Our verdict

A capable space-saving washer for renters and RV owners, but treat the 2.8 cu ft rating as approximate and avoid overloading it to prevent tangling.

Overview

Nictemaw's 20-lb capacity portable washing machine, a 2.8 cu ft compact washer with hot and cold dual inlets, 4 wash programs and a built-in drain pump. Built for apartments, RVs and dorms without hookups for a full-size machine.

A tangling issue on the fin-based drum, which has no agitator, came up from more than one reviewer, especially on fuller loads.

  • 20 lb rated capacity
  • 4 wash programs, 4 water levels
  • 24-hour delayed start
  • Child lock and imbalance detection

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Hot and cold dual inlets for 3 temperature options
  • Built-in drain pump handles longer hose runs
  • Quiet enough for daily apartment or RV use
Cons
  • Actual capacity may run smaller than 2.8 cu ft listed
  • Spin cycle leaves clothes wetter than a full-size washer
  • Fin-based drum can tangle fuller loads

Performance notes

The stainless steel drum has no center agitator; instead fins on the drum bottom tumble clothes from top to bottom, a gentler action than a traditional agitator washer. The spin cycle removes some water but not all, so wetter loads than a full-size machine should be expected before air drying or a dryer finishes the job.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Nictemaw NI5584-22 capacity really 2.8 cu ft?

The listing states 2.8 cu ft, but at least one reviewer measured their unit closer to 2.3 cu ft, so treat the figure as approximate.

Does the Nictemaw washer need a full plumbing hookup?

No, it uses hot and cold water inlets connected to standard fixtures plus a built-in drain pump, suited for apartments and RVs without dedicated laundry hookups.
