Auertech Portable Washing Machine, 28lbs Twin Tub Washer Mini Compact Laundry Machine with Drain Pump, Semi-automatic 18lbs Washer 10lbs Spinner Combo for Dorms, Apartments, RVs

I honestly don't know why I didn't purchase this washing machine sooner. If you don't have much space or access to a laundry facility then this is for you. It comes already assembled and the size is perfect. We use it daily doing multiple loads. The appearance is nice in my opinion, you don't need to use much laundry detergent or bleach as you would when washing at the laundromat. It has a lint filter also, the spin cycle works great no lingering water left at all. Just hang your items to dry or put them in your dryer if you have one. This is a must have if you're like me and you hate making trips to the and spending extra money to do laundry. The only thing that can't be washed in this machine is our big comforters, other than that this machine is perfect. The spinner is small but just balance everything and place the little plastic holder on top to keep clothes from spilling out and the machine does the rest. This washing machine and spinner pays for itself, space saver, money saving while cleaning your clothes like the big washing machines at the laundromat.

So far I’ve washed two loads, and I love this little machine. I live in a studio apartment without washer/dryer hookups, and this fits perfectly into my small space. I have it right outside my bathroom door, and I’m able to fill it with the shower head, and the water outlet tube easily reaches the shower drain. Couple years ago I had a simpler model of this machine when I lived in an RV in southern Arizona for a few years, and this one is a little bit larger and more powerful. In Arizona I naturally didn’t need a dryer, soon as I was finished hanging up my clothes on the line they’d already be dry. Now I live on the beach in the PNW, year round heavy humidity! So I already have a small dryer, and I had been handwashing my clothes for the two years since I moved here. I feel silly for not buying this machine much sooner! The spinner works GREAT! It spins out more moisture than the fancy machines at the laundromat - definitely didn’t expect that! So when I toss them in the mini doll sized dryer, they get dry in a flash. It’s also great that you only have to use a very SMALL amount of detergent. I see a recent reviewer framed this as a “con”, but I consider it a very solid “pro”. Detergent is expensive, and traditional washers use way too much water and detergent than what is necessary. This set up is easier on your wallet, and the environment. It’s definitely a “pro” that you’ll be using half as much soap, half as many of those heavy plastic jugs that take hundreds of years to decompose and choke marine life. Operating this machine with knowing how much you can load it up will come much easier to folks who are used to hand washing their laundry for years, those who are spoiled by tech machinery will struggle more! And that’s because you need to use your own natural judgement and common sense, and rely much less on “directions” from whatever products you’re using to wash your laundry.

I have trialed and errored this thing for 9 months so you wont have to! If you are on the fence about getting one of these washers I suggest you look them up on tiktok - you will find alot of brands and reviews. I ultimately chose this one because of its larger size AND because it has a drain pump to help push the water out (some of them only drain by gravity) First I'll start with the tricks I've learned that make this thing much easier to use SHOWER HEAD - the little hose it comes with is okay, but it takes around 10 minutes to fill up that way and getting it to stay on the sink without falling off or leaking is a pain. Getting a deatchable shower heard cut fill time to about 4 minutes. DRAIN HOSE - FIRST - its probably better to drain it in the toilet due to the amount of lint that drains out with the dirty water. If not, make sure you have a hair catcher or something over your drain so you can stop the excess lint going down the tub drain. I clogged my drain a couple times before I learned this less. i ALSO didnt realize until about a month ago that you can turn the washer over and move the drain hose from the right to the left side depending on where you want to drain it. So for a while I was moving it back and forth to fill it and drain it, but now I've got that figured out. EXTENSION CORD - the cord on this is pretty short so an extension cord will probably be neccesary. SHOWER ROD and BOX FAX - get a second shower rod and hang your clothes there, set up a box fan to speed up drying. If you get a drying rack, use it for small things or you will run out of room fast. Now the actual review - I freaking love this little washer. You do have to kind of "babysit" it - meaning you have to manually fit it up, run it for 15 minutes, drain it, manually fill it up and run it again to rinse the clothes, drain it, then manually spin it. But it beats always going to the laundry mat. The larger size is ideal for me because I can do about a half of a full basket of laundry at the time - i just cant spin it all at once so I usually spin half (1 to 3 times depending how much water the items are holding on it) then while im spinning the second half of the load I start refilling it with water to start the next load. You dont need to use very much laundry soap at all! I am guilty of using too much in normal machines but you need very little for this washer. Same with softener (add that to the rinse cycle). Its a little heavy because of its bigger size so its kind of a pain to move it back into the closet when im done, but if you have a larger bathroom you might not even need to move it. ADHDers beware - dont walk away from this thing while youre filling it up UNLESS you have the drain hose set up where it will drain to already. I overfilled this twice and slightly flooded my bathroom because I walked away from it without setting a timer. The good news is that when it overflows its draining from the hose, so if you set up the hose where its in the tub or toilet already, it wont overflow onto the floor. When im done with it, I hoist it up on the side of the bathtub so that the drain hose is completely below it and drain the last bit of water into the bathtub. The pump is strong but theres always a little water left at the bottom so this step is neccesary to make sure theres no water in the bottom when you put it away. I generally dont wash blankets or bedding in it (aside from pillow cases) mostly because I dont have the space to hang them to dry really. But I have seen reviews on tiktok of people who do so it might be possible! it also just depends on if the blanket would fit into the spin side when its fully wet. Ill end my review by saying this - while the washer is AMAZING - sometimes it will be easier to still go to the laundry mat if you have alot of laundry to do. It takes about 1-1.5 hours for me to do a load (with distractions and multitasking of course) so if I have a weeks worth of clothes for two people to wash, it may be an all day activity to get it done in the little washer. But I will still be using this thing the majority of the time.

