BLACK+DECKER 2.0 Cu. Ft. Portable Washer, 15.4 lb. Capacity, BPWM20W, White

I've had this washer for a week, so I'll update if anything dramatically changes, but this is one of my best purchases to date. I have a senior dog that could live for another 5 years, maybe more. (Gotta love dachshunds). She's struggling with incontinence, and we're to the point where a dedicated washer became necessary. I can't be running my other washers 8 hours a day (2 clean cycles) to feel comfortable putting my clothes back in. So we bought this, and it is a BEAST. I use powdered detergent and Biz, which has rid everything we've put into the washer of pee smell. I put our washable 14 ft runner into our regular machine instead of spot treating after a really bad day, and it did not clean the runner to the degree needed. It was kind of bulky, but the 1.7 was able to handle it, to my surprise. Not only that, but it cleaned the rug 40 minutes faster than our clothes washer, and it was truly completely clean when we took it out. The hoses are short, but that's an easy enough problem to remedy. Someone on here said to buy those wire mesh traps to put on the drain hose, and I definitely echo that sentiment, especially if you have dogs. The hair has the capacity to clog your drain, and it does get spit out. Miraculously, the machine doesn't smell at all, despite what we've been aggressively using it for. With my Samsung, one wash with a pee pad and there's an odor in the drum that takes a full self-clean cycle to get rid of. Not this thing, apparently. Maybe because I only use cold water? Who knows. This machine has made my life so much easier, and I'm thankful for it. I hate that her incontinence has felt like a burden, because you want to cherish those last years while you have them...not be frustrated for things outside of both of your control. Who knows how long it'll hold up with 1-2 loads a day, but if it does for six months, this thing will pay for itself.

I have been using this portable washing machine almost five days a week since last year, and it has been working very well. I bought the 0.9 cu. ft. model, and I think it is perfect for one or two people. To give you an idea of the capacity, it can easily fit 5–6 T-shirts and one bath towel, or about two drying rack shelves’ worth of lightweight clothes in one load. The spin cycle works really well and my clothes never come out soaking wet. I also like that you can choose how many times the machine drains the water during a cycle. It is not very noisy but sometimes during the spin cycle it becomes loud because the wash tub seems to touch something inside. From time to time it also shows an E2 error which simply means the lid is open. Pressing Start/Pause fixes it right away. Because it is small and lightweight, it is easy to carry using the side handles. The only downside is that the sink adapter does not fit every faucet. At first, I had to fill the machine by hand. when the machine completely stops and makes a buzzing sound, it means it needs water. I simply press Start/Pause, add water, press Start to start or continue the cycle. Filling it by hand can get tiring so it’s definitely worth getting a compatible faucet adapter. For draining, I place the drain hose in my bathtub because the water comes out very quickly and the bathtub handles the flow much better than my sink. Also make sure to keep the drain hose raised as shown in the instructions. If the hose is left too low, the machine can drain itself. This happened to me 2–3 times before I realized why. The instructions also recommend using only cold water, as this machine is not designed for hot water. Overall, this machine has saved me so much time, especially during the cold winter months because I no longer have to keep going to the laundromat.

Great buy!!! I definitely recommend this washer especially if you live in an apartment and don’t have a washer & dryer hookup. I’ve had it for about a little over a year and a half and it’s still working great, along with the dryer combo (Black + Decker one). This one holds a lot more clothes than the dryer but I wash pretty large loads of clothes. I’ve even washed kind & queen size bed comforters, blankets, and bed sheets and it works great. I obviously don’t wash the super heavy or bulky comforters or blankets and if it’s a big one I do one at a time but it washes them perfectly and it saves me from going to the laundromat especially in the winter time.

