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)

    • Top 10 Prepper Purchase
Color: White
I purchased my Wonder Wash back in 2022. It's a great gadget for light washing when going to the laundromat isn't an option. It can also be a blessing during extended power outages since it's completely manual (no electricity required!). TIPS: (1) I have learned to be careful turning the handle. The handle arm is sturdy (as long as you don't overfill the basket) but the knob feels a bit wonky, like it can break after a while. That's what I make a conscious effort to apply more pressure to the arm instead of the knob when turning. (2) After rinsing your clothes, run fresh water through the washer to get rid of soap residue and let the drum air dry upside down. This keeps funky odors and mold from building up. (3) The Wonder Wash cleans clothes under pressure. Please do not try to force the lid off at the end of a cycle. Allow the water to drain & pressure to release first. With proper care, the Wonder Wash will last for years. However, keep the 3 year warranty in mind, just in case. ... show more

    • cleanest clothes ever! FIVE YEARS RUNNING!! See Preface...
Color: White
5-year PREFACE: In January of 2020, I will pass the 5 years of usage point. This Wonderwash is still one of the greatest purchases I have ever made. If you read past the preface, you get the entire story. I wrote my first review after 1 month followed by an Addendum after 1 year. I thought I should come back to give this update... I'm still cranking & my clothes need less detergent to get clean. At some point, between 1 & 5 years, my rinse water started running clear after the detergent removed the dirt. I don't ever need to wash twice now; nor do I need to soak as much. I generally do let the detergent & softener rest for about 10 minutes then crank for 1 more minute. However, I'm no longer dealing with old stains & buildup so my clothes are cleaner. Bonus: they look better too... like new again. I love my Wonderwash!!! ONE MONTH REVIEW: Stains are fading! I've been using it for approximately 1 month now and I've noticed the stains in my dishcloths and cloth napkins are fading away! My clothes seemed to be looking better but I thought it was my imagination until I noticed & watched those specific stains. I guess it's the smaller loads or something? Whatever! It works better than the standard washer I was using... And it's Eco-friendly! Win-win! If you were wondering about ease of use... Be sure to measure the water, per the instructions, and away you go. I do switch arms to keep the workout balanced... Generally, 2-3 loads each day I do laundry; alternating arms by day, not load. Once you get it going it's 100% aerobic...but EASY! The water gets flowing & it is almost self-propelled; if you feel like you are struggling you have too much water or clothing... Or you didn't get it going fast enough, crank faster. Once you get the speed right, the water seems to do most of the work. Just remember not to smash the clothes in too tight and you should be fine. [When you drain the water, if the clothes fill more than half of the washer... you got too many clothes in there!] As for drying, I use the Nina Spin Dryer - also from The Laundry Alternative. They are a perfect match. By the time I finish another load in the Wonder Washer, letting it drain for a while between cycles, the prior load is almost done hang-drying. I let the rinse drain until the first load dries, then I spin dry and hang. It makes the process almost relaxing. A friend stopped by while I was washing & was amazed that things hang dry as fast as his big electric dryer can dry things. He was also amazed at how much fit inside the washer...looks can deceive. ADDENDUM: Now that I have used the washer for a year, let me just say that my clothes like the gentle treatment! Stains don't last, fabrics have smoothed out, and the things I have purchased since buying it still look like new... it's like a front-load washer only MORE gentle! I see that they have updated the lid, which I think is a great idea. The first time my daughter used mine she didn't get it closed all the way cuz my old style lid requires many turns to tighten/seal it... she spilled water everywhere. But just once! I have oiled it once but it is squeaking here & there so I will probably have to oil it again soon... making oiling necessary about twice a year. I haven't had to replace any parts but they are all available from The Laundry Alternative. It was super easy to put together [when it arrived] and replacing parts that break instead of buying an entire washer is another bonus. I have to admit, I do 3 cycles most of the time. I do the detergent cycle, a white vinegar cycle, and end with a softener cycle. I crank each cycle for the 2 minutes they recommend for washing. I count 120 cranks; as the cranks take about 1 second each. That's 6 minutes of cranking per load. [Super dirty stuff gets extra rinse water thrown in WHILE DRAINING & comes out clean.] I also alternate forward & backward cranking, not just left & right arms, & my arms look GREAT! Just thought I would throw that in. I should add that I am enjoying the exercise factor. It has gotten so easy to crank that I love doing laundry! I also find that the rest of my body benefits from the isometric exercise; holding the rest of my body still while cranking has toned me from head to toe...And my clothes look great on my toned self; more bonuses!!! One year later, still cranking & loving it!!! ^_^ ... show more

