Giantex Portable Mini Compact Twin Tub Washing Machine 20lbs Washer Spain Spinner Portable Washing Machine, Blue+ White

I love these washers! But the Durability is just not there for long turn uses I've had two of these over the years and they have worked great in a pinch. they wash better than most full-size washers I've seen/used. the design isn't bad, but the plastic is a little on the cheaper side. Where this product fails is in the washer motor the agitation is fine and the sin rate is okay but if you put any heavy clothes in it can't handle the load over time. when I had one at my apartment, we just use it for if we needed something washed fast for next day wear. But I got a new one when I got my camper and i was washing more. it worked well for about a year washing every other day and then the motor went out. The price point is good and if not seeing a lot of uses it'll last my first one lasted two years.

Day One! (August 2025) Packaged well, although a few tears in outside carton (took pictures). I spent many hours (days) looking at every "manual" "portable" small washing machine (Amazon, Home Depot, Walmart, etc). Read all the one/two star bad reviews. Discounted those low-star reviews if it pertained to damaged packaging, bad delivery, leaky/broken hoses, or hoses that don't fit U.S. plumbing, etc. Not anything I care about. Just functionality. This machine on day one with a smallish test load (2 pair of men's 2XL sweatpants and one t-shirt) outside on slightly 2-degree concrete slope (think driveway that dips out to street), REALLY washed the clothes. Could have put more in, had to test the amount of clothes and water needed. Several observations: (1) one Tide pod is WAY too much soap, (2) water does splash a lot, because of slight downhill slope to concrete, the washer "wiggled", so didn't level it properly, (3) doesn't remove some cat hair (have 2 long-haired Ragdoll cats, and my brand-new Whirlpool washer doesn't do better), (4) there was a very small leak underneath and will have to see what the problem is, (5) haven't figured out how to get the filter out and clean yet, (6) the washer agitation and "dryer" spin are really good, (7) Read the 4/5-star reviews from other people on how this washer operates -- toss the little tiny booklet that comes with it -- had to use a magnifying glass to read some of the non-U.S. verbiage, (8) the water drained just fine on the concrete slope, just picked up one corner about 2 inches to see what else came out - not much, (9) AND MOST IMPORTANT TO ME -- this washer will NEVER be inside a home/dorm/apartment, etc. - only outside, and I can lift it when empty (82-year-old female). Don't believe the description that it will work inside an RV (trailer or motorhome - I've never seen an RV yet that would accommodate this inside unless in the shower - and I don't want to ruin the floor if it does leak or have to lift it in and out of the shower each time - I'll just leave it outside where we park for weeks at a time). Because we spend several months in the warmer southern states out in the desert with no hook-ups (i.e., retired seniors), I wanted a washer I could manually fill outside and drain. To fill, I will be using empty cat litter plastic jugs and draining on the nearby cactus and shrubs. I'll fill a lot of these jugs when we fill the RV tank in town. We hold 90 gallons in the tank and I can add some hot water in one jug, but usually wash in cold anyway. I've only done one smallish load, but the machine seems quite sturdy (although "rocks" when agitator is going) and drained okay. It will take one queen bed sheet at a time, and probably several more clothing items than the one load it did an hour ago. In case there were problems from the beginning, I didn't want to overload the washer on the first cycle. So far with just the one small load, I like it and for the several months we live in our motorhome, I won't have to haul clothes back and forth to a laundramat (wait for people to finish their laundry, get quarters, wait inside for a couple of hours, and sometimes get really dirty washers). Once we get to our southern destination (November 2025), and get set up, if there are any more concerns, I'll add to this review, but can't fault anything so far (other than small underside leak which I think is just coming from the hose hookup.

Well package, decent shipping time. Light enough for this senior to pickup. I put it in my bathtub just in case it leaks. As well as to fill it with my handheld shower. Washes clothes as it’s supposed, drains fine and the spinner side works really well. I run the spinner after washing before rinsing for 5 minutes. After rinsing I run it 10 minutes and items come out nearly dry. When spinning it does vibrate quite a bit. I ordered an anti vibration pad to put under it in hopes that it will dampen the noise. Doesn’t fit much so it’s a bit time consuming but it beats going to the public laundromat where you never know what people are washing. Thinking bodily fluids.YUCK

