brand and model of washing machine?

 

[MaximumRide]

I bought it from Ray's Outdoors. Mine is the washing machine only. But you can also buy the model that has a built in spinner. I chose this one to save space and money.

But now I'd probly go for the double one...depending on how it drains. The hose isn't that great for emptying. its just thing corrugated plastic.

A word of warning, if you do choose the single one, make sure you put the water right in the machine and not through the hose into the machine, (the way the booklet tells you.) I ended up getting water in the motor... not a good result. and make sure you put it on a flat surface when in use so that it gets air underneath and doesn't blow up!
