## Description

If you’re looking for a highly portable, hand operated washing machine that’s economical, eco friendly and leaves your clothes sparkling clean, Then the amazing Wonder Wash™ is just what you need. Cleans laundry in 1 to 2 minutes Pays for itself within 60 days. Fully portable, no hookup required Gentler on clothes. Ideal for delicates Brand new, patent-pending lid snaps on and off in one motion A hand-powered, portable washer that can clean your clothes in a flash, the revolutionary Wonder Wash® is the next generation in green, cleaner laundry alternatives. And thanks to its compact design, it’s an ideal laundry solution for apartments, campers, single people, RV's, mobile homes, cabins, and anyone who frequently washes small loads. Weighing in at under 6 lbs., pound for pound this hand crank washing machine has a much larger capacity than anything else on the market, when you consider electric washers can weigh up to 50 lbs. and take up much more space. Why pay more to go Green? Unlike many overpriced eco-friendly products, The Wonder Wash™ is great value and not prohibitively priced.  Which is how it should be, seeing as you’ll be doing the right thing and reducing your footprint on the environment. Due to its great value price tag, and impressive wash capabilities, this fantastic little machine will pay for itself within two months of arrival. And when you add to this that there’s no need for any more trips to the laundry, and you could realistically save thousands over the life of the machine, while doing your bit for the planet. The gentler way to clean clothes: The WonderWash’s™ design means it’s much gentler on clothes, and unlike some electric mini washers, does not have an agitator that can snag, tear and rip your clothes. As a result, your favourite wardrobe items will retain their look and feel – and last you longer! Invented out of necessity: The Wonder Wash™  portable washer was invented in South Africa many years ago as a practical product for large, low-income households lacking access to running water and electricity, and who wanted a gentler alternative to frequent hand washing. Not only did they have to lug water long distances. As the hand-powered washing machine uses 90% less water than regular washing machines, it was the perfect solution. Built to last: With no motor or internal moving parts, The WonderWash™ is designed to last much longer than the average electric washing machines. All our products come with a 3 year warranty because we really do have your best interest at heart. So how big is it? Dimensions: 12" x 12" x 16" Washing capacity: 7-8 dress shirts/ 10 T-shirts/ 2 pairs of jeans (Assembly is needed)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: You actually crank this.  Does it crank easily or is your arm sore afterwards?**
A: Sandra, the short answer is "a full load is a rather heavy crank BUT you can take all the time you want AND you can do smaller loads."  It really helps to put it on a low table or computer desk (27" to 30") so your arm cranks it in a natural position.A long answer begins by adding weights.  A heavy load is the worst case scenario so let's use that.  1.5gal water weighs 12 lbs and your clothes might weigh, oh, let's say 3 lbs.  That's 15 lbs you need to crank for a 2 minute wash plus a 2 minute rinse.  Again, you can take breaks if your arm gets tired.  And you can use your other arm to help the tub do its revolutions.Hope this helps!  Bonus tip: always add the water first, clothes last.

**Q: Does it get all of the detergent and softner out when rinsing the clothes?**
A: It does a pretty good job. As with conventional washing machines, if you use too much detergent it won't rinse as well. You can also use a spin dryer and skip rinsing in the Wonderwash altogether. Just dunk the clothes quickly in cold water, then drop in a spin dryer sopping wet. The high RPMs remove a great deal of detergent. People normally think of rinsing as the only way to remove detergent from the clothes, but higher RPM spin cycles also do a great job removing detergent.

**Q: how many items fit in this product?**
A: We usually don't pack more than 6 large mens t-shirts. The clothes need space to move around in order to get clean. Usually one pair of jeans will fit. Sometimes you can put two pairs of women's jeans if they are a thinner material. I've done some larger loads of light clothes like underwear, undershirts, and tanks. I wash many pairs of socks by themselves (up to 15 pairs at a time).

**Q: How dry are the clothes after washing?  One of the challenges I have with sink washing is it takes forever to air dry.**
A: Very wet and it is amazing how long it takes clothes to dry that way.  That is why I bought a mini-dryer as well so for about $100 total for the washer and dryer, our family cleans delicates and daily wash when we don't have a full load in these units.  The kids actually have fun doing the laundry and we leave the majority of clothes for our front-loaders.  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HT0958/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
