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)

    • A Great Buy
Color: White
This is one of the best purchases I’ve made in awhile. I wish I would’ve bought one a long time ago. First of all. It comes disassembled, but the instructions are clear and it’s very easy to put together. Secondly, I’ve had this hand crank washer for a couple months now and have used it multiple times. I wear a size 0 in jeans, I can but 3 pair of jeans and a Jean shirt in it and they come out really clean. I set this in my bathtub and use it only because my shower has a removable sprayer and my kitchen sink doesn’t. I put my clothes in an a tiny bit of detergent cause it doesn’t take much. If u get it to soapy it’s really hard to get the clothes rinsed. I spin for a couple mins and I drain it, then I’ll refill and add my softeners and then spin a couple more mins, I drain it again and then I refill one last time for a final rinse. Third, I live in an apartment complex that doesn’t allow washers or dryers so I bought a spinner. After I rinse my clothes I put them in my spinner to get the remaining water out of my clothes which reduces dry time when I hang them up to air dry. Fourth, You can’t go wrong with the purchase. You’ll be able to tell how much detergent to use and it’s up to you how long you spin and rinse your clothes. This is great to have on hand for power outages or living off the grid. It’s small enough to store it. I put mine in a large tote. It’s really lightweight and can be moved with one hand but yet it’s built to last. Which is very impressive. Hope this helps and if you decide to buy one I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It really helps in a pinch. ... show more

    • One year old and cloth diapers to Pennsic
Color: White
14 Jun, 2014 - My wife and I camp at the two week long Pennsic War each year. It's an SCA event with ~10k people in a single campsite, with limited access to laundry facilities. Bought this in order to maintain our practice of using cloth diapers for our 1 year old son at war this year. Tried it out once in the bathtub already and we were quite impressed with it's performance and ease of use. Will post an updated review after the event with "real world" insight. WARNING to the squeamish - diapers can be a dirty business. 12 Aug, 2014 - UPDATE! After Pennsic this year I can give excellent reports on this washer! We made it through the entire length of our stay still using cloth diapers for our son. We brought plenty of cotton diaper liners, had to wash in the WonderWash twice for diapers alone. (We washed some of our period garb as well, but we brought enough to last our trip, so this review will focus on our diapers) We also used wool diaper covers that my wife made out of sweaters from Goodwill. Brought along two 5 gallon buckets for water and for use as a "diaper pail" to soak the dirties in. Poopy diapers were scraped clean before soaking in the diaper pail, pee diapers were simply soaked. A typical load was: ~20 cotton liners into the Wonderwash, a quarter capful of Ecover brand laundry detergent, and about 3 gallons of water. Cranked for about 2 minutes. I didn't count turns or time (we were chatting while working.) Attached the drain, loosened the lid and let it drain while I refilled my bucket. Come back, remove drain, fill with about 3 more gallons of water. Close lid and crank for another 2 minutes. Drain after rinsing. We did 3 rinses for each load of diapers. This was perhaps overkill, but considering they're diapers and next to super sensitive skin which seems to break out in a rash in the blink of an eye, we wanted to get them super clean. Wringed to remove as much water as possible and then hung on a line behind our tent to dry. Overall, the diapers came out VERY clean and well washed. There were a few stains remaining from the diaper rash cream we use, but even the home washer doesn't get that out. Line drying our diapers was another story however, the weather simply did not cooperate, and just as we were nearing complete dryness of the diapers, the skies opened up and poured rain down upon us. Oh well! We had enough liners to make it through until we could dry sufficiently; though we did get close to running out one day. This washer comes with my highest recommendation for Pennsic. I would compare it's wash cycle to a "gentle" cycle in a normal washer, so there is no fear about washing garb with delicate lace, trim, tassels or things like that. It does take a bit of technique to get used to how fast to turn the crank. You want to turn it fast enough to get some "sloshing" action going. If you turn it too slowly all you're doing is flipping the clothes (possibly a super gentle wash.) If you turn too quickly, the clothes all stay at one end and never slosh down (centrifugal force.) I think I will peel off the stickers and paint the Wonderwash in browns and black with a faux wood finish, so that it will look less modern and anachronistic in our camp at Pennsic. I already painted our plastic buckets to look like wood. Added bonus #1: Our son loved splashing & playing in the clean water bucket while I cranked! Added bonus #2: The empty washer can store all of the critical laundry items, making for easy packing and organization. We packed a bottle of detergent, clothespins and roll of clothesline all inside with room to spare. ... show more

    • Does the job well
This is a good for small apartments. The manual says to use 1 Tbs of laundry detergent for a small load. I cut open a tide pod and used 1 tsp of it for a large load and that was plenty. My clothes seem much cleaner as they are not picking up random gunk from communal machines. Putting it together was easy. The tab covers on one side didn’t fit, but they’re just for esthetics. Be sure and turn the suction cups so they lay flat. I didn’t get one side to suck very well, and it was okay. I was rushing and just held it secure with my other hand. When you’ve loaded it and put the top on the drum it feels like you’re going to break it when you bring down the lever to seal it closed. You’re not. Also, when you’re done, the drain pipe can be tricky. You have to really stick it in there and twist, and then it drains just fine, albeit slowly. I refilled my load with water and rinsed twice. I did my laundry in the bathtub initially in case of possible leaks. There were none, and my back and knees protested. So I moved it to the kitchen counter. I purchased the Ninja dryer to go with and that is a game changer. For the price, this was a good purchase. It saves me time and money, and my clothes come out cleaner. It doesn’t seem very sturdy but so far it’s doing just fine. If it drained faster and felt sturdier I’d give it 5 stars. ... show more
