Washing machine have come a long way. I can remember my grandmother first electric washing machine had two rollers that got the water out of your clothes so they would dry on the line faster. Great video Dan
Thank ya for watching and commenting J B and my grandmother had the same type washer back in the day, ya had to watch them hands around those rollers lol!! Have a good week and stay safe!! Dan
I want this man to record my voicemail answering machine. What a great voice he has ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
😇Thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel!! I do have a strange accent lol, but thank ya for the kind words!! You have a great week!!! Dan
I actually have the original video saved in my watch later folder. When we get our bathroom built this is the washer we are going to get.
Thanks for the follow up video. Have a great week Dan.
Cool, I hope y'all do a video come time Brian, it's a nice lil washer for sure!! Thank y'all for watching sir, y'all have a great week up there!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks when do i turn the water on!!! IT wont bring in the water to the machine!! THANK YOU!
Your place looks SO peaceful. I miss living in the country in Michigan. I look forward to moving back to the country at some point. I got one of these portable washers too (different brand) -- they are great.
Thank ya for watching and commenting CoopyKat, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes sir, I wouldn't leave the country for anything, nothing like hearing the crickets and tree frogs at night lol!! I preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a great rest of the week!! Dan
Excellent update brother! That’s a sweet little machine! Thanks for sharing!
Thank ya for watching brother, you have a great week Mr D!! Dan
For anyone that is interested in something bigger Black and Decker now make a 2.0 washing machine that can wash up to 15lbs.
Hello CheekyKnob, welcome to our community and the channel!! Thank ya for the info on the bigger washer!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, have a good weekend!! Dan
Black & Decker now offers a 3.0 cubic foot portable washing machine, too. Other than capacity, I see no difference in its set-up or use from the 2.0 B&D washer..
@@eagriffith8117 I think for capacity reasons the 3.0 would be best but the 2.0 has been working great for me up to this point.
They also make a 2.7 front load machine as well which I think can work great for stacking the dryer onto one.
You are excellent you answered all my questions they should hire you at Black & Decker thank you so much
Hello kat helping, welcome to our community and he channel!! Thank ya for watching and the kind words, I tried to share all the questions that were asked and I'm glad this video helped ya out!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, come back and visit when ya can!! Have a good Thursday!! Dan
Just to add to one of the the answers. The water doesn't have to run continuously only when it needs to refill. You can set your own timer and on a gentle cycle it fills roughly every 15 minutes so you can close the water and open just before it is done with rinsing. Also there is a table with cycle times in the instruction manual so you can verify it yourself.
Thank ya for watching and commenting sir, welcome to our community and the channel!! Thank ya for the info, I need to check those cycle times out!! Have a great week!! Dan
That is a cool little washing machine. Great job answering the questions. Have a great weekend.
Thank ya for watching Mrs Donna, you have a great week mam!! Dan
Thanks for info bro. I am purchasing this washer.
Awesome, glad this video may have helped ya decide on this washer!! Thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel!!! Have a great week!! Dan
The instructions on my 0.9cu HomeLabs portable washer State not to fill the drum any more than 75%. There should be 25% room left in the drum, and that is considered max capacity.
My washer is the exact same as the one in the video, just a different brand. Design is identical. And as far as powder detergent, that is actually what the manufacturer recommends you use in this washer. I do not (lol).
I’ve tried pods. They are too strong/too much detergent for the load size. I actually use Tide Oxy Liquid detergent, and only fill the detergent cup half way to the 1 on the Tide measuring cup lid.
I use cool water 98% of the time. When I use “hot” water for things like towels & sheets, I only make it as hot as the water you’d use to take a shower. No hotter, or you can crack the drain hose, and melt the tube.
Hello Kay, welcome to our community and the channel!! Thank ya for the information on your washer, sounds like our machines are similar!! I preciate ya watching and commenting, have a good week!! Dan
I think you convinced me to get one. You should be getting sales commissions.
Thank ya for watching Mr John, welcome to the channel sir!! Awesome, I think you're gonna like this washer, 4 years later mine is still running strong!! Have a great week!! Dan
Hello Dan from the Stix, I cannot find the answer to fix my machine and you were able to help before so here's hoping. Water is coming out of the bottom, not running straight through, but I notice that water leaks out from ?? sometimes from the 2ndry lint catcher at the bottom, maybe somewhere else not sure. I turned the machine over to look under the bottom plate and noticed a tube not hooked to anything (not sure if it is supposed to be) but can't seem to find a video to what the inside "should" look like nor written answers to what may be the problem. Thanks for reading and for any suggestions you may have.
