Thank you so much! Not sure if you saw my part 2 on this machine after 6 months of usage. So if you’d like to check that one out as well, I go more in detail (: Thank you so much!! I’m going to be giving you guys another video soon as well(: ruclips.net/video/KUPtuUhJDQ8/видео.html
It is not a dryer it is a mini washing machine and spin. and as a connoisseur of these types of machines they're very good this particular model ,I have myself I'm very pleased with it, it is a 18 pounder love it 🤗
I was new when I made this video, so I just was still learning the terms. But I guess when I’ve been corrected a few times lol, it’s called a spin cycle. Oh yes I agree!! It is a great machine(:
Mine just arrived today and I haven't used it yet. Like you I ordered a Giantex and received a Costway, they are exactly the same thing under a different name from what I can gather. The machine appears from first looks to do washing, spin drying, but not rinsing, of course you would just repeat the washing process adding more water to rinse the clothes. I look forward to using it later.
@@neoshazavala I am quite pleased with it Neosha. That filter was difficult to remove until I got the hang of it, in fact some people have said they can't unclip it at all.
It was like that with me to at first as well, it was like me trying to get used to clipping it in right at that proper angle for it to fit in correctly. But once I got the hang of it it makes sense with how I angle it in each time now(:
I have been reading so many reviews, started watching videos and saw this one was okay watched couple more skipping through them still not interested but I came across your video and I’m certain I want this machine thank you for making this video I didn’t skip You have amazing tips
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate you taking the time for that 🙏🏽😊 I did make an updated video on this machine as well, it’s way more in detail if you’re interested in seeing my video, please feel free to check it out on my channel(: Hope that helps even more in explaining this machine!
It’s more of a machine that needs to be above something for it to drain directly downward. But as shown in my video you can do it that way on a flat surface, But what I didn’t show is that you can also lift the machine sideways and drain the excess water from the drainage tube that way if it’s flat like how it is draining in my video. I hope that makes sense(:
mine just came today! I'm excited to use it. I'm moving this Saturday and will use it within the week. I also ordered the funnel you have based off your video. Thank you 🥰
So glad to see your comments on both my washer and dryer videos(: Thanks for watching! Glad to hear you got them!! So happy I could help!! Let me know how it goes when you use them(: I’d love to hear about it
Sorry, just seeing this. It can be a situation where the machine came in not functioning properly. I’d contact the company you got it from, me amazon just in case you didn’t get it with the same place as me. But anyways, contact them and let them know and get a replacement sent out, let them know what’s going on, and then they should go ahead and have you either drop it off at a location somewhere, or put it back in the box and leave it out on your front door and schedule a time to have them pick up the package at your door. They should knock because they need a signature I believe when picking up the machine. And yeah then you should get your replacement and hopefully that one will work like it should(:
I am getting ready to invest in one of these washers because of covid I don't like using the apartment buildings facilities. My question is you put the washer in the tub, (just as I am going to do), and you drain it in the tub, (just as I plan to do it also), but when the water drains and gets underneath the washer, will it damage the washer from underneath over time?
Well the best way to describe it is in my second video on this machine(: If you check it out I go in detail more with showing the underneath of the washer in my tub while I’m draining water. On my channel as part 2, If you want go ahead and check that out so you can see it better(:
I just inherited one and was petrified of using it until I saw this excellent tutorial! The thing i have to get use to is load size and density. Thanks!
@@neoshazavala just saw part two, wunnerful! Question; my used one needs a good cleaning. Just a wee bit funky. The usual method; ie vinegar, mild soap and water in empty load?
Thank you so much!! I mean I honestly haven’t tried that with this portable machine with the vinegar yet. I just take a rag and clean it with dish soap and rinse with warm/hot water. But I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to try it! I got a comment last week about how your not supposed to put dish type soap in this machine. But I haven’t had any problems with it ever since I got it, so I would double check on the website to be sure. But I wouldn’t see an issue(:
Oh my god girl I love it it’s so cute my husband said it looks like a little toy but it works I put it on my Snapchat and so many of my friends that live in apartments asked me for the info on it and I send it all to them I even did them a little video thank you I got it because of you
Awww I’m glad I helped! It’s a pretty handy little machine!! It does look like a little kids play toy pretend washer or dryer if ya think about it huh?? Lol! I’m glad you like it girl! Thanks for getting back(:
a very thorough review with a million dollar smile. You have very clear, perfect sounding voice (ideal for review, look into teaming up w/ reviewers or start a review channel. You should be compensated for this review, contact this company. Maybe... :-)
Sorry, about that experience. I honestly haven’t been able to find the drainage hose searching online with the company ): I need to figure that out as well, I’m thinking you can find a tube similar at Lowe’s, Home Depot, somewhere. I need one to. Or if you can’t find one maybe if the leak spot isn’t too bad or at a certain angle to fit, I would try and tape or something to hold tight to cover the leaking? And maybe that will help.
Ooohhh this is helpful for me as well! Thank you(: 🙏🏽😩 I’m trying to get a new water inlet hose, the water over time turns the tube yellow): I’ve looked up other ways to clean it to and all, but I’d rather just have a new tube tbh, so thank you!
Hello! Just got mine today and was looking for an instructional video and yours was first to pop up. Thank you! I thought I was doing something wrong, but I do exactly what you’ve shown here. I ran the wash but my spinner doesn’t work at all. I’ve reached out to the manufacturer but it’ll take a few days to hear back. Have you heard of others where the spin cycle doesn’t function?
Of course thanks for watching(: Sorry to hear your machine isn’t operating correctly though. I would definitely ask for a replacement since that one isn’t working on the spin cycle side. I haven’t personally had any issues with it as long as you make sure not to overload your laundry inside that little spinner, because it cannot withstand too much weight or else it knocks on all sides. Have you heard anything back from the manufacturer since?
@@neoshazavala thanks for your reply!Well, they’re allowing me to return it but didn’t offer to replace it. Kind of bummed because I do like the convenience of having this unit instead of having to haul my laundry to the laundromat.
