Not only I got to see the review n demo of the washing machine but I actually learnt how to wash clothes from you.
Hey there man, my little brother was born with Isodicentric chromosome 15 syndrome and he really likes your henry hoover videos. thanks for all you do for him.
I've been anticipating this video for a while so thanks for uploading. I've got this exact same machine which I picked up secondhand for £50 on Schpock. I use it the same as you with liquid detergent, lights first then darks so I can re-use the wash water ( same way my mom did with her twin tub years ago ) I even add 5 drops of tea tree oil to the wash to kill germs and keep the machine mould free. I'm really impressed with the spinner on this. I laughed when you threw the fill hose as I too replaced mine. My machine is usually situated on two chairs in the kitchen and the water drains into a bucket, it's so quick to do a wash I don't even bother with my big machine anymore and I seem to get cleaner results while using less water and energy :)
If you have cats, be aware that tea tree oil is toxic to them. I'm a cat person so tea tree products are a no go in my house to keep my babies happy and healthy.
Thank you, very informative. 👍 We bought one 9 months ago for the caravan but not got around to using it yet. Now we’ve both retired and aiming to be away from home in the van for several weeks at a time, this will be a godsend.
I hope you’ll be allowed to go somewhere in your caravan this year. I have a caravan and my first site booking has been postponed, but am keeping my fingers crossed for July.
These machines last about 1-2 years just keep this in mind. I have had many sometimes you can get a replacement by seller even if 1 month out with the warranty but not always. They are great machines wash clothes really good, but not great longevity. I am on my 5th machine but I use mine regularly in a small apartment. If not regular use you might be OK with both motors lasting, but one always burnts out I.e washer or spinner.
So helpful, thank you! Bought this while we are having building work done and have no washer!
This brings back some memories Roger. Thank you. Enjoyed every minute.
It must have taken you a while to create this video, but Im so grateful you did! Couldnt find a manual anywhere having just picked this up second hand on facebook market and I got way more useful information than I thought I would want or need. Many thanks!!
Thank you for posting this very informative video. For my purposes I need something that can wash at 60 degrees, so you saved me making a rather expensive mistake!
One of f the best purchase I have made , even though I had to carry it on the bus and train home.its less hassle than a washing machine and easier to transport if you move home or holidaying
Iv bought one of these today and can’t wait to use it
I own one of these machines and really appreciated this video before I used it.
Following your recommendations I used it perfectly. I have a bathtub to drain into and an extra long extension lead to run it.
This machine has saved me so much money at the launderettes. It's £6 to wash and dry minimum so I only take my bedding there as I'm worried my double duvet cover won't fit into the spinner. The mattress protector does however, so maybe I will try it.
I live in a coastal area and spend a lot of time on the beach so lots of sand on clothes, just need to rinse the bottom of the machine once it has drained through before putting clothes on a rinse.
It is a bit more labour to use than a standard washing machine but the spinner impressively gets the clothes much dryer than my mum or sister's automatic washing machines. It's a bit of a chore atm since my shower is broken, so filling pots (the hose they send you is useless) but getting a bathroom tap hose tomorrow so laundry will be a breeze from now 😅
Highly recommend this machine, today I have done 5 loads (2 automatic machine loads) for less than £1 electric. I don't know how much water it has cost, but it's much more convenient and cheaper than using the launderette.
One thing to know about this machine is that it has a 3.5kg capacity in the washing section and 2.tkg in the spin. The extra kg on the wash side includes the water. Water weighs a lot more than you would think.
I have been doing large loads, and putting my clothes into the spinner in half, instead I should have been putting what can fit into the spinner in the machine.
Learnt from experience, belt working over time and burning rubber smell.
I was literally about to comment when you were going to do this
Thank you, a wonderful informative video. I’ve just received my machine and now I’m going to bite the bullet! ❤
Outstanding and well crafted video Roger. Always a pleasure watching and learning from ibaisaic !
