Loved your demo’s. #nomorelaundromat
The only reason I purchased a dryer years ago is to dry large bedsheets and bath towels in it because those take forever to dry, and it's hard to do multiple loads in one day. But for pretty much everything else, I use a drying rack. It's gentler on your clothes and you save on energy cost. 😊
That's what I was wondering. Many only own a portable washer and let it air dry. Easy enough to hang clothes.
But with sheets and towels, it's not enough space in apartment for clothes rack that big.
Unless you have a clothes line, I miss those, or a backyard to put big clothes rack, you really need a portable dryer. Because the portable washers I see, the clothes come out damp. Machines do well with extracting water from clothes.
on nice days I do use my drying rack for jeans and towels...the heavier items.
I moved to Europe from the US and got into this practice. It may take some more time but it is very practical!
It's crazy how different countries function
You can use spinner then hang dry on the rack. Here in my country we normally hang dry our clothes outside.

I use a 5 gallon pail and a toilet plunger. I plunge them for about 30 seconds and then let them soak for a few hours. Rinse in clean water, and then hang up to dry. It took about a 100 dollars off my 3 month water bill.
Interesting..I hve a washer and dryer but I bought a wash board in case and it’s not my water bill that’s gong up it’s sewage. It’s weird cause if my water is low why my sewage going up. Scams everywhere but I will see if it lowers my bill as well .Tc!
I will try that
Good idea. Wringing out the clothes is the tough part. Light cotton dresses and tops are easy in summer. It's the bulky knits and jeans that are more difficult to manage. Now that I'm retired I might just wear them out and replace with lighter items.
you can also use bathwater for waching clothes
That's what i do! Wringing IS a little tough, they still drip a little bit on the line. I tried doing my rolling pin on a wood, but just shived it around and was awkward. I'm thinking about making a second rolling pin and lashing them together and making a wringer. They're way too expensive for a 'real' one lol
I totally agree, I live in a small 1bd/bth and didn't even know these existed until 2 years ago. For under the price of one full machine, I outfitted my kitchen with a full functioning mini laundry corner. Totally worth every penny to never go back to a laundromat again!
i agree!
Years ago, I lived in a third floor walkup. Bought a stackable, but separate portable washer/dryer (used) the first week I lived there, and it became my favorite thing in the whole apartment. I did my wash during the week, leaving my weekends open, and over time, it paid for itself. I have never been without a washer/dryer since.
Your comment could be in the "Useful" category IF ONLY you had mentioned the brand of the washer you got, so that we could consider/do research about that washer and maybe buy it too.
What brand was it?
You know your old when this get you excited
😂 guilty
I have a mini washer and dryer as well. It's a game changer!! I couldn't imagine going to the laundry mat on a regular basis anymore.
same!!
What’s the name brand
@@dylanschmidt4607 links in the bio but the washer is giantex and dryer is morus
@lovelyamerah what brand do you have?
@@BigNoe-u7u For the dryer, I have a mini magic chef brand. Holds a fair amount of clothes,bigger than the one shown here. I also got the magic chef rack, to put the dryer on and washer underneath. The washing machine is called Krib brand...from China. Got that off of Amazon. Like I said before, having both is a game changer.
After terrible washing conditions during collage I appreciate washing so much. For me comfortable washing and drying indicate a real home.
Collage?
@@highlyfavoredMGdidnt work out well for them
@@Dagothdaleet😂
The dryer throws a lot of moisture into the room so you want it in a very well ventilated area or next to an extractor fan if you don’t want damp issues
Exactly, I saw a apartment of a friend become completely damp and in need of a renovation because they installed a drier.
Not a bad thing in winter with dry heat but the recirculated scents of laundry products could trigger allergies or a migraine.
@@msr1116Use dryer balls made from wool. That way you aren’t dumping that junk in the water supply either.
