I purchased this washer as a last resort before I went bonkers with trying to jockey for position in the apartment laundry room (there is one woman here who does at least 10 loads of laundry DAILY..!) Since I have had this wonderful machine for the past year, I have been able to keep up with all the laundry, and still enjoy my life! One secret to using this that I learned is to turn off the water after the wash water has all flowed in; that way, if you want to put in fabric softener, but you don't want to hang out over the machine, it will make a beeping sound when it needs more water for the rinse cycle and will not continue until you turn the water back on! Otherwise, you can time about 15 minutes for the wash cycle, keep the water on, and hope you don't get involved in anything more important. Another tip: I hang my clothes to dry, and I have discovered that it is helpful for faster drying to spin dry the clothes twice. Yet another tip: TURN OFF THE FREAKING WATER BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE WATER HOSE FROM THE SINK SPOUT. Yeah, we have learned the hard way. Make sure to turn it off and NOT remove the hose for a little bit, then place a towel over the connection as you remove it if you really don't want to take a shower at that moment. And, finally, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE DRAIN HOSE IN THE SINK AND FIRMLY DOWN THE DRAIN PIPE. Unless, of course, you want to wash your floors that day. I LOVE this washer and am very pleased with my purchase. It has improved the quality of my life considerably!

Life changer

UPDATE** its been over a year now and the machine is still working perfectly. I see that the price has gone up ALOT...i paid $239...its now almost $600 ( i assume from presidents recent china tariffs). I love this machine but would not have been able to justify buying it at that price. Anyway, thought id supply some helpful info if u r thinking of buying this ..first if you type the name of this washer and ‘manual ‘ into google u can look at and/or download the manual w/ all of the specifics for free. Set up was easy and took me (someone who is not very handy) about 15 mins. Pay attention to which sides of this machine you can safely lay against the floor, as you need to lay it down to screw on the bottom plate. This is also important for moving it into your home when its delivered. And make sure not to cut the uppermost zip tie holding the drain hose. Required tools: open end pliers, tape measure, and phillips head screw driver, they also list needing a level but i didnt use one. What took me a little while was figuring out the "aerator" situation on my faucet. The manual for the machine says if you have a faucet with threading on the inside of faucet that you should use the included rubber washer to connect the hose to the faucet but i found that the rubber washer was too large and ultimately the only way it would connect to my faucet was to remove that little washer. Not a big deal- there is a small slow trickle of water that comes out but nothing significant. Not sure if others have had this problem or if its just my sink. Also when I first got this I considered putting it in my bathroom and letting it drain into my bathroom sink (typical little oval shape approx 16 in Wx 6 inches deep). That wouldnt have been a good idea and i would have had a flood. The amount of water that is drained from this machine and the speed at which it drains requires a larger sink , so I use my kitchen sink (typical tub style metal kitchen sink). Someone mentioned that you could only use cold water with this washing machine which is not true. You simply set the water temperature via your sink's normal hot and cold knobs to the temp you desire and then hook up the hose to the faucet. The manual says not to use water hotter than122 F degrees . Ive not had a problem w/ temp. There is no lint filter on this model and i recommend putting a mesh drain catcher into your sink to catch lint or a some panty hose over end of drain hose. I havent had an issue with my clothes being linty or my drain being clogged. There is are no gentle, delicate or hand wash settings (just heavy= approx 70 min running time, normal =approx 35 mins, and quick= approx 20 mins) on this machine and I have gotten around that issue by doing the following: I add clothes to the washing machine as usual but I leave the lid open while it fills with water. I leave my clothes to soak for a while and then close the lid and let it swish around for about a minute or less (can repeat these 2 steps as desired depending on how dirty/ bad the stains are). I then turn off the machine, turn it back on , push the "cycle" button until it lights up on the "rinse" selection at which point the water drains from the machine. If the clothes are super delicate i take them out at that point and squeeze out the excess water into the sink by hand. (If they can withstand being spun i leave them in) . I then put them back into the machine once it has finished spinning and draining the soapy water and is filling back up with clean water. Again i leave the lid open, let them sit in the water a few mins , close lid for 30 seconds or so to agitate and then turn off/ turn it on, press "cycle" button to "spin ." The water drains out , i remove my clothes and hand squeeze excess water into the sink and hang to dry. I also want to clarify that this washer can and does handle loads of clothes well beyond the 1 outfit I described originally. For me, a typical load consists of a cpl pairs of jeans, 10 undies, 3-5 t shirts or shirts , can handle my entire queen sheet set. Can handle my bath mats. Cannot handle my queen comforter or my large kitchen runner ( approx 18 inches by 68 inches) . There are video tutorials on replacing the belt if needed (i havent had to yet, but if I ever do it looks easy and cheap). Theres also a customer service number right on the inside lid area of the machine and supposedly they are responsive . Hope these things help. No complaints here. Love this thing. ~~~~~ After a few weeks of looking at the options , and contemplating buying one of the cheaper portable washers that were made of plastic , took up more space, and had no pump, I decided to spend the extra money for this and am so happy with it. I live in the 3rd floor of an apartment building, am a nurse , and was sick of lugging my work clothes down to the washers in the basement every couple days and constantly having togo to the bank to get rolls of quarters. Now when I get home I can just throw my outfit in the wash on quick mode (which takes about 20 ish minutes) and it's done. I air dry everything on a collapsible clothes rack I keep stashed in a closet. It seems to do a better job of washing my clothes than the standard machines in my building ever did. This machine doesn't weigh as much as some of the other comparable machines and my sister and I had no problem carrying it up to my place- this was also a factor I considered when I was buying this. I'm not super muscular or large.. So that mattered to me. It definitly seems to be a sturdy / well made machine and this brand and machine have good reviews, w/ people reporting after 5+ years , theirs are still working well. I agree with some previous reviews which said that the machine sometimes struggles when the water level is set to high - it will beep and stop abruptly- but it seems like that has only happened, for me at least, when I may have overloaded the machine with towels (which get pretty heavy when they are wet) and this hasn't been a regularly occurring issue. Would definitely recommend this. Such a time saver and life changer !

