Auertech Portable Washing Machine, 14 Lbs Mini Washer and Spin Dryer Combo, 9 lbs Washer, 5 lbs Spinner, Compact Laundry Machine with Drain Hose, Small Washing Machine for Apartments, Dorm, RV

Absolutely LOVE this little washer. Had initially purchased the single tub portable version from another brand and after a trying out and seeing horrible wear and tear on TWO different machines, I decided to try a different version before giving up on these. So glad I did because this one is WAY better. Not sure if it's the design of this model or the quality of the brand, but this version is just so much better. For starters, the motor is more powerful, so you get a much better wash/spin dry. It's also quieter and vibrates less. Since I'm not allowed to have a washer in my unit, and the walls are pretty slim, the quieter agitation of clothes swooshing around is really important for me because I dont want my neighbors figuring it out. This model also has a setting for delicates, the other one doesnt. The spin dryer reallllllly does get the clothes super close to dry. I also like that you can run a wash and a spin dry at the same time. I got the 14lbs version, so i can better hide it if needed. Its not that much bigger than the single tub models, but the quality is so much better. If I had more space in my bathroom i would 100% get the biggest version they sell. Also, for anyone who like me isnt allowed to have a machine (even a portable one), and are worried about delivery exposing your purchase, i can confirm that the box itself does not show what is inside. That alone was worth the $29 delivery fee. Theres no photos or text to indicate its a washer. I know that had me super stressed, so hope that bit of info helps someone else.

So far this has been a great purchase. We live full time in an RV and going to launrdry mats sucks. We wanted to be able to do laundry in the comfort of our RV, but dont have the room for a stackable. We looked at the reviews for this machine and decided to take a chance. We took the advice of others and placed it in our shower on a flat rubber mat. It works out great, because you don't have to worry about splashing water when filling or transferring over to the spinner. Speaking of the spinner, WOW! It works better than any full size machine I've had, which is nice, because not having a dryer means you have to air dry. Now for the reality of what the machine is. It is small and you can't expect to do large loads. The spinner is smaller in size than the wash tub, so you have to separate into small portions when spinning. We are careful not to overload, because we know it's only going to limit the lifespan of the machine. Overall, if you just need a compact washer and are willing to limit the size of your loads, this thing is perfect.

Meet the Auertech Portable Washing Machine - your new friend in tackling small laundry loads! This compact gem is perfect for washing small items, helping you breeze through your weekly laundry. What’s Great: This machine does a fantastic job washing smaller loads. It’s ideal for your weekly laundry needs, cleaning your clothes efficiently. To get every bit of soap out, we suggest adding water and running it again for a super thorough rinse. But wait, there’s more! On the right side of this machine, you’ll find a nifty spin dryer. It spins your clothes super fast, leaving them almost dry and ready for a quick hang to finish the job. The drain works like a charm too! Once you’re done washing, it empties the water out swiftly, so you’re ready for the next round in no time. Things to Keep in Mind: Just a couple of things to note, the hose attachment might not fit all faucets. Unfortunately, there isn’t a separate attachment from the manufacturer. So, you might need to fill it up with a bucket. But that’s a small trade-off for this machine’s handy size and function! It works best when the water level covers your clothes. And remember, a little detergent goes a long way. Half a tablespoon should do the trick. If you use too much, you might find extra soap on your clothes. Lastly, this machine is best for small items. It might struggle a bit with larger items like blankets or big towels. So stick to the small stuff, and you’re golden. To wrap it up, the Auertech Portable Washing Machine is your go-to for small loads. While it’s not a fan of larger items, it handles smaller loads like a champ. It’s compact, efficient, and makes laundry less of a chore. So why wait? Bring this friendly little helper home today!

This is my second washer similar to this. I had the first one (from a different brand) for 3.5 years before it had enough abuse from me and one of the motors went. I am absolutely okay with spending $100 every 3-4 years to do laundry in my own home instead of paying to use shared machines. This is totally worth the money. The agitation is powerful enough to get clothes very clean and the spin cycle dries well enough that it doesn't take long for clothes to air dry. Here are some tips that have worked for me to get the most out of these machines: 1) Just assume you'll use it in the tub. I've tried it elsewhere and it's a headache. Containing it to the tub negates water getting anywhere you don't want it to be, issues with draining and filling, etc. 2) Replace your shower head with something that has a hose. It's incredibly easy to do and doesn't take very long. I did it in my rented apartment in 5 minutes. Ideally get one with a magnetic head so it's easy to put up and take down. This is so much better than filling it with buckets or trying to deal with the flimsy fill hose it comes with. 3) To keep the bottom off of the tub floor and reduce noise for the apartment below, I rest it on 2 anti-fatigue mats that I've stacked. Keeps the bottom from getting wet when draining and my neighbors from going insane. 4) I use a pitcher to collect any water coming out of the faucet while I fill with the shower head. I dump the water in there into the beginning of my rinse cycle, next load, or water my plants. Saves water and speeds things up just a little bit. 5) Get a drain strainer to catch lint. I saw another review that mentions putting a hosiery sock over the drain tube, which is also genius. Ultimate, this machine is absolutely worth the money to help your sanity. I definitely recommend it!

