    As a van dweller water is precious. I got the pressure jug 20 years ago, it's a peice of junk! The salad spinner on the other hand is a keeper. You need a couple 5 gallon buckets. First separate your laundry, just like great grandmother did lightly soiled whites in hot soapy water, agitate to get the load wet, let it soak, let soaking do most of the work, agitate some more, inspect the clothes, if you find spots rub them out with a bar of laundry soap ( Felt Nathan is a good one. ). Spin the wash water out in a bucket and save it for the next load. With the soapy water spun out rinse with cold water with dash of vinegar agitate and spin out your rinse water Saving it for the next load. Light colored clothing next following the same steps. Let the next batch soak while hanging out the first batch to dry. You can do a family laundry with very little water. The rinse water may need to be changed when it gets dirty. When you heat water on your stove and have to pack your own water, you wize up, like great grandma did!

    I bought a similar model in the UK made of metal and the pressure, ( like a pressure cooker) helps clean the clothes too. I used it to wash sheets, clothes, towels, curtains, jeans, etc. I used it in the bath and on the draining board in the kitchen. It speeds up laundry chores, so in the summer you can get through a lot of laundry in a day. This model looks superior to the one I used. Amazon should be selling it here in the UK for goodness sake!... ????

    Oh I like!! Great review! Those would be amazing for me as a vandweller and they don't look like they'd take much room. I'm always wishing I could wash a couple items without having to wait to have a full load of clothes. This is actually pretty perfect for minimalist minded people who don't have or want a huge wardrobe (like me!). Or someone living in a van who has a cat 🙀 that barfs on your blankets and rugs at the most inopportune times. (Again, like me lol)

    Thank you for this, I've seen the portable laundry machines but wasn't sure if they were something we should invest in. So far, we've been saving up our dirties or hand washing them with our bio soap body wash lol! I hope you didn't get in trouble for adding that pair of socks hahaha :-)

    What a great life. I'm a little jealous. It was a gorgeous day in the Bronx today and, I didn't want to come back inside to my apartment it was so beautiful out. Having an RV, you NEVER have to go inside (except to sleep, cook and poop :). Nice!
    And, thanks for the demo. I'll be getting my EcoSpin in a few days. Can't wait to wash clothes now. (What? Did I say that?) heh.
    Anyhow, all the best to you and your wife. Lovely picture of you both.

      Thank you for the comment - Life in Serenity. I think that it could be useful while boondocking, especially to save water. It will hold and effectively wash 4.7 pounds of laundry. I'm not going to remove our double stack washer and dryer any time soon, but I think these have a place for serious boondockers.

      Willa Barnes if you watch the end of the video again, I mentioned 30% off on the EcoSpin and 10% off on the EcoWash. I never mentioned $30. I don’t set the prices or the discount. The manufacturer of the devices does. Thank you for watching.

    Wow. Not a good invention at all IMO. So much time, effort and water to wash a few small things not to mention storing those contraptions. It would be much quicker and easier to wash and rinse items like that in the sink.