Hmmm, that' an odd one mam but the tube that's not hooked to something seem out of place. Make sure you close that secondary filter tight, hand tight as there is a gasket around that handle if I'm not mistaken. Have you tried contacting B+D regarding this issue? Dan
Thank you for this "most commonly asked questions" segment! The first five or six were all questions I had myself and now I have a good understanding of what I'm looking at without having to go all over youtube to get them answered in five or six other places. Good job! One last question, though. If my two sinks neither have a removable aerator on their faucets, am I SOL? The kit of adapters you recommend says they don't work on that type of faucet.
Thank ya for watching and commenting Doug Friendly, welcome to our community and the channel sir!! I'm glad ya found the video useful but unfortunately I don't think your faucets are going to work as one needs threads either on the outside or inside of the water source to connect the water adapter. Only option I can see is to change your faucet out if ya intend on using it on a sink. sorry sir. Dan
Can you make a video cleaning under the agitator? Mine has pillow stuffing stuck and there are no videos on TH-cam removing this part to clean and remove stuff and build up.
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to the channel!! Hmm, I'd have to do some research on that problem as I've never seen that before!! Dan
Thank you, sir 🙌🏼 You’ve been more helpful then the instruction manual 😁
Awesome, glad ya found this video helpful Mrs Jessica, welcome to the channel and our community mam!! You have a great week, stay safe!! Dan
I’d appreciate if you make a video cleaning that other drain thing on the back bottom.. I have one and I’m afraid I don’t know if I would do it right..
Hello Mrs Christina, welcome to the channel and our community mam!! There really isn't much to that secondary filter mam, just be sure to clean it outside OR use a towel to catch the water that is in the bottom of the washer. Once you start twisting that filter off, you'll see the water start to come out, pull the filter out and clean any dander that may be on the filter, replace it and you're done!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, have a good Tuesday!! Dan
Thank you
Yes mam, thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel!! Have a great Sunday!! Dan
Hi we have a black and decker washer it’s been running perfect until now it empties the water but it is not spinning to ext racy all the water from the clothes the doing cycle is not working what should we do ???😢
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to the channel!! Are you washing something really heavy or possibly changed the washing cycle, like the rapid wash setting for example? If not, I'd reach out to B+D and see if they can trouble shoot the washer for ya!! I noticed that when I use the rapid or quick cycle my clothes do not come out as "dry" after the spin cycle which isn't very long!! Hope this may help ya out some!! Dan
Dan I am having trouble with my machine I just bought it and when I turn it on it dumps water in and drains it does not fill and spin have you ever came across this problem?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Cain Ducey, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, are you washing in the proper cycle, I can't say that my machine has ever done that other than when it's going into a rinse cycle!! Dan
How do you go about clean whites is there a setting on the machine to make the Water Warm?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr James, no sir, this machine is cold water only!! Dan
Awesome video Dan!! Your content is so helpful and I’m wanting to buy this washer now. One question I do have though is the hose drain gravity based? Meaning do I have to keep it leveled or low to the ground to drain the water or can it be higher up in a sink/vanity and drain that way without me manually draining it? I appreciate your time again!
Thank ya for watching and commenting Cameron Quilies, welcome to our community and the channel!! No sir, the drain hose is not gravity based, my drain hose sits higher than the washer as my sink sits higher, when that washer goes into drain mode it discharges that water into the sink with no problems!! I hope this answers your question!! I preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a great week!! Dan
It is possible to use only the “spin” when we want to dry it more the clothes?
Thank ya for watching and commenting sir, welcome to our community and the channel!! No sir, I don't think one can set the washer to just spin only as the machine has several preset wash modes. I could be wrong, but check your owners manual and see what it says!! Dan
Thank you for this video. Have you ever had time left after a spin cycle? I've done 2 loads now and it spins once and then I have 7 mins or 5 mins left and nothing happens. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to the channel!! Which spin cycle are we talking about? There's one spin cycle after the 1st wash and another after the 2nd wash period before the machine does a long spin cycle to complete the wash program. My machine does pause momentarily after each cycle but not for 7 or 5 minutes. What I don't know is if B+D changed the programming on their newer washers. Dan
Thanks for the info on that machine. This should help a lot of folks. Stay safe and have a great weekend! Keep that shine on brother!