For some context: My roommates and I live in a third-floor walkup apartment in an old historic home and our coin-operated laundry is in the basement - being able to do laundry IN our apartment has been an absolute game changer. I was hesitant at first to buy this after seeing some mixed reviews, but I'm so glad I took a chance. There are SEVERAL options for wash cycles, anywhere from 30min to upwards of 60+min depending on what you're washing/what cycle you want to run. The instructions indicate you should only use cold water with this machine - which works for us since we typically only use cold water for laundry anyway. I bought the smallest size machine with the idea that if we needed to do something bulkier, we can always do that in the laundry room in the basement (or bring it to our parent's homes and do it there - sorry mom lol). Based on our usage so far, go with whatever size works for you, your budget, and your space. If we had more space and money, I would've absolutely gotten the largest size they offer. HOWEVER, I do not regret the size we got (0.9 cubic ft) because I truly don't mind doing more loads at a smaller capacity. This actually works out in my favor considering I transfer all my clothes to a drying rack outside on our back porch and then just wait for the summer heat to do its thing. If we had gotten a bigger machine, we likely would've had to buy a small portable drying machine as well because air-drying would not have been able to keep up with multiple loads back to back (we are girls with lots of clothes, and therefore lots of laundry, what can I say). Even with it being the smallest size, we don't mind spending the day doing laundry since it's a million times more convenient now. The 0.9 cubic ft size is is great for delicate and small items, but if you want to wash bulkier items, you can also do that! I was able to fit 1 body towel, 5 hand towels, 2 wash cloths, and 2 dish towels in the washer, if that gives you any idea of how much can fit in there. I haven't used it for my bedsheets yet (I have a queen bed), but I doubt that'll be a problem considering how much I've been able to fit in there so far. If you're worried about bulky items coming out wet, don't be - one of the many things that's great about this machine is that you can add on extra spin time. I did this for my towels and it came out drier than if I had used a regular washing machine, and it therefore dried much faster (outside, mind you)! Reasons the machine might make a lot of noise, beep, or not work properly (from my experience): 1. You overloaded it and it's working overtime (you'll hear this during the spin cycle - it sounds like a train chugging along). This is why it's important to read the instructions and don't add too many items! 2. It's on uneven ground (the machine quite literally will stop if it's not on even ground - but there is a leveling leg built in that can help you with that). 3. There's not enough water in the basin (this only applies if you're manually filling it with water instead of using the water input hose***) - just add more water until there's about 2-3in of room from the top of the metal basin. When in doubt, add more water - it'll just drain the excess if you put too much. 4. The items inside of the basin are not distributed evenly - the machine will stop. You just have to move things around so the weight is even inside. 5. The drain hose is not at the correct height - if the drain hose is too low, the machine won't work properly and the water will just drain as the basin is being filled. The drain hose needs to be ABOVE the water level inside of the basin, so keep that in mind when you're deciding where to place the machine and therefore the drain hose. When in use, the machine is in front of our kitchen sink and the drain hose goes directly into the sink - it's high up enough that the water will drain properly. We have yet to experience water staying inside the basin after a cycle is complete, the machine does a great job at removing ALL of the water. ***KEEP IN MIND: If you're not using the water input hose and you're manually filling it with water - you should not leave the machine unattended. It will beep aggressively if you wait too long to add more water for the next wash cycle (ask me how I know, lol). The manual tells you how many wash cycles are in each pre-set cycle, so pay attention to that. I believe the "Normal" setting has two wash cycles, so I typically will fill the basin, start the machine, wait until the first round is done and the water drains, PAUSE THE MACHINE (if you just open the lid and don't pause, it will beep angrily at you), then add more water (again, until it's about 2-3in from the top of the metal basin), and START THE MACHINE. Remember, this bad boy is NOT automatic, but we love it regardless! I am in the process of trying to figure out how we can jerry-rig our kitchen sink to use the water input hose, but if I can't figure it out, it won't be the end of the world. The last thing that I'll say is that although there are two small wheels on the bottom of the machine towards the back, they aren't super efficient and could potentially scratch your hardwood floors. We have very old hardwood floors in our apartment that are uneven, so this was something we wanted to avoid. We ended up getting a small dolly that the machine will sit on top of permanently, and that makes it 100x easier to move it from place to place (e.g. where we store it vs. where we use it).

It arrived in good condition. No dents!!!! Easy to set up. Great for small apartments. It works as it should. Gets my clothes cleaned just as good as any washing machine. The spin cycle definitely cuts down the dryer time. I appreciate that you can select how many rinse & spin cycles. Hose & other connecting parts are of good quality (sturdy in my opinion) & have good length. Tub is stainless steel. It has a good agitator. Giving 4 stars only due to the water level. I mostly use level 3 (large loads), but it’s almost as if the water level is for 1-2 (small, medium). I guess it’s an “energy efficient” thing. All in all I’m happy with my purchase & would recommend. Side note… please read through the manual. Use as instructed. Do a test run & for the love of life GET THE WARRANTY!!! Will update in a few months