    • Modified use that works better
Color: White
Having a humongous vintage claw tub original to the house have had no issue using the tub for the washer. My original review is still true BUT have a cool modification that eliminates the need for the tube use to drain. Is WAY quicker. Me, pop the lid off. Tip the Wonder Washer upside down. Toward the tub wall. Move the crank so the hole full of clothes doesn’t create a vacuum. Which happened to me. So, not all water flows out. Once the water has quickly drained refill for a rinse cycle. Sometimes do this twice. If there’s soap bubbles. Depending on how dirty the clothing is. I’m an avid community gardener will do a wash and soak overnight. Drain the filthy water. Fill. Swish. Drain. Then do a fill and rotate multiple times. Leave until later. You can tell by the water if there’s soap or dirt. Makes me happy. Better than a mechanical machine that’ll break down. For whites, look up Mrs. Stewart’s Liquid Bluing Whitening Whites. Then search for Rajiv Surendra video on YT. He shows how to use it for a demo or just follow the directions. Your whites will return to their original pristine glory following a good wash. Also, like this machine to soak in a little bit of bleach as needed. Plus, easy to modify for those must use cold water items. Because the claw tub has a vintage telephone style hose installed it’s super easy to fill the washer. I’ve had little things like, the plastic covers to the screws pop off. Still not sure where one of the rings went. Made one with wire. If I need to do a humongous item can either go to the VA laundry that’s free for veterans or have been known to use the huge tub to get a proper soaking if needed. For this instance to drain pop onto two office sized black plastic trash buckets. Easy peasy drain by morning. Then, drier. I’ve decided despite the few things I don’t like this is my favorite wash method. I’ve used five gallon buckets with the hand swisher. Which are okay. But this machine rotation two ways and easy of draining out the opening makes me wanna get a second machine to do two loads at once. They fit side by side with handle toward the side I get in on. Used a measuring tape. Never need to worry will the mechanical machine costing more and more designed to work fewer and few years … ever be worth owning again? Nope. I know when there’s a few people living in the house electric machine are worth it. But, think about owning two of these. Or, using a combo system. I began starting a load that required a little bit of soaking in a five gallon bucket. Then, when this machine is free for a new load transferred this other to finish off. So many options. Amazon sometimes deletes reviews if I include other product into. So, you’ll have to search for the handled agitator if ya wanna give a five gallon bucket a wire. If ya flip a bucket upside down can stack the clothing soaked on top and leave overnight. They’ll drain all water this way. Be damp dry by morning for hanging or a dryer. I do enjoy having a drier to speed up and help soften cloths. But often finish off on a basement line. Hope the ideas are helpful for anyone who enjoys creative solutions to managing a household. For the money not being spent on a machine invest some and save the rest for renovations or other needs. The last washing machine lasted two years before the drum wouldn’t work correct and by year three it died. For that kinda money it wasn’t worth fixing and by the time the service plan is paid for could by another less expensive option machine. Or, go with a gem like this Wonder Wash. Hope this update review with a few extras based on my experience is helpful to those seeking solutions. Whether home or RV use. WonderWash could work for you. /\ update Works great. Wondered how long the gasket will hold up with the tube used to release water. Dozen uses and it drips. This said, using in the bathtub and letting soak upside down works great. But the durability of the tube entrance doesn’t appear durable ... show more