A great space and time-saver!

Our apartment doesn't have the room, or the plumbing for a standard clothes washer, so we were delighted to find this compact little unit that could be rolled out when needed, and put back in the closet and out of the way when it's not. SETUP IS EASY! Setting it up after purchase literally takes just a couple of minutes. You just screw on a base plate, add the caster wheels, stick on the hose and tap connector, and you're ready to go! You don't need to be handy to handle this machine at all. HOW BIG IS THE TUB INSIDE? DOES IT CLEAN WELL? I was unsure how well such a small machine would clean, but I was really surprised at what a good job it does. Don't be fooled by how small, or how simple it looks. It may not appear to be doing much during the wash and rinse cycles, but it really is. Clothes come out great! It has a plate in the bottom of the tub that twists and spins rather than a centre agitator like many machines, so it is much gentler on clothes. You can also fit more clothes in it than in a machine with a centre agitator. It seems tiny, but it can wash a queen-size flat sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillow cases at the same time easily. I wash queen-size polar fleece blankets in the machine with no problems. Recently I washed a puffy fuzzy bath mat with a rubber backing and found the machine did a great job. The last bath mat I tried to wash in a machine with a centre agitator ripped the rubber off the back of the mat in tiny pieces (what a mess to clean up in the washer!), but this machine is gentle enough to leave the rubber intact while thoroughly cleaning it. Needless to say I was very impressed. DETERGENTS, FABRIC SOFTENERS, ETC. You can also use any detergent you wish, though low-sudsing is best. Tide Pods are super in this little machine, but liquid and powder cleaning agents also work well. Crystal or bead scent products such as Downy Unstoppables are also safe to use in this machine. Fabric softeners can be put into something like a Downy Ball, as there is no automatic fabric softener dispenser, or you can add fabric softener during the rinse cycle yourself. IS IT NOISY? DOES THE SPIN CYCLE WORK WELL? The washer is very quiet during the wash and rinse cycles, but can be a bit more noisy during the spin cycle. No worries though - the spin cycle is short and very effective. There are no clanks or bangs, just more of a loud whirring sound for a minute or two. The spin cycle on this little machine is amazing! Clothes are powerfully spun and can either be hung to dry (without any fear of water dripping out of them, as they're alreay half dry), or placed in a dryer with absolutely no additional wringing needed. It's every bit as good as a full-size washing machine. IT'S STURDY! This machine is quite sturdy and doesn't move around when in use. It's on caster wheels that have little "brakes" on them if needed, but we've never applied the brakes and use ours on smooth lino where it stays put on its own. The only time it seems to have ever moved was during a spin cycle where the clothes in the tub became off-balance. It moved about an inch, and then beeped at me to open the machine and rebalance the load before continuing its cycle. HOW DOES IT COMPARE TO A "TWIN TUB" WASHER? Before buying this washer I looked at a twin tub portable version from another company. It was cheaper, but clothes are washed in one tub and have to be manually moved over to the other tub for spinning. A special piece of plastic is put on top of it all and set to spin. Having to move the clothes over was an extra step I thought unnecessary and a time-waster. I wanted a machine I could put my clothes into and walk away, knowing it was doing all the washing, rinsing and spinning on its own. It's well worth the few extra dollars for a single-tub machine. I also prefer the electronic controls on this washer over the manual dials that many of the twin-tub machines have. IT IS GOING TO FIT IN MY KITCHEN OR BATHROOM? The compact size of this washer is wonderful. We have a galley kitchen with less than a 3.5 foot pathway between both sides. This machine sits nicely in front of the kitchen sink and still has plenty of room to get past it, so you can go about your business in the kitchen and wash clothes at the same time. GREAT FOR YOUR OWN USE OR AS A GIFT TO A NEWLYWED COUPLE OR NEW MOM OR DAD I highly recommend this portable washer, as it's good value for the price, and fits into our little apartment with ease. They also make good wedding and baby gifts to those like us who have limited space and/or can't hook up full-size appliances. This washer would also be good for a cabin, RV, or college dorm. We bought the Haier HLP140E 2-3/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Tumble Vented Dryer to go with this washer and love it too! (Please note that I did not purchase my machine through Amazon as a big-box home improvement store was offering free delivery on this product at the time of purchase, however I would be very confident purchasing through Amazon and feel the delivery cost is actually worth the price for this great product.)