I'm impressed. This little machine packs a lot of power. I am happy to list both pros and con's of this machine. I've owned another brand (Panda) and model of this same type of machine. I bought it roughly a year ago to date and love it. It also gets clothes exceedingly clean and fresh, no spot or stain goes untouched. Even hard to get out grease spots from cars, etc. Both the Panda brand comparable machine and this Conway machine accomplish the objectives. With that being said, here are the Pros to owning this machine verses other similar compact twin tub washing machines. And verses regular sized standard machines 1. If used properly it does in fact save water. I've done a comparison to the amount of water used in my standard full size washing machine and this particular model of twin tub compact washer. Again, IF used properly, and you do not over load the machine,(which means a small load -roughly 1 pair heavy denim jeans, 2 cotton knit shirts some socks, 3-4 pair of boxer or panties, a couple of hand towels/ OR a lightweight sheet set & pillow cases/ OR 2 large bath towels, 2 hand towels & 2 wash cloths) you use roughly 6-7 gallons on each cycle. Compared to 15 gallons per cycle for similar sized small load in a regular full sized washer. By cycle I mean each stage of washing. The main wash cycle, then a refill after spinning (rinse/softener added), spin again, then the final rinse & spin. You have the option to rinse while spinning each spin cycle however I find you can opt that aspect out and the clothes are still rinsed properly. It saves on wear & tear on the spin motor. (they tend to burn out easily on these machines if over loaded or weighed down) *Total wash time can be narrowed down to 19-20 minutes if your cloths aren't heavily soiled. Breakdown on that time table is as follows: 5 minutes for wash cycles (drain while adding clothes to the spinner to save time, clothes will spin out fine even when drippy wet) 2 minutes on initial drain 2 minutes on spin cycle (heavy clothes will need maybe 3 minutes) 3 minutes on rinse refill - fabric softener added during this stage (when small load and with 6-7 gallons of water used) 2 minutes on second spin cycle 3 minutes on final rinse refill and cycle 2 minutes on final spin/ Then goes straight to clothes line or dryer depending on weather. 19-20 minutes total time. **Heavier loads, larger loads or loads that require soaking, or longer washing & spin cycles will of course, take longer. 2. Compared to other machines of comparable size/function others take longer to drain with the pump drain feature. This is a gravity drain which requires it to be elevated off the floor /surface & near a drain outlet to work properly. This can be accomplished by placing in a large full sized shower stall or tub in a bathroom, OR on a counter in the kitchen/laundry room then drain fed into a basin/sink. OR placed on a physical lift/sturdy flat wide object then placed near floor drainage in basement, etc. Simply switch to drain option and it does the work rather quickly. The Panda brand machine uses a motorized pump drain & can take quite awhile to actually pump out the water. Usually 10 minutes compared to the 3 minutes this Conway machine takes using gravity with no motor pump to break down or wear out (which happened to my panda machine which thankfully was under warranty) 3. You can do larger loads even though the wash basin & spin tub are smaller. This is due to the power of both the washer & spin motors. I've washed 4 bath towels, 4 hand towels 4 wash cloths at once, they all got clean. I've washed a full king sized heavy jersey knit sheet set, it came out fine, highest water level used (10 gallons). Still a water saver compared to a standard regular sized machine. Times for each cycle & spin were slightly longer (roughly 2 mins added to each timer) with a normal full sized small load of clothes (5 knit tops, 4 pair of socks, a pair of lightweight pants, 3-4 pair underwear.) water was filled to just bellow the lint filter top and run on the lowest setting for 15 mins. Everything came out clean & fine. I've read in comments that people have difficulty with some clothes coming out torn. I've never had this happen on either machines of this kind. don't over load your clothing or add delicate fabrics like thin knits and silks or light weight fabrics to the machine on a heavy load and not enough water, and set your delicate fabrics to soft cycles and you should be fine. I've washed my satin nightgowns, lace panties, or dress slacks for my boy & husband several times and it's all in tact. Read your labels on your clothing & use common sense and you will be fine. Ok so the cons: 1. If you aren't able to stay focused on just doing the laundry at each interval it can be longer to do a single load given each phase of the load requires manual exchange from washer tub to spin tub & back again. 2. You have to e mindful of the water filling the basin. It is manual. You can choose to hook up the hose to a water source and fill it OR opt to use buckets, gallons, ect to fill it by hand but that's a bit more time consuming and lots heavy lifting. I opted to hook it up to my bathroom shower outlet by unscrewing the shower head and using a small o-ring to tighten the hose to the pipe itself. A simple flat head screw driver (or butter knife if you're lacking a flat head screwdriver) then tighten it so there are no leaks. I used the rubber bulb (top) of a turkey baster with a cross slit cut into the rounded top side and attached it to the faucet with the panda machine hose. However the hose on this machine is slightly more narrow/smaller and wont fit the same.. It's a bit DIY depending on your water outlet/faucet/ pipes, hose, etc. but nothing complex. I recommend using a timer set on your mobile phone or a dial timer to set each fill basin so you don't have an overflow problem. (I found this out the hard way when I didn't realize this machine would not automatically shut off the water fill like my regular machine) So a timer helps..ALOT. 3. If you're looking for a quiet machine that makes little to no noise or expect that there will be no water touching your skin, ever OR if you're looking for large capacity or little effort in doing laundry, this is probably NOT the machine for you. If you're into saving water, your time is valuable , and you just like really clean clothes that can be done in a simple efficient machine that may make a little normal racket from time to time on a spin cycle winding down, or you need a decent good machine for a small space then this is your dream come true. TIPS: I use HC friendly laundry pods (specifically Gain Pods). One pod for each load gets everything really clean & fresh without too many suds. I use Oxi Powder (3 tablespoons for 6-7 gallons of water, 1/3 cup for anything over 7 gallons water) This helps to deodorize, sanitize and is a color safe "bleach" without using harsh chlorine that also wears down the thin plastic hoses quicker. I also place my washer on heavy grade plastic cube crates tied together with zipties to keep them stable and together to elevate it for the gravity fed drain then place it in the tub in the bathroom. The water doesnt splash on the floor & the drain water goes right into the tub & down the drain, no fuss no mess. Any leaking it may or may not have ( I personally have not experienced any leaking with mine but some customers have said this can be an issue for them) is not a worry since everything is contained in the tub/stall. The electrical plug obviously goes outside the tub & up away from the water source. A small watt appropriate extension cord can be helpful in keeping everything dry & helps if you need more length in the cord to reach an outlet. Be mindful of the wattage that your outlet cranks out so you don't blow a circuit running the machine in the bathroom on a circuit not meant for that kind of motor/ampwattage(this has not been an issue for me, just wanted to include it) All in all this is a great machine. Very efficient. Since I now own 2 of these types of machines for the price of one standard full sized machine my clothes have never been cleaner.and is a huge time saver for me to be able to do 2 separate loads of 2 different kinds at the same time. It's also space savvy for anyone in a tiny home, apartment, RV, Boathouse, or just a really space conscious person. It's light weight & can be reasonably lifted to store away. This is a lighter machine than the other brands of comparable capacity, function & size. significantly lighter in weight than my Panda machine of comparable size. I also recommend getting the warranty on it. For the price, it's a good safety measure to have in the event any mechanical issues or parts are faulty. The customer service is friendly and helpful if you are also friendly and polite.

