Giantex Twin Tub Washing Machine: Compact and Portable for Small Spaces

Kelly: Je n’en pouvais plus de faire la lessive dans la buanderie de mon building, j’ai donc investi après plusieurs recherches pour des washing machine portative. Honnêtement je suis très agréablement surprise. Les vêtements sortent propres et le spin Time est d’une efficacité à toute épreuve. Le linge sort à 90 % quasiment sec. Le seul bémol le tuyau pour mettre l’eau dans la machine est d’une part court et n’est vraiment pas adapté à tous les faucets. Prévoir soit une pomme douche manuelle pour remplir ou la bonne vieille méthode du sceau.

toni maria: This machine works, better than expected. Very light weight. Read the other comments - the drain is an issue, as well as the short hoses and the need for a faucet adapter.

NoNameHere: This was a size and power upgrade compared to the smaller unit from a different company. If I'd reviewed this product shortly after buying it, it would have been 5 stars, easy. At first, I was really impressed with it. Still am, since I now have an impeller washer that doesn't do as good of a job as this one, IMO. This product washes clothes really clean and spins them out dry enough that it doesn't take long for them to dry in the compact dryer from the same company.

However, within a year, it started to leak. I thought it was the hose, but it's actually from the edge where the top meets the container. Basically, because the agitator is so powerful, it flings water around in the tub, and that water splashes against the edge and dribbles out. This could be avoided if the manufacturer wrapped the edge with some sort of sealant or a strip of plastic. Just anything to cover that line to prevent water leaking out. I also didn't like that it was a gravity drain at first, but I turned around and liked that feature. It drains pretty quickly and doesn't make a bunch of noise like a battery-powered drain does.

I still recommend the machine. Like I said, it's strong and washes...

Coralee: I live in a basement suite that has no washer or dryer. My brother and his wife are kind enough to let me bring laundry there to do but it's such a painful experience to get clothes ready to go and load the car. Then it's up a flight of stairs. And sometimes I just need to clean a few things right away. This washer is perfect for that. I was really disappointed with the hose attachment as it doesn't hook up to my tap without making some kind of attachment. And the drain hose doesn't drain unless it's flat. I was trying to figure that out as I don't have a bathtub and it came out of a bucket. But then a light bulb went off and I remembered that the bottom of my stairs outside had a drainage hole incase of rain. So voila I put the hose outside and left the door open enouugh not squish it. Then I put my clothes and a tide pod with water turned on the machine for 15mins came back and put clothes in the spinner with the hose changed to spin side to rinse and turned it on after a couple mins I turned off the water let the spinner do its thing until it stops. The clothes are practically dry so I hang them on the clothes dryer overnight and they are even cleaner than a regular washing...

Benny Asante: I purchased this portable washing machine almost a year ago, but it arrived with some minor damage. However, upon contacting the seller, they were kind enough to offer me a discount as compensation. I've been using this little machine regularly, about 4 times a week until it unfortunately stopped working just a week ago. The dryer/spin function still works perfectly, but it seems that the initial damage has finally taken its toll. Had it not been for the initial damage, I believe it would still be running smoothly. Despite this setback, I must say that this washing machine has been a great addition to my daily routine. I wish it can be fixed!!

Mine not Yours: I have had this for three years! I definitely recommend either to reduce trips to the laundromat, or in addition to one's regular washer to wash cloth diapers, cleaning rags, sandy beach clothes, stinky stuff, cuddle toys, or delicates. Bought one for my mom at the same time, which recently died. Ours still works. Uses a lot of water, but uses very little detergent. Spinner works better than any full size washer's spinner cycle that I've used, helping clothes dry quickly when hung up. The washer only drains when the dial is placed on drain, but the spinner drains continually so items can be spun while washing or while draining the washer. Use liquid fabric softener so clothes dry soft, without air-dry stiffness. Using a rubber band, attach a sock or pantyhose to the drain hose to catch lint.

Load capacity: Works best with two pairs of teen or adult sized jeans along with a handful of other clothes, or a couple of sheets, or two to three bath towels, or a small blanket, or a single pillow; basically, if you can fit it in the spinner or in a standard grocery bag, it'll wash well in this tub. Though it can wash twice as much, dividing the load in half to spin, I find that the...

RhenishRhenish: 5/21 Update, down from 4 stars. Sigh, the Assurant warranty plan won't 'kick' in as it's still under manufacturer's warranty. Guess who will not respond.

5/10 Still love the machine BUT guess what the motor has died (and after I just left an update barely a month ago. TSK TSK TSK). I turn it on and can hear the timer ticking away but it will not spin. Reached out to Assurant, as it is clearly beyond the 30-day window. The price has gone up since I purchased, but still within the insurance plan range. I fully expect them to let me simply order a replacement, but we shall see. If they don't I shall order another one and throw down with the insurance company. Like I said still love the machine, still think it's worth the money and deserves four stars, just go ahead and spend the extra $16 for the 3-year insurance plan.

4/7 Update:
OMG, okay since I spent the first 8 months using with a garden hose I never realized what the purpose of the two intake areas was for. I naively thought you attached the hose to whichever side was closest to your faucet. Nope. The one on the washer side is to fill the tub, the one on the spinner side shoots water into there. This means that...
