In this video I review the Merax Portable Mini Compact Twin Tub Washing Machine and Washer Spin Cycle. This is a How To: Laundry for small apartment. It's one nice little machine. It really gets the job done. It's a great compact size and really strong. As long as you can hook up the water hose you're good money. I have special Gerry gig that I display in the video. Watch and enjoy. It's really great for anyone that wants to wash clothes but don't have a lot of space. Please comment, like & subscribe. I have lots of other great reviews coming soon.
Peace & Blessing Gary Ajene
love having a mini washer, so convenient. haven't had to use a laundry mat in a long time. machine pays for itself.
which one do you have???
@Skunky Stinkerson I agree manual is a lot ! Most people buy manual because it’s compact with no hookups required. And it cost like bare minimum $100.
Beats the hell out of going to a laundrymat.
Absolutely
Porque vocês falam demais
**hope this helps anyone** It has 2 water inlets: 1 for the wash side...1 for the spinner side. It'll spray water on the clothes while it's spinning & that's an actual "rinse" like a normal washing machine. You have to 'spin' the dirty water off the 1st wash so that when you 'rinse' you are rinsing w/ clean water. If not you're just washing (wash #2 a/k/a 'rinse') your clothes again in 1/2 dirty water & 1/2 clean water. Oh, & also you can just fill it w/ a bucket of water... it's quicker. BOL! He said it's twerking. LoL!
I've been looking for a video that shows this part
Thanx was wondering thought that
Good tip!! I just ordered this and every video I've seen on this the people just put new water in after it drains. Your tip make more sense and i hadn't even thought of that!!!
second water inlet is for adding rinse water to the spin cycle, handy for getting out suds if you use too much soap
That is how a standard washer works. Wash, spin, rinse, spin. Also you can fill the spinner up to the rim.
Agreed. That's how I do mine. I'm surprised how many people are skipping this step. And even more so how many are skipping rinsing at all. These folks got alot of soap and dirt still 8n their clothes
I spin the soapy water outta mine cause if u fill it back up to rinse it theres still soap on the clothes that gets in the clean water so its like washing em again, it doesnt rinse the soap all off
if you follow the direction and spin it after the wash and then run the rinse cycle...works great.
sumguy ncal she just said that.
Yup gotta rinse a lot more without that spin in the middle
I do the same. There's still a lot of dirty and soapy water in the clothes unless you first spin it out, then rinse.
I do the same. You have to spin out the soapy dirty water before you rinse.
If your still using this washer.... what I did was get a hand held shower head... works great
I love the video! you had me laughing "we gonna wash then rinse and spin like normal people with a brain" so true!!!
I have one of these, love it. Really suggest making a filter out of a cut off pantyhose for the hose though. Runaway lint is killer on your drain.
Use a drain screen, always. Dollar stores sell them.
People tend to spin for too long. When the water stops coming out of the drain hose, there is no point in continuing to spin, as you are just using electricity for nothing, and you are wearing out the machine faster.
The 2 water inlets are not for hot and cold water. The one on the wash side is to fill up the wash tub and the one on the spin side is to rinse your clothes in the spinner
If i move into a place that doesn’t have a washing machines, i am getting one of these! I’m so glad i came across these videos. I don’t mind hanging up my clothes and having them dry.
Okay The way you set up the water hose was smart as hell
Sold !! I’m going to purchase this machine. Thanks for the review !!
I like the way this guy did his rinse in the washer,but I also put my fabric softener in the washer when I did my rinse
I had one of these once. They had these in my grandmothers day also , Hoover use to make them. Lol this is work and encourage t to get to the next level but it gets the job done ❤
Brought tears to my eyes... ( Kinda like my old set up ) lol 👍
you can also tie a nylon stocking to the end of the drain hose to catch the lint
I have seen alot of mini washer demos as I just order a Kuppet 9lb mini washer/spinner and LOVED yours. You have personality! lol Thank you for showing that the lint flower traps worked. I had bought two of those as well and was glad to see they actually worked. My unit comes in about 7 more days can't wait to try it! THANK YOU!!
Wow 🤩 that was ghetto fabulous 🤣🥰 thanks for the video I just got one yesterday I am so excited
Five stars for charming, informative, great communicator, great guy. Love the ghetto creativity. Many thanks!!!