Let me start by sharing I do have laundry hookups in my basement, a good bit of space down there and a floor drain (but no vent to outside and no windows that open down there). I do not live in an apartment, but a very old house. However, due to issues with a basement wall where my stairway is buckling in (I now have braces installed courtesy of foundation repair people) I can not fit more than 21" width of anything down the stairs. I had been going to the laundromat for the last 20 years. I am caring for a disabled husband now and I do not have the time to run back and forth to the laundromat. I also did not want to hassle with finding a way to hook up laundry hoses to my kitchen sink and our sink drain is a problem. My upstairs bathroom is tiny and has no electric outlets. The solution then was a twin tub portable mini washing machine in my basement and a separate spin dryer. I actually like that this takes some manual labor as I have more control over how much water to add, how long to wash and rinse, how much to drain at a time and so on. I have done two loads of laundry so far and have learned a few things. One, just because the capacity of this machine is 18 lbs in the wash tub, that does NOT mean you should put that much in at a time. Heavier clothing items should be washed separately in a small load. I originally planned on a "medium load" that filled a small round laundry basket, but within minutes of starting the wash I could see this was too much, even though only 1/2 the tub was filled with clothes. I had several pairs of heavy pants in there and a few heavier towels along with some shirts, underwear, songs, and a pair of long johns. I removed the towels and pants and turned this into two loads of laundry. It worked far better this way, not tanging my clothes and shaking the machine due to the weight of the laundry. The second problem I encountered was the lint filter in the tub kept popping off, even when I adjusted my load to a smaller load and kept the water level no more than halfway up the tub. The only way I could make it stay in was to wrap two rubber bands around the top and bottom of the lint trap and then insert it back in. This worked beautifully. I don't know if this is a problem with all these machines or just mine but as long as I found a way to keep it in I am ok. Once I figured out those issues everything else went very smoothly. I do not use the inlet hose at all. I bought a small laundry hose for $10 at a hardware store that fits nicely to my universal cold water hookup/faucet and I simply use that hose to fill my tub as needed. I do not hook it to my washing machine, I just hold it and fill the tub. it only takes about one minute to fill 1/2 way. I could have run the drain hose directly to my floor drain, but again that drain can be testy so I have a large laundry bucket on the side of my washing machine to drain water in, and then I later tip that and drain it VERY SLOWLY into my floor drain (residue sinks to the bottom so I can catch some of it that way too so it doesn't go in the drain). Its an extra step but ensures I will not clog a drain with too much water at once. I added a mesh wire lint filter (from a package of five) I bought for $5 at Menards on the end of the drain hose and it catches a lot of lint/hair etc. I did notice a small amount of lint on my clothes from the washing machine and I still have yet to figure out what to add to the lint trap in the washing machine to catch more of that. It wasn't a huge amount but noticeable. The washing machine agitated my clothes very well and created a lot of soap suds. I did try the spinner and it worked decently, no problems at all. I use it as a rinse (added a little water and did a spin cycle in it), and then after draining the wash tub I add more clean water and rinse my clothes again in the washer. My final spin I do in my Panda spin dryer as it is much larger and more powerful than the little spin dryer on the Auertech machine. I hang my clothes upstairs in our spare bedroom on drying racks. So far this system is working very well for me. If I need to wash large blankets, I can hand wash those in my bathtub and throw one at a time in my panda spin dryer. Everything else (aside from coats) I can wash in my Auertech. I don't need a dryer and I hate how those damage clothes anyway. I have always hung at least 3/4 of my clothes dry even at the laundromat. This was a very reasonably priced machine and is powerful for the price. My clothes did come out very clean and fresh, but slightly stiff as I think I used too much soap. Definitely a learning curve with this! I only used a half a capful but now I think I need even less for a small load. The plan is to wash an average of 3 small loads per week between my husband and I (we are frugal with clothes and re wear stuff more than once before washing). Each cycle/load takes about 45 minutes from start to done hanging clothes on a rack after spin drying. This beats a fifteen minute drive to the laundromat, waiting around for loads there about an hour, and hauling it back to the house another fifteen minutes. I don't have to deal with traffic, crowds, finding an open washer and dryer and spending $$$. My takeaway is that this machine works well if you baby it and do smaller loads at a time. I can see that the drain hose is very delicate so I am extra careful with it and I also hang on to it a bit when I am draining the tub. This is another reason for not having it directly on the floor running to the drain. I definitely stay around my units the entire time I am washing and never walk away. But it goes fast as I am always doing something. Overall I am happy with this unit. It fits my needs. It will come in handy during blizzards in the winter as I don't have to leave my house now!