Make sure you remove all styrofoam supports before you try and use this machine!!! If you’re looking for a cheap reliable washer this is definitely what you want. If you don’t mind a tad bit bigger washer then I suggest you go check out your nearest Home Depot and Lowe’s for washers on clearance because I seen a whirlpool brand 4.8 cubic top loader for $475 which was really nice I would of bought that instead but I bought this first also I don’t know if the sink would work for the whirlpool so it is what it is. This black and Decker works with the sink which is why I went with this because my apartment doesn’t have a washer setup. So far so good with this washer it holds a good amount of clothes and being in an apartment with neighbors to the left, right, and below it’s great that this machine is quiet. When it’s on full speed spin which would be the loudest point for this washer you can’t hear it if your in the next room, also if your using a dolly to move the washer around you can put a shock resistant pad on the dolly and it will help even more with lowering the vibration and sound. As for the size it’s bigger then I thought it would be it’s about the same size as a regular washer it stands about 3ft tall out of the box but you can make it a little taller if you’d like. It’s still a good enough size to where you can tuck it away so it’s not taking up a lot of room which I like and if you put it on a dolly it super easy to move it around. It washes towels with ease and they come out super clean and if you use sent beads it’s really makes the clothes and the room smell very good you can smell it coming through the washer the sent on the clothes really POPs with this washer I’m not sure why but it’s way better then other washers I’ve used. I also love how you can mix and match different kinds of wash settings to how ever you want which not many washers do with other washers you kind of just get what they give you. Also keep in mind if you press the program button and it goes down the list of quick, bulky , normal and delicate the more you press the button you’ll notice the light starts to blink which means the settings on the left, So solid light is settings on the left and blinking light is settings on the right. As for how long this washer will last I believe it can last 10 years with no breaking down and if anything breaks on it I think it would be super easy and cheap to fix because I looked on the inside and the mechanism looks super simple and I don’t think it would be hard to fix plus black and decker has professionals that will come out and fix it. It also depends on how you treat it too if over load it you’ll probably get less time out of it but if you load it so there’s less strain on the motor it should last a long time. I like how the clothes come out nice and dry after the spin cycle so if you don’t have a dryer it doesn’t take much to get them fully dry. I also like the drain hose because it drains fast without the hose moving or falling and the water goes down the sink drain with no problems, I can have a bunch of dishes in the sink and the water has no trouble draining or filling up the sink. Also keep in mind it’s filling from a sink so it’s best to let the washer fill up half way before you put the clothes in so the clothes don’t soak up the water at the beginning making the fill take a lot longer. Over all great buy im very happy I bought this machine if anything changes I’ll update my review but I definitely recommend this washer and I also recommend the Comfee brand washer and Comfee brand portable dishwasher, if you need a portable dishwasher the comfee brand is amazing I’ve had mine for 4 years it works like new every time I use it and it runs and drains using the sink as well.

