    Love this! We got a mini washer as well back a few years ago when our apartment complex had a shared laundry. That laundry was disgusting! Getting the washer plus a cute little dryer was the best investment. We got a home now and both are still with us. Both work great and it’s seriously amazing how such small appliances can make our life better. Congrats on your little washer!

    Hey I have one of these,
    You should tie a nylon stocking at the end of the drain hose. You’ll be surprised how much lint it will collect. You don’t want to get your drain to clogged with lint and then your landlord finds out you have a washer 😝

    Super cute machine! Great job hooking it up, I have no patience for machinery. You could also use a fold out drying rack for hanging clothes maybe if you have a balcony. That could help free up your shower. But that was super smart to hang them in shower.

    • @KarentheKarrot

      it took me a while to figure out lol but so worth it! i dont have a balcony so the bathroom was the best spot ! plus i somehow thought that my clothes wouls be dripping water so i thought the tub would be a good spot to let it drain lol

      @KarentheKarrot  2 роки тому +2

      I still have my hose over the sink. I added a sticking over it tho to collect the link so my sink doesn’t clog up ! I love air drying my clothes it’s not a hassle at all and it saves me energy :) but I am also a one person household lol

  • @lukiejames

    Hi Darling,
    These are great! However you do need to use a little bit more detergent then that. On the cup it will have the line for small,medium and large load.
    If you can powder detergent is much better at cleaning then liquids.
    Also leave the water on for the full cycle till it finishes as it will need to add water after the clothes absorb water and then to rinse.
    Hope that helps.

    Lol Karen---Your's is the best video I've watched about mini washers. Especially about the Black & Decker. I did a lot of fast forwarding on the others, because they spent too much time elaborating on piddly stuff.
    I agree with you on not getting a double barrel one. Mine is a double barrel and the spin barrel just gave it up eating a hole through the side! Yup, having a mini washer is a necessity like a stove & refrigerator living in a apartment. You have helped me in my buying decision. Thanks (70 year old 👵)

    You are probably doing a quick wash , it doesn't wash very long.
    On a normal wash it may wash once , and rinse 3 times.
    With me I like to wash and let them soak for a while, then spin on a different cycle. Mine has different cycles you can use. You have learn how use it, they don't start immediately sometimes. They do clean good though. .

    Espero que ya en este tiempo hayas entendido que tu lavadora paró no por que está dañada ,si no por que queda como 2 ó 3 minutos en remojo para hablandar el sucio de la ropa. Tu lavadora es muy bonita y buena lavadora. La proxima vez no heches un chorrito de detergente , niña me quedé en shok 😮 😅 cuando ví eso. 😊 Con una tapita basta. Muy bien por que pudistes hacer la instalación tu solita, felicidades.
    Cuando puedas has un update para saber cómo te vá con tu lavadora.

    Wait, so this model can't use hot water? If this is true, what a waste.

      That what the instructions state. A lot of the times it’s better to wash your clothes in cold water . It preserves the clothes better for longer .
