3.0 Cu. Ft. Portable Washer, 26.5 lb. Capacity Washing Machine, 6 Cycles, Quick Connect Sink Adapter and Drain Hose Included, Transparent Lid & LED Display, BPW30MW, White

I can't believe I didn't review this. Amazon delivered without any issues. It works very well and it's really quiet, very easy to set up. I have it set up permanently. What's even more impressive is the customer service from the company. The directions said the hose should be in the kit but I didn't see it so I called. They answered and the man was so gentle, didn't even require much and they mailed me a replacement hose right away. Turns out the hose was already connected in the back. Their customer service is in NJ and they are very responsive. it's a really good machine and I feel the other reviews address how well it cleans so I won't go into that. It is also very easy to figure out how to program it. It looks small but it's bigger inside and deep and can handle a lot. Please keep making this.

I have had this washer for just over 2 months now and I am well pleased with it. I did my research on different washing machines (that can be used without hookups) beforehand and decided on this one in part because of the warranty and the brand. It works well, simply no issues there. The way it washes seems a little strange, as it will swish the clothes around for maybe 1-2 min, then stop for 1-2 min. It still washes my clothes well. It is smaller than a typical washing machine of course and can't hold as many clothes. The spin cycle gets them dry enough that when I leave them on a drying rack indoors, they dry usually in about 24 hrs. It is not that loud, although that wouldn't really be an issue. You can hear the water swish in the machine, you can hear the sink when its filling with water, you can hear water rushing out when it drains, and you can hear the motor working to make the clothes move, although I'd say that's the same noise level as the water swishing as the clothes move. I live in a pretty small apartment with no hookups and wanted to save money from not going to the laundromat and I wanted the comfort of doing laundry in my own home. I fully recommend this machine. I have already saved more money than I would have spent at the laundromat. My setup has my washer in the bathroom with the inlet hose connected to the sink and the drain hose also draining into the same sink. I have them connected with a rubber band so the drain hose stays in place. Figuring out how to attach the inlet hose to a sink took a little while, but I had to take the water aerator off the bathroom sink and then it was able to attach with the attachment it came with. There are issues people have mentioned that I would like to address. Someone said the spin cycle on normal is set to 55 min and it seems to be a mistake in the programming. Mine initially said this too, but after my first use, it now says 5 or 9 min, depending on the cycle. Other people have mentioned that the washer will start draining water out of the drain hose before the water level is filled up enough, or if you use a bucket. I believe the issue there is the drain hose is not elevated high enough. It seems kind of weird, but if the drain hose is only raised high enough to drain into the bathtub for example, I had the same issue where the water would start draining before it filled to halfway (or if I added more from a bucket). Then, I raised my drain hose higher to drain into the bathroom sink, which is just about the same height as the washer, and now it fills almost to the brim and doesn't drain water prematurely. The manual says the drain hose needs to be elevated to about 34 inches high for this reason I'm sure. In case people don't read the manual or notice, there is a little filter on the inside wall of the washer which needs to be cleaned about every 10 washes or once a week or something like that. Its a little net that fills with lint and is very easy to clean.

