I just got mine today. Took just a few minutes to unbox and read instructions. I have my first load going right now. Will line dry everything since it is so hot and sunny here. Really happy with the results.

This machine is tiny, but it has so far stood the test of time. I use this for my microfiber cloths, t-shirts, socks and other light undergarments. Cleans very well, as others have mentioned SO WELL you may need a clothing bag when washing more sensitive garments. I love being able to customize soak and wash times especially for those things that need an extra soak.

Makes a great second washer machine, now I can get all of my laundry done in one day. The only thing I wish, is that there was a cork or pipe cover to keep water from spilling out during the wash cycle, I’ve made a custom one with a wine cork and a rubber band, but it’s not beautiful like the machine!

Thanks Laundry Alternative!

Bought the Drop! Counter top washer, to use when I am working out of town on a rental house. Usually do not have large loads of clothes when working on the houses. But, it is a great little machine. Also wash my Norwex microfiber cloths when cleaning the house with the Drop! The cheapest washer is $3 per load at the coin operated laundry. Those machines do not spin the clothes dry enough. This little machine does a great job spinning out the water. Plus, able to use the little machine at the house. Saves time and money. Do not need to babysit my clothes at the laundry. Able to wash while doing other work on the house!

I had a ninja dryer for years I loved and mistakenly gave away. I got this and like it; though the washing function has somehow made little holes in a few of my more fragile pieces of clothing (merino wool, thin cotton). I would be careful with this and only use sturdy clothing in the washing function. I probably would have returned this (because I primarily bought it for more "handwash" type items), but I didn't realize this was happening until it was outside the return window. I'll still probably use it for workout clothes and stuff, and will continue to use the dryer function but its not as great as I thought it would be.

This works great for my purpose. I'm able to do small loads, which saves me money by not having to use campground laundry as much. The spin dry works really well.

This machine is great for apartment dwellers who either want to run a small load in between the larger commercial pay machines, or want to take care of delicates (that's me). It works really well! It does tend to collect lint, so I try to keep towels out of it.

Good size for small apartments

I've had my Drop! for 8 months and love it. It does take some occasional finagling to get the weight and amount of clothes right, but it's just what I need to off-set the cost of my apartment building's pricey pay washer and dryer, which I now only use for large and heavy items. I store the Drop! in a closet close to the bathroom, then set it up on a short stool in my bathtub to fill it with water from a bucket. I hang the almost-dry clothes on my patio. My only issue is that dark items often come out with lint or pet fur, and I have not yet found a way to reduce it; similarly I am not sure how keep the machine clean of the same.

I've had the Drop for over one year now. I bought it originally for RV use but have been using it at home for now before we hit the road full time. So far it has exceeded my expectations. Of course one can only wash small loads but the clothes are cleaner than with my large LG house machine. I appreciate being able to control every load via adding another round of wash session and/or rinse; this is reminiscent of old style simple machines of the past that were very efficient and easy to maintain (I hate all the bells and whistles of modern machines). Customer service is the best! (Cory, you are awesome!!). I'm considering getting a second Drop or one of the other models. I hope the company survives the current difficult times and continues to produce innovative Laundry Alternatives!!

I bought this since my apartment didn't have in-unit laundry and I wanted to do laundry with less effort, but with this unit I basically still have to give laundry my full attention.

For example it can do laundry in 30min yet I end up spending most of that time manually working with laundry or the machine (ie manual load, wash, manual reconfigure, dry, manual unload, manual reconfigure or clean) and the cycles are so short that there's little time to get anything else done (ie i'm not getting much done in 10min before having to get my hands soapy again). It being small and working quickly is nice but if I'm going to spend 30min doing small batches of laundry, then a sink and drying rack are going to save me much more time per load of laundry. Oh, and the "dry" of this machine wrings out the clothes but still leaves things damp so you need something like a drying rack anyways.

Good product, but I returned it because it doesn't save me time or effort.