I bought this machine about three and a half years ago. I do my laudry every week and that includes queen sized bedding and smaller blankets. I even do my bath robe a fuzzy housecoat. I have used this from the day I pulled it out if the box and it still performs like it did on day one. The washer side really beats the clothes clean and can handle a single person's weekly attire easily. Socks and underwear are a load, up to approx eight t-shirts, I usually do two hoodies or sweats together as a load. The spinner is something taken from a NASA lab. It's a damned centrifuge. It really spins and gets about 85% of the water out. After that I hang them for about an hour or two and they're compley dry. I have a small apartment so the size is perfect. I put it in my shower and drain it right there. It's super light, which is good because I'm terminal and loosing strength every day. Easy to run, light, cleans clothes well, has worked every weekend for three and a half years. This thing paid for itself in three months if I had to go to the laudry mat. It owes me nothing and I would buy another if it ever crapped out.

What I liked: it’s actually light and compact. It has a hose for the kitchen sink or bathroom sink but you need an adapter, I didn’t buy it but I just put it in the bathtub and filled it with the shower head (I have a long one) and it takes 3-5 mins to fill up. I add the detergent (I use TruEarth strips) or mainly for baby clothes to clean. I think that overall I would like to have a dryer option cause in the winter I can’t set a whole bunch of clothes quickly if I have to hang to dry - plus it’s winter now so I can’t use that, the clothes will be really hard haha. If you don’t mind that, and you want to save money on the dryer than this will definitely benefit you because the clothes water wringer works really good honestly. It’s not really loud either, likes average noise. And yes, the emptying of the dirty water is easier in the bath tub. Also, don’t forget to clean the filter inside the wash portion of the machine - lint in there. Overall, 4/5 because I personally can’t wait for the clothes to dry out and I can’t find a place to store it in my apartment cause of all the other things I have (like baby toys etc) but I’d still high recommend it!