Thank ya for watching brother and yes sir, maybe it'll help some folks out!! Y'all have a good week my friend!! Dan
Dan I have another question because the wording in the manual is unclear. I unscrew the aerator from kitchen sink. What remains has external threads. Do I attach the sink adaptor making sure that the rubber gasket is on top or do I remove the rubber gasket and then screw on the sink adapter? The language could definitely be improved.
Hey Mrs Joan, you want to make sure that the rubber gasket is on top first before you screw it to your faucet, that gasket stops the adapter from leaking. Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks thanks Dan. Your video is very clear. The manual needs improvement. 🙂
Yes mam, the manual is kinda sketchy lol, I'm glad the video may have helped ya out some!! Dan
Nice ! Thanks u answer exactly the question I had ! Cant wait to save money and time
Hello Cin Elyse, welcome to the channel and our community mam!! Awesome, glad the video helped ya, that B+D washer is really nice!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, you have a great week!! Dan
I the exact machine just with the Magic Chef Logo. I find it more than fine.
Thank ya for watching and commenting Redmellibean, welcome to our community and the channel mam, have a good Thursday!! Dan
@Home In the Sticks I live in Apartment that has a Pulldown Faucet & My Bathroom Sink won't connect to the Hose Given to me. What advise would you give me in order to get it to work? Can I buy an Adapter for it or is there a way I can run water into a bucket and have the Hose suck the Water from there?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr James, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes sir, there are several adapter kits available on Amazon, I had one up in the link of the video as I thought I was going to need a kit myself, turned out I didn't!! Hope this helps ya out a little!! Dan
Dan my hinge broke that connects the lid to the hinge a little plastic piece just popped off when i opened it ive had it a year and a couple months warranty expired after a year do u know a way to repair it
Hmmm, I don't know id that can be replaced, will the lid stay on at all?? Dan
I haven't tried to use it yet,I'm gonna try later today it dose close but you have to wiggle in place.
It was a pretty good little washer until this happened the company said it can't be repaired had it happened 3 months ago it could of been replaced warranty expired after a year
Gracious, I hate to hear that, I'm trying to picture what broke or popped off on the lid.......? Dan
We're talking about the lid on top the washer mam? Dan
Mine drains immediately after filling up. Any ideas what it could be?
Thank ya for watching and commenting E&J, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, I don't reckon my machine has ever done that except during a rinse cycle. Have a you tried contacting B+D? Dan
Hey Dan great video. I live in an apartment complex with a laundry room. But people mess it up and break the machines sometimes. Many times people leave their clothes in the machines and others can’t use them. So I thought about getting this. My bathroom is too small to hold the machine. Could I fill the machine up and drain it without pipes? Or could I extend the water pipes? Thanks.
Thank ya for watching and commenting joebloby is me, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, reckon you could extend the water line to the machine but you'd always have to have a way to discharge the water from the drum. As far as filling the machine with water manually logically I don't see why one couldn't BUT how much water to use is the question. The machine probably has sensors around/near the drum that tells the machine how much water to add during a wash cycle, I think one would run into a problem in that sense filling the machine manually. Hope this might have helped ya out some!! Dan
Dan I bought the machine. I have a minor leak on the right side back corner. Pretty sure it's because when the machine fills it's a steady stream except for the right hand side which trickles & is probably running down outside of drum. Has anyone mentioned this w a solution? Amazon comment said that tray inside was installed wrong and he reversed it. Not sure how bc there's no room to get a screwdriver in there. I can ask for a replacement but it'll be the same problem.
When I call customer service there's no techs to speak to.
Hmmm, that's an odd one as my washer has never leaked like that before, is something lodged in piece that adds the water to the drum? Dan
Have you tried looking thru the comments on Amazon for an issue like yours? Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks lots of amazon comments of people saying it leaks from the bottom but no solutions. Nothing is blocking the intake hose.
Great video explaining the questions that everybody wants to know. I didn’t have any questions but found it very interesting learning more about it! Such a cool little machine!
