Thank you so much for watching my review on the Panda PAN56MGW2!

Thank you! This was the first video I have found that literally shows step by step on how to use it and what each button does.
Just saying thank you for this video. I get overwhelmed hooking things up by myself and you're video was SO useful.
Alrighty homegal.... after looking online for weeks at a bunch of different portable washers, I just bought my Panda PAN56MGW2 based on this video of yours. Almost done with my 1st wash as I'm typing this and I am absolutely LOVIN' this thing! Thanks for posting! 👍🏽
After two years do you recommend?
@@elijahcamacho1152 Absolutely!!! I still have the same portable washer and dryer! Most convenient thing EVER!!!
Oh my goodness you are a lifesaver! I was about to pay a plumber to attach it and all i needed to do was in screw the faucet and put the adapter
very insightful just bought this one based of another reviewer but i love seeing a family oriented perspective :) rly shows me stuff
I agree with your reason for picking this washing machine. I also would want one that works like a regular washing machine instead of something from the 1940's.
Thank you!! Just bought mine used and this vid is helping me get familiar with how it works :)
Mine came today & my fiancé & I already put it to use ! 🙌🏾👌🏾
i have a different panda model, but your video helped me understand how to actually use it. the manual that cmes with these things is badly translated garbage. someoneelse bought the washer for me and we didn't realize that my faucet isn't compatible with the adapter setup, so we are trying to figure out how to get it to work for my junky sink. i appreciate the time you took out of your busy day to show us the walk-through of the washer, including how you hung the drain pipe and the different water levels and cycles.
Thank you so so much! For your video it has helped me with this machine and thank you for getting to the point bless you and your cute baby!
Very useful. Thank you. My Panda should arrive today.
Wasn't so sure how to use mine without it blowing it up since it's another model but everything went smooth. Great vid, thanks!
Your voice is so soothing ! :D
Verrrrrrrry helpful info. Thank you!
I just got this unit, and I wasnt sure how it would work and if it wouold fit my sink, I was looking at the quick release mount wrong. This was very helpful, thanks.
Thank You Chelsey ...Great Review... really informative...Cute baby!
I was just about to buy another washing machine until I saw your video. Thanks!
that was so helpful, thank you so much
Thank you! I'm planning on getting one.
This was really helpful. Thank you so much. I was deciding about buying one of these and I've decided to. I hope you got a bathroom spigot where you can use yours in your bathroom now. You're right, using it in the kitchen would be kind of a pain. In the way of doing other things.
Thanks for making this! I'm gonna get one!
Update: It came with cracks in it and it leaked. Sent it back.
@@peejmccormick Nooooooo!!!!! Did you get a replacment?
Aw 2 nah. I didn’t trust it. The product was super damaged. Got a full refund though.
Thank you for the video! I bought the Panda PAN56MGP3 and I love it!!! (It looks almost identical to yours.) I bought a really good dolly that has levels on it and it really keeps the shaking to a minimum. I started washing some larger loads and so far everything has come out clean. The clothes do get pretty dry (I bought one of those stand up dryers that had racks in it). Does the Air Dry setting do an entire.wash cycle? Mine did not have a funny smell. I had to rig the drain hose. It popped out of the sink a couple of times. Fortunately I was close by and caught it before the whole floor.was flooded. I don't have that problem now. I think this is a great machine! Sure beats carrying loads of laundry up and down 24 steps!! P.S. your baby is adorable. 😃
So helpful thank you !!
You're a lifesaver! Mine came tonight and the instructions are written in bad English so they are super confusing how to program the machine.
If you slide the hard plastic shell thingy on the drain hose up, it'll latch onto your sink much better, fyi.
Thank you very much for the video 👍
That's the liquid bleach dispenser. 1:27
Thank you I just purchased one for my niece.🙂
I Just got my Panda PAN56MGW2. Haven't used it yet though. Your video gave me lots of help understanding this machine. Thanks for sharing the video. BTW, your baby is very cute. Stay Blessed.