@Mmmmm2n well ventilated
@@msr1116duhhhhh use fragrance free soaps 😅... Obviously if you're allergic to breathing it,then your skin can't tolerate it neither
I’ve had my portable washer for almost 3 years and I love it. I live on the second floor and carrying laundry up and down stairs is a big pain. It’s nice that it’s no longer a chore I loathe because of the extra annoying steps of using a laundry room. I don’t have a dryer but usually it’s not a problem to just hang stuff up. I wouldn’t mind having one though.
Which one did you have bc the one I got is SO loud.
@@NATASHA12023 I have a Panda PAN3620W fully automatic washer, you just have to hook it up to a sink and turn on the tap and it does the rest. I don’t think it’s very loud, it’s about on par with a regular washer and maybe holds about 1/3 of a regular sized machine’s worth of laundry. What kind do you have? Some of the ones I’ve seen reviews on seem to have a really loud spin cycle.
I am 85 yrs. old & live alone, and cannot go down the basement stairs anymore.I would really like it! No more Laundrymat!
giveaway already happened but I have the link to the machine in the bio!
I had moved into a smaller 2bd apt and had been doing the laundrymat thing...when covid hit I just went ahead and purchased a portable washer and a few weeks later got a dryer. The dryer was $240 and the washer was $209. This was back in 2021...best money ive ever spent.🧦 #NoMoreLaundromat
You can drag a little that dirty water hose through that hanger part - it would stick out deeper into the sink and you woulnd't have to worry about flooding your kitchen. You are clever with a tap fittings ;) 👍
I've been on the fence for YEARS debating if I wanted to get a portable washing machine and dryer for my apartment. Literally just purchased one an hour ago, and I’m such a loser with how excited I am lol. We don't have in unit washers and I'm a single mom of two toddlers 😩 lol #NoMoreLaundromat
Please never say your a loser, even in jest! You are an amazing woman! I know I was there were you are! 🥰😉🌺
Loser, what ⁉️, it makes u happy, how it make u a loser. ♥️
lol its the simple things!!
You're not a loser!! It is exciting 😁 to get grown up items, especially washer and dryer!
Lol I get really excited about stuff like this too, I told my friend that’s how I know I’m getting old is I get excited about boring domestic stuff now. 😂
I don't have this exact one, but I recently bought myself a washer with the spinner beside it. My mom also surprised me with a portable dryer as well. I' just moved into a NEW apartment where there are no hook ups or units in my apartment. There are units in the basement, but you have to pay to use them. Anyway, this has been a game changer for me! Cuz sometimes, I dont have money because I got debt to pay off and bills racking up. Just cuz I'm struggling dont mean I wanna live uncomfortably. I gotta function, ya know? Anyways, this changed my life having these appliances. I highly recommend everybody and their grandma's to get these portables.
yes i love mine!!
I had a portable washer for 5 years when I lived in a studio and loved it so much!!
which one did you use? if it lasted 5 years it must be good!
@@amysprints the brand was Haier. Very similar to the one she has in this video, but mine was a bit simpler
Im a 61yrs young granma n have decided to live the college dorm life as a roommate with my granddaughter to help with expenses and I need this in my life ♥
#NOMORELAUNDRYMAT !Okayyy😂
I do my laundry with a 5 gallon bucket and one of those hand held laundry plungers (it's basically a modern version of a laundry plunger from around early 1900s), it's called, "Lehman's Manual Clothes Washer Plunger". To spin my clothes, I have the Panda Portable Spin Dryer. Finally, I hang my laundry on a rack for air drying. It's the best solution for me.
nice set up! I used to have the panda its good!
Thank you for this video it was very informative, due to the fact that my mom and I live in a walk up it’s hard to go up and down to the laundry. My mom is bed ridden and it’s hard for me as her caregiver to be suffering from carpal tunnel and a torn ligament in my ankle. We have a portable washer but couldn’t afford the dryer to. It’s just hard to air dry the towels because they come out not as soft.We live in Brooklyn, NY and the laundromat is so far away and I can’t leave my mom in the house by herself for too long, so this dryer would be a game changer since I changer her sheets and clothes so often. I love your videos by the way, you were the reason why I got the same washing machine as you. Thank you!!! #nomorelaundromat
Wow this is a game changer for me. I am needing to rent a place and no washer and dryer hook up. This will help me wash without a laundromat or a community washer and dryer for apartment complex.