Thank ya for watching Ronnie, it's certainly a good lil washing machine for sure!! Y'all have a good week sir!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks You Dan. Have a great one.
I have a Homcom Model # B61-006 Portable Washing Machine and it’s giving me an error code. The error code is DE
Any help is appreciated.
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to our community and the channel!! Gracious I'm sorry mam but I'm not familiar with that brand of washer......Have you tried contacting the manufacturer? Dan
its weird but I've never get notification of your videos. I've found you once I got a computer.

Can you wash a twin comforter?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr Rod, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes sir, I don't think this washer would have a problem washing a twin comforter!! Dan
❤Excellent video! Thank You 👍
Thank ya Mrs Tara and I thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel mam, have a good Thursday!! Dan
Nice little washer!
Thank ya sir!! Dan
Why is there two compartments in the soap despenser. I noticed in your video you didn't use it. I had to return my washer, had no idea I would have too. Do not destroy the box and note how its packed as you may need to send back
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr Fred, welcome to our community and the channel sir!! Reckon I'm not following, two compartments in the soap dispenser? Sorry you had so many problems with your washer, I've been using mine for almost 2 years with no problems at all!! Preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a good weekend!! Dan
This responded the incoming water flows thru it. It pulls out and has two compartments. Also my washer is hooked up to standard hookups. So if you clean the filter you must turn off water first
Thank you. Well done, informative and to the point. Wanted to say if your "RCA," Registered Coonass is original, you might consider making merchandize, t-shirts, boxers with the design in back. Lol. Hilarious.
Thank ya for watching and commenting R A, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes I'm shonuff a registered coonass but merch is so dang expensive to get in to lol!! Preciate ya stopping by the channel!! Dan
Hi Dan thank you for posting this video. Could you please tell me the dimensions of the lid of the washing machine and how far it sits back from the front of the machine. I would really appreciate it
Thank ya for watching D Zink, welcome to our community and the channel!! As soon as I get a chance to get to the my shop I'll hook them dimensions up for ya!! Dan
Will it wash queen size sheets
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to the channel!! I don't think this washer would have a problem washing a queen sized sheet, but that's all I would was at one time!! Have a great week!! Dan
Good info thanks Dan
Thank ya mam and I thank ya for watching Mrs Babette!! Dan
I have bought 2 of these washing machines and neither one will hold water. Goes in the top and right out the bottom. Can't find an answer online. The black and decker contact line tells me to pay to send them back to the manufacturer and beg for yet another one to not work. Sending it back cost 245.00. Doesn't seem like a good idea. I'm over it. Wtf is wrong with these machines?????
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Cathleen, welcome to our community and the channel!! WOW, sorry to hear you're having that many problems with your washer, sounds like the drain tube came loose!! I hope B+D can get ya fixed up soon!! Dan
How do you install the gray plastic bottom on the machine? I see this question everywhere and no one ever answers it.
Thank ya for watching and commenting Wildcard_17, welcome to our community and the channel!! Sorry sir, I can't help on this one as I never installed the one I had on my machine. Matter of fact, I didn't know what that grey piece of plastic was for lol!! Dan
Sure is a good video. It's been raining for the last three days on and off
Thank ya for watching my friend and it's raining now here in the Sip lol!! Have a good week!! Dan
Mine isn’t rinsing the clothes out it clicks than doesn’t rinse
Is your machine running a wash cycle but not rinsing and running a spin cycle? Dan
Really good video the guy is a genius
Thank ya for watching and commenting on the video sammy soza, welcome to our community and the channel!! Dan
Are you able to fill the washer with just a bucket?
I'm sure that's a possibility KG GROUP 2 but that's something I've never done. Dan
I am sure you can. I used to have a portable and I purchased a plastic hose from hardware store and cut to size. I would hold it over faucet till filled. Do not leave unattended. I added water, closed it till machine started on each setting to memorize the water level(pic) for softener I would do quick wash or extra rinse. My mom has this machine and she loves it.