I have have had the Drop for 6 months now and appreciate how practical it is. It is perfect for washing small loads you want cleaned now versus waiting to accumulate for a full load in an automatic washing machine. I have successfully washed small loads of socks, underwear, bathing suits, and microfiber cleaning cloths. I like how I can use the wash cycle for a 5 minutes, let the items soak for 30 minutes, then resume washing for another 5 or 10 minutes. I rinse the loads twice using the spinner drum. The spinner works great as long as you pack the items into the drum according to instructions. Fabrics are dry in an hour or two.

I bought this in January of last year. It still works great. However, recently the drain hose started is leaking profusely through its ridges I so will have to contact customer service to see how to change it. There was an extra one included in the shipment but I have no idea how to swap it out. Hopefully they will make the future Drop with a sturdier drain hose.
The spinner on this machine is really good. I do my gym clothes, undergarments, T-Shirts. I even washed a set of twin sheets and it is great. I am quite happy with this machine.

Just tried it out for the first time today. It is not loud. The dishwasher is louder than this machine. It washed great. 1 little spoon of liquid soap. Pulled everything out and put in small dish sink tub when switching to spin basket. Quick and easy. Used a wine bottle stopper to plug hose as it’s brought down from hook to sink. Spins fantastic. Everything is super dried out compared to the regular laundry room machine. Won’t take log to completely dry on rack in shower. Easy to move around and put away. I’m so glad we bought the Drop.

I had another brand washer before I found this one, and by far this little machine outshines it’s competitor.
Love it !!, works great, the spinner works great! Convenient and meets my needs perfectly.
So happy I found and purchased this little machine. Definitely will and have recommended it.

Pros: I swear this cleans and washes my clothes better than a regular washing machine. It has a small agitator and uses two cycles at 15 minutes each. The agitator is "aggressive". So don't be fooled by the look of its size. It is very effective and helps to clean the most aggressive stains, and simply works well. It has 3 electronic buttons you use to operate it and it is very simple to operate. Also small enough to store in my Urban micro mini studio apartment. I was honestly surprised it cleans as well as it does and maybe better than the machines in my apartment complex. Make sure to read the instructions carefully as they detail how to pack/load your clothes in the dry spinner and also instructions on using the hose (so it doesn't spill water all over whatever).

Cons:
Total plastic and do doubt how sturdy the body is long-term? MY main complaint is since the agitator really is a workhorse It has ripped several holes in some of my sweaters where the thread was weak. The problem was solved once I used a cloth bag to wash my sweaters in. Also, recommend placing your bra and under in washable net bags as it will wind the straps around your other clothing. Once again this machine is a workhouse and it isn't made for your delicates. Bag them up or wash them by hand. The benefits of this small machine outweigh the negatives by far.

I loved my washer until the unit developed holes in the hose. It now leaks out water when it washes. I only had the washer a few months. Very disappointed. I would like to hear from the company about a replacement.

I was hesitant to order this because: a) there weren't a ton of reviews, and b) would I *really* use it or would it just end up collecting dust?

I've now owned the Drop for a little over 6 months, and while I haven't used it super regularly, I appreciate having it as an option in my second-story apartment for little loads here and there. I most often wash socks, workout clothes, and other hand-wash type items in this machine. If you've only used regular, automatic washing machines before, this definitely takes more attention and a little more effort, but it's easy enough if you have some other easily-interruptible tasks happening at the same time (or ad breaks while you watch YouTube). The loads are also a lot smaller than what you'd fit in a typical washing machine.

My apartment has a tiny bathroom and there isn't a ton of space on the kitchen countertop that isn't blocked by the cabinets overhead. Between these two so-so spaces, it worked out better when I use this machine in my kitchen. I actually use both the countertop, and a chair. During the wash and rinse cycles, I place the machine on the countertop; this way it easily drains into the kitchen sink. After adding clothes and detergent, I fill the machine using water in laundry/utility buckets. When filling with my buckets of water, I am careful not to pour too quickly (or it'll splash everywhere). After the wash cycle, I drain the machine, then do the rinse cycle once or twice (whatever I feel like my clothes need), for 5-10 minutes each. Remember to drain the water after each rinse cycle.