CyRussNYC Thank you so much :)
I just bought a panda but what is that plastic square with holes for? Thanks for the review.
Your voice is so relaxing and your baby is such a cutie
Thank you 😊
You can pull the cord inside that plastic thingy that makes a hook so it sticks out less and you can hang it on the sink.
Thank you for the review. It was very helpful.
Thanks for this video! Just wanted to let you know that you can hook up the washer in your bathroom if you still want to. The quick adapter that you put on your kitchen faucet has both male and female threads. Remove one of the black rubber washers from the inside and you should see the other set of threads.
Nylahbo oh yeah that’s what I had to do to hook it up to my kitchen sink but the part that I can take of my sink to hook it up (idk what it’s called lol) doesn’t come off in my bathroom lol so I tried my shower n it’s too short 😂
@@chelsey_chapp That little piece is called an aerator. Sinks have become really fancy now so I wouldn't be surprised if it can't come off. Man, that's disappointing!
I have new faucet appliances in this apartment that will not allow you to install the adapter do you have any manual instructions
How long is the quick cycle? Very helpful video, and your voice is incredibly soothing!
It is 23 minutes:) and thank you so much !
Thanks for this video ! I’ve been researching portable washers for awhile now !
I am just wondering if it has wheels and is it easy enough to move around ??
Mine doesn’t have wheels but I’m sure you can buy something to put it on that does. I actually keep mine on a towel so when I need to move it I can easily slide it around lol but before that I used to just lift it to move it, and it is pretty heavy so it wasn’t something I liked to move often.
Not sure if this tip is helpful... but I had the same problem with keeping the hose in place. In fact, the first time I used it, it got loose and sprayed water clear all over the floor and into the apartment below. The Remedy/hack, is to take the grew plastic holder that came attached to the grey hose... you can take it off, and you'll see that the holes on both ends are the perfect size to hold the end of the grey hose in place, and on the other end run the white hose through it. This will make the grey/white hose attached together, so if that's a problem. But it is super convenient! and makes connecting the thing one full motion. It has never come out since. I have also been trying to figure out where the lint filter is (I swear I have been looking over this manual! - thank you)
Okay thank you! I’ll have to try that 😊and the lint catcher is in the inside of mine, it’s the blue thing on the inside wall of the washer
Im looking to get one used, im wondering how yours hold up over the years? Do you suggest i get a new one instead? Thanks
The dryer is very handy too they sale some things you put some water and the house dont need to go out
How many times does it rinse on a quick wash? Thanks
Does it make a clicking noise during the wash cycle? Mine does.
Would you say it's pretty loud when on spin cycle
Your baby is so cute😍 I just ordered mine today to wash my baby's cloth diapers 😁
That’s awesome that’s what I bought mine for too ! 😊
Ordering one for cloth diapers as well. How does it do? Im using a twin tub for his diapers & it takes me 6 to 8 hours every other day 😐
While its washing the clothes does it always rotate a bit slow and quiet or was that because it was on a lower setting? I'm used to my washing machine going really fast and loud in the beginning and i like that way because i feel like it cleans better. great video btw it helped a lot
Yeah mine does that. It washes fast and then slow (it goes really slow just before the water drains) :)
Does the sink constantly have to be running to supply fresh water constantly? Some are like that. Thank you!!!
Yes it does :)
Is it possible to pause it during a wash cycle, to allow for soaking? And do you find that the clothes get knotted and tangled? I have used two different models of the dual tub type (wash tub + spinner tub) and my clothes get so tangled, I’m sure it must be damaging to the fibers and seams. Thanks for a dry informative review!
Yes you can pause it during the cycle :) and my clothing doesn’t really get tangled but my sheets do get tangled but I always do a quick wash when I wash clothes so maybe that’s why they don’t get tangled up
Cute baby! I stopped by your channel to check out review of this washing machine.