Hi! Thank you for posting this video, it was a deciding factor and making the purchase of a portable washer. Here is my only question.....I have a pull down sprayer type faucet head....do you know of an adapter for that type of faucet to make the connection? I have searched a bit on Google but not really coming up with an answer....help? :-)
Hello Mrs Pamela, welcome to the channel and our community mam!! No mam, I don't know of an adapter kit for that style faucet, I'd imagine it's wide towards the bottom. Unfortunately, you may have to put in another water supply for this washer, I did a search myself and I didn't find anything either.....Sorry I couldn't be more helpful mam!! Thank ya for watching and commenting, if you come up with a solution, let us know!! Have a good Wednesday!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks Thank you! I'll do some additional research and see if there is anything out there..keep making videos please!😊
@@HomeInTheSticks Hi again, i promise im not stalking... :-), You can use an aerator adaptor for the pull down faucet. Its a little bit of a pain taking the aerator out when you want to wash, but it can be done. :-)
Questions for you Dan. How many rinse cycles do you need to wash and rinse in heavy duty cycle ? I like this cycle best 👌
Thank ya for watching and commenting my friend!! If I have a real dirty load of clothes, I wash and rinse twice normally, I also change the spin time as well!! Hope this answers your questions!! You have a great Sunday!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticksTy for the reply. My clothes aren't usually very dirty so by rinsing once does the include draining out the soapy water and then refills and rinses ? Or would this be considered 2 rinses to achieve this ? Heavy duty is great bc it can all be adjusted too :)
Yes that would be a normal wash cycle for me, one wash cycle and one rinse cycle😀 Dan
Thank you Dan
Hi I have a question I'm Marie from San Diego and I have the same washer but a different brand and its spins to wash but it doesn't spend to rinse
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Marie, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm that's a strange one as my machine agitates when washing, have you tried contacting customer support on your washer? Dan
What weight of washing machine
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr jack, welcome to our community and the channel sir!! This machine weighs 48.4 pounds if I'm not mistaken!! I preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a great weekend!! Dan
I’m trying to find a portable machine that has the inlets in the back any brands you can recommend? Thankyou
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Sharon, welcome to our community and the channel!! No mam I haven't come across any units that have the supply inlets on the back of the machine, other than a full sized washer.....sorry!! Dan
Do you use the wheel stopper on the furniture dolly to make the whole unit stationary? Sir
Hello ansol5566, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes I did at first but then I stopped using the wheel stoppers because my washer runs and spins smoothly!! Hope this answers your question, thank ya for watching and commenting, have a great Sunday!! Dan
After the wash cycle is over does it drain by gravity or is the water pumped out?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr John, welcome to our community and the channel!! The water is pumped out of the drum after each cycle!! Preciate ya stopping by the channel sir!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks Got it,thanks.
I just recently bought the 1.6 and my faucet leaks. The one problem is the aerator was so hard to remove, but I got it out. The hookup that goes into the faucet sprays water everywhere even with a towel over it, so I took it off and put the old aerator back and even that was hard to do, took hours when it should’ve took seconds. So that lets me know the threading on the faucet is messed uo Im assuming. So Ive tried hooking the water piece back to the faucet and its hard as hell. Again, been back at it for hours. And when I do eventually get it to screw in, water sprays all over the place. Do you have any idea what I can do? I thought about the teflon tape, but Im over it and my thumb & pointer finger look like Ive been playing with a razor blade from all the twisting. Please let me know thx!
Thank ya for watching and commenting Sha Cltr, welcome to our community and the channel!! Are we talking about hooking up the water line to your faucet? If the water line is spraying water everywhere, check to see if the washer is installed on BOTH ends of the line. Threading the adapter onto your faucet can be tricky and one can cross thread that adapter easily so be careful, ask me how I know this lol!! I hope this may answer your questions!! Dan
Can u show how to manually add water? When I do nothing happens and the washing program doesn’t start
Thank ya for watching an commenting KG GROUP 2, welcome to our community and the channel!! I have my washer hooked to a water source so I don't add water manually and I believe this washer has a sensor that tell the washer how much water to add when washing a load of clothes, you may have exceeded a limit of some sort, that's why your washer will not wash....... Dan
Hey its Dan
Yes it is lol, thank ya for watching and commenting aux1z11, welcome to the channel and our community!! Dan
Hello, I just purchased this washer and am using it now. When we put it on normal cycle and chg the setting to large load it only fills 1/2 way do you possibly know why this is happening?
