I got the Laundry Pod. I had the problem with the machine move on the counter. I went by the local dollar store and got a rubber door mat for $3. It's big enough for the machine to rest on and reduces the moving a lot.

Thank you so much for this super helpful, real-time demonstration and review! Yay for saving resources!

I enjoyed your review. I have recently seen a few manual clothes washers online & this one seems like a good option. Thank you for explaining thoroughly about the Laundry Pod.

I had the Panda washer and spinner, although it was electric, it worked about the same way. I used the rinse water, which usually had a bit of fabric softener in it, to wash the next load. I tried to wash 2-3 loads per 7-9 days, consisting of towels, undergarments, and regular clothes.

I have been thinking about buying this for awhile now & now I'm sold I will be purchasing one soon!😁 Thank you for the review.😉

A superb demonstration - convinced me! Thanks!

thank you for this video. You've convinced me to buy a portable washer

This looks perfect for tough stained clothes that you want to soak in Oxi-clean.

I have been looking for a review for the laundry pod and came across your thank you i am on my way to purchase, you have done a great job on the review

This would come in handy should we have a prolonged black out and no electricity. My prepper instincts are telling me to purchase one of these non-electric babies! Thanks for the informative demonstration! I’m sold!😃👍✨💖✨

I have used this it is great, tip on drying I have a dehumidifier closed off my bathroom to dry clothes. They dry in one hour; also I live in a pretty humid state. This still never affected my drying time one hour on the dot. Where the air is sucked in you can put a bounce sheet your clothes smell great. Many Blessings Mea 🙏💜

Looks like great idea for delicates and occasional item. Love fact is as eco friendly as can be. I saw a foot pump type on a narrowboat vlog so started Googling . Looks like the spin drying element definitely makes it superior to hand washing in conventional manner which if being honest haven’t done for years. Take care

That looks really great. I use a plastic plunger style washer but I have to manually squeeze out the water like you do when hand washing. I really like the spin drying function a lot. Thanks for the great video!

I really like that product U-Save on the electric bill. My mother bought me and apartment size washer that you wash on one side move the laundry over and it spin drys on the other side. It does not take much water or electric I hang up my clothes in the bathroom and they are dry within an hour or so. I live in an apartment and gotten sick and it was too hard to go to the laundromat which I didn't like to do anyway and I can just pull up a chair sit and watch the laundry wash move it to the other side and spin it out. If it had been me washing it I would have bought one like yours.

Thanks for the video! I am just trying to see if this is a great unit to purchase.

This machine looks cool it does van life or camping would be awesome for sure it save your hands an especially if it's cold weather it's not a bad idea to have one if washer breaks

I got mine for emergency use or travelling at home. We live in a cyclone prone area. I will do all my washing prior to a cyclone hitting, in my washing machine. After an event, this comes in handy to wash clothes daily, especially not knowing when the power will come back on. Outside of those two uses, it is great for fine underwear and nighties. Great to use during a drought or for all hand washing. A non slip rubber mat underneath keeps the little sucker from sliding around.

Thank you for the video. I just ordered a laundry pod and I'm looking forward to receiving it. I am hoping I can wash most of my laundry in small loads in it, so I can avoid paying for my apartment's laundromat. It adds up, even if I can just wash less in the laundromat that would be great.

Thank you for your excellent tutorial using the laundry pod. I received a unit tonight from the peoples market(in trash in front of a store). Will be using it soon for regular wash. I will also try washing and drying large amount of salad(might be the ultimate salad spinner)? Bruce the swimmer New Rochelle N.Y.

I have a twin tub washer and spin tub dryer i just washed a nylon type bra and it was shredding on the edges i had to pull it off.

The stuff I use is called, "The Laundress Wool & Cashmere Shampoo Cedar". You can find it on Amazon or give it a Google search and can find it sold other places as well!

Sorry I didn't show that. It does depend, of course, how dirty the clothes are. This will not wash a ton at a time, but, it does a great job for small loads. If something is super dirty, you may want to wash twice (wash once with soap, empty as good as you can, wash again with soap, then do a couple rinses and drying spins). Any natural stuff like dirt has come off no problem for me. Of course, less soiled clothing cleans much faster and easier.

You're supposed to spin one way, then spin the other way. That mimics the action of a regular automatic washing machine. I don't know how big your sink is but I put mine down in the sink so it is held still and doesn't try to wobble around as I spin it. This is an excellent gadget if you know how to use it properly.

Advice, to keep your clothes from any damaged, before putting in regular washer, take a pillowcase with zipper, put your bras, silk shirts and or other items inside the pillowcase, and put inside the washer! For sure your clothes will be safe! That's what I do with my clorhes! Oh, by the way, this Pod Washer won't work for me, do to Arm and hand injury!

shocking that you need less laundry detergent in a tiny container compared to a washing machine with 10 times the capacity :D

I don't mean this in a disrespectful way, but when you say, "Look at all the suds in there, it'll get all over everything and get clean". Please know, it's not the suds that clean, and a lot of bubbles is actually a chemical used that produces a lot of bubbles, not an actual cleaning factor. You don't actually need a lot of bubbles to clean well. But many people wrongly associate "more bubbles" = "better cleaning", when it isn't. But that is what the commercial soap/detergent companies have programmed us to think. Again, not trying to be rude, I just wanted to point that out so that you knew.

@earthling1984

I already know that. The point was simply that you can see the soap is mixed in well everywhere. I only use natural shampoos and soaps. They don't make suds like store bought crappy chemical soaps.

You do NOT need 1/4 cup of detergent in your washing machine. No one needs that much.

I would have some concern that if the water did not cover the clothes, that the fabric on top would just ride around and not get any water movement, and therefore not get clean. For as little water as it takes, I think that covering the clothes is necessary. But follow the instructions. Additionally, he said he likes to soak the clothes, but that would be of little use if part of the clothes were not in the water.