Oh man sorry for the late reply, but also sorry to hear that as well. Thats unfortunate they couldn’t replace it or anything like that. Sorry that experience isn’t the best. I hope you found something that works for you by now. Good luck with everything else moving forward (:
@@86Kera Working on the updated video, sorry it’s taking so long, but as I mentioned to others I’m trying to go in much as detail as I can(; But this machine is working perfect still!! Love it
Again, I loved the funnel idea, however, if I want to use the water from pipe behind the toilet vase on the side, the pipe that is used to flush the toilet. Does it work. I ask because people use this pipehose water to get water for hand bidet.
Thank you! Wish I could do that but I cannot make any changes since it’s an apartment that I do not own, I rent. So unfortunately cannot do that. But I do appreciate the suggestion! That could help someone else out for sure!(:
You helped me so much! I wasn't sure how I was going to work it all out. There you were with everything I needed to know! Thank you! BTW you mentioned the discoloration around your eye, have considered microcurrent? It can't be used in the area directly below the eye but around the surrounding areas. It helps increase circulation.
Aww thank you for your other previous comments btw! I’m happy I could help ya(: And thank you for helping me! I will check that microcurrent out I’ve never heard of that before!! So thank you for that as well(:
hey, mine isnt working, i followed your instructions to a tee and all I can hear is the sound of the motor . The troubleshoot on the site says I need to remove the base and install the belt which I assume is the steel zip cord type thing that it came with. how and where do I install it?
My best thing to say here is if you followed my video and it’s having a whole other different experience, it must be the machine built funky, or something just going wrong with it. Unfortunately sometimes that can happen. But I wish I could be more help, I apologize, but truly I haven’t ran into that issue where I’ve had to worry about that situation, so I haven’t taken the machine apart or really know what to do with the belt and what not.
Not so much large blankets/materials. If it seems to big/heavy for the machine, it is. It’s great for smaller loads and all but heavier materials like this, I wouldn’t risk(;
@@neoshazavala So it won't fit just 1 and still have Space? Because I may have to get one abit bigger. I just want to wash 1 comforter or 1 pillow at a time.
Sorry just seeing this! I really wouldn’t recommend anything big like comforters, this machine is too small. But it is great for a certain amount of materials when it comes to a load of laundry or towels or something in that category. But anything like bigger blankets and depending on material and how much water weight it carries based of your judgment in person, is not recommended. Hope that helps (:
Thank you so much for your step by step instructions. I ordered one after watching your video. I definitely suggest adding affiliated links to the products do we can find the right stuff while you can get something in return. For those who are wondering about the funnel size. The hose is about 1" wide so you should buy a funnel that has a narrow tip smaller than 1". I ended up buying a flowtool diesel funnel that was similar to the video.
Hey thank you so much!! I really appreciate that. I’d like to sell with Amazon, but being honest, I gotta work on getting approved for a credit card that is required to sell with Amazon and all. So it will be some time until then. But I’m just happy to share for free until then anyways. It helps get the word out and can still help people at the same time until I’m able to do that. But it’s definitely worth making the videos to show people how great they are! I appreciate you!!🙏🏽😊

Absolutely!!😊
Oh yes! It’s definitely worth it! I just got one a few days ago, the same size, but the Zeny model! And your funnel hack is really cool! But I bought a Rinseroo to fill it from the shower, and I rinse thru the water inlet on the spinner side with the Rinseroo. It eliminates the need to rinse in the wash tub. I invite everyone to see how I use the Rinseroo in my brief video. /ruclips.net/video/p4-_4RFRcnA/видео.html.
I just tried mine for the first time and I love it! I spun the dirty wash water out with the spinner and then poured some clean water on top of that and spun it again (2 times total for the rinsing on the spin side). That spin-rinse process got so much soap out that when I went to do a rinse cycle in the wash side, it almost didn't need it because my clothes were almost all clean. Hope that tip helps you! I think your machine might even have a water hose hook-up on the spin side, as well as the wash side (so you could rinse as you spin, like a real washing machine does at one point in the cycle). If only I had a way to hook up the hose on my spin side, I would do that instead of pouring water into it. My machine instructions actually mentioned about letting the water run for 20-30 seconds as it spins (to rinse it). The brand is GloBest, in case anyone is wondering. They didn't mention rinsing it again in the wash tub, so maybe they think that spin rinsing is enough (?). Does anyone find that spin-rinsing is enough by itself?
Thank you so much(: Thanks for sharing your ideas as well!! It nice to help anyone who may be interested in yours to😊
I purchased my 2nd machine 26lb capacity, larger than I expected which I wanted. But this is so light even this 70yo man can lift it into the tub. Now I can wash almost everything except comforters, in my own home, at my convenience.
I have made some adjustments to the process as I have learned from other YT videos.
LAUNDRY BAGS: To avoid twisting the clothes during the wash/rinse cycle, I use laundry bags purchased from Dollarama & DollarTree. These work great!! Much cheaper than Amazon sellers.
LINT ISSUES: Also I have concerns about all the lint going down the drain, so I attached a knee-high nylon stocking at the end of the drain hose. Amazed at how much lint came off my flannel shirts/fleece jackets, which would end up plugging up the pipes in this old house. Unfortunately the drain hose is not long enough to reach my toilet which is too far away.
I do have a part two on this machine. I use a TubShroom for the lint issues going down the drain. Feel free to check it out if you’d like. But thank you so much for sharing your ideas to! This helps a lot🙏🏽☺️
I just purchased my 2nd twin tub washing machine. I loved my 1st one so much that I had no reservations on buying one again . However this time I upgraded to a larger capacity my 1st washer washed around 12 lbs spun 6 lbs this time I got one with a 18lb wash capacity and 10 lb spin capacity! Lol reason is I like to be able to wash sheets and blankets and u really need that xstra poundage for that job lol what is like to share with others is these washers wash a lot more clothes than u see most reviewers washing and don't be afraid that if ur a plus size person these washers aren't built for ur size. I've literally seen reviews where they said for smaller people's clothes . I'd recommend these twin tubs to anyone who likes to wash at home and is ok with a little interaction. I saw a review where the lady got mad the clothes were wet after draining the wash tub and that she was expected to spin the water out in the spinner she thought it was like a reg washer that did the whole thing like dah! Did she read sor check it out before hand lol
It’s such a great machine! But I love this story, so thank you for sharing(: It helps because I never thought of that until you brought it up. When it comes to having a bigger machine for blankets and more for plus size people as well makes more sense to get a machine with more washing/weight capacity. But lol yes I get that to, like yes it’s a bit more work to work with this machine to spin your clothes but hey it’s better than nothing. And there is always gonna be pros and cons to every machine. But truly I’m just grateful not to not have anything period. And getting used to having to do it it becomes a habit overtime so I really don’t mind ya know? Haha
Update to the update...
