Description

If you’re looking for a highly portable, hand operated washing machine that’s economical, eco friendly and leaves your clothes sparkling clean, Then the amazing Wonde rWash™ is just what you need. Cleans laundry in 1 to 2 minutes Pays for itself within 60 days. Fully portable, no hookup required Gentler on clothes. Ideal for delicates Brand new, patent-pending lid snaps on and off in one motion A hand-powered, portable washer that can clean your clothes in a flash, the revolutionary WonderWash® is the next generation in green, cleaner laundry alternatives. And thanks to its compact design, it’s an ideal laundry solution for apartments, campers, single people, RV's, mobile homes, cabins, and anyone who frequently washes small loads. Weighing in at under 6 lbs., pound for pound this hand crank washing machine has a much larger capacity than anything else on the market, when you consider electric washers can weigh up to 50 lbs. and take up much more space.  Why pay more to go Green? Unlike many overpriced eco-friendly products, The Wonder Wash™ is great value and not prohibitively priced. Which is how it should be, seeing as you’ll be doing the right thing and reducing your footprint on the environment. For your convenience, we also carry extra parts like replacement Wonder Wash™ machine lids. Due to its great value price tag, and impressive wash capabilities, this fantastic little machine will pay for itself within two months of arrival. And when you add to this that there’s no need for any more trips to the laundry, and you could realistically save thousands over the life of the machine, while doing your bit for the planet. The gentler way to clean clothes: The WonderWash’s™ design means it’s much gentler on clothes, and unlike some electric mini washers, does not have an agitator that can snag, tear and rip your clothes. As a result your favourite wardrobe items will retain their look and feel – and last you longer! Invented out of necessity: The Wonder Wash™  portable washer was invented in South Africa many years ago as a practical product for large, low-income households lacking access to running water and electricity, and who wanted a gentler alternative to frequent hand washing. Not only did they have to lug water long distances. As the hand-powered washing machine uses 90% less water than regular washing machines, it was the perfect solution. Built to last: With no motor or internal moving parts, The Wonder Wash™ is designed to last much longer than the average electric washing machines. All our products come with a 3 year warranty because we really do have your best interest at heart. So how big is it? Dimensions: 12" x 12" x 16" Washing capacity: 7-8 dress shirts/ 10 T-shirts/ 2 pairs of jeans (Assembly is needed)

    • Impressive across the board - Four years later update!

Four years later and I've bought two more of these to give to travel nurse friends as gifts! It's small, lightweight, an the drum holds detergent, softener, and Lysol laundry sanitizer when I transport it. I'm still cranking my washing when I rent a place with no washer and dryer, and still delighted. I hand wring everything still, and have upgraded from rope in a closet to a collapsible clothes tree I spotted at a big box store. See the latest picture. That way, I can dry outside if the weather is compatible, but easy enough o do inside as well. I figure the Wonder Wash has saved me about 80 trips to a laundromat. Fantastic! ------------------------------------- Holy wonderful washing unit! I really cannot tell you how impressed I am, but I am sure going to try. I've had the Wonderwash for about a week now and I've done laundry every other day. It's so quick and easy that I start it while waiting for my coffee to brew, let it drain while I make breakfast, do a rinse run while my eggs finish cooking, plate up my food while it drains, rinse one more time, and eat my meal while it drains the final time. It doesn't even need that final rinse, I'm just picky. It is absolutely perfect for my scrubs. I can wash and hang a couple of uniforms every couple of days and never run out again. No more waiting for the laundry room in my apartment to have a free machine. I've converted a closet into a make shift drying area with dollarstore plastic drop cloth, clothesline, and clothespins. This machine has successfully washed scrubs, delicate, jeans, workout clothes, towels, sheets, and tonight I ran my tennis shoes through it! The absolute success of it, across the board, has me writing this review while it drains. The machine is almost entirely plastic so it is super light weight. It snaps together easily for use. It uses very little water and detergent. Best of all, it really cleans. When not in use, I wipe the drum dry and stash it in the same closet I use to hang clothes. This is a must have for travel nurses. No more hunting for open laundromats at 2am, or checking the facilities machines every hour hoping to get some laundry done. I see this being great for camping too. I can't wait to take it on a trip. For now, it certainly sees enough use. Love love love this. TIPS AND TRICKS (Because I can find a dozen reviews and very little advice) °Add water and soap before clothes. Keep a hand towel nearby for inevitable dribbles. °If using hot water, pressure builds up (that's a feature, not a bug!) and sometimes the lid will start to leak. After a few turns, release the lid, lock it back down, and keep going. You may have to do this a couple times based upon how hot the water is. °This is where that hand towel comes in. Give the drum a quick wipe to reduce splatter. °Use a permanent marker to indicate the grooves on the drainage tube (see picture). This saves you the messy fumble of trying to line it up while water leaks everywhere. °Use less water to rinse than you did to wash. The clothes are already wet, and too much water causes the unit to wobble and thud loudly when it is turned. I have found that my rinse cycles take about half the water of my wash cycle. °Wash with hot and rinse with cold to save the "lid dribbles" when you don't need them! I rinse twice. After my wash, I add a spoonful of fabric softener to the first rinse, and plain water to my second. My clothes smell fantastic. °If you are line or coat-hanger-drying indoors, set up a fan to decrease your drying time exponentially. Also, it makes the whole room smell like clean laundry which is awesome! °Worried you're not rinsing out all the soap? With dry hands, rub your washed clothes between your fingers and then rub your fingers together. If they feel slippery rather than just wet, rinse again. And stop using so much soap, jeez. Hope that helps. ... show more

    • What a great little machine.
Color: White
I live in a smallish apartment that doesn't have washer dryer hookups and shares laundry facilities with the other tenants. It's been a decent setup but they have been steadily increasing the price of the machines over time. On top of that I live around a bunch of college aged people that tend to forget when their clothes are in the machines or take up all of them at once. Those sorts of fun times with shared machines. I've always debated buying a small apartment friendly washing machine but put it off. Then when all the machines were taken out by water damage it made the decision for me. I got this machine because it doesn't require a water connection, it doesn't require power, and it is a simple spinner so there's no concern about maintenance. This fits into both my current situation and in a power outage or other situation I'll still have a way to wash clothes. Assembly was a piece of cake although as others have stated the little caps that go into the legs are a little awkward to fit. Start from the bottom and work your way up and it'll be easier to lock them in. However they do tend to pop out randomly during use so keep your eyes open. This little thing has already paid for itself and has saved me so much time and money. It does a good enough job washing clothes. You'll still need to pre treat stains and what not and it'll take some time to adjust the water / soap ratio so you're able to properly rinse the clothes out without having to do multiple rinse cycles. But once you get the feel for it this thing is amazingly efficient and easy to use. Note that your clothes will come out sopping wet so it's not a bad investment to also get a spin dryer (which this same company also sells that also works great). Pair these two up with a clothes rack from IKEA and I've got a great little home washing and drying system. ... show more