So I specifically bought this to bucket fill… I live off grid and don’t have any water source to directly hook it to. I have also had the Japanese style ones where there’s a wash cycle on one side and a spin on the other and they’re AWFUL. This is much much better. I had seen a couple reviews stating that they bucket fill this one, but not much info about water usage doing that or how it works, so here’s what I’ve learned so far (please note, this is for the largest model offered): The system seems to be weight based. Given that it’s hooked up to nothing I can hear the intake pump running at the beginning of a cycle. This will continue until the unit has enough water in it, but how does it know? I played around a lot and decided it’s gotta be weight based, which correlates with the size of load you’re running. So, I put my wash settings on “normal”, change the load size to small, add about 8 gallons of water + the drum 3/4 filled with clothes will get it to start. You’ll see the time for the wash drop from 37 minutes to 34 as soon as it’s got enough water. The cycle size you choose will affect how much water it wants, so I always choose “small” for size and this cuts down on how much water I use. The same thing happens on the rinse cycle. It drains the water from the wash cycle and wants another 8 gallons to do the rinse cycle. At this point it really depends what I’m washing if I choose to do this or not. I have a geriatric dog that makes a whole lot of laundry throughout the week, and for those items I don’t really worry about the rinse cycle. I’ll let the system run through the beginning of the rinse cycle where it is draining most of the wash water off, pause the program, turn the washer off and back on, and then put it on the “spin only” cycle. This cycle is automatically 27 minutes but I usually run it for about 10 and then stop it again. I use those little $3 Walmart micro fleece blankets for him and after 10 minutes in spin only they come out almost completely dry and smelling super fresh. I’ll hang them on a rack in front of a box fan and they’re bone dry within an hour. I also have a regular household pillow for him as a dog bed and that will spin out and dry super fast (2-3 hours) with the same method. This machine will hold two of the fleece blankets and the pillow at the same time, and get everything very clean on the normal cycle, small size. For my clothes I do want a rinse cycle so when the washer changes from wash to rinse I’ll let it drain the wash water, add another 8 gallons, and let the rinse cycle run. The main thing I listen for is if the inlet pump is trying to run. If it is, add more water. You’ll have to pause the system every time you’re adding more water or you’ll get an “E3” error, which just means the lid is open. So, all in all, it is kind of hands on if you’re a bucket filler. It uses between 8-16 gallons of water on small cycle depending on if you want to do a rinse cycle. Based on other reviews I was cautious to have the drain inlet at the proper height. I drain it to my bathroom sink and it works great. If it’s too low it won’t hold water, too high and the pump isn’t strong enough to drain. The drain hose has a nice moveable gooseneck on it and the power of the pump has yet to be so strong it kicks the gooseneck out of the sink, which has been my biggest fear. Despite the hands on nature of it, I really love it. It took me about a week of use, using it 2-3x a day to where I felt really comfortable not just standing over it staring and learning the sounds it’s making to know when it needs my attention. Living in a small space I can just attend to it while I’m doing other chores and it doesn’t feel like a pain. This may depend on how much you hate the laundromat or how much access you have to one. There’s only one laundromat nearby but this woman runs a wash and fold out of it and will tie up all the machines until about 3 pm, and then the rest of the community has a mad dash to try to get their stuff in so it feels like sometimes there’s a laundromat nearby, but it’s a huge source of stress to try to time my day around it’s availability. Other pros: it is really really quiet. I’ll run it at night while my s/o is sleeping and it doesn’t bother them at all. Whether you use the rinse cycle or not everything comes out smelling incredibly fresh. If you want to soak anything, just put it all in with water, soak as long as you want, then run the cycle as you see fit. Will definitely be keeping.

I just moved into a new one-bedroom apartment with no in-unit laundry. The building has communal laundry machines on the bottom floor but I hate the idea of using dirty machines to clean my clothes, having to wait for clothes or running the risk that someone may steal it. Even just paying for each load can turn out to be expensive. So I knew I wanted to a portable washer, and a high-end one at that since my lease doesn’t allow portable washers. I needed something that was good quality and silent. This machine has proven to do exactly what I needed. Yes it was a little more than what I was hoping to spend - but the peace of mind it gives me is well worth it to me. I can run multiple loads, in the comfort of my own unit, at any given time, and not have to worry or spend any more additional money. The tub itself is pretty big. I purchased the 2.0 size and I can fit my queen bed sheets in there, as one single wash but it’s still nice to be able to do that. I also purchased an adjustable rolling dolley that I placed under the washing machine to sit on. The machine itself is quite heavy ranging from 50-65 lbs (I don’t have a scale) and it is a struggle to move it from its living location in my house to the kitchen sink. This tray makes this task mindless and super easy and convenient. Other than that, installation was very quick and easy. My first few loads have been a huge success and I am thrilled with my purchase.