The washer is working out fine, in fact I'm using it right now. It has saved time and money over the past few months. Later we will be getting a dryer similar to your other video. For my small apartment, the washer has been a godsend.
Hoping all is well and best,
Stephen
Hey thank you so much, glad to hear everything is working out for you as well! Did you ever get the dryer? If so how’s that going for you as well?(:
So far this is the best video I've seen on this topic. Thank you!
Thank you so much!! (:
I had something similar way back in the 70s made by Maytag, Loved it. It was all metal construction and also had a drain pump. I used it for several years then gave it to my inlaws after I married their daughter
That’s awesome. Yeah these machines or just the idea in general is a good one for sure(:
I loved the step by step instructions. The instructions that came with the machine was not helpful. Thank you for posting this. Well done.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!😊🙏🏽
They're all made in the same place and stamped with different company names. I bought one of them yesterday on Amazon and did a little online digging, because they all look the same. I pretty much knew it anyway because companies have been doing this for decades...have their items made in one factory and slap their name on it. My apartment is basically an Efficiency Plus, meaning one extra bedroom. With the cost of using the laundromats here, the washer will pay for itself in a couple months. This video helped a lot. I'll be saving this one for referral. Thanks!
Stephen
Thanks for clarifying on the name thing. I was confused when I first got this machine like wait I ordered Giantex but it says costway lol. But yeah anyway thank you for watching, glad I could help☺️
@@neoshazavala What I ordered is a Habutway (actual spelling) and will be arriving sometime soon today. Who knows what I'll actually get though. Giantex, Costway, Habutway...all the same machine/manufacturer. Spent yesterday removing the old over the toilet shelf and matching small rack. Put together a new over the toilet cabinet and told my daughter that what the cabinet needs is fifteen more packages of hardware to put the thing together. (Sarcasm). Lol. Plenty of room for the washer now in the bathroom. If it arrives and isn't the same brand name, I'll let you know. It's just funny that they did that to you. They probably ran out of the one you ordered and said, "They're all the same. We'll just send her this one instead." Truth, but still a little odd when thought about. In the 60s and 70s, Solengen (sic) Germany hadvs factory that made everything from cutlery to shovels and hammers with their stamp on it. Companies all put their names on them and sold them as their own, so it's nothing really new. I'll be back to rewatch your videos soon, most likely later today, just in case I missed something. Hope you had a nice Christmas and hope it continues into New Year's and the New Year itself. Thanks for the information and the videos. They help a lot.
Stephen
Hey I apologize!! I am so late in responding to your message. I’m finding myself learning to find old comments to reply to, and found this gem! Anyhow it is odd I was so confused with this whole name thing, costway, Giantex, whichever haha lol. But did you end up with the same brand machine as mine or a different one? And how’s been your experience after all this time?! See back then seems a bit more understanding when companies would label there own things and kept it as that. But with this situation having the same item with different brand/model names got me messed all the way up 🤣 But anyway thank you so much for your kind words! I’m so happy I could also help you to(: I hope you’ve had a great year and holidays and all the future ones to come as well(:
I just got one of these machines and found your video. Even with my glasses, I couldn't read the manual. Thank you for such a simple yet detailed video and the hacks will come in handy! Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching!
I've watched a lot of commentary on many of these machines and I just want to say I loved your version the best. You did a beautiful job especially at the beginning showing the undertone of the machine I've not seen anybody do that yet and just your way of explaining things was beautiful.... I wasn't sure about buying this machine- now thanks to you... I will. Sincerely Shawn Titus in Montreal Quebec Canada. Have a great day. 💕💕💕
Hey, thank you so much! I truly appreciate you saying this! I’m happy to hear I helped!😊 You have a great day and again thank you so much(:
Hello dear, Shawn here from Montreal Quebec Canada. As I mentioned to you in the previous comment, I said thanks to you I would buy that machine? Well I did, your information gave me a head start and how to use it and I really appreciate it! And you're absolutely right it's a great machine, so thanks again. Shawn.🎃🎃💕
Glad I helped, thank you!
Me too! I just bought one and I'm inlove with it! The water option in the spin cycle is amazing. As well!
Thank you. Thank you. Because of you, I finally learned how to take out the lint trap! I learned from another video to rubber band a knee-high nylon to the end of the hose that drains the water out. After using the washer, I let the nylon dry out and then scrape out the lint. Works like a charm. Love my washer!
Of course(: So happy I could help you!!
Yes I’ve had some others mention that nylon idea as well, which is a great idea. I have a part 2 on this machine if you wanna check that out feel free. I go over more in depth but I have a TubShroom which has been helping me with filtering and making sure hairs don’t get stuck in my drain. Still works pretty good for me today(:
I bought this and the panda dryer 3.5 , very pleased with both:
I use buckets only I have one bucket to fill it up ,
I have one that stays beside it to for the draining .
I never use my bathroom only to dump my water, it stays in one area.
The Panda dryer hold 13 lbs. Your video is 👏 thank you! Love the Dawn soap idea!!!
Oh nice!! That’s a great idea💡 👍🏽 Thank you so much !😊 🙏🏽
Thank you SOOOOOO much for making this video. I have been reading review after review for every portable machine out there and was feeling SUPER overwhelmed. Getting to see this thing in action was incredibly helpful!
Thank you!! I truly appreciate that🙏🏽 I’m happy I could help!!
