Giantex Portable Washing Machine, Full Automatic Washer and Dryer Combo, with Built-in Pump Drain 8 LBS Capacity Compact Laundry Washer Spin Dryer for Apartment RV Dorm

First of all I tried to give a 5 star rating but the first star will not respond. I ordered/received this washing machine a year ago this month, for use in my apartment and have—to date—washed 340 loads and it still does an absolutely beautiful job!! I regret not ordering it years ago. I live alone and it can handle my laundry needs perfectly. I can wash a small load every few days and hang dry the items. The washer spins out so thoroughly that items dry on hangers in just a few hours. I can wash queen sized sheets easily by washing the flat sheet and pillowcase in one load and the fitted sheet and second pillowcase in a second load. I love that it is—in every real sense—an actual washing machine, just small. I can easily pick it up to move it but I happened to have a small square, flat truck that I set it on and wheel it to the sink and back to the corner. The machine control panel makes it very easy to select the water level and wash cycle and once the fill hose is connected to the faucet the machine auto fills and shuts off the water flow until more water is needed for rinse cycle. There is no detergent or fabric softener dispenser on the machine but I add detergent as the water begins to fill tub and set my phone timer to remind me to add softener/ sanitizer at the final rinse which is 11!minutes before final spin out. I am SOO happy with this little machine!!

This washer came in so handy when the plumbing in my garage burst when it got below freezing this past winter. It is compact so I can store in a small corner of my kitchen. I can do big enough loads that aren’t an electrical drain for my dryer. Small enough loads to make it not as daunting for weeknights after work. My clothes actually get cleaner with this little washer than they did with my big one. It spins well, drains well and lets you know real quick if it’s out of balance. If this thing only lasts a year it is still less expensive and more convenient than the laundromat

Small, but powerful. I can get 4 pairs of jeans, or 8 shirts, or 3 towels per load. Complete cycle is 40 mins. I had no issues hooking hose to the sink in my bathroom.Tip....I lifted the seat and directed the drain hose down the toilet, then put the seat down to secure it. It worked perfectly, no disasters, and the soapy water cleaned my toilet.This little machine did an amazing job getting clothes clean, and spun them enough they were completely dry, hung up on the shower rod in about 2 hours.

The media could not be loaded. I could hear water water sloshing around in the machine when it arrived and I brought it inside- the machine comes with a nice little water damaged packing slip that says the liquid is from quality control testing- they're either lying and selling used returned machines as brand new, or they are not adequately draining the machines during said testing and delivering customers brand new machines with musty moldy factory water in them. Neither is really acceptable.The lid was janky and defective right out the box- It would not open/close appropriately or consistently because it did not sit properly on its plastic hinge pin. Even when manually popped back into place it would just pop back off when attempting to close the lid on the machine.I've gone through two other portable washers and had to throw them out after this part of the machine broke, as it is basically impossible to fix, and the machine ceases to function once it goes (there's a tension strap attached to the lid which prevents the machine from running when the lid is open- when the hinge breaks there is permanent slack on the strap and the machine wont run).I'm sure it's a lovely machine if you can get one that was put together and tested appropriately, but this thing had too many problems right out of the box for the price point it is offered at for me to trust the brand.Not going to waste my time with something that can't do the bare minimum out of the box and already has end of life symptoms before I even unwrapped it.

I’m not going to lie, I almost didn’t buy this due to some bad reviews. I said to myself just buy it and if it’s bad send it back. Well I’m glad I did. I’m so impressed with this washer. Quality is good, looks great, not heavy and easy to use. The washing modes are insanely good. I can’t believe how good this machine washes. The spin cycle on this thing could outrun my car if it had wheels. It’s intense. I wanted to give 5 stars but I’ll come back in 6 months with an update review and if it’s still going I’ll give 5 stars. So far I’m extremely satisfied.***4mos UPDATE***Washer is still going strong and is great. I love this lil guy. You can wash 6-8 Shirts at once. Jeans, no more than 3 at a time. Don’t even think about washing comforters, blankets etc… sheets and pillow cases are not a problem. It’s a powerful little machine but can’t handle really heavy material. I think this is how ppl are breaking them. You’ll be impressed with it. Don’t be alarmed if yours comes with water in it when it’s opened. They all come that way because they’re fully tested off assembly line. Only thing I would change is the lint catcher. It catches nothing at all. Could be a problem I don’t know because this washer has a water pump. Maybe they could redesign the lint catcher in the future. I’ll update again in 2 months. I’m very satisfied with this machine and impressed.***UPDATE 6MOS Review ****Washer is still going strong and is an awesome machine. Extremely satisfied and would definitely recommend. Only issue I have with this washer is its worthless lint catcher. It’s basically there for looks because it doesn’t do its job. I’m not sure if it’ll be an issue long term due to it having a water pump??? Other than that I love the machine. It’s really quiet for apartment living. I hope the manufacturer steps up and redesigns the useless lint trap. I’ll do a 1yr update to keep yall posted…
