BLACK+DECKER 3.0 Cu. Ft. Portable Washer, 26.5 lb. Capacity Washing Machine, 6 Cycles, Quick Connect Sink Adapter and Drain Hose Included, Transparent Lid & LED Display, BPW30MW, White

** I was suspicious at first BUT THIS WASHER PROVED ME WRONG*** I live in an apartment 2 bed 1.5 bath. This washer fits perfectly inside of .5 bath and the closet that I store it in. It was bigger than I thought, but it fits my queen sheets and queen comforter in it perfectly. The settings are amazing for this washer. If you need to pause it and accidentally hit the off button, the sensor in the washer knows not to overfill it. It will start from the beginning is the only thing. The water hook up to the sink adapter fit perfectly (it is included with the washer.) If you are worried about this I would run to your local hardware store, its pretty easy to find another adapter. You can use cold or warm water with cold water hose. You don’t even need a hose to fill it, you could use jugs of water but you have to fill it until the sensor tells you there is enough water. It makes the same sounds as a normal washer. It’s not too loud. The washer rings out the clothes really well. Literally the exact same as a normal size washer. I got to 2 year protection plan just in case but I have no leaks as of right now. The lint trap is really useful. It catches so much lint. (I have two dogs) If you are worried about your sink clogging you can always put a panty hose at the end to catch the extra security but the water is clear with no lint every time I observed it draining. Just make sure your drain is not slow flowing because it pushes out a lot of water at one time. You could drain it in the toilet or a tub rather than a sink. I highly recommend buying a dolly. It is very heavy for one person to move round the house. I wouldn’t leave this washing unattended due to the drainage hose. Just make sure something heavy is propped up on top of it or you tape it down when in use. Also, the plug is a three prong plug. Don’t worry that you are keeping the facet on the entire duration of the wash, the water does stop when not in use of the washers function. Overall I see me keeping this for a long time. Even if I were to move into another apartment, it is easy for me to hook up to a regular washer and dryer hook up. If you are having doubts about buying this, I wouldn’t. It is worth the money. It seems like it will last a few years. The money for laundry mat gets expensive it evens out in the end. You are able to do your own clothes in your apartment and not have to take extra trips. Plus there is always a risk people will steal your clothes at a laundry mat or even in your apartment building. I don’t notice a difference in my water or electricity bill. It’s that cheap! There is a sticker that comes with it that says how much it will cost. Igor the 1.6 and my estimate is 9 dollars for the year.

I just used this washer for the first time since ordering it. It washes well and the size is good, almost the size of a full size regular washer, I got the 2.0 cubic feet model.My only frustration with the unit is the control panel, it's a bit confusing to use and lets say you choose a small load for low water level and cold water, then as soon as you switch the washing mode then it automatically changes the load size and water temperature, this is really frustrating. I wish it would just stay set regardless on what washing mode is used.I only use one input hose connected to my faucet and control the temperature from the faucet, so I would prefer to just have it where it stays set on that input I use, but when it changes then the washer doesn't work since the other water input is not connected, as I don't want multiple hoses going to my faucet, especially when I can control the temperature from my faucet. So this is my only complaint with the unit. Unfortunately I think the confusion on operating it is going to scare my mom away from using it, so likely I'll still need to go get quarters for her which I was hoping to avoid.Maybe I can buy an adapter that can connect both the hot and cold inputs so I can use one hose still and it can work in any temperature mode. I think i'll do that.I didn't want to give it 4 stars, but I wouldn't really give it 5 stars either due to the control panel issue, but I say it's 4.5 stars.

This machine is AWESOME! It’s actually bigger than I expected it to be. I am able to wash a thin queen comforter in it, which I was NOT expecting to be able to do! My expectations were surpassed from the first time I ran a wash cycle with it. I also got a compact dryer (not Black & Decker brand) to go with this and they make such a cute set together. 😍 I’m absolutely astonished by the quality of this machine and how much I am able to put in it to wash. The see through lid is a fun bonus to check on things to make sure everything is working correctly. 10/10!! Highly recommended. The delay feature is a great addition for this machine too, as the compact dryer takes quite a while to fully dry things, so I can get everything ready to wash, press the delay (I usually do 2 hours) and by the time the dryer is finished, so is the washer and I can switch loads in & out one after the other!Super happy with this purchase and I can’t believe I debated buying it for almost 6 months, meanwhile going to the laundromat and probably spent as much there as it would cost to buy this. I was even able to finance it through Affirm, so I am able to make monthly payments towards it for 12 months. Good way for a young person who is newly getting established in their own life, without parental support, as a way to build some credit too!I’M IN LOVE WITH THIS WASHING MACHINE! 😝