I like this product because it does wash more in each mode, seems bigger than my old portable washer. You need very little detergent, can likely get away with 1/2 tbsp or 1 tsp. Otherwise, the speed of agitation leaves it very foamy. If that happens, I can take items out and spin for a minute, put back in the washing side. NEVER RINSE CLOTHES IN THE SPIN SIDE. I wrecked two machines this way, floods the motor so it cannot drain. If you need a rinse, rinse in the washing side. I don't care what you see or hear. Also, good idea to give the motor a break and don't run on 15 mins all the time, 9 mins is good and 6 mins for softener or rinse cycle. If heavily stained, short cycles mixed with soaking will work very well. I usually start out at 9 mins, let soak for 30 mins and agitate couple more times for 5 mins while it soaks again. Pros are that this is a light machine, has strong agitation and lint catcher. I can wash a lot of cloths in there and can wash fleece bed blankets, I sleep on a full bed size. Blankets do agitate BUT you should make sure blankets drape over the side to allow draining and you would need a bigger spin dryer as this one does not spin bigger blankets. I have a larger Panda spin dryer that spins the blankets. Take care of the motor with breaks will make it last longer and never use water to rinse stuff in the spinner, just the wash side, should last quite a while. Couple of updates, I do not mind the speed of the washer, if washing clothes they are put in a mesh bag or done in my other washer, otherwise the fast agitation means I require less soap put in. I put probably 1/4 of the level one shown on the cap for my tide. Less than ideal was the fact that even with lint filters, the one that comes with the machine and a couple of the floating ones, quite a bit of gunk went down the drain causing a couple of days of agressive plunging. Other issue with the filter in the machine, the mesh is coming unattached from the machine. I have stitched up the mesh and stitched to the holder and clipped back in. Going to keep water mostly below the machine's lint filter and rely on floating lint filters, I have attached zipties to reinforce the floating lint filters and they work fine as the foam head likes to fall off without all the reinforcement. Will also get something to collect the gunk at end of hose. I also keep drain more clear with hot but not boiling water.

Let me start off by saying this thing does NOT supply heat - the dryer works by spinning. Additionally, anything thats high in lint WILL fill the lint trap faster, and get lint on your other clothes. You may not want to use brand new linty filled fabrics in this thing, do a few loads in a normal machine first to get some of it off, perhaps. I have been using this for my baby's clothes and linens and it's been a game changer. I don't worry about others' toxic detergents building up on her stuff and it hangs to dry fairly quickly. I have yet to use cloth diapers with this, but I already know the spin dryer will work well - you can turn cloth diapers inside out and have the waterproof lining inwards, so the spin cycle will pull out water and excess debris. This machine also gets stains out pretty well. BUT BE WARNED - if you presoaked something to get stains out, like with dish detergent and oil on clothes - rinse it out well before putting it in here. Even a tablespoon of soap is almost too much for this machine, so go easy on the soap. IDK if this happened with others, but my water inlet on one side was blocked, so when I went to use it, water splashed up and went all over the top of the machine - bad because there's wires underneath that section! Double check that water is able to flow with a funnel and a cup or something before attempting to jet water through the inlet. Due to my defect, they refunded me so I could replace the mini hose inside the part, so their customer service is pretty good, too. Is this a perfect machine? No. Is this a pretty great machine? Yes. I recommend for those with babies and communal laundry facilities.

this little machine is great for small spaces. However, I’m in the process of returning it and getting my money back simply because the dryer does not dry your clothes at all. I live in a one bedroom apartment with a very small bathroom. There is nowhere for me to hang dry my clothes and drying them outside is not an option seeing as I live in one of the coldest cities in Canada. The machine does an amazing job at washing the clothes and getting out all the grime, but when it comes to drying it sucks. The max time that you can set on the dryer it’s five minutes. I’ve never had clothes dry for five minutes and come out even somewhat damp. My clothes were soaked. Even after I had continuously reset the five minute timer over a span of 45 minutes, my clothes were still wet. I’m really hoping that my return goes through otherwise I’m out $270. Another thing I’ll mention is that The plug is extremely short and I needed to use an extension cord in order to have it sit in my bathtub while it was doing its thing. One last thing, mine came damaged at the back but thankfully it didn’t affect the washer. it also leaks if you try to move it at all while there is still water in the washer. I highly suggest looking for a different washer/dryer of this kind unless you live somewhere where you can hang dry your clothes.