So I specifically bought this to bucket fill… I live off grid and don’t have any water source to directly hook it to. I have also had the Japanese style ones where there’s a wash cycle on one side and a spin on the other and they’re AWFUL. This is much much better. I had seen a couple reviews stating that they bucket fill this one, but not much info about water usage doing that or how it works, so here’s what I’ve learned so far (please note, this is for the largest model offered): The system seems to be weight based. Given that it’s hooked up to nothing I can hear the intake pump running at the beginning of a cycle. This will continue until the unit has enough water in it, but how does it know? I played around a lot and decided it’s gotta be weight based, which correlates with the size of load you’re running. So, I put my wash settings on “normal”, change the load size to small, add about 8 gallons of water + the drum 3/4 filled with clothes will get it to start. You’ll see the time for the wash drop from 37 minutes to 34 as soon as it’s got enough water. The cycle size you choose will affect how much water it wants, so I always choose “small” for size and this cuts down on how much water I use. The same thing happens on the rinse cycle. It drains the water from the wash cycle and wants another 8 gallons to do the rinse cycle. At this point it really depends what I’m washing if I choose to do this or not. I have a geriatric dog that makes a whole lot of laundry throughout the week, and for those items I don’t really worry about the rinse cycle. I’ll let the system run through the beginning of the rinse cycle where it is draining most of the wash water off, pause the program, turn the washer off and back on, and then put it on the “spin only” cycle. This cycle is automatically 27 minutes but I usually run it for about 10 and then stop it again. I use those little $3 Walmart micro fleece blankets for him and after 10 minutes in spin only they come out almost completely dry and smelling super fresh. I’ll hang them on a rack in front of a box fan and they’re bone dry within an hour. I also have a regular household pillow for him as a dog bed and that will spin out and dry super fast (2-3 hours) with the same method. This machine will hold two of the fleece blankets and the pillow at the same time, and get everything very clean on the normal cycle, small size. For my clothes I do want a rinse cycle so when the washer changes from wash to rinse I’ll let it drain the wash water, add another 8 gallons, and let the rinse cycle run. The main thing I listen for is if the inlet pump is trying to run. If it is, add more water. You’ll have to pause the system every time you’re adding more water or you’ll get an “E3” error, which just means the lid is open. So, all in all, it is kind of hands on if you’re a bucket filler. It uses between 8-16 gallons of water on small cycle depending on if you want to do a rinse cycle. Based on other reviews I was cautious to have the drain inlet at the proper height. I drain it to my bathroom sink and it works great. If it’s too low it won’t hold water, too high and the pump isn’t strong enough to drain. The drain hose has a nice moveable gooseneck on it and the power of the pump has yet to be so strong it kicks the gooseneck out of the sink, which has been my biggest fear. Despite the hands on nature of it, I really love it. It took me about a week of use, using it 2-3x a day to where I felt really comfortable not just standing over it staring and learning the sounds it’s making to know when it needs my attention. Living in a small space I can just attend to it while I’m doing other chores and it doesn’t feel like a pain. This may depend on how much you hate the laundromat or how much access you have to one. There’s only one laundromat nearby but this woman runs a wash and fold out of it and will tie up all the machines until about 3 pm, and then the rest of the community has a mad dash to try to get their stuff in so it feels like sometimes there’s a laundromat nearby, but it’s a huge source of stress to try to time my day around it’s availability. Other pros: it is really really quiet. I’ll run it at night while my s/o is sleeping and it doesn’t bother them at all. Whether you use the rinse cycle or not everything comes out smelling incredibly fresh. If you want to soak anything, just put it all in with water, soak as long as you want, then run the cycle as you see fit. Will definitely be keeping.