PixieMermaid Thank you so much 😊
Hi, maybe it will sound stupid but how do you use the softener dispenser ? Do you fill it at the beginning when you are about to start a washing cycle ? Or is it at the end ? I just can’t figure how to use it. Thank you !
I usually do it at the beginning lol I don’t know if that’s the right way but it’s worked so me so far!
how is this model with your cloth diapers? can you do a wash routine for cloth with this washer I just bought a 2.0 magic chef from walmart it will be delivered to the store in 2 days I'm praying it's not going to be to rough on the spin cycle because it seems like they have alot of power 😁 so you have been useing yours now for awhile how is it for wear and tear on the natural fibers cloth diapers? does it make that diaper chain laundry? thanks 💖
Sorry it took so long to reply! But it’s pretty good at getting my diapers clean, I would say the only thing that could be an issue is it does tangle my flats up sometimes and so far my diapers are pretty good, I don’t feel like it’s worn them out more than it would with a normal washer :)
I bought mine because of your review and recently it has started shaking violently on the spin cycle. I check and it’s level. I have tried different size loads but it is still shaking. I am also finding plastic in the washer after. Do you have any suggestions? I want to keep it.
The only time mine shakes is when the load is uneven but usually it fixes its self and I’ve never found plastic in mine. If you haven’t had it long I’d see if you could exchange it :)
Thanks
Its ok to set hot water??
How can I get in touch with tech support?
I read that the water source does need to be ON the whole time as the washer could "burn" up some settings if water didn't always flow.
It has a water pump in it for draining and intake and the pump will burn up if it has no water when it is in operation. I have a Panda PAN6360W which is this units successor and the basic design and features seemed to be based on this unit the PAN56MGW2.
This might be a silly question but do you keep the water running in the faucet the whole time?
oneluv201 Yes I do cause when it does the rinse it will keep refilling the washer if I turned off the faucet it would say theirs an error. I tired it once to see what would happen lol
oneluv201
Good question thanks for asking
You said to leave the water on the whole time? Just want to make sure I got that right. I’m nervous to. Wouldn’t I have to stop it during the wash cycle and turn it back on for rise? Let me know. Thank you
Also, I need an adapter. I got the machine without an adapter and the one I got from the hardware store doesn’t fit my faucet either but only one of my faucets will unscrew
Yes you leave the water on the whole time. :) You could try and turn it on and off but it’s just easier to leave it on because it does so many rinse cycles. And oh that suck! I don’t know a whole lot about the adapters but you could try to get ahold of the company and see if they can send you one.
How does its heavy cycle do with cleaning really dirty stuff? I have been thinking of one for my work clothes (I'm a mechanic) I generally don't get super oily, but can get pretty dirty.
I think it does great! I use it for cloth diapers and it gets them clean so I think it would get your clothes clean too 😊
It’s for bleach I have a haier one and mine says bleach it looks very similar I think it must disperse evenly so it doesn’t give bleach stains, also how does it do with cloth diaper washing can you fit a good bit of diapers in there or maybe have to do laundry everyday or 2 loads every 2 days since it’s smaller.
It washes cloth diapers really good and I have to wash twice a day only because I cloth diaper two kids and if I do it all at once it’s too full but once my son is potty trained I’ll only have to do once a day and oh thank you!
Do you think the grinding noise is normal for the washer? Mine does a little grinding noise in between rinse and washes...
I’m not sure mine does that and it hasn’t gotten any worse or anything so I’m assuming it’s normal
Will this washer work for manually filling with water instead of using the hose? I need it in a location where I can fill it with water but I cannot use the attachment.
Even though it is 3 months, I have read some people do it, but the manufacturer says no.
Also, as she was saying it is automatic, so it runs water as it rinses while spinning, and the cycles go from soak, wash, and rinse without stopping to be manually set to the next. She was saying there are other machines that the cycles need to be manually changed, those may be a better option?