Love your channel. You were the only one who gave a thorough demonstration on how to use it, turn the knobs (which no one else showed) and great hacks. Thanks a lot. I also subscribed. Will be sharing your video!🙂👍🏾
Thank you so much, I appreciate that!🙏🏽😊
You, by far, have the best review. Very thorough
Thank you so much, I appreciate that ☺️🙏🏽
Thank you!!! Just got back from Home Depot where they couldn’t fit the tube to my sink. The funnel trick literally saved me!!!
Of course, happy to help!! Thank you for watching 🙏🏽☺️
This type of machine has been very popular here in the gulf/middle art as much as I can remember since I grew up in the 80s. I am surprised it’s becoming popular in the USA now.
We are now veering toward fully automatic washers but lots of house hold still rely on this machine especially if they live in old houses/apartments that didn’t have the facility for the new washers
Yes, once I came across using this, it has been extremely helpful. It’s such a great source for those who don’t have washer/Dryer hookups, traveling, and all! So definitely had to share my experiences with this machine, and shockingly my videos have taken off on this machine. So happy it could help many others!(:
@Neosha Zavala HOW DID I NOT KNOW OF THIS!? I could've used this years ago. Thanks for the walk through. You're the best!! : )
Thank you so much! I’m happy I could help you to ☺️🙏🏽
Thank you, that was awesome! I just got mine today (Amazon said by Feb 4th so that was a nice surprise) and while I’ve seen a few videos yours was definitely fantastic. I love the funnel idea! The only real negative for me is that my drain and faucets are on the wrong side of the bathtub. I had the machine facing away from me when I tried it today because I wanted the drainpipe to actually reach into the drain. Since you turned yours on it’s side so we could see the bottom, it actually looks like I might just be able to unsnap the pipe and bring it out the other side. Thanks for the video!!😊
Saw your previous comment on my other video to, thank you so much !! Yes I’m glad I showed the under side so people like you get ideas and different ones I could also learn from so thank you, and thank you for your feedback!! Happy I could help ya to☺️
@@neoshazavala Thanks! The drainage pipe switch to the other side just fine (even has the handy spot to clip it up) and I even went to Walmart last night and got the drying rack. Let the laundry games begin!
Love it! Lol yes let the laundry games begin! 😆
Btw.. Sorry just seeing your reply!
You are so awesome making this video. I just got one for my basically off-grid cabin that has power from stations I built and now seeing how you did this has given me ideas on how to make mine work. Have a great day!
Thank you! I appreciate it, thanks for watching, that’s really great to hear! Happy I could help (:
LOVE your little creative hack to fill the washer from the shower head! Thanks for taking the time for making this video! Me and my wife are getting one of these llittle machines!
Thank you!! Yay I’m happy I could help with y’all deciding to get it!! It’s definitely been a life saver still till this day for me !(:
I have that machine, I’ve been using it for a long time now. I LOVE IT! It washes wonderfully well!
It is worth it in my opinion. It is true that every step must be done by hand, but it’s way better than hauling clothes to the laundromat. Just stay on top of it or your laundry could take an entire day doing mini loads that this requires.
Absolutely right, so worth it and it works better than using nothing completely if some people would really deeply think about it. Gratitude🙏🏽
thank you SO SO much for this video!!! I'm a visual learner, so i was struggling HARD with the manual until i came across your video! kudos!
Thank you so much!! I’m happy this video helped you as well🙏🏽☺️
I purchased the Kuppet machine in July. It has a drain pump so I can use the machine in the kitchen and drain up into the sink but otherwise it is the same machine. I spin the clothes between the wash and the rinse to get as much soap put of the clothes as possible. I love my machine and wish I had bought it 2 years ago! Great video! ☺
Ohhh that’s helpful!! Thank you for sharing your experience as well!
Thank you so much 😊
The best video I've seen on this portable twin tub washer, and I've watched many. This video is so helpful. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much!(:
I've recently purchased a portable washer. I love it! I've watched many videos on RUclips about them. Yours is the best! Thank you for speaking calmly clearly, and pleasantly. I love your tips on your set up. For sure, I'm going to use them. I thought about using the tub. My tub drains too slowly and water may rise above the feet. Just because of where the chord outlet is, prolly not a great 💡. I've been looking through thrift stores for a small table to sit by the tub. I also purchased an electrical water pump syphon to drain it more quickly. My drain is kinda slow. Not sure if I'll keep the edition. I like your simple set up best. I'm definitely using a funnel for the intake hose. Thanks again!
Hey thank you so much! I really appreciate that(: I’m happy I helped! It’s always good to try and find new things you can do to make life a bit easier for sure! I wish you the best!!
If your drain is slow, it should work properly if u snake the drain. Its probably got tons of hair in the pipe.
The only video that went into detail, everyone else was avoiding
Thank you so much! I tried my best 🙏🏽
Great thorough review. I’m looking to determine if I’ll need to buy one of these and to help with my decision I needed to see a step by step video like you provided. It gave me the practical information I needed, so thanks 🙏🏽. Those things are a marvel.
Thank you so much! I appreciate🙏🏽 if it helps add anything if you haven’t seen part two, it’s on my channel as part two of this same machine. I made that video to go more better in detail that I missed in this first video. Please feel free if that video also helps you out I’d suggest to watch part two🙏🏽☺️
I just bought one and the directions were vague hard and hard to understand. Then I found you lol! Thank You so much! 🤙✌
Hey thank you so much 😊 I appreciate your feedback! I’m always happy to help!
Just washed a load of clothes and did the spin came out almost dry great review!!!!
Oh that’s so good!!(: Thank you so much🙏🏽 😊
Hey! How is the noise level of the machine? Would it be suitable for quieter apartments?
Sorry, late response just going through comments, and I guess I’ve missed a few, but to answer your question. It’s really not the most quiet machine when running wash and spin, so if you were to do a load, I’d make sure your neighbors are cool, your lease doesn’t have anything saying you can’t have one, and to make sure that you use the machine at appropriate hours throughout the day where you feel it wouldn’t be an interruption for others around you(: Hope that helps!
