one once, what a machine! How could a woman use that?? When you put it into spin, you have to grab two handles across the tub, ( not an easy reach even for me at 6'plus) then balancing on one foot use the other to press down the spin pedal--- lifting the tub and drenched clothing out of the water-- and BANG she takes off. If you had an unbalanced load you'd be dragged all across the basement floor! The thing is on wheels for godsakes! It was also the first reducing machine I think! |