I'm retired, and have little to wash, so I bought a washer like this (an RCA brand) ... it works wonderfully well, gets the clothes very clean. As for drying, I just hang-dry everything ... but that little dryer would be nice for socks, etc.
yes perfect for small delicate loads
This is AMAZING!!!! I hate having to take laundry outside or at a laundromat!!! You saved my LIFE!!! Thank you!!!
@1:00 I cut a hole into a homedepot bucket lid. Then I let the water collect in one of those orange buckets. Then dispose of it in the tub. If the water is super duper gross I empty in the toilet. The secret to not letting it overflow when the water collects in the orange bucket you can monitor the water level (as the bucket is faintly transparent and changes to a datker shade of orange wherever the waterlevel is)
OMG I would love to have that Morus dryer 😩 I literally love my apartment that I've been living in for the past 5 years, but the community coined laundry is literally my only complaint. It's been so frustrating, it's $2 in quarters 1 wash, $2 for dry. I dread laundry not only because of that, but I'm always having to wait for another tenant to take their stuff out & they sometimes keep it in there so long I have to skip laundry for the day. I want to be able to do laundry when I want on my time. I want to switch to the same method you're doing, but both washer dryer are a lot on me right now June & July have been the hardest on me financially. I'm in California, I'll pay for shipping & throw extra in for gratuity 😭💕 #NoMoreLaundromat & #NoMoreCommunityLaundry & #NoMoreWaitingforothersToTakeTheirClothesOut
Lol I literally dump other people laundry on the table if they dont come back after an hour
Don’t wait, give them 5 minutes don’t show throw on a table! I se to be like you then I saw others not caring and dumping them out so I did it and never looked back lol
you want to not tax those little washers. lived in flatbush had one of those for a couple years. if you over stuff them, it'll burn out the motor, or threads/misc stuff will get caught up in the drum, or just not work as well/clean as well.
do smaller loads. more often. Get a couple little clothing wracks. we used to just have lazy sundays doing a little laundry at a time, when you don't have to go to the laundromat, doesn't really matter
yes i def try to not overload the machine!
This would be very helpful for me and my family. We are renting a place and there are 4 people in our household. For one batch of washing we pay $2 and the same with drying clothes. I think it’s just too expensive to completely clean all the clothes. Wherever I look around the house there’s always a pile of dirty clothes, so my mom handwash them and it’s just too much. I just want to say thank you for being generous to people. May God bless you! #nomorelaundromat
This is the first time I have seen a portable washer like this it is so similar to the full size version! Also the dryer with the shoe rack is amazeeee #nomorelaundromat
this is the first time I see a hot girl like you
Want to say: enjoyed your presentation. I have a tiny apartment in NY too (Bronx) and would love those two appliances, but my landlords would not allow it. I dont care for their machines in the basement, and im sick of laundromats. Both are super cute. 😂
A few commenters explain how they just use a simple plunger & bucket for laundry & hang clothes to dry. We also dropped laundromats by using a spinner to wring water, wash most by hand & hang things in bathroom to dry. With old heater pipe that's in apt bathrm it's like a large dryer esp if we run a small fan. No risk of flooding & saves rather than using laundromats. Can understand the LL, but this approach is ok. Great w/o lots of laundry to wash.
As a safety advise, use sandals or any kind of shoes when operating an electrical device; specially when you deal with equipment that can drop water on the floor.
Im rather LOVING that little dryer! Would it handle a full sheet set, I wonder?
i believe it will fit! maybe just the fitted sheet and doing the other sheet separately
I did the same settings of washing machine for 3 years in my previous apartment, but I put that in bathroom.
