All in One Hand Wash Bag and Plunger Set - Off Grid Washing Machine Non Electric for Camping Travel | Eco Friendly Portable Manual Clothes Washer Laundry Bag for RV's (Medium)

Alright, so when I saw this Dezitrek bag pop up, I was intrigued but also a little skeptical. A laundry *bag* that's also a *scrub board*? Sounded a bit like a gimmick, but I'm always looking for clever solutions, especially for travel or those "delicate" items I don't trust to the machine. Well, I gotta say, I'm pretty impressed! It's essentially a large, durable dry bag with a textured, flexible "washboard" surface built into the inside. The idea is simple: you toss in your clothes, some water, a bit of detergent, seal it up tightly, and then you just rub your clothes against that textured internal surface from the outside of the bag. I've used it a few times now. Once for some socks and underwear on a weekend camping trip – worked like a charm for getting the grime out. The second time was for a couple of silk blouses that usually get hand-washed in the sink. This was actually *way* easier and less messy than trying to scrub them by hand in a basin. The large size is great; it's big enough for a decent handful of smaller items or maybe 2-3 larger shirts, but still folds down surprisingly compact when you're done. It really does mimic the action of a traditional scrub board, but without the bulk or the splashing mess. The seal seems super secure, which is obviously important when you've got soapy water sloshing around. **Pros:** * **Surprisingly effective:** The internal scrub board genuinely helps get clothes clean. * **Portable:** Folds down small for travel, camping, or just tucking away. * **Less messy:** Contains the water and soap, no splashing all over your bathroom or campsite. * **Good for delicates:** A gentle alternative to machine washing. * **Durable:** Seems well-made and the material feels tough. **Things to keep in mind:** * It's still handwashing! It takes effort, and you'll still need to rinse the clothes thoroughly afterward (usually just in a clean bucket or sink). * Remember to open it up and let it air dry completely after use to prevent any mildew smells. Overall, if you do a lot of camping, travel often, live in a small apartment without laundry, or just have a lot of delicates you prefer to hand wash, this Dezitrek bag is a genuinely handy tool. It's not going to replace your washing machine for big loads, but for small, quick, or gentle washes, it's a solid, clever solution that really works. Definitely glad I gave it a shot!

Nice! Durable. Compact, easy to use. I especially like the plunger to agitate the cloths. You can let them soak and if you get tired leave it and come agitate it more later. Depending on how dirty your cloths are. Great idea! Pretty stable too.

This Dezitrek All in One Hand Wash bag and plunger is amazing! I got the large to use as an Off Grid washer when the electricity is out, to save money, and to be ecofriendly. I use the medium size for those reasons and to take with me when I travel so I can pack light by washing my clothes before bed each night. It only takes a few minutes to wash them, and my clothes come out really clean! The telescoping plunger saves my back from leaning over very far, but it is also compact enough to put in my carry on! I am truly amazed at this product! All I have to do for my laundry is: put my clothes in the bag, add water from my hotel bathtub, and add the detergent. (I use detergent sheets from amazon that are thin- like tissue paper. This has been a great, easy way to travel with detergent.) Then I plunge my clothes and watch the suds appear. After a few minutes, when I feel like enough time has passed for them to be clean (which depends on how many pieces of clothing I do at a time), I am all done washing. Then, I unscrew the cap, roll down the bag and squish the bag down to let the sudsy water out of the draining hole. (I do this in the bathtub at my hotel, so the water goes right down the drain.) I repeat filling the bag with rinse water (I also plunge a little more—to help get the suds out of my clothes faster) and then squishing the water out through the hole and —Voila —all clean! I love that it comes in a handy bag for travel. They really knew what they were doing when they made the telescoping plunger handle just the right size to fit into a carry on piece of luggage, but also tall enough to reduce bending over when washing. The only thing I had a hard time with was wringing enough water out of my clothes so they could be dry by morning. It is hard on my wrists to wring for a long time for my clothes to be efficiently dry enough. I hang them dry by the air conditioner/heater in the hotel room but it still takes days. When traveling from hotel to hotel, this can be challenging. However—I see they just came out with a wringer that saves your hands and wrists from wringing out the clothes. I am very excited about that! Here is a picture of me rinsing my clothes with the medium size in a hotel bathtub. So easy!

as some folks have noted, this is a nice manual no-electricity method to take care of handwashing clothes if a washer is dead or otherwise out of reach. the footprint is small. the bag folds nicely, the plunger stick can be disassembled from its head, the side screw-on valve for water to exit is a great touch on what otherwise appears to be a fold-down dry bag that is coated and otherwise hopefully reasonably heavy-duty. running through a couple rounds with this gadget, i've found that while it may do the trick for lighter-duty items -- spring or summer clothes, light fabrics, quick dry types -- for heavier items such as towels or blankets, it doesn't work quite as well. or perhaps it would but not without extended effort plunging and longer waiting times and the like. heavier fabrics take more work to penetrate. there's a reason why washers usually have reasonably high-powered motors. to assume that using this gadget requires no manual effort is to delude yourself. it's a moderate amount of effort to do some extended plunging, to manually wring out the bag between washes/rinses, and also to manually wring out clothing items afterwards to finish out the process. it makes you appreciate how much less work you do by letting a washer do its thing. but in its absence -- say, during travel, or without access to a washer -- this will certainly be a low-footprint alternative. 4 stars because of the price. while i imagine you could stuff queen-sized sheets, or a thinner queen-sized blanket into this to wash, i think you'd also be giving yourself no less than at least 20 minutes of work -- plunging, rinsing, wringing, repeat -- so consider the cost of labor if that's where you're headed.

I made this purchase somewhat impulsively and almost returned it. We already have a portable electric washer and spin dryer but I wanted something incase we lost power/for traveling. I decided to keep it when I found a postcard in the package describing the origins of the product and why it was invented and how the family that produced it worked to design something so useful and portable. As a mother who travels and camps frequently saw value in having a portable washer that’s lightweight and portable. I kept it and now I use it for small loads of laundry when it’s raining and I don’t want to go outside to do laundry and have a little to do. I use this for my cloth menstrual pads, particularly dirty work clothes and small loads when I don’t have access to a regular washer. The PVC is of quality and the design is nice. I wish it came in different sizes but I think this is a good size for general use. I also sometimes have the kids help agitate their own clothes and they love helping and saying they washed their own clothes.

For what you spend you'd think they could afford a QA team to make sure you don't get sent a defective plunger, but that was too much to ask I guess... Why would they put the locking mechanism for the telescopic function inside the pole? So we can't see how cheap the material they used is?

This is misleading. It makes it seem like the clothes wringer is included. IT IS NOT. Boo.

Arrived nicely packaged and easy to use. I have been washing items in the sink. This makes it so much easier. We can also use it when we go camping. But for the now, it's been a life saver.

We bought this for rinsing our cloth diapers while camping and it's perfect for that. Give a really good rinse when no bidet is available.

Ideal for t shirts and underwear. Very easy to use and store. Great product.

I bought this item because I am planning to drive across the country car camping. This worked very well for my laundry. Even without purchasing their wringer, the clothes dried in 1/2 a day. I will use it on days I plan to stay in one location for a day or two. Its vert sturdy and packs well

bought this to go with the dezitrek wringer and they worked like a charm for me, taking minimal space for storage.

J'etait pas capable de dévisser le plunger alor j'ai pris des pince pour essayer de le d'évisser c'est extrêmement fragile je l'ai utiliser pendants 1 mois c'est tres long a laver le linge et ca n'enlève pas les taches d'huile ou de gras! Ca ne vaut rien!