I bought this as I'm living in temporary housing that doesn't have hookups for my large set and the Laundromat is aggravating and expensive. It was delivered fully assembled and I put it to work quickly. Is it perfect? No. But I wasn't expecting perfection. First the things I like. It does a very good job of spinning the clothes in that cycle. They come out just a bit wetter than damp. I hang them up to dry and they usually dry overnight, even jeans. It holds a decent amount of clothing for such a compact size. Don't expect to wash a comforter. It ain't happening, folks. But it will wash jeans, a tee, socks and underwear with room to spare. As long as you keep up with daily laundry, you should be fine. But be prepared to take weekly laundry to a bigger machine. It is quiet, unless the spin cycle is unbalanced. I have done laundry past quiet times here and no one has said a word. The machine itself is very light and compact. It takes up very little room and can be moved quite easily. The things I don't like. It developed a leak very quickly. Water drips from the bottom nearly all the time, even when I have drained it with the knob on the panel. I understand that some water is normal but this seems like an issue. I have to put this in my tub to use it and it lives there when the tub isn't in use otherwise because I fear damaging the floors here. I contacted support and was basically told to buzz off. They literally told me to fix it myself. I'm not that handy so I'm using it and the leak is getting worse with every load. Once it completely dies, I won't buy another. I'll go back to the Laundromat. I have also found worn spots on my clothes that I can only guess come from rubbing the agitator in the bottom. Maybe they become hung up there during the wash cycle? I have also had stains appear on clothing that I call shadow stains. They look like diluted bleach stains but I don't use bleach; I'm allergic. Also the longest wash is 15 minutes. I turn it on for at least 2 full washes if clothes aren't highly soiled. If they're a bit stinky (I work in a kitchen that makes several hundred meals a day) it can take several more wash cycles and it isn't worth it. I go to the Laundromat. Lesson learned. It takes about 5 gallon, approximately 8 pounds, of water to fill the machine for the wash cycle. If you drain and refill the washer between multiple washes and you do the fill and empty by hand (or bucket) it gets tiresome fast. You have to add about 40 pounds of water for each cycle so even in a perfect world of one wash and one rinse, in a situation where you have to mechanically fill and empty this by hand, you're looking at some heavy lifting. Draining will usually end up with probably 30 pounds of that water coming out initially and most of the remaining amount during the spin cycle. So let's do the math. 40 pounds to fill, 30 to empty in a one wash, one rinse situation. So double each one of those numbers, one for each cycle. 140 pounds per wash and rinse, at least. If you refill between numerous wash cycles... Yeah. It can take all day to do one load of laundry and break your back. If you can gravity drain, all the better. But it still leaves filling with all that water. In summary, does the machine work? Yes. Does it seem built to last? Absolutely not. Will it work in a pinch for a short time? Probably. Will it wash everything? No. Will it damage your clothes? Maybe. Will you work hard to wash unless you somehow figure out a way to fill and empty without much human intervention? Yes. Is it small? Yes. Is it lightweight? Yes.

Love this machine! I just got it today and immediately put it to use - already done multiple loads! It’s a bit bigger than I expected but still lightweight and compact enough to carry around easily. I set it up in my tub and used a bucket to add water - was just easier to do it that way for now. With a tween dancer, I hand wash all her dancewear and tights, and this machine is an absolute game changer! It washed and spin-dried everything perfectly. After hanging the clothes to finish air drying, they were completely dry within a couple of hours. I was hesitant to put mesh shorts in the spinner, but they came out perfect - no damage to the mesh! This machine is powerful yet gentle. It does make some noise while spin drying, but that doesn’t bother me. I’m beyond happy with this purchase!! No more hours of hand washing, wringing out water, and dealing with dripping clothes all over the bathroom floor. And I can’t wait to bring it on our RV trips! Love, love, LOVE!

This portable washing machine is extremely easy to use and will come in handy during the winter months. But this cannot do a full load of laundry at once. Which makes laundry day take a lot more time. You literally have to put clothes to wash little by little and to dry little by little as well. This takes a lot of lifting and ringing of the clothes too. It does get a lot of clothing items almost completely dry but not all of them. Jeans and towels will need to be spun many times and even then nothing gets them dry immediately- I’m not even going to bother with my comforter sets lol. I also noticed some fabrics will get those little lint balls all over them which is really unfortunate for clothing that aren’t pijamas lol. Maneuvering this machine is extremely difficult, but will be needed to drain out the water. I have tried holding it up over my tub and ended up having cuts on my hands. If you’re going to use this I suggest draining the water little by little as you’re spinning the clothes into a medium sized bucket. As soon as everything is out it’s easier to hold up to drain all of the excess water. Do be careful draining into the tub. I actually clogged my drain by ejecting all of the extra water into my bath tub. The most positive thing about this washing machine is that I won’t need to go to the basement and use coins to wash my clothing. I live in Boston so everything is extremely expensive including laundry. So having this will help me save money. But it won’t save me any time. I will feel the most content with this product when I am inevitably snowed in in a few months lol and do not need to go outside to get clean clothes. Using and cleaning up after this machine is a lot of work. I may go downstairs to wash everything one Sunday and then make sure that my clothes hampers never overflow. I have too many clothes to wash them all using this machine.

This machine is great for small loads. It washes clothes VERY well. I bought this as a gift for a friend who lives alone. He had no washer or dryer in his apartment. You should expect to pour the water in the reservoir unless you have a shower with the shower head on a hose. Expect to use it in a bathtub, or right next to a floor drain, or outside. In the bathtub works best, straight out of the box. However, if you are handy and have the time to go to the hardware, you can get hoses and fittings to attach it to any water supply/drain that you like. The hoses that are supplied are simply useless. I still say 5 stars because it washes and spins the living crap out of your clothes. It will only do a few pieces at a time, but they get super clean. It took dirt out that a full size did not. And, it is the same quality as the more expensive brands, as far as I can see. Well worth the $.