@@neoshazavala ¬ Thanks for the response! I recently acquired a Danby portable washing machine with a pump and spin cycle. It's actually very quiet! I spent 200 on a used model and it works very well. Thank you for your vidz :)
Oh that is good to hear you got one that works quietly, that is extremely helpful I bet! Glad I could help in some way(:
Just my two cents (I grew up using these machines, so I know how to use these twin tub models quite well):
- You can actually reuse the water. Wash the less soiled clothes first and the more soiled ones last. The less soiled ones can be done in 3 minutes, the more soiled ones might need a full 15 minutes cycle, but you can manage to wash a lot more than just one load in one water. Don’t worry that it looks dirty, a lot of it is just the color leakage of the clothes.
- you can get those hand held shower heads, that can reach to the machine and you can use them instead of the funnel, for me that seems like a safer option
- in this particular model, the spinner has a water inlet, so you can spin and rinse at the same time. It saves you water and it’s more efficient. Not if you want to use fabric softener though, but I never use it because my detergent has a nice lavander fragrance. Spin your clothes for 2-3 minutes, open the water inlet to the spinner, rinse, spin, repeat as much as you want.
Thank you, that make sense, but with the shower head part, I cannot change the shower head due to the fact I live an apartment and can’t make any adjustments for the shower head part or that would be perfect option and easier honestly. But since I can’t make any modifications I figured to show what I came up with that may work for others as well.
Yeeess, i have definitely changed the way I have done my clothes with this machine after using it for a while now, so using the fabric softener is nice to!! My clothes always smell nice and fragrant using that! But yeah, anyways lol thank you so much for your feedback(:
@@neoshazavala I praise your creativity. I'm from Europe and even though this type of shower head is available here, it's mostly in public showers (gym, swimming pool, public toilets with showers available, campgrounds), so people have this feeling like they don't belong to your home. Our showers are handheld by default, which helps a lot when using a twin tub washer or filling up the bucket for mopping the floor.
And for the rinse cycle, I would still suggest you spinning out the water used for washing before you actually start rinsing. The automats do this by default. It still saves you a lot of water because you don't have to fill up the tub so many times to rinse out all the suds, the spinner will remove them before even starting to rinse.
Oh I see what you’re saying, okay so it’s like the shower head you guys use in Europe is more known for not home areas, and you guys have the detachable shower heads in all for your homes right? That’s actually pretty cool to know!
Oh yes I actually do that now! I am still working on my updated video to show how I’ve changed up ever since getting this machine. But yes, I put my clothes in the spin cycle to remove all the dirty water first now instead of how I did it before. It has definitely helped save more time, water, and money!
Thank you so much !! (:
@@neoshazavala if you think about it, these American type shower heads are simple and cheap, so it makes sense to use them in mass. And I think the detachable showers became so normal for homes because most homes before the 50's had no bathrooms. When bathrooms became the norm, thanks to the rebuilding after the war, detached showers were used, because of the same reason. This way you could have the same watwr outlet with a large tap for both the sink, the bathtub and with the detached shower on a hose, even the shower could be connected to the same outlet, so it was a significantly cheaper. And when we finally didn't need to save money and materials, it was what we all were used to, so it sticks around.
Here you see what I mean:www.google.com/search?q=k%C3%A1d+mosd%C3%B3+csaptelep+zuhannyal&oq=k&aqs=chrome.2.69i57j46i273j69i59l2j69i60.5627j0j9&client=ms-android-huawei-rev1&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#imgrc=CKHMEIvFPfJzhM
OH okay I see what you're saying now even more!! Those sinks are built pretty handy then! It's way nice and flexible if you want to make certain adjustments for certain jobs to make use with it more.
That funnel hack is amazing!!!
Thank you!! It’s helped a bunch(:
I love the hack you made to put the water in the machine.
Thank you(:
So glad I found your video. I have the same exact washer and I too keep mine in the bathtub when I run mine. I tie my electric plug up high to an extension cord on a towel rack so there is no chance of it ever getting in the water. My instructions also say to never use hot water because most of the parts are made of plastic. Might damage them? One thing I have done is tie (rubber band) and old sock to the end of my drain hose to catch all the lint to keep my drain from running slow or getting plugged. I really liked your video. One of the Best :)
Thank you for watching(: I forgot I deities me adding the cold water in as well, I only got me adding the hot water. So my bad on that lol but yes thank you for sharing that to so others know!!(: I also did get that recommendation from a few people in the comments about the sock/nylon for the tube to filter !
I do have my updated video on this machine as well if you would like to check it out as well!
ruclips.net/video/m2wOlWb7O5s/видео.html
I use a TubShroom to help filter the lint from the tube into the bathtub to help drain but as well as collect the lint while it’s draining (:
I appreciate your comment thank you!!
I have a washer similar to this and I love it so much. It has so much power and gets the clothes really well for a portable machine 😊
Right these little machines really pack a punch for how much they really can do! Happy to hear you love it to(:
Hi good video 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾I saw a few videos an reviews where customers mentioned the hose not attaching to the sink to fill up washer. Your idea was SMART & INNOVATIVE , it helped me. So when I purchase it that's exactly what I'm going to do. Thank You So Much 💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☺️☺️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Of course, thank you, I appreciate it!! 🙏🏽😊 I’m happy to hear I helped(:
That funnel trick was the best! Thank you! Thank you! I’m ordering my machine tomorrow.
Of course, Thank you!(: Yay!! I hope you like it!
Best hack I’ve seen yet
Thank you so much!(:
Never heard of this product before though this is the second video I’m watching from you still watching love enjoyed seeing you talk about this product hope you have a good day
Thank you so much! I’m happy to hear you’re enjoying them😊💕
I bought one because of your great video ! I love mine and I use rain water because of the iron in my water ! Love your video and thank you for such a detailed explanation!
Thank you so much!! (: I really appreciate your feedback 🙏🏽
Your video is seriously the best on this model ! Thank you for making the time to make this. I ordered mine and it just came in today, I wanted to ask if you know what the second ‘water inlet’ next to the dryer side is for ? I couldn’t find any mention of it in the instructions or comments on anyone else’s video, must serve some purpose but why would someone want to fill the spin dryer with water? Maybe a rinse cycle ? Any thoughts, have you tried using this?