Best portable washer demo ever some videos don’t give you both they either give you a demo or showing you how to put it together thank you for that
Thanks for the review 👍🏽👍🏽laundromat and trips to my parents is killing me 😂
A fine hilarious brother who does his own laundry and understands gadgets...win/win.
Wash an rinse like people with brains 😂😂 loved this review so funny
i have never heard of that lint collector and ordered 8 of them. it will help me even in a laundry. thanks.
Be sure to use a piece of panty hose or similar if you put the drain hose down the bathtub drain. I pulled out allot of lent and if not I would eventually have backed up the tub.
Hi. I have been watching so many of these portable washer demos to research which washer to buy. Your video is the first one to introduce those lint filters. Those are awesome. Thanks for the tip!
FYI/ the cute little lint traps are 4.99 on EBAY or 99 cents if you order shipped from China versus 7.99 on Amazon. The world is crazy obsessed with Amazon? Almost every thing I order comes from EBAY and is always cheaper just about every time and a lot faster😉
And they don't leave your package on the porch for someone to steal at least not were I'm at. Love eBay, no Amazon for me.
Sorry, but that is a load of crap.....I have had so much trouble with ebay.....it is not cheaper and is not even close to being faster.....Amazon does not run around delivering you stuff....neither does ebay....the sellers on ebay use the same shipping as every one else....I love my UPS driver.....and I usually order from Amazon...much faster to find what you are looking for and gets here in 2 days.....always....excellent return service....so done with ebay....I don't know what kind of lint traps you need....my cost 99 cents
MY 2 CENT ON DELIVER...I CHECK THEM ALL ...ALTHOUGH YOU CAN SAVE MONEY DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU BUYING FROM EBAY I FIND THE WAIT TIME CAN BE FOREVER IF YOU GO THE CHINA ROUTE... AND THE 7.00 A MONTH I PAY ON AMAZON PRIME IS NOTHING COMPARED TO 7.OO ON WHAT ONE ITEM.. BUT THE REAL THING HERE IS HOW MUCH DO YOU ORDER BY MAIL AND WHAT YOU ORDER .. THESE BLANKETED STATEMENT DRAGGING ONE SITE AGAINST ANOTHER IS JUST BREEZY SHOPPING FOR MONEY ON SOME LEVELS DONT MATTER PEOPLE SHOPPERS... DO A LIL WORK AGAINST YOUR MONEY VALUE. CAUSE WAITING A MONTH FOR SOMETHING IS FINE IF YOU PATIENT AND NOT NEED IT. ...BUT 10.OO E0R SOMETHING THAT COULD COST YOU 5.00 IF YOU GO TO THE WALMART HAS WORKED FOR MANY OF US WHO LIVE A DIFF LIFE... ALWAYS CHECK THE SIZE AGAINST PRICES TO CAUSE SOME THINGS ARE TRULY MIS LEADING ON A PIC. AND AS FAR AS DROP OFF DELIVERY I NEVER HAD MY PACKAGE STOLEN BUT I HAVE HAD IT DELIVERED WRONG BUT I FIND WHENEVER I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH DELIVERY I CAN ALWAYS CONTACT COMPANY OR POST OFFICE TO MAKE ARRANGEMENT.. JUST A THOUGHT... NO HARM MENT
i must buy some pretty odd stuff cuz i can usually only find what im looking for on ebay. some items will be cheaper on wal mart or amazon but like i say usually i have to find it on ebay.
Aliexpress is the best, lol ! If they have what you need....and you can wait!
I like your review thought you were amusing and informative
This is the first review I found that used the lint catcher. I'm so happy because my portable washer came with it but I had no clue what it was for. Now I know, thank you!
Hey man, I just bought this thing! It's pretty awesome for how light it is. They aren't playing games with that spin cycle, it sounds like it would rip your arm right off. Ultimately, I decided to take the plunge because it has a 1-year warranty. I'm happy to be your 6th sub!
I just ordered one of these and it should be here in a couple of days. I love your hook up. I've actually got a funnel and I'm going to hook it up in the tub just like this. Great video!
I use a small bucket to dump water into the washer, since it didn’t really fit my faucet either (plus it fills very slowly that way), and now I’m shopping for a new one since it’s broken.
xxmightyonexx how did it break
devilangel777 probably by dumping water from a bucket in it 😄
These mini washing machines are genius. Great setup
Thanks! Your situation is my situation. This helped!