Just brought this machine today and i think its fab .i drain soapy water then fill fresh .rince .then put in spinner with bowl water and fabric softener. Clothes came out near dry and smelling lovely. I live in small sheltered housing. And we do have a wash and drying room but with covid19 i choose not to use that room for time being . King size duvet cover washed no problem. Thanks for your video
@Angela Winchester I bought this today, because my washing machine is in the shed (fairly common in older Irish houses)...BUT my fear of spiders is now so bad that I can't go in the shed - it's like arachnophobia in there 😂 I absolutely love the machine, but wish I'd watched this first...cos I forgot to do a rinse cycle 😱
Very well presented and informative, thank you.
Thanks for this video. My washing machine is d3@d so i had to order one as i cant get a new washing machine till next week. Your review really helped me
I got one just like this and I'm in love with it
I want to buy one
You can get small front load machines such as the Zanussi Compact ZWC1301 3Kg Machines.
There nearly 500 quid
Seeing all that makes me grateful for automatic washers, but it's certainly beats nothing.
Too much faffing about couldn't be bothered with all that palaver but has you said better than nothing and probably good for students saves on paying at launderette
Shut up gurl this is still a trend here in my lovely 3rd world sheethole

Demo was very easy to follow. More than I expected with wash performance. GREAT INFO 👍🏼👍🏼
Hey can you do a video of thorough carpet cleaning with the Vax Rapid Power Plus Carpet Washer?
They work best in a bathtub or a shower unit. It is easier to use the bathroom sink to rinse after you spin wash water off. Add conditioner to main wash and it will stay on clothes after the rinse. I use non biological liquid detergent as it rinses off much easier, and works in easier to the main wash. Use a garden shower head to rinse the clothes in the spin drier and spin off a couple of times. Use garden tap connectors and garden hose (which can be bought cheaply). You can also final rinse in the spin drier and add conditioner in the centre (which will be spun out through the clothes). If the machine is not filled up right to the top with water, the wash motor will eventually burn out due to sticking or not enough water in the clothes. Don't underfill the spinner either with clothes for the same reason.
Would be good to see a review of the Costaway 2 in 1 portable washing machine - I was looking at the reviews on Amazon and noticed yours 😀
It’s on my channel.
ibaisaic oh, my apologies - I will have a search now
And also does it spins slower than normal in gentle mode???
In terms of draining would it have to be higher than where you're draining the water into or could it be on level? For example, if you put it on the floor of the shower and just let it drain onto the floor and down the shower drain?
He doing a test product he did the good Idea portable washing machine
can you use the spinnner and washer at the same time?
Ideal as a separate washer for Pet clothing / bedding etc .
When it's washing what's that metal knocking noise
I wondered about that.
very good video by the way your kitchen looks spotless and so clean how do you do it id love to keep my house as clean as the your kitchen is like a show house kitchen
"Get this fill hose" me who taped a 12mm pcv hose with tape to hose adapter 🤣 wish I saw this sooner
What was the max rpm of the spin 2000rpm???
If you put them in the spin dryer a few times will they b completely dry
I m thinking to use one of these to wash baby clothes as I can use the common washmachine of the building only every 2 weeks
How do I get my sock from under the spin tube
I miss the twin tubs sooooo much 😔
Me too 😊😔
Aren't u happy with your automatic frontloaders lol
Take it this model is better than the 'good ideas one'
That noise when the machine is washing is normal? 😮
agree to a twin tub washing machine fill holes tube
Hey i have a very old vacuum cleaner a Samsung. It's about 22 years old and i want to sell it i looked for prices for this one but i found nothing it s like inexistent. Can u help me?
P. S. I don t know The model all i know is that it have 1500w
Hi, I bought this secondhand and I can't get the spinner to work even though it was supposedly fully functioning. Any ideas why the spinner wouldn't be working or if there's something I'm doing wrong? Thanks!
If you have power to the washer, the spinner lid is fully closed and you have turned the spinner timer on, then it should work. If it doesn’t, it’s probably a problem with the switch that prevents the spinner operating when the lid is open.
Has anyone mended the drain hose? The water runs straight out when I fill it!
How did you stop the metal banging noise at 5:35 ? I just bought this machine and it makes the noise constantly when using the wash function, basically making the machine unusable. Thanks
I’m glad to hear yours makes that noise because I thought mine was faulty. I didn’t do anything to stop it, it just comes and goes. I keep meaning to open it up and see what’s causing it because a larger twin tub I had didn’t make that noise when washing.