Hello Kristen Wong, welcome to our community and the channel!! From using this washer I can tell y'all this, there are sensors at the bottom of the drum, the washer will fill depending on the amount/weight of the clothes. My washer has filled with a certain amount of water, stopped and added more water because of the amount of clothes I had in it. I hope this helps ya!!! Thank ya for watching and commenting, have a great Sunday!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks one more question, when mine is spinning you can hear it kind of speed up and slow down. Is this normal? It spins great but if your listening close you can hear it. Thank you Dan!
you're a legend
In my own mind lol!! Thank ya for watching and commenting!! Dan
Hello Mr. Dan! I'm considering this washer (I watched your other video on it!), but I've read a lot of reviews that say it leaks frequently. Have you experienced this?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr Devon, welcome to our community and the channel sir!! No sir, I've been running this washer for close to 2 years and I've had zero problems with anything leaking on my washer!! Preciate ya stopping by the channel, come back and visit when ya can, have a good weekend!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks thank you for the advice!
Hi Dan,
I have the exact same machine but after 2 years there is a problem.
While the drum is being filled with water (cold), the water is exiting the drain hose so it never fills completely to the point where it starts the cycle.
Do you know aht can cause this>?
Thanks
db
Hey DB, hmmm, that's a good un, any water spilling on to the floor while the drum is filling up? Could possibly be the main board in the machine that controls the different wash cycles? Wish I could help ya out more but that's one I've never heard of before, let us know if you find out anything!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks The only think that seems to work so far is that I have to drain the water from the pump filter. Once that's done I can get a couple of loads done, then it happens again.
It's possible that the actual pump has become compramised with debris like sand or lint, but I don't want to try changing it a s yet!. Tha ts a BIG job!
DB, I never thought of that as this washer has a secondary filter on the lower backside of it, matter of fact, I need to check mine lol!! Dan
When i use the rapid wash it gets stuck at 17:00. I never goes past that. Do you know how to fix that? Is there a master reset?
Thank ya for watching and commenting micjakes1!! Reckon I've never seen that error before on my machine, have you tried using the customer service number and giving B+D a call? Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks Have ANY of your washes gotten stuck so you have to start over?
I can't say that that's ever happened to me micjakes1, I start a load and 41 minutes later, I'm throwing the clothes in the dyer lol!! Dan
Hot Water In This Machine Will Ruin The Valve Seal And Overtime It May Leak So Only Use Cold Or Warm Water But NEVER Hot
Thank ya for the information Causal Developer, I couldn't stress this enough about using only cold water!! Preciate ya stopping by the channel!! Dan
Dan how do I buy change drain tube .it has a leak
Hello Mrs Brenda, welcome to the channel and our community mam!! Drain tube, are you talking about the hose that drains the water out of the washer during spin cycles? If so, you may be able to find replacement parts on B+D website possibly. Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, have a good Thursday!! Dan
Can I put a queen bed cover in it?
Hello Heather Lyn Cox, welcome to our community and the channel!! No mam, I think a queen cover would be pushing the limits of this washer, I wash full size sheets with no problems!! Hope this answers your question!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, have a good Thursday evening!! Dan
I have a quick question did yours drain while filling up?
Thank ya for watching and commenting SosTdm 617, welcome to the channel and our community!! I can't say that I've ever seen my washer drain while filling up, mine will drain when it's about to go into a spin cycle but that's about it. Hope this answers your question!! Have a good Wednesday evening!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks you're welcome and I see I just bought it today and it's doing this on the first wash on normal with a few t shirts and then when I pause it it's still draining
That's an odd one, have you tried contacting customer service? Dan
Can I buy parts to connect to my toilet supply line?
Thank ya for watching and commenting v-idea, welcome to the channel and our community!! I reckon one could find some parts to do that, I would think the connector that connects to the toilet tank/water in line would connect straight to the washer. Let us know if that works.......Dan
Why is my water not filling
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mr Douglas, welcome to our community and the channel!! So you have your water source turned on sir or is the drum not filling up with water? Dan
How do I change drain tube
That I don't know Mrs Brenda as I've never had to change the one on my machine, yet. Dan
Why does my washer keep stopping?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Aleshia, welcome to our community and the channel!! Does your washer completely stop during a cycle or pause during a washing cycle? Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks hello Mr. Dam . It is doing random pause and starts. During the cycle. It’s also not filling water all the way, just halfway.