Great washer. Perfect for apartment. Pairs well with Panda dryer.

I was used to a full-sized washer that could wash more clothes at once, but as a newly single guy adjusting to apartment living I have to say I really like this little washer. It's fully automatic (fills and drains itself, washes and spins in the same tub) unlike some of the other brands. It uses only cold water so that might be an issue with white clothes if you must have them looking their brightest, but all my clothes are dark, and I always did set my full-sized washer to just use cold water always to help minimize fading. I used to get away with doing 1 load/ wk with the full-sized but this is smaller so I do loads 2-3x/ wk now which I discovered I actually prefer since putting away the laundry is less tedious now because there's less of it (putting away laundry had always been my least favorite chore). You can connect it to a regular w/d hookup or a sink (it comes with optional wheels and a funky hose). I just bought a regular hose and hooked it up to the w/d connection. Even though the water inlet is plastic, make sure to put the hose on extra tight or it will make a mess as soon as you turn on the water. Hand-tight is not enough. Use a wrench and do it at least 1/4 turn past hand-tight. It Pairs well with the Panda dryer which they are small enough to fit together in a 3 sqft w/d room meant for a combo w/d (which I opted not to get since they are known to have issues).

Tapping water source from the shower

The washer is pretty quiet and doesn't vibrate much. I think other reviews have tons of great info. However, I am writing this review to provide a way to tap the water from the shower head. If you are like me that your kitchen and bathroom faucets are not available to install the provided attachment, you can tap from the shower head instead. I got three parts to make this work easier without the need to screw and unscrew all the time. 1. Delta faucet U4922-PK Diverter Amazon link: http://a.co/5Tg7S2K 2. Dixon DGH7 brass quick-connect fitting Amazon link: http://a.co/dhqMShB 3. 3/4" male to 1/2" female adapter Amazon link: http://a.co/8vRAZ2K I attached some pictures which is pretty self explanatory for the install. Hope this can help someone else.

Sooooo done with that laundromat life <3

omg! so amazing! very cute and SO SMALL! fits in my hallway closet. was on the fence about buying it but after reading many reviews and watching youtube reviews, I bit the bullet and pressed 'add to cart'. I looked at a few other models, but all of them seemed pretty janky and this one looked like it would legitimately clean my clothes, not just get them wet. (and it does legitimately clean my clothes -- hooray!!) the machine arrived in MINT condition - not dented or scratched - totally pristine. there were only a few assembly steps and they were both very easy (just make your husband do it!) -- screw on the bottom cover and attach feet or wheels. the wheels DO spin in all directions, so if you want to ride inside of this washing machine and play bumper cars, you may. the drain hose is already attached. you just have to attach the filling hose. def do this with a wrench or something. don't trust your weak lil hands to do the job, because if you do, it WILL leak, and your neighbors WILL complain. just use the dang wrench. make sure you can remove the aerator of whatever faucet you plan on using to fill up this beauty. I wanted to do this in my bathroom, where we have a delta sink, but our delta sink has a stupid plastic lil aerator that you need a special $10 delta aerator wrench to remove. ummm - h e l l no! luckily we have a faucet with a reasonable screw-on metal aerator in our kitchen that we now use instead for all our washing needs. I set this bad boy up last night and ran two loads on 'normal' and I didn't even have time to finish two eppies of Parks and Rec - that's how fast it was !! (well I had to keep pausing the show at each step of the wash cycle just cause I was so excited to run into the kitchen and witness each little thing that the machine was doing now.. Oooh, it's draining! Omg, it's rinsing! Wow! It works!) The spin cycle made my clothes super duper dry but did not destroy them (important). The spin cycle was also super quiet for how fiercely it spun. (I was expecting it to be bouncing all over the place, but the machine was pretty still). The spin cycle is legit tho. Nothing is drippy and some of my thinner clothes dried in like an hour after coming out of the wash. If I had some thick stuff like towels or sweaters or jeans on the wash, I might do a double spin. FYI- I have a pretty small kitchen sink and when this machine drained it didn't even fill it up a quarter of the way at any point. So if your sink likes to take its time draining, don't fret. This lil bugger is super considerate and drains the water out in small portions. How nice! If you are still schlepping to the laundromat, who even are you?

