Manual working washing machine.

Louise from Tauwhare

Portable manual clothes washer - I don't know its brand but it is like EZYwash. If you google Ezywash it will show you better information.

If you google Ezywash it will show you better information. This one is missing it's handle, but you just spin the whole thing, which is easy. This model does not have the tap at the bottom, but you just drain it through the top which means you don't have to wait whilst it does it itself. These are great for camping, or for really dirty wash that you don't want to put in your regular washing machine. Uses less laundry detergent than normal and they are pressurised, when you screw up the lid. A very successful wash, rinse, but not an electric spinner! I sometimes finish off in my big machine on spinner only. Very good if you just have a medium to small load wash but urgent, or for the winter wool socks etc to go in a different load. As I have two of these, I do not have a purpose for this one any more. Keeps the power bill down.
I am on the road for a job, so it is possible I could meet in a Hamilton car park, otherwise pick up is near Tauwhare Pa. I could maybe do my shopping in Cambridge and meet there but at my convenience. And not a personal delivery to your door. I can tell you more detail in how to use it, upon purchase. Tel/text 027-358-1945.