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks
hi there my washer doesn't drain. I used it for the first time in ages. I put the dial to drain and put the timer on but nothing happened.
Just bought one of these due to not being able to get my automatic repaired due to lockdown
Yep, same here!
What a time to have our washing machines not working!
Great video! Any other appliance videos coming up?
No, do not press down. The spinner will nit work properly. You should also connect the hose while spinning to rinse the clothes and then remove the hose and just spin.
I use microfibre cloths to polish the aluminium fuel tank on my lorry. Do you think this machine would be suitable? The cloths are soiled black with polish after use and I plan on using some microfibre reviver chemical instead of normal detergent.
Why not try in laundromat and never come back ever again 😂😂😂😂 the owner would be pissed
Thanks for sharing
how much and how many kilos is the washing machine?
How the insert the water
This one doesn’t sound too good I’ve heard others that were better built than this. Plus more water is always better than too little water, less strain on the motor.
I have twin tubs washing machines
And also this machine is cheaper in eBay than amazon
I do have three twin tub washers 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜
You collecting them 😀
Lucky you 😂
Could you do the Royal Home twin tub? It's OK if not.
Great video, could I wash and spin a double duvet? Thanks
No, it’s too small to fit a double duvet.
Would it wash a double duvet cover?
Hi, I think it would wash a double duvet cover as I've manged one with my wash only machine with capacity of 3kg
Still a fan of the newest vaccumes and carpet shampooers....thought that was your main reviews. Love you, hate this video:/
Always leave the washer water until you have spun or the machine vibrates like yours did badly.because its out of balance
3:17-3:20 isn't that a criminal offence? Lol
U supposed to drain it before spinning
would the spinner work without the spin mat? thanks
You well and up with clothes flaying all over the place
Привет
Would this manage a double duvet cover ?
Yes it will wash a double duvet cover on its own, but you would need to wash the pillowcases and sheet separately.
ibaisaic where do you order the machine thanks 🙏🏻
They selling these at the min at argos
That spinner is scary !!!! ⊙_⊙
Finally
could this THING actually do some serious wash ? 😯 it reminds a lot on that American top loaders and US washing machines are hygienic disaster
@Deb in every ways. You have just cold /warm washing no proper boil wash on high temperature and that's mean no real bacteria germs removal there is no drum with pedals no real mechanical action , laundry on US top loaders are just churning in dirty water and all you could do is pray that detergent is strong enough to do some of this gaps ! During my tenure in US I always had this feeling that I gone get some skin diseases or something because of this 😁
@Deb let's face it Deb you are just an American who could understand this advanced washing technology we have here in Europe LOL 😁 Now seriously we don't need to go in copper boiler room because our machines have built in heaters and thermostats.Also we practice washing on 95C and that is about 200F degrees for thing like kitchen clothes towels underwear dirty T shirts and stuff like that which needs to be properly hygienically care and that is kind of standard procedure here and also I noticed that cotton laundry never could be such white and bright if you wash it on low temperature .And one thing more I heard that Debbie does Dallas but she also does laundry too ?? 😁😁
I am shop naw plz price him
I am not a shop and don’t sell anything. You will need to search the internet to find out prices and availability.
@@ibaisaic hi mate. mine ran great the first day but now only the spinner section works ? the wash tub turns a half turn and stops when I switch it on and trips my electric. please I need your help ☹️
efdt
I certainly will not buy one of those, I don't want to go mountaineering to empty it, or stand on a stool to use it.
Good for you
Coming across as to much work for regular use
On a budget, it's a great alternative to hand washing items. But there are portable automatic washing machines that are a bit more expensive.
It’s better to buy new clothing
Hi. If I may add.. Rinsing can be done in the washer itself, by doing the filling up, spinning and drain steps three times, and then the clothes can be transferred to the spin tub for drying. IMO No back and forth transfer required between the two tubs for rinsing,one final transfer is good enough. Thank you for the detailed demonstration.
