Overview
A 3.0 cubic foot top-loading portable washing machine from Hamilton Beach with a transparent lid, electronic controls, and rolling casters for moving between rooms.
This is a larger portable washer than most twin-tub units, running fully automatic wash cycles in a single stainless steel basin rather than requiring a manual switch between wash and spin tubs. It is rated below 72 decibels and includes a delay-start function, aimed at people without hookups for a standard washer who still want automatic operation and a bigger single load.
- 3.0 cu ft stainless steel basin, top-loading
- Electronic controls with LED cycle display
- Delay-start function
- 4 rollers for repositioning
Who it's for
Suits apartment or off-grid dwellers who want an automatic top-loading washer without full plumbing hookups, including small households running the machine regularly. Less ideal for anyone needing to roll it around a home with hardwood floors, since the caster wheels are reported as small.
Pros and cons
- Fully automatic with 6 wash cycles and 3 temperatures
- Rated below 72 decibels for quiet operation
- See-through lid to monitor the wash
- Caster wheels are too small for easy rolling on some floors
- Heavier than typical portable washers, a two-person lift
- Can throw an error code on very small loads