Mrs Aleshia, the pausing and starting during the wash cycle is normal, my machine does the same thing, it's kinda like a short soak. As far as the water, the drum has sensors underneath it and that's what tells the machine how much water to add, if the washer needs more water due to the load of clothes that's in the drum, it'll add more water as needed. Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks thank you very much. My mind is at ease now.
How many watts?
Thank ya for watching and commenting The Only Space Invader, welcome to our community and the channel!! This machine running is using approximately 74 watts, pretty efficient in my opinion!! Hope this answers your question, have a good Tuesday!! Dan
Wow thats quite low for that appliance! Thank you sir
Yes sir it is!! Dan
👍😀👍
Thank ya for stopping by and watching my friend!! Dan
Please help. My lid won’t go on. It was fine then lid popped out and I can’t get it aligned to shut it now 🫢
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Kimber, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, my lid has never popped out, is there 2 indents on each side on top of the machine? I would think the lid would pop back back in there. Do let us know if ya get that lid back in and how ya did it. Dan
Omg clicked on this vid hoping the question of the secondary filter was asked and yay it was i didnt know that was a secondary filter i had an idea it possibly was that but wasnt sure thank you
Hello socorro Castillo, welcome to our community ad the channel!! Awesome, I glad the video helped ya out on that other filter!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, come back and visit when ya can, have a great week!! Dan
Anyone here live in an apartment and have a flooding episode caused by this washing machine
Thank ya for watching and commenting BYYY Yep, welcome to our community and the channel!! Flooding episode? Did the discharge hose come loose? Dan
can this washer be hooked up to washer/dryer hookups?
Yes mam, this washer will hook up to standard washer/dryer hookups!! Thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel, have a great week!! Dan
Dan, this is the best informational video on portable machines I've seen yet. I started out just looking at the cute foldable washing machines and found myself questioning the functionality of those. I originally just wanted something to replace the light loads I do in the sink for small jobs but I'm really impressed with the stability and technology of this Black and Decker! Thank you so much!
Thank ya for watching and the kind words mam and yes mam, this is a great washer for small loads of clothes, it's been working well for me thus far!! You have a great week mam, stay safe!! Dan
@@HomeInTheSticks Sounds great! Mothers Day is near and would be a wonderful gift.
Dan, I got the E2 error so now the outlet hose is flat on the ground and the machine runs fine. I clean it a lot more often and clean out the 2nd filter on the bottom. I love my B+D washer!
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to the channel!! Cool, I'm glad you're washer is working out good for ya, 4 years later mine is still running strong!! Hmmm, E2 code and discharge hose is flat on the ground? I'm curious about that....I preciate ya stopping b the channel, come back and visit sometime, have a great week!! Dan
Thank you!!! I’m currently looking into buying this machine … where would you recommend purchasing it from?
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to our community and the channel!! I purchased my washer on Amazon, three years later it's still working like a charm!! Hope this may help ya out some, have a great week!! Dan
Hey there! We just got one of these machines. The hose fits well with the sink. The issue we have is that it will pop off every so often and I think it's supposed to stay connected the whole time. I've looked up how to fix this issue, but haven't found any answers. Any ideas?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Take A Bite, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, so the adapter screws on to your faucet good, did you make sure the black washer was installed before you connected the adapter to your sink? Now the adapter that screws on to your faucet has a coupling that attaches the hose to the adapter, make sure you push the hose into the adapter, it should click, if not, that hose will fly off every time and water will go everywhere!! I hope this may help ya out some!! I preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a great weekend!! Dan
Fantastic Q&A Dan. It's always great to hear what folks think about a product after they've used it for a while. We mostly wash clothes in cold water too. In the inter that's pretty cool, but in the summer ... not so much. Take care.
Thank ya sir and I thank y'all for watching!! I was everything in cold water as well old military habit I reckon lol!! Y'all have a good Monday!! Dan
Almost perfect video and I thank you for it. I'm just getting ready to unbox my B&D 2.0 cubic foot portable washer and from your video, I can see there's no difference between my unit's connections and your smaller unit's connections. I can't *wait* to get it set up and start reducing the pile of dirty clothes in my HUGE laundry hamper. 🤣
My only gripe with the video is no closed captions.😪 Being "of an age" I've come to rely on closed captions to ensure I "hear" what I thought was said...kwim? Ah well, I think I got the gist of what I needed to know, so many thanks for that.