Then for the spin cycle, I move the machine to my kitchen chair (otherwise it bangs very disturbingly against the cabinets, no bueno), and put a bucket under the drain hose. It's a little extra work but pretty easy and quick (because again, mini loads) to move the clothes from the machine into the metal spin drum. I recommend putting the drum in a bucket while you do this; the clothes are pretty drippy and wet. Once it's all set up, put everything together according to the directions, then marvel at how much water the spin cycle extracts from the clothes. If your countertop is deeper than mine, maybe you can just keep your machine on the countertop and let it drain into the sink. As the clothes get drier and lighter, the machine's spinning will get more intense. If you're drying lightweight clothing, opt for the shortest spin that will get your clothes dry.

Finally, once the spin cycle is complete, your clothes are incredibly close to dry. They will still definitely be damp to the touch, but it is so much better than you'd ever get from hand-wringing everything. So. Much. Better. And they will also dry that much faster thanks to that. I have a collapsible clothes drying rack and a boot tray that fits right under it (so if there ever is any drip, it doesn't damage the wooden floors). Let the machine dry out, then put it away where you won't trip on it so you can use your kitchen or bathroom again.

One more tip: If you want to save water, and you're doing more than one of these mini-loads, you can use the previous load's rinse (I'd recommend the second rinse...) and spin water for the next load's wash water (the one where you use detergent). You may need more buckets for this.

I love the washer but the draining hose broke/has a hole. I use it once a week for small loads. I can seem to find a replace it, I would feel bad to throw away the machine just because the hose is leaking. I can’t wash anything because when I put water it leaks everywhere

I purchased the Wonder Wash and a Spin Dryer separately from The Laundry Alternative. Both items arrived very quickly. Both products have served us well over the past 2 years. I wish I had purchased them years before for doing hand washables and sweaty athletic wear that I don't want to leave sitting around till I make my way to the laundry room in my apartment complex. My wife and I have been doing ALL or our laundry (except for blankets and other large items) in these machines, unfortunately the spin dryer wore out. Just for kicks, I thought I would ask about their 3 year warranty. And yes! They were good on their word! I will certainly be buying from The Laundry Alternative again in the future. Thanks so much for a great product and an even better customer service!!

I was excited to receive my Drop machine and looking forward to being able to do small loads of laundry while traveling in my RV, unfortunately the first unit that I received was DOA. I reached out to the company, who quickly replaced the unit with another defective unit which looked used. I was asked to send photos of the second unit, which I did, with the addition of a video showing the unit with a load of clothes in it making a horrible grinding sound.
Well, that was 6 days ago and I have yet to receive a reply, refund, or replacement. I am very disappointed with this company.

I needed something compact for our son's small apartment. His apartment complex charges 5.00 per wash and 5.00 per dry! This will save him money and will be convenient as he works odd hours, although he will have to pay wash his bedding and other larger garments. Noise level is low so it won't disturb the tenants below or above him.I've been "testing" it out until we give this to him. So, I am considering purchasing another one for myself to wash my delicates!

Washing, rinsing, spining quiet & functional. Spin cycle, clothes came out dripless. Hung clothes in shower to dry and dried in less than 6-hours. It exceeded my husband & I's expectations. We are keeping the unit & purchasing another for our RV!

I just got this little washer and I love it. Now keep in mind that you can’t put heavy weight clothing articles in this machine as cloth tends to get heavier when wet. So with that said I was able to wash a light weight pj set which is a X-Large size women that’s one load next load was a medium weight night gown underwear and slipper socks, and the last load was a light weight long sleeve t-shirt and light weight long pair of pants the wash is gentle and the spin is insane; I rinsed all clothing by hand you can drain the wash water out and put in rinse water for rinsing, I choose to do the rinse by hand. I’m so impressed by the spin cycle, all the water came out, clothes had dry patches in them. I hope they can make this machine in a bigger size it would be awesome. I’m very happy with this purchase :relaxed:️:+1:.