I purchased this late in December 2023 when I moved into an apartment that did not have in house washing and used it up through February 2025 on a regular basis. I'm going to break down my review section by section for my overall experience with the device, both in terms of the pros and cons, to explain the rating. Functionality: The machine comes with a six spin cycle, top down design, with multiple options for size loading. I utilized the 2.0cf model because I needed something that didn't require hard-wiring, and it functioned perfectly well on my outlet without any issue. I did appreciate the variety of load options, since you could do long soaks as well as delicate cycles. I found that most things handled the wash cycles just fine. I did like how the soap tray pulled out in a little insert, which made it perfect for using the detergent pods, which are a bit of a space saver in apartment living. Water output exists for both hot and cold, but this option really only exists if you have access to a permanent hook up. If you're using a faucet with an adapter (which the machine does include - you just need a wrench to loosen the aerator), then you'll want to attach the hookup to the cold water side and just control temperature through the faucet itself. I will say keeping the hose tight is a must. I found that if I did not screw it on as tightly as possible, leaks could appear. Additionally, the drainage hose *must* be secured, especially if you're sending the flow into the sink. The speed of the water exiting during the spin cycle can absolutely cause the hose to vibrate out of place and fall out onto the floor, which did happen to me on two occasions. (I fortunately caught it quickly cleaned up before it could do damage.) I learned to zip tie to the faucet or at least stack heavy items on the hose to keep it from moving. Lastly, lint buildup can and will occur as the result of washing. There's a lint catcher inside the machine that must be emptied every so often. Additionally, if you're directing the flow into a sink or tub, rather than an open piping system, than you need to put a filter over it to protect it from clothing fibers building up in the catchment. This is easily enough accomplished by getting one at Home Depot or, in situations where you don't have one on hand, a stocking will actually do temporarily. Size/Placement: Portability is the primary appeal of this machine, but I will say if you're going with the larger model if I did, you are going to find it's a decently heavy device to lug around. The smaller models are likely slimmer and easier to maneuver, but by the time you get to the 2-3.5cf models, you're looking at a device that's fairly cumbersome and clearly intended to be permanently installed. This is, ultimately, what I wound up doing with mine since I had the fortune of two hookups in my closet, but for those of you who have limited space and will need to hook it up to a faucet, I'd likely go with a smaller model. The machine moves by leaning it back on two wheels and pushing it, but it's top heavy enough that a smaller person might struggle with it. I actually used a dolly to move it around until I had it permanently set up in the closet. Additionally, there needs to be some consideration for the hosing. I mentioned above that it needs to be secured when the spin cycle is on, but I'll also add that it benefits from the occasional vinegar rinse. Some water does inevitable backflow and get stuck in the interior because of where it's placed at the bottom of the machine unless you lay it on it side and "guide" the flow of the house onto a towel or water basin, so I can see where water buildup may occur if it's not given the occasional run with bleach or vinegar in a permanent setup. Loading: The amount it fits is more impressive than it first appears for the 2.0cf model. I generally had no issue doing an entire week's worth of clothing in one sitting. I was even able to do a full size comforter in there, though I wouldn't recommend doing anything much larger than that and would only wash it by itself. There is some drawback in the top down design in that you do have to be careful in how you load the machine because it gets unbalanced easily. Not uncommonly, I'd have to stop it mid cycle and re-sort the clothing in order to keep it from rocking back and forth when it hit full spin. Overloading the capacity is definitely a no-go, but the machine does have an autobalancing feature on that forcibly stops the spin cycle if it feels itself going beyond the limits of its controls, which is nice. This being said, it was enough of an issue that I wouldn't leave the house while I had it running, if only for the sake of my poor neighbors in the apartment below if something went off balance and created a rocking sensation. Spin cycle/Drying: For the most part, the single spin cycle was decently effective for drying if you followed up with a dryer, though if you live in a more humid area or hang dry, I recommend running a second individual spin cycle to get it more thoroughly spun out. I found that if I only ran one cycle in the colder months and attempted to line dry, I'd sometimes have the clothes would still be damp even two days later, even when I was running a dehumidifier in the same room. During warmer months, it was less an issue, but it's an important consideration if you live in a region with a wet season. Reliability: Unfortunately, this is where the machine earns it's 2 star rating. I had this device for a little over a year, just past the warranty date. Up until then, I had few issues arise with it...until it abruptly did. I was running a load when I heard a snapping sound. When I went to investigate, I found that the spin cycle was completely broken. It would initiate, but the drum would not move at all. The load I'd thrown in had not been excessively heavy, so my guess is long term stress on the drive belt had finally caused it to snap. Everybody runs into appliance issues, but I definitely wasn't expecting a machine from a known quality brand at this price point to have a problem that debilitating within two years of purchasing it. Estimates I was given on fixing it by professions ranged from the $150-300, which made paying to repair it exorbitant unless I was willing to try my hand at it myself. (And I likely will, after some research, but the point remains.) My disappointment can be quantified in terms of the math. After taxes, this machine cost me roughly $500. At a rate of a little over one load per week for 14 months, that comes out to about $8/load. The washer/dryer setup my landlord has in the basement, which are larger capacity AND includes the dryer cycle, come out to about $6/load per week. I had gone for the Black & Decker brand because of its reputation, hoping that I was making a decent investment that would provide long term savings. Instead, I mostly just bought and expensive paperweight. It's now been sitting unused in my closet for a good three months, waiting for a week when I have the time and energy to go through the laborious process on unhooking everything and removing it so I can open it up and take a look at the outside. A bit of a shame since my landlord's maintenance team had been kind enough to help me install it, and I'd planned on leaving it there for them when I moved as a thank you. Now I'm faced with having to go through the expense of having it removed if I can't fix it. My general summation is that it was a nice machine while it lasted but ultimately one that proved more aesthetic than functional long term. A bit of a disappointment all around.

I just moved into a new one-bedroom apartment with no in-unit laundry. The building has communal laundry machines on the bottom floor but I hate the idea of using dirty machines to clean my clothes, having to wait for clothes or running the risk that someone may steal it. Even just paying for each load can turn out to be expensive. So I knew I wanted to a portable washer, and a high-end one at that since my lease doesn’t allow portable washers. I needed something that was good quality and silent. This machine has proven to do exactly what I needed. Yes it was a little more than what I was hoping to spend - but the peace of mind it gives me is well worth it to me. I can run multiple loads, in the comfort of my own unit, at any given time, and not have to worry or spend any more additional money. The tub itself is pretty big. I purchased the 2.0 size and I can fit my queen bed sheets in there, as one single wash but it’s still nice to be able to do that. I also purchased an adjustable rolling dolley that I placed under the washing machine to sit on. The machine itself is quite heavy ranging from 50-65 lbs (I don’t have a scale) and it is a struggle to move it from its living location in my house to the kitchen sink. This tray makes this task mindless and super easy and convenient. Other than that, installation was very quick and easy. My first few loads have been a huge success and I am thrilled with my purchase.