Hello EA Griffith, welcome to our community and the channel!! I've been looking at the B+D 2.0 version of this washer myself and if I ever need to replace the one that I have, it'll be that model lol!! Thank ya for mentioning CC, I'll start using that in my videos because I do have a funny accent!! I thank ya for watching and commenting, come back and visit when ya can, have a great week!! Dan
Hey, when I add the clothes it spun for a minute.. and never spun again
Thank ya for watching and commenting SoILOV LOV, welcome to our community and the channel!! Did ya overload the machine with clothes? If not, I'd be contacting B+D as that is a problem!! Dan
My black decker is no longer spinning and rinsing the clothes can you help?
Thank nya for watching and commenting Christabel Almonte, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmm, does your machine do anything else using the different settings? Does the machine have a burnt smell when it tries to spin? Let us know!! Dan
I recently bought this washing machine and absolutely love it! I live in a second floor apartment and was getting a little tired of going to the laundromat, found this and other machines through TH-cam videos and thought this was the best choice for me. Thank you for this video.
Awesome, glad this video helped ya on making a decision of a portable washer, mine has served me well for over 2 years now!! I thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Marcia, welcome to our community and the channel mam, have a great rest of the week!! Dan
How much does it weigh. I’m also upstairs and this old lady can’t carry 50lbs upstairs
Can someone help ne reset mine..its just beeping when i press wash
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to our community and the channel!! Is your machine giving you an error code? Have you tried unplugging the machine and plugging it back in? Do you have a reset button on the outlet you're using to power the washer? Dan
I bought one I press the bottom to wash is turn on and goes off
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Maribel, welcome to our community and the channel!! Hmmm, sounds like your buttons are sticking, have you contacted B+D? Dan
Thanks for the review! The Q & A was very good! Have a nice day Mr. Dan. God Bless.
Awesome!! Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, hope all is well with you and yours!! Dan
I just ordered one. I hope its quite enough for my 3rd floor apt. I noticed on the review videos on Amazon that most of the folks having issues fogged over lids on the inside. Which leads me to believe they were using hot water instead of the recommended cold. It could be why the issues they are having are happening.
Thank ya for watching and commenting, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes, I agree with ya 100%, some folks are determined to use hot/warm water in this machine which is a no-no!!! Dan
Love your accent.
I do have a funny accent from what I've been told lol!! Thank ya for watching and commenting, have a great week!! Dan
Great Q&A Dan. You definitely answered any questions we had about it, brother.
Have a great weekend!
Rob
Thank ya for watching Sapper and yes sir, those were some good questions for sure, maybe it'll help some other folks out too!! Y'all have a good week my brother!! Dan
Why the machine is putting water and at the same time the water is coming out?
Really good questions and really great answers! One more question. What's the price point?
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Lola!!! That machine runs about $250 - $279, sometimes it'll be on sale on Amazon!! If I'm not mistaken there's also a newer model out as well!! You have a good week mam!! Dan
What if you get wear and tear on the receiving end of the washerr
Thank ya for watching and commenting mam, welcome to our community and the channel!! Reckon I'm not following ya, where is the wear and tear happening on your machine? Dan
It's the inlet the plastic insert was broken in half and I can't attach any new one my question is can I take the piece off and place a new one then attach the hose I have a kapas portable washer
Hmmmm, I'm taking it's the water inlet for the machine.....I would think if you could find a replacement at one of the local box stores it would work. I'm not familiar with that brand machine but if that part can be taken off, it can be replaced!!! Dan
The first question was literally what I was looking around for, thank you so much. Great video
Awesome, glad this video may have helped ya out on this washer Refined Silverback inc. welcome to our community and the channel!! Have a good Wednesday evening!! Dan
Apparently the machine is supposed to be cold-water only because hot water can damage the ABS plastic parts that make up the fittings and stuff and you'll get cracks and leaks. :)
Thank ya for watching and commenting Mrs Amber, welcome to our community and the channel!! Yes mam you are 100% correct, I've washed a few things in warm water a few times with no problems but I'll stick to using nothing but cold water per the owner's manual!! I preciate ya stopping by the channel, have a great weekend!! Dan
Who would make a washer machine like that? The materials are poor quality! Sometimes hot water is a must for some clothes, like killing bedbugs, etc.