Great thanks. I needed to buy one as im gunna be 2 weeks without my washing machine as its broken and i h@te back and fourth lol
Yes I thought this unnecessarily trans the washer to spinner two more times this is rediculas
Thanks
Hi Great video thanks. Old bloke by myself so probably a stupid question but wouldn't it be easier to just to drain the wash water and subsequent rinses leaving the clothes in the tank rather than all the removal, spinning and reloading? May need an extra rinse but I'm guessing a lot quicker?? Thanks
The reloading removes lots of the soapy water so it needs less rinse time. You can also leave the clothes in the rinse/spin drum and add clean cold water directly on top alternating between spinning to dry and spinning with water to rinse as it all drains into the same reservoir tank. Hope this helps !
50 odd years ago my mother had a twin tub and it had a hole in the spinner lid to rinse at same time as spinning, your twin tub is crazy not having a lid with a hole in it, maybe you could drill one.. love your voice, relaxing.
B xx,,
Thats exactly what i thought. There is an inlet on that side to attatch the fill hose to however
If you're having trouble with dye running, add a little white vinegar to the wash water, helps precipitate the dye back onto the fibres.
Ure a genius, cause I’ve always dreaded washing my favorite skirt because of the fabric running. Had to hand wash. Now I can put it with the dark clothes in my mini washer.
Thanks👍🏽
@@Jojodancer20100 I learned about using white vinegar when taking classes in spinning and dyeing fibres. Also, add to the rinse water, and any detergent or grease still on the fibres should come out. Keeps the machine fresh and reduces soap scum/lime scale build up.
@@meganwilliams2962
Got it little sis. I got 2 bottles from Walmart an ima add it to my wash tomorrow. Thank u
@@meganwilliams2962 yeah my washer smells good when using white vinegar to laundry too aside from leaving the lid open.
The world needs people like you. Thank you 🙏
Bought 1 of these about 3 weeks ago, a fantastic temporary machine. My full size washer died on a Saturday, overfull basket of clothes awaited. Bought it on Monday and got stuck in. Launderette is not an option. Anyone who has ever had to bend over a bath and wash and WRING a tub full of clothes would gratefully appreciate 1 of the machines. I shall happily continue to use it while I decide which full size machine to purchase. I use mine in the bathroom and fill from the showerhead and drain into a bucket. Thanks for a good video, everything is covered.
Yes I hear you girl. Been washing our clothes in the bath & I hate it & can't get to a launderette during lockdown. I think this might be a good solution 👍
Would it be good for a boy around 12 years old ?
Try out Beko frontloaders they are good and they are quality some people even have their applainces from Beko for decades or years..
OMG! That’s left me knackered! I think I’ll stick to the baggy !!! I can have a bevvy whilst waiting for it to wash! 😁😁😁😁
0:40-0:45 Have you ever heard of something called a funnel?
You needed to do a rinse cycle after the wash cycle before you spin them that way you get all of the soap out before you spin it.
Spinning the clothes after the wash and before the first rinse removes a lot of the soapy water so the subsequent rinses are more effective.
The reason they keep including such pathetic Hoses - is because nobody ever complains about it... (to them I mean!) People are too tolerant.
I don’t know if you can still get this but would you still recommend it or is there something better now ? Thank you so much. Need one for my RV as we’re going from UK to France for 6 weeks.
" Best thing you can do with this fill hose is......throw it away!" Almost peed my pants!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi ug Ferber I'm
Mene to nhi dekhi khapar milegi
How much ENERGY to run - watts an hour
Hi there I can not find that hose you have at the beginning can u link me if possible thanks
Are you doing a full demo of the fully automatic compact washing machine
Sometimes
Am thinking of getting one of these for camping, so this was a really good look at how good they really are - thank you! :)
I really like your videos i like all of your videos keep up the good work
Yup, I’ll just go to the mat and pay the money
It uses more water than a regular big 8 kg with all the rinsing cycles needed
I have one if these, wouldn't be with out it 😊
Ure voice is so calming. ❤️watching ure videos

@@Jdn19
Nah ure
Can you plumb them in like a normal washer
No.
Those hoses they supply with the machines are horrible--eek, yuck!
Do you have a link for the hose? Thanks
Twin tub fill hose I just order from Amazon