It's really great not to use laundromat or community laundry.
Also using dolly cart with Anti Vibration Pads is a big plus for small space with minimum noise.
A washer, dryer and dishwasher are must-have for me.
agreed
Freedom from the laundromat! Branded Chinese machine I've been using for a couple years is a "Panda", looks almost identical. Does a fantastic job. As good as any full size front loader, great hack. Very light weight and easy to move from where I store it to where I plug it into the bathroom faucet. (And drain into the tub.). With once or twice a week use, has paid for itself at least 2X compared to what I would have spent in quarters. They have a pretty aggressive spin cycle, so one may need to stick some folded cardboard, or something, under a corner foot to keep it from rocking on old, out of level NYC apt floors. I line dry, works fine, but the dryer is a civilized touch. #nomorelaundromat.
i've used the panda i love it
Dude, you can replace the original hose to a metal one? woww, that's news to me. I'm going to change ... wait, mine is still working fine, for next time maybe. Thanks Lil.
Thanks for the demo. I'll be moving to an apartment without a built-in W&D so I've been looking for an alternative to the complex's laundry room. What a life-saver! #nomorelaundromat
Great video. In the past when I paid rent, the landlord lord paid the utilities. I was told that I could not have those portables.
Now I’m the owner it’s not allowed because of the water draining from the third floor and second floor. Maybe you should
Check with the owner first. I lived in three different states, Tennessee, Missouri, Illinois. Landlords owners didn’t want this.
How about not telling them? I have never been told this so you must of asked. If you asked a landlord for everything they would probably say No to it all lol
Great video.
Didn't know about this brand.
But will share it with my my apartment/condo/townhouse friends.
And it's quite small enough for a small company to use for small time cleaning
The dryer 8s the one thing i dont have. My place is under 500 square feet so space is an issue for sure. I was using the laundromat for years because of the lack of room, but thankfully got a washer about 2 years ago. Having arthritis in my spine was making it too difficult to get to the laundromat. Now i just need to figure out how to fit a dryer in as well for winter drying
They now have the washer/dryer combo in one unit, I'm curious if it really works well.
Not a fan! I used one for a month and couldn't stand it. Everything took forever and you couldn't do a washer load while the dryer was running (obviously). That's my experience. Never again.
I cannot stand going to the laundry mat. I lived in a tiny one bedroom and these little washing machines were a life saver. I bought a drying rack for most of my drying. Same thing with dishwashers. I got a nice portable one as well. Nice!
i still have yet to try the portable dishwasher!!
I’m a student moving into a budget dorm without a washer/dryer, and while it helps with the rent, I’m definitely going to have a hard time doing my laundry since the nearest laundromat is terribly far. The morus would be a dream come true for me honestly and I’m in love with the design!!! #nomorelaundromat
me and my daughter would be so blessed to have the dryer for our apartment perfect for my grandbaby would help us out so muchI hope and pray we are Picked I have never want anything in my entire life LOL #NOMORELAUNDROMAT😊🙏👧🧑
A tub @ a drying rack would work 👍
I love how this video is just a straight-up video tutorial
Not a pretty lady baiting like skins and stuff
And it really shows the bloopers too 😂
I clicked cause of the dryer didnt know about portable dryer exist
😏
I have the washer. It works so good. I love your compact dryer 👍
🤗
How much was the washer?
i think its around $250 on amazon (i have a link in the bio) but i got mine used!@@Benz5469
No more laundromat..I bought a kupett mini washer but it only lasted a few years,so now I've done my homework so I can purchase another mini washing machine.I hated going to the Laundromat and using public machines where they Are not sanitized after each wash.Wining this dryer would be even better for my at home laundromat washing machine experience.
Loved loved loved your video.!!!
