We live on a boat and are currently in Portugal. Good Ideas sent the machine to us and we are very grateful. It is smaller than the old original twin tubs, but for the price, this is a proper washing machine. Your clothes will be clean and when spun they will dry quickly as the water has been whisked away. Prior to this we were hand washing which is not ideal and hand wringing the washing before hanging it up to dry. This is a real pain, especially with fleeces and large sheets. Now the spin drier does the wringing, more quickly and better than we could.
It may not be love but this little 13kg machine is fantastic. It really agitates the clothes during the wash cycle and 3.5kg is a largish load, when many of the cheaper automatics only do 6kg. With the spinner and washer on its only using 300watts, which is great if you are on the move and have a small generator. Are there any bad points, only the lightweight and pretty cheap hoses. They are fit for purpose, just, but their longevity remains to be seen. In conclusion, for the money, this is a steal. PS It also comes with wash balls for 600 washes. We might never need to buy detergent again. Well done Good Ideas!