Over 4 years going strong.

Prefect! Had this washer for over 4 years now, it had a minor issue and even though the warranty expired (1 week) it got serviced! A bolt holding down the drum came off. It was in and out repaired! This year, the washer wouldn't spin my clothes fully, there were still soaked. I had no idea what the issue was, so about a month later I unscrewed the bottom of this washer to see the belt completely loose and totally worn out! I went on amazon got 2 replacement belts for this unit for $16 total. Replacing the belt was super easy, you don't have to unscrew anything you just slip it on and it sits firm! I'm looking to get a lot more years from this little washer. I wish the capacity was bigger but I'm so used to it now I wouldn't know how do do laundry in a large washing machine! Absolutely love it and highly recommend this product! I attached a picture to show you what condition the belt was after doing thousands of loads of laundry :)

SO HAPPY I FINALLY GOT THIS....

I kept eyeballing this machine for about 2 years, and I finally bought it without any regrets.....LOVE ..LOVE...LOVE THIS MACHINE... Money well spent....well packaged..no dents anywhere, just put the metal pan on place the wheels, plug in and start.... my water pressure is low so I pour the water in...it drains out in my tub... spinning cycle is quiet...the spin cycle spins your clothes almost dry....and I hang my clothes out... Just one thing, When it's on the rinse cycle just make sure you untangle the clothes before the water drains out...NO REGRETS....BUY IT....

The wash/rinse/spin cycle on normal with warm water was pretty fast. Items were spun out really good

Bigger tub than I expected. It's a cute little functional washing machine. It arrived with metal/rubber feet that were changed out and replaced with the optional wheels. The machine is quiet. It would not hook up to my bathroom sink, so we gotta use it at the kitchen faucet. The only thing so far that I've noticed that could be sturdier is the drain hose. No big deal though. I washed 2 t-shirts, a pair of pajama pants, one washcloth, one sock and a small child's shirt 20 minutes after the machine arrived. The wash/rinse/spin cycle on normal with warm water was pretty fast. Items were spun out really good. I'm impressed so far, but will update this review after we've had the machine awhile. *UPDATE Oct 2017 Machine is still working fine. One thing to expect is fuzz from this machine on your clothes and the fuzz clogs your sink, so do yourself a favor and buy a lint roller and metal sink strainer. Also, watch the sink in case the strainer gets too clogged and water can't drain. Clothes get twisted in this little washing machine--it's just the design of a small machine. I don't mind much and shake the clothes out before throwing them in my Panda dryer. Love this little washing machine. <3

the washer is doing great so far

It is 5:52 pm i received my washer (HLP21N) around 4 pm. I have wash 2 quick loads with no trouble. I had a bit of noise washing two pairs of my husbands jeans. But, the are large jeans and i didnt put the back wheels on so it was unstable. Once i paused the laod and leveled it correctly, no more noise. Other than that, which was my fault, the washer is doing great so far. There were no leaks either. I told my husband this is one of the best investments we've had. Hope i do not have to take it back. TIP: put all wheels on the bottom, make sure to tighten the connections and you shouldnt have any issues. I will come back and update after a while to see the longevity of the little washer or if any problems arise. UPDATE: Day 8 and the washer is doing great. No leaks or any other issues. I do wash heavy loads but i dont over load it. Its been off balance 2-3 times but nothing bad. For a family of two adults, an infant, and a toddler, its perfect. I've only had to do an extra spin once for a load of towels and pants just so they would dry faster. Our clothes are usually all dry by the end of the day. I use fabric softener on the rinse cycle so my clothes dont dry stiff. Will come back for another update :) UPDATE: Its now been 2 months. The washer is still do great. No problems at all. I still stand by my 5 star rating!