As an avid college swimmer, this will be a life saver!! If I get the dryer I’m immediately ordering a portable washer 😂 girlie, I will pay for shipping if it means not having my swim suits stolen at the laundry mat #nomorelaundromat 🤩
The dryer price it’s $500 on the site 😅 m saving money hehe
It's a sad commentary when even swimsuits aren't safe in the laundromat. People will steal anything for resale
I've been considering trying these portable appliances. My current apartment has hookups and space for full size machines, but I have to move every 3-4 years with rent constantly increasing, and sometimes I can bring machines with me and sometimes I can't. Right now I'm renting machines just because you can call and have them taken away when you move that way, but I'm considering machines like these so that I can just bring them with me wherever I move to.
i think its a great investment
This is the first detailed video on this dryer! No one else actually showed us the filter! Thank you so much! #nomorelaundromat
It’s not the first. There are people who even torn them apart and showing that these dryers are a scam..
I dont see how you would be able to wash bedcheets like comforters duvets or curtains mats and bulkier heavier stuff? How do you wash those? Can they handle it?
bedsheets yes but not comforters
I can really use this dryer! I’m a single mom and I recently lost my job. I can’t afford to reload my wash card for my apartment complex as often as I used to, so this right will be helpful and a blessing at the same time. I recently got a little 8L portable washer from Temu and have been hanging my clothes up in the restroom to dry, so the dryer would really help me out! #NoMoreLaundromat 🙏🏼
If you lost your job, hanging up your laundry will be fine for a while. Many countries don’t even use dryers. It’s normal.
You could have really used this dryer. It would be a huge help. I hope you find a new job and get a dryer. :)
this is so helpful considering the fact i just moved in my new apartment and they told me last minute we have no washer and dryer connection, thank you!
:)
What a cute dryer! It would be perfect in my small bathroom! I have a portable washer connected to my shower. Then hang my clothes on the shower rod to dry. This would be so helpful! #NOMORELAUNDROMAT!
This is an Awesome video! And the dryer looks Amazing! #NOMORELAUNDROMAT
Now I see how those washers work I'm going get that one. I just bought the other portable washer with spinner on one side
I recommend using soap nuts and vinegar to wash your clothes. You can also add essential oils to the vinegar like peppermint, lemon and orange. Another option is real soap (made from lye & oil) mixed with couple of other things.
oooo 👀 i will look into soap nuts thank you
Always attach a knee high pantyhose stocking to the hose that drains the laundry water to catch all the lint so it doesn’t clog up your sink!
good idea!
I have a similar washer. Some tips:
1 on my machine "air dry" means air drying the machine, aka blowing out the hoses and drum of the empty washer, for last load of the day to keep moisture from causing odors etc. It is not meant for air drying the clothing because that is what the spin function is for.
2 hook up your hose to the faucet and turn your water on before you start the machine. The connector holds the water back from running until you are ready and it does NOT cause dangerous amount of pressure on your plumbing. You should not hear that humming sound of your washer waiting for water...you are causing undue wear and tear on it that way. You are fast to get it turned on but the longer you hear that noise the harder it is on your machine and could potentially burn up the motor.
3 also when you are done and need to disconnect your hose from the faucet first turn the water off. Then lay a dish cloth over the connector while you are separating it. The water is still under pressure and will spray when it comes off. It's not a lot of water but can be quite a surprise so save yourself a spray to the face.
4 use less soap in general. Run about a gallon of water before you add soap or bleach etc then add the clothes. The agitation on these machines is not as strong as a normal machine. This will dilute the soap from getting in your clothes full strength and will help you get a better rinse.
thanks for the tips!
@@lilpeeva you are welcome! I have another trick with this, you seem to have secured your drain hose from your dish drainer. The rest of us are praying. Haha I ended up taking 2 ponytail holders and splinting the hoses together in two different places. Since one hose goes directly to the faucet...if they are tied together the other one can't be far from the drain. Also the saddle piece that shapes the hose into a U to hang on the sink divider can be adjusted along the hose so it may help get the hose in a place where it doesn't slide around as much.