Did u see that 4L right before u hit start?? Did that just confirm 4L of water vs 6 like u thought? Check it out
Hi
Thanks for ur helpful video
I used my washing machine on Quick wash and everything was great,
But then I tried to do normal wash and I got confused and was trying to turn back to Quick wash, I know I messed up,
My question is now I have water in machine can I just put machine on spin? So I can spin water out and start over again?
I do love my washing machine
Please let me know?
Thank you
Be blessed and Be safe.
I don’t remember exactly what I did because I’ve done that before too but yes I think putting it on spin will drain then spin
@@chelsey_chapp
Thank you so much for answering me back
I will try that .
Thanks so much for your video. Im going to order one online throuh Amazon. You are also a cute mom :-)
Your baby is so adorable.
Thank you :)
are there anybody know of any portable washing machine with an agitator? (the new ones) now if that thing at the bottom spins one way only like the ones did in the 60s, and 70s did, they would cleaner faster and better.
Not that I have seen, I have been researching like crazy for weeks. I believe it is all about saving space in the machine. But apparently there are things on the sides of the drum that replace or mimic the agitation.
Do you think that big hole at the bottom left is for liquid detergent?
Karma804 I’m not sure someone in the comments was saying that you are supposed to just put liquid detergent right into the washer and that’s the hole was for bleach
I
Thank you god bless your baby
Can you use HOT WATER ONLY from your water faucet? Reason I ask is that I saw some info that you CANNOT use hot water is that true?
I only use warm water and cold water because the manual says you can’t use a certain temp. I can’t remember what temperature it was unfortunately I lost the manual.
please can you do a cloth diaper wash routine with this washer please I'm getting mine in a few days and need help like do you use the quick wash 1st as a pre rinse and so on 💖 thanks for this video 👍❤ and your baby is sooo cute !!!
I’ll probably make one soon I’ve still been messing with wash cycles lol but so far what’s been working is doing a normal cycle as my pre wash and then doing a heavy wash as my main wash then sometimes I do a short wash as an extra rinse and thank you 😊
Thank you so much !!! 😁 I'm so excited we just got ours so happy to wash diapers at home and not going to the laundrymat . Thank you for your help with what cycles your useing for your diapers because I couldn't find any videos out on you tube that has an apartment washer except the ones with the separate spin side so thank you
@@chelsey_chapp how much detergent do you use , water level and how full do you fill the washer.
I have the same washer an im having troubles.
Hi Chelsey, Can you wash Queen size sheets in the washer?
Sheets would fit I wash my king size in the washer but the actual comforter doesn’t fit. I do it anyways lol but I always have to push it down into the water n half the blanket doesn’t really get cleaned so I don’t recommend it lol
O M G Your baby is so derned CUTE!
So do you leave the water on the whole time, I just got mines and it started leaving when I left it on
Yeah I leave the water on the whole time
Great video keep up the good work I did a video on my washer and dryer review and update
How many cloth diapers can you wash in this at a time?
I usually wash about 8 at a time in here 😊 I do laundry every day but when I do skip a day the washer is too full to get a good wash
does anyone have their washer on a dolly cart for ease of moving from storage to sink. I want to know if keeping it on the dolly cart affects it while it runs a wash cycle.
centurian89 I think having it on a cart would make it roll around a little when it does the spin but during the wash n stuff it would probably be okay but you could also just keep it on the cart when you store it and move it but once you use it just take it off then put it back on when laundry is done
I have mine in a dolly and it spins just fine.
They make a dolly that has wheels and adjustable feet, they say they work for washing machines. You can get them on Amazon.
Anyone else like the video just because THAT BABY IS SO CUTE OMG or is that just me?
Has anyone tried to hook this up using washing machiene hookups?
Sara Rodriguez it worked
Does this have the connectors to hook to the regular washer connector and not the sink?