I have the same washer and use the lint catchers but I also use a lint catcher on the end of the drain hose. I bought mine a year ago and also picked up a Panda 110v dryer. It was only $350 for the pair and the best money I have ever spent.
I’m fortunate enough to live in an apartment with washer and dryer hookups and I have a very nice front load washer and dryer set but now I really want one of these little ones . It would be perfect for very small loads .
I have an xtra large washer and dryer but use my twin tub panda for small loads. It uses less water in the panda. I like how clean my clothes get. I can get two loads done in the time one load is done in large washer. And yes, I spin after washing and rinsing like like a normal washer. It gets more soap out and thus rinses better. ;)
”See it twerkin‘ like that?” Funny! Chocolate Gadgets, you‘re charming and engaging and you ought to be on TV.
Agreed. He could be, for sure.
Out of all the videos I have watched, your video was the most enjoyable ✊🏾
I love the creative but easier thing is to fill it up using a bucket and disregard the hoses.
I love it!!! I bought the one that’s a single washer then you turn it into a spinner. But me being who I am- I bought one almost like yours. So I can’t wait. Mind u- I have a full washer on my first level of my home but my husband is under quarantine so that’s the reason I bought the little washing machines. I didn’t even know that these babies existed. I think it’s a wonderful invention
Thank you! I'm glad I watched your demonstration and tips, I just got one of these and the instruction booklet is terrible. I'm going to get the cute little lint catchers, too.
He reminds me of that old uncle describing how to do things. I'm cracking up!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome video, thanks
Thanks for the lint trap link!!! I have the same type of washer and didn’t know what to do about that darn lint!
I found this very helpful!
Im also a New Yorker n I'm looking into buying this so thank u
Mine grabbed so much more... hardly have any in my dryer filter... your info was so helpful. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!@
I need to explain the water inlets on either side of the machine. These little machines do what a conventional washing machine does. A conventional washing machine has cycles, a normal setting is, wash, spin, rinse, spin, with this machine you do it manually. The water inlet on the washing side to fill the tub, the inlet on the spin side is to allow you to add water intermittently to spray the spinning clothes to get as much soapy water off of the spinning clothes to get them ready for the rinse cycle. Just like a conventional washer.
loved your idea of going directly from the shower! Thank you, it was worth it watching this video just for that tip alone!!!
Best review I've ever seen, thanks bro!
Thank you for this video helped answer some of my questions! I have a small apartment here in OH. I just got this in the mail! Super excited to use it!
I love your video you made me laugh today thank you so much lol wish you was here to help me set mine up I'm a old women here lol in my sixty's thank you for making it easy for me to use my new washer your the best
"Not allowed to have washing machines"= for full size HEAVY washers. Not for these. You are not doing anything wrong.Always handy to have a dictionary-- you,ay be right more often than you think :)These do not weigh more than a person. You are good✅
Having a hand held shower head works great. Just unscrew the shower head off and use the hose to fill it 👍
I went back to this to learn how to JERRI RIG THAT BAD BOI...
There's a lint trap on the inside of the washer.
Ppl say they dont work that well, that's why they end up buying some additional ones
I have the same one in this demo it doesn't have a lint trap inside the tub. I also purchased the same lint catcher because when I first time I did laundry I noticed there was a lot of lint on my clothes. The lint catchers work wonderfully.
Triple likes for the jury-rigging.
Good job on this bro, big respect to your new channel. stay real
Thank you so much for the video, I will definatelly get this machine for my tiny apartment. Oh and the intructionsare correct, this is not a regular washing machine, that is why you have to wash, spin, rinse and then spin again.
Love the video
Thank you. I will be moving into a motor home and this will save me money plus it will get my clothes clean.
A regular washer does wash spin rinse spin lol but ur funny great video
told myself the same thing lol.
What a wonderful presentation. You clearly demonstrated and told not only how it works but answered my questions on what its. Very Important for a novice to portable washing machines. Thank you.
The two water inlets aren't for hot or cold water it's to spin rinse on the dryer side 😂 great vid tho
And at 5:21 as he describes the unit does not come with a pump and water does not flow up it flows down
Pisces R'us you can use hot and cold water in the two water inlets on the portable washer and spin dryer I have one and I do it
Bro you funny af lmao. Can’t believe I watched the whole video on a portable washer.
I love the idea of xtra tubing for length and the funnel idea!
The inlet on the right is so you can run water into the spin side to get out the detergent.