So sorry about the late response! I have a bunch of comments. But, looking through them, answering your question, because using the water inlet for the spin cycle is to help your clothes getting rinsed more as the spin cycle keeps spinning, so definitely utilize that if you want, but that is what it’s for.
totally agree, not a dead moment , always engaging, informative, ... better than the "praise" alike videos from the producer ...
You are a smart cookie... Thanks for the ingenious tip to connect to the showerhead. 😊
Thank you so much!! I’m happy that helped😊🙏🏽
I was wondering how am I going to hook this up to a water source. The funnel idea never crossed my mind. Smart! Thanks again.
Hey, thank you so much for watching, glad I could help you as well!(:
After I rinse my clothes to get the soap off, I save the water and put more soap in and wash the next load saving on water. The water is cleaner than you think and so adding more homemade liquid soap and a little Dawn works great. I put mine on a dolly and roll it around close to my walk-in shower, then drop the hose with a knee high stocking on the end to catch the extra lint. Great video by the way. Of course I like mine and also can wash a queen size sheet one at a time in mine too. If and when it breaks down I’ll buy another one cause I like the way I can regulate the water levels. I have an expensive fancy washer and I use this little one most of the time. I only wished I had a clothesline.
I wish I would have done it like this way way before I even made this video lol, but after few months in after my videos on this machine. I started realizing to do just that. Saving the extra water and I use it more for the next load as well. Been doing it like that now ever since. I still need to go and post my part 3 so I can show how I do things differently now. But I do appreciate you saying this on here to for someone to read that this can also help as well! SoThank you and thank you for watching as well(:
I did forget to mention I live in my new place and have my own washer and dryer now, so I don’t use the machine at all since I moved. But for the sake of part 3 and having it handy just in case. I will eventually make an updated version of everything I’ve ran into to update y’all on what I’ve done differently since those two videos (:
This machine does what a conventional washing machine does only manually. It does a normal cycle which is wash, spin, rinse, spin. I had the grandparent to these machines. I had a Hoover spinmatic. They are amazing little machines
That’s awesome!! These machines are most definitely beneficial for those who need somethin like this(:
Thank you so much. You gave me some really amazing tips on how to use this little guy. I really appreciate it.
Hey thanks for the feedback(: I’m happy I could help you to!
Great video. Very informative. Possibly the best I've seen so far on portable washing machines. However I do advise against putting anything electrical in a bathtub. Definitely a potential risk of fire/shock hazard and should not be recommended. Especially for those with older tubs and may have (potential) clogs as water can get backed up inside the tub causing damage to the unit and/or electrical shock. Might I suggest just leaving the unit outside the tub but have the drain hose going into the tub for precautionary measures instead. Thank you for the video and please be safe. 🙂
Hey thank you so much for your comment and suggestions. I actually have a part 2 on this machine where I go more in depth and also have a TubShroom to help me with the clogging of the drain. Also I have still been using this in my tub just because it’s an easier option but on part 2 I go in more depth how I make hints work up till this day it’s just fine. But Lol it’s an updated version of this part one video if you’d like to check it out it’s part 2 on my channel
Thanks again(:
That funnel is actually pretty brilliant:) I'm gonna go get one now ❤
Thank you!(:
finally a good vid showing the extension cord
Thank you!! (:
Exactly cause i definitely forgot i have the same one so i pulled it out so thx for this video 💯💞
Thank you!! Of course🙏🏽☺️
Just got one of these ! This video was incredibly helpful and I didn’t know about the dawn soap! Definitely trying that
Thank you! I’m happy I could help😊
Thank you for such a detailed video !!
I live alone upstairs and currently have to drag ( not literally) my wash to my daughters . No laundry on site
After watching several videos ... I'm SOLD !! LIKED & Subscribed!!
Thank you so much!! I just saw your other comment on my updated video as well! Glad you enjoyed them both and getting the machine!!
You think it's any good? Did you get it?
I brought my from Walmart a year ago I love it it's very convenient for me 😊
Oh nice, yeah It’s the best! (:
I have one of those white drying racks,put it over my ELECTRIC baseboard heater,cloths like socks underwear ect drys in minutes.
That’s a smart idea!! I do have a portable dryer now and made a video on it. So I do use that now, but thank you for the suggestion though! That’s definitely helpful for anyone else to !(:
This is the best water hack I've seen thus far 🥰
Thank you!!😊
Thank you so much Neo! You really helped me. I purchased the Costway washer and glad I did because of your excellent review! Very good job! 👍🏽
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it(: I’m happy I helped😊
I just went to Menards and found a hose that fit my Apt size washer.
Great review and funnel hack.
What I do after the first wash is to spin for a minute to get all that excess dirty water before rinsing out the detergent/residual dirty residue.
I definitely do my laundry different than I do in the video, that is definitely one of those things I’ve learned over time. I’m still working on my video so I can update everyone on how I do things differently.
Thank you for this tip anyway, and thank you for watching (:
By far the best video for a portable washing machine out there! Thank you
Thank you so much!!(:
Great video! Thank you! --- If you have time, a follow-up video would be interesting (ie: how well it's working after many washes, and after it ages.) Good luck with your channel.
Thank you so much! Not sure if you saw my part 2 on this machine after 6 months of usage. So if you’d like to check that one out as well, I go more in detail (: Thank you so much!! I’m going to be giving you guys another video soon as well(:

@@neoshazavala I'll look for it! Thanks! 💖
@@awalden Of course thank you!
Thanks! I just bought one of these. I am so excited. I too, live in an apartment.
Of course!!(: they’re so helpful
I really appreciate this tutorial. Liked and subbed.
Thank you so much for watching!(: I appreciate it
Best review ever!!! Love the funnel invention 😂
Thank you so much!! lol I appreciate you 🙏🏽☺️
What a clever hack to attach it to your shower head! Thanks!
Hey, of course, thank you for the feedback!(:
THANK YOU for this great tutorial! It gives me some great tips since I have the same machine.