DO NOT buy this washing machine. Also, since it's NOT shipped by Amazon, you WILL have to pay for shipping fees. Shipping fees cost more than the washing machine due to the size and weight, so you're really just stuck with this. This washing machine has A LOT of shortcomings that makes it unrealistic for use. CONS: 1) The water inlet hose does not work well. Either: the water enters the pipe and gets stuck somewhere in the plastic pipe, or the water trickles in at a very slow pace because of the small size of the inlet pipe. You need to use buckets to pour water in. The manual also mentions using buckets. If you're strong and able bodied, that may not be an issue. But if you're not very strong or disabled, this is going to be a huge problem. 2) It's pretty darn loud. Imagine a helicopter taking off right next to you. That's how loud the motor is. The YouTube videos on this doesn't capture just how loud it is. It's really really loud. If someone stood outside your apartment and listened, they'll definitely hear it. 3) You can only use a small dash of detergent. Imagine drizzling a bit of dressing on your salads. That's how little you can use. Any more than that and the detergent foams up and you need to spend forever scooping it out. No I'm not exaggerating. I literarily just finished scooping out a ton of detergent foam before I sat down to write this review. 4) The water doesn't drain completely out of the outlet pipe. You need to lift the machine up, brace it on the edge of your tub and let gravity pull the excess water out. If you don't have a tub, you need a drain that is on a lower level so that gravity will allow the water to flow out. Again, if you're able bodied and fairly strong, this may not be an issue. But if you're not, this is a huge problem. 5) I have a lot of extension cords, so I didn't find this to be a huge problem. But the power cord is quite short. Around 3-4 feet. 6) The washing machine did accurately list its size and dimensions. It's not as small as you think it is. It's also fairly heavy. I needed another person to help me move it to where I wanted it to be. It's not easy to put away for storage. You'll have to find a place to fixate it and leave it there. PROS: 1) The only thing I DID like was the spin dryer. I only needed to set it to 1 - 2 minutes to wring water out of my clothes. Since I cannot return it, I'm really just washing my clothes in the sink and spin drying it so that I don't have to wring the clothes. 2) You won't be getting a used machine because the seller doesn't pay for return shipping and return shipping costs more than the machine itself due to weight and size. I literarily live in the same state where the shipper's warehouse is located and the shipping is well over $170 on UPS. FedEx and USPS was far more than that. In summary, don't buy it. Spend the extra money and get a proper washing machine.

I received this washing machine yesterday, 6/10, and 6/11 at 5:00 am this morning, I was up washing my clothes. I have washed 7 loads of clothes. (I know), They were medium loads. They all came out clean! I have a laundry room, but the plumbing has a big leak that no one can find. They will need to open the walls inside and outside my home to find the problem. I've been forced to go to a public laundry mat, and I dread going. Which is why I had 7 loads of clothes. And the laundry mat is very expensive these days. The thought of a portable washing machine came to mind, and I began to research and found these amazing stories on YouTube about these machines. I agree with every one of them. This is an amazing product. It washes my clothes better than the one in the laundry room that I can't use. I wish I had known about this sooner. My home dryer still works, so I can dry my clothes right away. I recommend this to anyone who doesn't have a home laundry room. It's a blessing!