Leo Virgo Nation I’m not sure I think if you look at it one amazon it might say if they do
I have read that it doesn't, it has one connection whose to the faucet, and most standard washer hookups have a hot and cold intake for the machine to control the temperature, but I'm sure you could find a hose that would work, make some adjustments, and just hook it up to the cold intake?
When and where do you pour the liquid detergent?
I just pour it right on my clothes or you could pour it in before you put your clothes in :)
Hi just wanted to know where to get the ddpter mine dint come whit one and i really want to get one for mine thanks for the video
I don’t know, you could try to get ahold of the company and let them know it didn’t come with one and they would probably just be able to send you what you need or I’m sure they have them on amazon :)
Have you had any problem with your dishwasher when using the washer?
No I haven’t had an issue and I usually end up running them at the same time too
Use net at the end of the hose it catches so much
Does this washer make a lot of noise?? I live upstairs in an apartment. N I can’t have one here but I really really want one
Abigail Manjarrez I do think people under you would hear it cause my laundry room is under my apartment and when I was down their I could hear it. It wasn’t super loud tho just sounded like a dishwasher to me.
I've seen in other videos that the little compartment you didnt know what it's for is actually for liquid bleach and you just throw the detergent directly into the washer with your clothes
Jael Garcia Oh okay that’s cool thank you so much for letting me know 😁
very good video young lady!
Did your machine come with cover bottom
I completely forgot about that! Yes mine came with a bottom cover. I haven’t put it on yet tho lol it’s still just sitting in my closet! Thanks for reminding me lol
My kitchen faucet is kind of the fancy one so I can't at all adapt it
It looks like the hose is supposed to go around the spout on your sink. I'm not sure, but it look like it!
Oh wow! I bet it can 😊 I’ll have to try that next time I use it, Thank you!
How is washing with hot water? Does it only wash cold water?
Traci Jordan The book that came with it said their was a certain temperature not to go over but I can’t remember what it was lol I do wash with warm water and cold water I just change the temp on the faucet when I start the wash. I just don’t use super hot water
That Mom Chelsey thanks 🌞
We just got one, are you still happy with it? Thanks.
Yeah I still use it daily and it’s been great :)
@@chelsey_chapp Thank you.
Can I use bed sheets and towels
Yes I’ve washed sheets and towels in it and it worked just fine :) the only thing that doesn’t work is comforters because they are too big
Hows it working out? its been over a year
It’s been working great! I haven’t had any issues yet :)
Qhi can you wash queen size sheets
Yes :) the only thing I can’t really wash are queen comforts or bigger.
Can you just add water?
I’m actually not sure maybe if you could get the exact amount of water the washer would need but I think that would be hard because it fills up and empties a few times during a wash
Can I wash a blanket with this
It depends on the size. I wash twin sized blankets just fine but queen and king blankets don’t fit well enough for them to get cleaned.
Can this work without being connected to a pipe? That is, can the water be loaded manually by buckets. I plan to put this in my bedroom.
Some people have said yes in other reviews but I have not seen a video. The manufacturer says no.
It runs all the cycles automatically including while rinsing. She mentions that other units she searched you manually turn it for each setting, maybe one of those would be better for adding water without the hookup. You would need a very large bucket for the drain hose though depending on how large a load you do.
They make other "washers" that you put the water in and then clothes in, and you turn and watch them with a handle and spin dry as well.
Your baby is gorgeous! I am distracted [ha ha ha ha :) ] by your beautiful and lovely baby during watching your video. Thus I watch it several times for the content of this helpful video. I am ordering it today!
My eyes are glued to those TV legs that look like they need to be switched
good review tho!
😂 I had to flip the legs because it’s the only way it would fit on the tv stand and thank you!
@@chelsey_chapp ahhh that's very convenient!
Or it was returned
Cuantos
The only thing is the beep Haha I hope the neighbors dont heard
Yes it’s so loud! Usually once the wash is almost done I just stand their and wait so I can quickly turn it off before it starts beeping lol