Thank you! 😊 I’m happy I helped!!
It is not a dryer it is a mini washing machine and spin. and as a connoisseur of these types of machines they're very good this particular model ,I have myself I'm very pleased with it, it is a 18 pounder love it
🤗
I was new when I made this video, so I just was still learning the terms. But I guess when I’ve been corrected a few times lol, it’s called a spin cycle. Oh yes I agree!! It is a great machine(:
Thank you for your review, I purchased one because of it, best buy I have ever made.
Thank you! I’m really happy I helped😊
Me TOO!
You are going to going somewhere here.... Your quality is so good. Nice energy.
I appreciate that!! Thank you so much 😩🙏🏽
Great video! Thank you young lady. The best video on these washers and I’ve watched plenty!
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that🥺🙏🏽
Mine just arrived today and I haven't used it yet. Like you I ordered a Giantex and received a Costway, they are exactly the same thing under a different name from what I can gather. The machine appears from first looks to do washing, spin drying, but not rinsing, of course you would just repeat the washing process adding more water to rinse the clothes. I look forward to using it later.
Hope you like it just as much as I do best luck with everything (:
@@neoshazavala I am quite pleased with it Neosha. That filter was difficult to remove until I got the hang of it, in fact some people have said they can't unclip it at all.
It was like that with me to at first as well, it was like me trying to get used to clipping it in right at that proper angle for it to fit in correctly. But once I got the hang of it it makes sense with how I angle it in each time now(:
I have been reading so many reviews, started watching videos and saw this one was okay watched couple more skipping through them still not interested but I came across your video and I’m certain I want this machine thank you for making this video I didn’t skip You have amazing tips
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate you taking the time for that 🙏🏽😊 I did make an updated video on this machine as well, it’s way more in detail if you’re interested in seeing my video, please feel free to check it out on my channel(: Hope that helps even more in explaining this machine!
Can I drain into a bucket? and do I need to sit it up higher
It’s more of a machine that needs to be above something for it to drain directly downward. But as shown in my video you can do it that way on a flat surface, But what I didn’t show is that you can also lift the machine sideways and drain the excess water from the drainage tube that way if it’s flat like how it is draining in my video. I hope that makes sense(:
Thanks so much for making it easy for us to follow the instructions.Good job
Thanks you for watching as well!🙏🏽
mine just came today!
I'm excited to use it.
I'm moving this Saturday and will use it within the week. I also ordered the funnel you have based off your video.
Thank you 🥰
So glad to see your comments on both my washer and dryer videos(: Thanks for watching!
Glad to hear you got them!! So happy I could help!! Let me know how it goes when you use them(: I’d love to hear about it
Thank you very much. You're a good presenter. This taught me alot about the machine.
Thank you so much!! I truly appreciate that😊🙏🏽
Great idea hun for the funnel over the shower head....so cool!
Thank you! This definitely helps a lot; that’s for sure!
@@neoshazavala I just got mine today, I did 1 shirt and 1 pant and it's not working anymore!
Sorry, just seeing this. It can be a situation where the machine came in not functioning properly. I’d contact the company you got it from, me amazon just in case you didn’t get it with the same place as me. But anyways, contact them and let them know and get a replacement sent out, let them know what’s going on, and then they should go ahead and have you either drop it off at a location somewhere, or put it back in the box and leave it out on your front door and schedule a time to have them pick up the package at your door. They should knock because they need a signature I believe when picking up the machine. And yeah then you should get your replacement and hopefully that one will work like it should(:
Best video on this brand so far!!!!
Hey thank you so much!!🙏🏽😁
Thanks for the info. I’m looking into getting one myself, this video helped!
Glad I helped!! Of course(:
I liked the idea of the funel on the shower. I am concerned about the drain water hose, too short. I want to put up in my sink in the kitchen
I am getting ready to invest in one of these washers because of covid I don't like using the apartment buildings facilities. My question is you put the washer in the tub, (just as I am going to do), and you drain it in the tub, (just as I plan to do it also), but when the water drains and gets underneath the washer, will it damage the washer from underneath over time?
Well the best way to describe it is in my second video on this machine(: If you check it out I go in detail more with showing the underneath of the washer in my tub while I’m draining water. On my channel as part 2, If you want go ahead and check that out so you can see it better(:
@@neoshazavala Thank you so much for replying. I just watched the part 2 video and it totally answered all my questions. Again, thank you very much.
Of course, thanks for watching(:
I just inherited one and was petrified of using it until I saw this excellent tutorial! The thing i have to get use to is load size and density. Thanks!
Thank you !! I’m glad I could help(:
@@neoshazavala just saw part two, wunnerful! Question; my used one needs a good cleaning. Just a wee bit funky. The usual method; ie vinegar, mild soap and water in empty load?
Thank you so much!! I mean I honestly haven’t tried that with this portable machine with the vinegar yet. I just take a rag and clean it with dish soap and rinse with warm/hot water. But I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to try it! I got a comment last week about how your not supposed to put dish type soap in this machine. But I haven’t had any problems with it ever since I got it, so I would double check on the website to be sure. But I wouldn’t see an issue(:
I got one of these just because of your video you convinced me I get mine in a couple of days
Who hoo ! Glad I helped(: let me know how you like it!
Oh my god girl I love it it’s so cute my husband said it looks like a little toy but it works I put it on my Snapchat and so many of my friends that live in apartments asked me for the info on it and I send it all to them I even did them a little video thank you I got it because of you
Awww I’m glad I helped! It’s a pretty handy little machine!! It does look like a little kids play toy pretend washer or dryer if ya think about it huh?? Lol! I’m glad you like it girl! Thanks for getting back(:
This is the best instructional video I've seen including the awesome hacks! 😊
Thank you so much!!🙏🏽😊
A very good demonstration. A very handy thing to have if your full size Automatic Washer should break down and you have to wait for an Engineer.