Works great and can fit the same size load as my apartment shared laundry. Does an excellent job of cleaning my clothes, and as we have a little one, the flexibility of doing laundry in our apartment instead of going down 3 flights of stairs is a game changer. With the cost of doing laundry in my building, it should pay for itself in about a year

I’ve had this for a year. I am still as obsessed with it today as I was on day 1. I’m only writing a review to help people because there are so many options. I did a ton of research because I didn’t want anything too expensive but also didn’t want a cheap one. I landed on this one and I have zero regrets. It’s pretty quiet and we’re in a one bed apartment, cleans well and can clean all my clothes. I love it so much I sometimes just stand over it and watch the clothes whirl around getting cleaned. Also light enough to move around. 10/10 I would recommend.

Haré una reseña con funcionamiento o usos. Apenas la tengo por 3 días y ya la usé 7 veces. Eso sí, tardó casi un mes en enviarse (Amazon Internacional Standard) desde la fecha de compra. Aproximadamente 20 días. El envío sólo fue de 2 días. Las medidas de profundidad contando la manguera de desagüe es de 48cm, la medida de ancho con espacios laterales recomendados es de 45cm y la altura es de 78cm. Es decir, una ves que la abres y sacas de la caja, es muy bonita y da ternura por lo compacta. Pero esa es su ventaja. Las cargas habituales que realice fueron de : 15 boxers talla M, o 5 a 7 playeras talla M o G, o 2 pantalones de mezclilla talla 32. No la llenes a más de 3/4 de ropa seca. Detergente se recomienda usar los que tienen el logo "he" high efficiency (alta eficiencia). En mi caso recomiendo el detergente mexicano "Newen" de venta también en Amazon. Ya que es biodegradable y concentrado (alcanza a lavar bien con una a tres cucharadas 10 a 30ml) en lugar de los detergentes comerciales que usas tapas de más de 100ml. Aún así en las instrucciones se recomienda usar la mitad de lo que dicen los envases. En cuanto a ruido, es muy silenciosa incluso durante el centrifugado. Respecto a las conexiones, los aditamentos con los que viene, fueron suficientes para conectarla a la llave del lavabo. Viene con dos gomitas dentro de la conexión rápida. Dependiendo si es para rosca interna o externa se pone o se quita el empaque superior. La manguera del desagüe, TIENE QUE ESTAR POR ENCIMA DEL NIVEL DE AGUA DE LA LAVADORA, es decir, si la dejas en el suelo, jamás se va a llenar. Tiene varios modos de lavado. Únicamente el modo Pesado (Heavy), Gentil (Gentle) y Remojar (Soak) te dejan modificar todos los parámetros de lavado. El modo Normal y Rápido sólo permite cambiar nivel de agua y número de enjuagues. El lavado (Wash) se puede seleccionar hasta 20min, se pueden seleccionar hasta tres enjuagues (Rinse) y hasta 9min de centrifugado (Spin). Cualquiera de estos tres parámetros se pueden omitir al dejarlos en 0. El modo rápido tarda 15min y el modo más tardado 88/90min. El atrapa pelusa en verdad funciona. No tengo ninguna queja al respecto. Si acaso el tiempo de envío y el costo que se paga por importación (va incluído en el precio). Si esta lavadora se vendiera en México costaría $1,200 pesos menos es decir entre $5,500 a $6,100 pesos. Que bien lo valen. En verdad recomiendo la lavadora. Como extra les recomiendo comprar un codo a 90° para la manguera de llenado y quede más cómoda la conexión en la lavadora. Haré actualización al mes o 3 meses, a ver qué tal va. Ha pasado un mes, y todo funciona perfectamente, igual que el primer día. El modo de lavado "Pesado" es mi favorito, el cual personalizo en cada lavada. Recomiendo usar jabón Persil.

The machine can hold a significant amount of laundry for its size (15 pounds) - which is why I purchased this. It is notably good quality and smart looking so it does not look out of place outside of a closet, in the open, as pictured. That’s hard to find as most top loaders could not pull off a “nice looking” aesthetic. Spin cycle is great and leaves clothes very dry. It came with all necessary attachments to have this up and running in 5 minutes from opening the box. Well packaged and not a scratch on it when delivered (rurally, even). Really impressed with this machine so far! Would certainly recommend. If it holds up to time and usage I would recommend this machine based on specs as it currently outperforms anything in its size/weight capacity and I did a lot of research prior to purchase. Will update review if I note any unreasonable failures.