Sir, great job I like your way of thinking...really helpful, I can add fabric softener in my rinse thank you.
Innovative!!!
That second inlet is if you want to rinse while you spin. I like the idea of rinsing in the wash side with water with no soap.
It's very strange to me that ppl want to rinse in such a tiny drum instead of the larger wash side, using just water. Very odd. Rinse then spin. Logic. I agree with you! That's exactly what a regular washer does. I love that you are using your brain lol!
You need to stop using hot water in it though. The instructions on some machines say that the hot water can melt the elements in the machine.
Unless your clothes are riddled with Ebola, there is no need for such hot water silly rabbit lol.
Esp with dark clothes. Use warm for white and cold for dark.
You wash then spin, then move clothes back to the wash side and rinse in fresh water. The spin is to remove excess soapy water before rinsing. That's how bmregular washers work. Wash, drain, spin ,rinse drain spin. You just have to move them manually
wow! thanks for the tip. i have one and the lint is crazy, i will get the lint collector. plus the gadget for the shower. i was using a bucket cause the tube didn't fit. i do spin between wash/rinse to get the dirty water out the clothes.
ROFLMAO 😂😂😂 He Jerry rigged the jerry rig. Turkey basters and funnels? 😂😂😂 Only my hood people. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Where is the turkey baster link?
Just get a hand held shower head and use that hose to fill it!! Unscrew the shower head first though...lol
Your hilarious! I love how you Gerry rigged it. Tfs!
hilarious video... thanks
I'm definitely getting one of these but I think I'm just gonna get a detachable showerhead and fill the basin that way. The lint collector is also brilliant. Gonna order those too. I have a cat
I got one, but a different brand. I use the top of the turkey baster and slit two holes in the top and use it from my face basin sink.
I think that would be the easiest setup for you because we have the same type of faucet and when I am done I just drop the entire thing in the washer for storage.
Great video.
filling buckets and poring the water into the washer, works too (to save extra money) [:
but im liking the inventions
I love how you threw the instruction Manuel away after the instructions said to repeatedly wash and spin the clothes 😂😂😂
this and the best choice are clones. I use a mat so it doesn't go all over the tub. shorter wash and spin cycles. you're right, those hoses are a joke. just use a bucket. a lint strainer over the tub drain and occasional vinegar/baking soda/HOTwater to clear the pipes is a good idea. to help the spinner last longer, wring out what water you can, pack it to the top but don't go over 8 pounds. 2 minutes tops. air dry over night and finish off/anti wrinkle in dryer (if you like)
Lint Collector Daisies are fantastic.
FABULOUS! I'm waiting for mines to arrive!
Thank you for the video ❤️
Brilliant!!!
You should have given it 5 stars
Good review
Love it i have it ..tooo its so great
Wow you are smart
You are too funny! Love this review, thank you!!
the intake on the spin side is not for hot/cold btw it's to rinse in the spin side if you want to.
Thank you so much for the review!!!
Also I admire that ingenuity! I'll probably have to do that here.
I seen those lint catchers on the home app which is actually Wish app for free just pay shipping
Bro, this video was very helpful in getting me to recently purchase my 1st mini washer! I actually ended up getting this same one that you got. You had me rolling during the part where you broke down your jerry rigged setup from the shower faucet. All I can is that your ideas were creative. I just can't wait to use this machine and say good bye to laundry mats! Cheers
Its perfect
Nice it beats not having nothing Just get a small apartment size dryer and you good to go
Honest and good review that covered everything I was wondering about. Thanks!
Make sure you really read the directions 😂🤣
I believe I saw in another video, that there is already a lint trap inside of the washer side. But using extra doesn't hurt either.
wow, thanx, this video really helped me decide !
Great Job!
Cool😁
I use an off cut from a garden hose with an adaptor on the basin tap. I'm in the UK, by the way.
Actually, a regular washing machine does run a spin cycle before it runs the rinse cycle and then runs another spin cycle again. It gets more soap out of your clothes. Over time you’ll develop a soap build up in your clothes and you’ll start getting rashes.
That tells you that you should never use "regular" soap. I always use "clear, for sensitive skin, non alergenic" soaps anyway. Those perfumes in soaps and drying sheets are poisonus. Your body never lies.
Dude that was awesome they wont let you have a washer but I bought one any way cause that's the kind of guy I am....lol you sound like me
