JapanBargain, Japanese Plastic Washboard Portable Laundry Board for Kids Training, Travel and Camping, Made in Japan

Randomly bought this and I was very skeptical but this is easily one of the most successful purchases I made that I thought twice about. It’s very portable and sturdy and cheap and I’ve had it so long it still looks brand new too I didn’t realize how much I’d end up using it for stains and delicates. I just rinse or rinse with soap and I’m done!

This is a great little washboard. It is thin and light enough to go into my suitcase upside down, clothes on top, and barely take up any space. I’ve taken several months’ long trips and used this washboard about every other day. Obviously it’s easier to wash socks on it than jeans but you don’t need to have the fabric touch the washboard. Think about a washing machine at home: it’s the friction between the fabric and other fabric that does most of the washing. This board helps by pushing soapy water through the fabric as you scrub. Use Zote bar laundry soap along with this board and you have a perfect means of washing your clothes. (Get a travel soap dish and cut the Zote into bars that fit). I do recommend washing larger pieces in the shower though rather than a small sink because it’s just easier. I inspired several travel buddies to get this board too. We all love it.

It is super small, but it fits in your sink which makes hand washing smaller items a breeze. It does bend a little but that doesn't impact it's usability. If you want to wash larger items then get a full sized washboard and stop complaining.

Smaller than expected perhaps i shoul dhave read the discription Better and actually used a measuring tape to really judge this to my sink where i generally intend on working with it. It Doesn't feel like a high quality Plastic. It Feels as though one Fall might crack it, Despite the 3 star i use as needed, and it does the jobs as intended.

It’s sturdy and will do its job. For the size and the price I wished it was a little bit bigger but over all I like it’s sturdy. This is good for washing Intimate under garment or anything like a little laundry so you won’t have to waste so much on water with a bigger laundry!!

very practical, I loved that it is small

For the size it’s functional. It’s small but not too small. Fits fine inside my bathroom sink at first wasn’t to sure if it would make a difference when scrubbing my baby’s reusable diapers but let me tell you after scrubbing 24 covers and 48 inserts my hands hurt like a B**** but with this thing I not only was able to successfully clean out everything, but also in a fraction of the time it takes me to do it using only my hands. No pain and no time. Love it! I will like to think it might hold up for a good year but if anything I’ll come back with an update to see how long it lasts. I did have to hold it with one hand while scrubbing with the other hand, to keep it from sliding off the porcelain but it wasn’t to big of an issue for me.

I had one of those year ago and that helps a lot when the clothes are really dirty (people with kids will understand... or with partners that play any sport), and this device save nails and damages in my hands. The product is ok, but it has scratches that tear apart the plastic bag. Those are not really bad but they look as if the product was dragged, weird... So the product is OK, but the store manage is questionable. I'm not going to return it, I need it, but I used to receive everything in good condition, I think it is the first time that happen to me (lucky?)
