[gcal]

Anyone out there have any experience with this machine?

I want to know too. It looks pretty good through the screen...

The (blue one) washer only panda is used alot by hash makers.... they recommend it based on motor size and longivity.

At 28 pounds, I should easily be able to lift it in and out of the shower. When we head out west, where a washer load can cost $3.00 or more, it should pay for itself in just a few months.

If you are talking about this one: http://www.amazon.com/Panda-Compact...61802852&sr=8-1&keywords=panda+washer+spinner The reviews are good, 4 stars and many reviews and questions there. I have seen good comments in other RV forums about this. Will you be hanging your clothes to dry? That would work in the dry west better than in a humid area.

Hmm I'm intrigued. Anyone know how much power it consumes per cycle?

We are moving to a park near Cincinnati in May and will be there for long enough to order the unit. I'll let you know.

Here's a good review, answers all the questions and shows you how by a real person, not a salesperson:


I used a similar one when I lived in Majuro during a summer season. It beats doing laundry by hand!

I'm not too impressed with it's agitation mechanism. The heavier the clothes, the more weight is on the rotating thingy to damper it's rotation. But I guess it does good enough.

I've seen a few youtube videos done on it and everyone seems to think pretty highly of it for what it is.

Yah gee golly I am so busy out in the boonies I really need a time saving device that doesn't wash my hands real good and takes up a lot of space.
Main reason to travel alone no heavy cotton easy wash undies thin sheets and a good ol bar of Mexican laundry soap. oops and a bucket and brush.

Won't the Panda's be pissed?

I have owned this machine for about a year. I really love it. It does exactly what the company says it will.

I use it in my travel trailer with ECOS detergent. I don't use it every time I do laundry but when I want to hang clothes to dry. I'm in Arizona so the wind and dry air make it a snap to dry clothes. If you are using a bucket you will think you bought a Rolls Royce.  I would recommend this product.

VanGirl, so you happen to know how much power it consumes per cycle or per minute?

Jay, in that youtube vid i posted earlier, says that the washer part uses 240 watts and the spinner uses 180 watts. He is solely on solar power and likes to measure that stuff all the time.


van Gurl, I would like one for my TT as well. How big is that thing? I know it weighs something like 25 pounds empty. But what are the dimensions?

Using a bucket? I wish! Right now, I am blowing $20 to $30 a week at the laundromat. That's more than we spend on beer, wine and pipe tobacco, for crying out loud!

Somehow I managed to ignore that when watching The video the first time haha. That's not that bad at all, perhaps it may be a future purchase