This is my second washing machine of this kind, and I am so happy with this one! It's very spacious, for handling plenty of laundry for my one person household, and the little things included with this washer have made my setup *so much* easier than my past one. The faucet adapter holds nice and tight while filling, and the U-shaped piece on an extended drain tube is wonderful. With this machine's little adapters & extended drain tube, I'm able to not have to life heavy buckets during the washing process, like with my previous one. I bring it next to my kitchen sink, with ease, carrying it, and get laundry done in less than an hour. The water extractor works great, too, making laundry dry only 2-3 hrs after washing, by hang drying on a rack. My prior machine was also $250, and this one was only $150, and yet it's much better, and bigger, yet still easy to work with/carry. I use it in my NYC apartment, so I don't have to use the shared laundry room, and it's great to not require any special hookups.

After an extensive search I decided to take a chance on this one. I have had it since Nov 2025. No issues so far. I don’t know how long it will last but I am enjoying the convenience that comes with using it. I also like that it has a pump. Now yes this product had some negative reviews but I looked at the overall reviews to decipher what were the complaints or issues. I decided to take the chance as there were more positive than negative. For me, I decided to put the machine in my bathroom. It fits against the wall by door with ease. I did turn machine over so I can move the hose from the left to the right (underneath), so it can closer to the tub to release water directly. I confirm there is no leakage from hose that came with the machine but you can see it is cheap material but it holds up well. Power supply: I bought an extension cord that was suitable for washing machine (had to google the wattage needed) and then bought one from amazon. Yes i did see it is advised to hook machine directly to outlet but that was not doable, so the next best thing is getting the appropriate extension cord. Connection from bathroom sink to machine to fill machine up: I wanted something easy to connect where I didn’t have to ask anyone for help so I found something on amazon and it works well (no leaks so far). …..Note: as advised I bought my own water hose, the one that came with machine was flimsy looking —- anyway I just use the lid/cover of machine to hold the water hose in place while it fills up (you just hv to keep in mind to monitor it). In regards to noise level for washing machine section - it’s bearable. Like I don’t care bc you are getting the convenience of washing your clothes in your house or apt, than having to laundromat. The noise level for drying section - well the trick is how you level the clothes. It is what it is, sometimes you get it level right and sometimes you don’t. Overall no issues. For convenience - I love having this washing machine. I wished I had bought one years ago. Drying - it’s satisfactory. The machine nearly dries all clothes (as per other reviews like 98%); then I hang it up. I believe it says the machine uses air drying. You will figure out what works for you. Note: Only comforters cannot fit in here. Even if it could, I wouldn’t do it unless I bought an electric dryer. Spin - is fine. No issues. Just like any other machine you have for a house. Lastly I appreciated all the pics showing how diff ppl connected the machine and where they chose to put it, as it helped me figure out what to do with mines.

I love this machine. Cleaning a lot better then an automatic one. The only issuee you may have is the drain hose if there is kink in it the water won't come out. So I put my machine in the tub to wash and drain works amazing. Since then drains great. Hope rhis helps

This washer is amazing ! Easy to your washes great

It works. Not too bad. I don't really have a complaint just yet haha but it is pretty good

The product works well but is it a bit labor intensive. You fill up the washing drum, pick your washing setting (regular or gentle), and set the time (max is 15 minutes). After that, you have to turn on the pump to drain the water. The instructions said you may have to do this a couple times to wash out all the soap. However, there is also a water inlet for the spinning side that you can connect, and rince your clothes while they spin. It does spin quite fast (if the clothes are balanced) and they come out just slightly damp (30 min with a fan blowing on them, while hung, will dry items like t-shirts and hoodies). The washing drum and spinner each have a motor so you can use both at the same time. However, the product is advertised to pump water up to 45 inches high (my sink is 36) and, at times, I could hear the pump working but water wasn’t coming out. I would have to put the drain hose on the floor and drain into a bucket, and then dump the bucket into a sink. Overall, it’s not a bad product for what it is (affordable / plastic) but it’s not ideal for everyone.

Excellent product, I recommend it for potential buyers!
