Hi Charles,
I hadn't used it up until your e-mail arrived, which spurred me to
action! Loaded it with a pair of jeans, half a dozen tee shirts and some
underwear. Normal soiling but no grease or used diesel oil etc. Quarter
of a capful of liquid detergent and six quarts of hot water. Tumbled for
three or four minutes, drained, then rinsed three times with cold water
(eight quarts each time) before I was satisfied it was rinsed clean. It
seemed to wash just as clean as normal machine or hand washing. Apart from
one screw thread, it's made entirely from a hard plastic. Seems quite
strong, but I wouldn't subject it to any hard impacts.
My two cents: more work than a machine, less work than hand
washing. Usefully frugal on water and detergent. Corrosion free, but
needs care in storage. If it does break I'll definitely buy another!
Regards,
Martin