#nomorelaundromat Admittedly, I don’t usually use the dryer, as per world environment challenges. However, this one sounds super duper efficient! Cheers.
I have a few questions:
How much can you fit in both the dryer & washer?
Can you fill up the washer by filling it manually (pouring water in the washer or spraying in water through shower? instead through hose?
Does the dryer get clothes all the way dry?
Do/can you use hot water in your washer?
is it still working?
the dryer does get all the clothes dry and i do use hot water and yes it all still works. I've had it for years. here is a video on filling it up manually: ua-cam.com/video/n57COhqBsS8/v-deo.htmlsi=agOUYGvv6aCgrTPQ
@@lilpeeva Thank you! One more question but how much can you fit in the washer and dryer? can you fit a blanket or how much clothes you can typically fit in there?
@@bloopbanana5465 im able to wash my queen size sheets in there
Great video! I actually FOUND one of those portable laundry machines on the side of the road by my apt and I promptly picked it up and brought it home. Thanks for showing me how to plug it in and I’m so excited to use it. It’s in near mint condition. #nomorelaundromat
Great video. Subscribed! Also I know I’m too late for the giveaway but damn sweet giveaway! 🎉
Love your practicalities and thrift, and the fact that you are sharing wishing you success at the best.
aww thank you!!
So this video shows up on my feed and I was like "What!? Americans don't have washers and dryers in their apartments!?" Thank God I live in Africa 😂
😂 they don't give us anything
Yeah and my apartment complex doesn’t allow us to have these portable washers and dryers. They do regular inspections of the units. I’ve seen several tenants removing their little washers. It’s very annoying
@veronican9110 it's always about control 🕳️
She lives in a tiny apartment. Most Americans do have a washer and dryer, as well as a dishwasher, a trash compactor and central heating and cooling.
yea greedy bastards
I bought a washer and dryer both from magic chef…I loved them I would do laundry all the time because I have 4 kiddos and my husband works a lot so it was sooo convenient especially since we lived in the second floor then we moved into another apartment that had a washer and dryer and I sold them…the we moved states and our apartment doesn’t have a washer and dryer…and now I’m on the search again and these products have literally jumped in price compared to when I first started looking for them in 2022…
try to buy one used! but also totally worth every penny
So incredibly helpful. Great job on your eco-friendly contributions too! #Moreus #NoMoreLaundromat
That's a great setup! I had no idea portable dryers were even a thing. I'd love to have that setup in my current apartment, but they're not allowed under the lease-I have to use the building's machines, which are pretty expensive. I'm planning to move, and since many apartments don’t have in-unit washers/dryers or hookups, I’m definitely going to ask if portable ones are permitted before I sign a lease. I really hope I find a place I like and can afford where they allow it.
I'm so fed up with going to the laundromat, wasting both time and money. I just want to be able to do my laundry in the comfort of my own home, especially as I age and my back injury gets worse.
mine isn't allowed either but i still snuck it in hehe
I was literally looking on youtube to see what portable dryers were available! My cousin is about to have a baby and they don't have a washer/dryer set in this building and this would be perfect for them to dry their new baby's clothing! #nomorelaundromat
no more laundrymat...yipeeee...love this one..but so expensive...some are sold out on line...your helpingother people know about this...good for you...
thanks for watching
That's sad living in new york, spending thousands on rent and you don't even get enough space for a permanent install washer
Or your landlord says you're not allowed to have one.
The thing you're screwing off the faucet is xalled an aerator which changes the flow of water out of the tap from a stream, to a white flow full of air to make it seem like more water comes out for washing hands and dishes
👌
Great concept but not all condos or rental buildings permit them. Best to check with property manager prior to buying them. Some insurance companies will not cover damage caused by machines not approved by management.
That sounds dumb, it’s a portable washer. Not to mention that she purchased it so if anything was to happen it would happen to the washer itself and has nothing to do with the apartments.