Cleans clothes amazingly, and quieter then I expected. Easy to operate which i love.

I love my portable washer. It has been a lifesaver for our apartment. The set up and use instructions are clear and easy, and it washes a lot of clothes. I can fit 5-6 t-shirts, 4-5 underwear and 2 pants in this machine. Remember to clean it with bleach after 20-25 or so washes, as it does begin to smell like mildew. Extremely pleased with this purchase.

Haré una reseña con funcionamiento o usos. Apenas la tengo por 3 días y ya la usé 7 veces. Eso sí, tardó casi un mes en enviarse (Amazon Internacional Standard) desde la fecha de compra. Aproximadamente 20 días. El envío sólo fue de 2 días. Las medidas de profundidad contando la manguera de desagüe es de 48cm, la medida de ancho con espacios laterales recomendados es de 45cm y la altura es de 78cm. Es decir, una ves que la abres y sacas de la caja, es muy bonita y da ternura por lo compacta. Pero esa es su ventaja. Las cargas habituales que realice fueron de : 15 boxers talla M, o 5 a 7 playeras talla M o G, o 2 pantalones de mezclilla talla 32. No la llenes a más de 3/4 de ropa seca. Detergente se recomienda usar los que tienen el logo "he" high efficiency (alta eficiencia). En mi caso recomiendo el detergente mexicano "Newen" de venta también en Amazon. Ya que es biodegradable y concentrado (alcanza a lavar bien con una a tres cucharadas 10 a 30ml) en lugar de los detergentes comerciales que usas tapas de más de 100ml. Aún así en las instrucciones se recomienda usar la mitad de lo que dicen los envases. En cuanto a ruido, es muy silenciosa incluso durante el centrifugado. Respecto a las conexiones, los aditamentos con los que viene, fueron suficientes para conectarla a la llave del lavabo. Viene con dos gomitas dentro de la conexión rápida. Dependiendo si es para rosca interna o externa se pone o se quita el empaque superior. La manguera del desagüe, TIENE QUE ESTAR POR ENCIMA DEL NIVEL DE AGUA DE LA LAVADORA, es decir, si la dejas en el suelo, jamás se va a llenar. Tiene varios modos de lavado. Únicamente el modo Pesado (Heavy), Gentil (Gentle) y Remojar (Soak) te dejan modificar todos los parámetros de lavado. El modo Normal y Rápido sólo permite cambiar nivel de agua y número de enjuagues. El lavado (Wash) se puede seleccionar hasta 20min, se pueden seleccionar hasta tres enjuagues (Rinse) y hasta 9min de centrifugado (Spin). Cualquiera de estos tres parámetros se pueden omitir al dejarlos en 0. El modo rápido tarda 15min y el modo más tardado 88/90min. El atrapa pelusa en verdad funciona. No tengo ninguna queja al respecto. Si acaso el tiempo de envío y el costo que se paga por importación (va incluído en el precio). Si esta lavadora se vendiera en México costaría $1,200 pesos menos es decir entre $5,500 a $6,100 pesos. Que bien lo valen. En verdad recomiendo la lavadora. Como extra les recomiendo comprar un codo a 90° para la manguera de llenado y quede más cómoda la conexión en la lavadora. Haré actualización al mes o 3 meses, a ver qué tal va. Ha pasado un mes, y todo funciona perfectamente, igual que el primer día. El modo de lavado "Pesado" es mi favorito, el cual personalizo en cada lavada. Recomiendo usar jabón Persil.

The machine can hold a significant amount of laundry for its size (15 pounds) - which is why I purchased this. It is notably good quality and smart looking so it does not look out of place outside of a closet, in the open, as pictured. That’s hard to find as most top loaders could not pull off a “nice looking” aesthetic. Spin cycle is great and leaves clothes very dry. It came with all necessary attachments to have this up and running in 5 minutes from opening the box. Well packaged and not a scratch on it when delivered (rurally, even). Really impressed with this machine so far! Would certainly recommend. If it holds up to time and usage I would recommend this machine based on specs as it currently outperforms anything in its size/weight capacity and I did a lot of research prior to purchase. Will update review if I note any unreasonable failures.