Thank you! Yes I agree
a very thorough review with a million dollar smile. You have very clear, perfect sounding voice (ideal for review, look into teaming up w/ reviewers or start a review channel. You should be compensated for this review, contact this company. Maybe... :-)
Thank you so so much!!! That’s a really nice comment! Just made my day thank you!(:
Best overview/review I've seen yet. Thank you very much for showing the bottom of it! Liked and Sub'd. Cheers!
Thank you so much!!🙏🏽😊
Hello, this was a great informative video thank you as our household is thinking of getting one too!
Thank you!! Glad I could help
Is there a way to replace the drainage tube? I got mine a couple months ago and it is leaking.
Sorry, about that experience. I honestly haven’t been able to find the drainage hose searching online with the company ): I need to figure that out as well, I’m thinking you can find a tube similar at Lowe’s, Home Depot, somewhere. I need one to. Or if you can’t find one maybe if the leak spot isn’t too bad or at a certain angle to fit, I would try and tape or something to hold tight to cover the leaking? And maybe that will help.
Ooohhh this is helpful for me as well! Thank you(: 🙏🏽😩 I’m trying to get a new water inlet hose, the water over time turns the tube yellow): I’ve looked up other ways to clean it to and all, but I’d rather just have a new tube tbh, so thank you!
Thanks so much !!!!I 💗 I ordered one from Amazon too..Cant wait for it to get here !!
Of course!!😊 Yes!! I hope you like it!!
Hello! Just got mine today and was looking for an instructional video and yours was first to pop up. Thank you!
I thought I was doing something wrong, but I do exactly what you’ve shown here.
I ran the wash but my spinner doesn’t work at all. I’ve reached out to the manufacturer but it’ll take a few days to hear back. Have you heard of others where the spin cycle doesn’t function?
Of course thanks for watching(:
Sorry to hear your machine isn’t operating correctly though. I would definitely ask for a replacement since that one isn’t working on the spin cycle side. I haven’t personally had any issues with it as long as you make sure not to overload your laundry inside that little spinner, because it cannot withstand too much weight or else it knocks on all sides. Have you heard anything back from the manufacturer since?
@@neoshazavala thanks for your reply!Well, they’re allowing me to return it but didn’t offer to replace it. Kind of bummed because I do like the convenience of having this unit instead of having to haul my laundry to the laundromat.
Oh man sorry for the late reply, but also sorry to hear that as well. Thats unfortunate they couldn’t replace it or anything like that. Sorry that experience isn’t the best. I hope you found something that works for you by now. Good luck with everything else moving forward (:
Imma buy one. Thanks so much for all the helpful info!
Glad I could help(: Thanks for watching!
That was such an ingenious idea with the funnel! Tfs!
I appreciate it, thank you!!
You're welcome! Is it still working or did you have to purchase a new one ?
@@86Kera Working on the updated video, sorry it’s taking so long, but as I mentioned to others I’m trying to go in much as detail as I can(;
But this machine is working perfect still!! Love it
Again, I loved the funnel idea, however, if I want to use the water from pipe behind the toilet vase on the side, the pipe that is used to flush the toilet. Does it work. I ask because people use this pipehose water to get water for hand bidet.
Thank you! Wish I could do that but I cannot make any changes since it’s an apartment that I do not own, I rent. So unfortunately cannot do that. But I do appreciate the suggestion! That could help someone else out for sure!(:
You helped me so much! I wasn't sure how I was going to work it all out. There you were with everything I needed to know! Thank you! BTW you mentioned the discoloration around your eye, have considered microcurrent? It can't be used in the area directly below the eye but around the surrounding areas. It helps increase circulation.
Aww thank you for your other previous comments btw! I’m happy I could help ya(: And thank you for helping me! I will check that microcurrent out I’ve never heard of that before!! So thank you for that as well(:
Super helpful thanks for the dawn soap tip too
Glad I could help!! Thank you!(:
Thank u for review and helping others..much appreciated..just got mine I love it..awesome video ..
Thank you so much!! Glad I could help you as well! (:
hey, mine isnt working, i followed your instructions to a tee and all I can hear is the sound of the motor . The troubleshoot on the site says I need to remove the base and install the belt which I assume is the steel zip cord type thing that it came with. how and where do I install it?
My best thing to say here is if you followed my video and it’s having a whole other different experience, it must be the machine built funky, or something just going wrong with it. Unfortunately sometimes that can happen. But I wish I could be more help, I apologize, but truly I haven’t ran into that issue where I’ve had to worry about that situation, so I haven’t taken the machine apart or really know what to do with the belt and what not.
Really nice and clear introduction for the machine. good job
Thank you so much!(:
OMG,I have never seen the funnel hack 😉 Nice,that's smart.. You got me sold too. Thank you Doll.
Thank you!! Happy I could help!😊
@@neoshazavala will it spin / wash a queen blanket?
Not so much large blankets/materials. If it seems to big/heavy for the machine, it is. It’s great for smaller loads and all but heavier materials like this, I wouldn’t risk(;
@@neoshazavala So it won't fit just 1 and still have Space? Because I may have to get one abit bigger. I just want to wash 1 comforter or 1 pillow at a time.
Sorry just seeing this! I really wouldn’t recommend anything big like comforters, this machine is too small. But it is great for a certain amount of materials when it comes to a load of laundry or towels or something in that category. But anything like bigger blankets and depending on material and how much water weight it carries based of your judgment in person, is not recommended. Hope that helps (:
My dryer part doesn't work it wanted spin and the hose is too small it want fit on the faucet
Thank you so much for your step by step instructions. I ordered one after watching your video. I definitely suggest adding affiliated links to the products do we can find the right stuff while you can get something in return.
For those who are wondering about the funnel size. The hose is about 1" wide so you should buy a funnel that has a narrow tip smaller than 1". I ended up buying a flowtool diesel funnel that was similar to the video.
Hey thank you so much!! I really appreciate that. I’d like to sell with Amazon, but being honest, I gotta work on getting approved for a credit card that is required to sell with Amazon and all. So it will be some time until then. But I’m just happy to share for free until then anyways. It helps get the word out and can still help people at the same time until I’m able to do that. But it’s definitely worth making the videos to show people how great they are!
I appreciate you!!🙏🏽😊
Wishing you the best 👍