Does the laundry machine parts fall apart?! Maybe i shouldnt get it.
so far no
I really am interested in this dryer! I just bought a portable washer/spin dryer and I really need a proper dryer. Have been checking out this model, but it's a little pricy, so it would be great for my tiny apt! #nomorelaundromat! And I live in NYC. 😊
Omg! I have one of those portable washing machines, and i had a hard time trying to find the right hose! Thank you so much!
🤗
Great setup! I have to hang clothes in my apartment for days, after washing to dry. Also in NY and hate the laundromat this would be super helpful!
Thank you!! 😊🙏🏽 #nomorelaundrymat
Thanks for the great information. And maybe you already know this since your setup looks really good 🙂 but there are those splitters where you can keep your sink faucet free while you're using the washer by switching between the two with a little toggle switch.
ohh thank you! good idea!
You should really sharing pricing. The dryer is almost $500 !?!?!
If you have space for a clothes rack, you can also dry clothes with an electric compressor dehumidifier. They have other benefits as well, such as removing damp in your home, and reducing humidity in hot weather.
good to know!
I live in NYC. The laundromat around the block corner is $2.50 for the small wash machine, and I do 42 minutes of low heat dry at $0.25 per 7 minutes. $4.00 per wash. The two machines total $850 before tax, well above $900 after (don't know about shipping). That's 4 and a half years of weekly washing, and at a significantly smaller capacity, and what I can only assume to be less cleaning performance than actual commercial-level washing machines. Don't get me wrong, I would love to not have to carry my laundry around the block, but... this ain't it, chief.
i see what you are saying but i think there is more perspective that can be given: 1. NYC is a big city with incredibly expensive apartments and even very small apartments tend to be very expensive bc of the location, meaning many people living there, although not living in a very luxurious looking place for what they are paying for it would likely be able to afford these machines or it would be worth it for them for the time/energy they save. 2. Dryer machine would not be as useful as a washing machine since air drying is always an option and not too difficult usually, so it could be done by only purchasing the washing machine which would make it a lot less . (However, i do not know how these products would be effecting your electric and water bills so that should be taken to account as well) . 3. For the perfomance of cleaning, im not sure how it compares but honestly, maybe if that is a concern someone could just do regular washes in there but for their clothes but for maybe things that require deeper cleans or sheets or blankets, could take it to a laundromat
Personally, I prefer hooking this up into the bath shower as opposed to a kitchen sink. Reason being that by connecting to the faucet as you have set up here you actually you rather beat up the faucet itself and cause it to wear out. If you notice how much the faucet bobs up and down when you connect the hose, that's not good as it puts a lot of strain on it. However, if you buy an attachment that allows you to hook this up to the shower head instead it's a much more secure fitting that doesn't have any slack in it as a kitchen sink would. Also the drain being lower to the ground in the tub means you don't have to have the drain hose suspended high up in the air making things just be a little bit more secure and clean in the end.
what kind of attachment do i need for the shower head 👀 i didn't know you could do that
@@lilpeeva since my earlier reply to this apparently didn't meet the UA-cam comment guidelines as it used an external link, Google "Ian Gay, connect a washing machine to a shower head." (that actually is his last name, btw) the only change to the setup I would make would be to instead of using the long, 8 foot hose that he uses I would instead get a 4 ft long one and have the permanent connection be at the shower head where he has the quick connect. And have a quick connect be at the end of the 4 ft hose so it could then connect to another 4 ft coming off the back of machine. That way you could just simply leave the hose hooked up in the shower where it will largely be out of the way and just very easily use the Quick Connect at the midpoint between the two hanging over the shower basin. If for any reason if there is to be a leak it will likely be at the quick connect and having it be that way it'll just a drain away easily. Oh, and try to put some Vaseline on the Quick Connect points. You'll keep it lubricated for EZ connect hookups that way.
That dryer is $600. 😂
jesus. for that price i’d just buy a normal one 😂
How much does the dryer weigh? Where do you store it? Thanks so much for video!!
its probably about 30 pounds and i just have it on a table top not the best storage lol
Having an outlet so close to your sink is a hazard. Is it a GFCI safety outlet?
I know plastic bottles are recyclable, but I prefer powdered detergent because it comes in a cardboard box. The bonus is that it is also cheaper!
I remember my grandmother's washer had a 'water saver' setting. Her hose hung into the laundry sink, similar to yours, but right to the bottom. With the plug in the deep laundry sink, her wash and rinse water filled it almost to the top. She would start with her hottest /cleanest load and save the water for the second, cooler /dirtier load. The hose would suck the water back into the machine for a second use, which was great!
Great video, i have 0 need for this but ended up watching the whole thing 😆really comprehensive, good tips, solid editing, attention to detail, and overall cadence!
lol thank you for the thorough review
Question: Does your washer automatically do the rinse and spin cycles?
Love that little dryer!!
yes it does the whole cycle!
5:00 thats so smart the cup always gets all sticky! i never thought to do that
You must plus this in a GFCI outlet and turn off the electricity if you have a spill
That's cool I live in a apartment complex of 90 unit and the washer and dryer are most of the time broken,but I get me a mini washer and dryer I'll be set, those are going on my list,like your video,thx.
ur welcome, good luck!
Amazing but i really got to tell you about all in one washing machines, ive seen lg samsung and hisense front load washer and true dryer, i actually have an lg, the options are 11 and 15kg of clothgin, perfect for everythin including light bed clothing, also they are extremely quiet and you just put the cloths in there and you forget about it, she will wash and dry and tell you on your phone when the load is ready.
I have a similar washing machine but I hang dry my clothes on an extra large arch drying rack from Lehman's. At least I know what dryer to buy now if I need one.
You have the best video for these appliances. I'm also planning on getting a dish drainer like yours.I will also get the metal hose. Thanku
aww thanks! what other appliances should i review?
You should grab a pack of steel wool lint catchers for the drain hose of the washer. It catches a bunch of gross slimey lint over time that can clog your pipes.
I have a 5-gallon bucket, works like a charm.
Good luck and congratulations to whoever wins.
I got the washer. But I can't afford the drying.
I hang my clothes on a foldable tripod clothing line.
I'm grateful and thankful for having them.
My washer exactly like yours came with the fitting that allows the sink To be fitted to the washing machine hose.
I have a question about the faucets, when you start the washer , do you LEAVE the water ON ? Like running after the washer is full or do you have to keep coming back and turning on/off the faucets ? I definitely want one THE WHOLE SET UP you have going on !! Thank you for sharing too !!😊
u keep the faucet on/running through out the entire cycle. start to finish
@@lilpeeva Thank you soooooo 🙏🏾😊 !!

#nomorelaundromat. I’m disabled, I just moved and I’ve never had so much laundry pile up in my life. I had a wash/dryer in my last apartment for the first time and it made everything so much more convenient
Just a tip, pick up some cheap pantyhose/stockings and put one over the end of your drain pipe. A rubber band will hold it there. You won't believe how much lint comes out of the washing machine over time, and will start to slow your sink drainage
These are really cool portable appliances! Great presentation!
thank you
I caught this late, but wow I love the dryer. I have a different washer, and a smaller dryer looks like it's on my list.
Hi... Thx for your vid! What is the operating temperature of that dryer? Thanks
Most landlords is NY do not allow you to install any kind of washer, dryer, or dishwasher without their permission. This includes portable ones as well. Careful with following advice online lol. Might get you put out of your apartment!
How much do they cost? I'm on the 3rd floor apt. I do have a small, 5gl plastic bucket that seats in a motor but doesn't spin and drain out.. crazy I've been shopping prices, models and boom here you are!!
i LOVE the one i have! highly suggest it.amzn.to/3GtDwSh
