a bit reaching on price, wouldn't you agree? I turned the far right photo on side to get a closer view.

Providing one has the room a Maytag or other conventional washer and separate spin dryer would be a better option. Speaking from a point of capacity, finding spares, and so forth. However in terms of portability and or space savings the Super-Twin would win I suppose.
These sellers asking $$$ for twin tub or conventional washers must assume there is some sort of strong local market. You'd think such sellers would at least put the things on fleaPay and or state they are open to working with out of area buyers in hopes of remotely getting their price. I don't think members here paid nearly $500 for their SQ ST washer/spinner units even when NIB. Am I right? |

Laundress
Gotta say I have to agree with you about a fully automatic portable. But were they as easily moved as the ad makes out? I think you used to have one didn't you? The ironic thing is that, at least in the UK Supertwin version, its by far the easiest and smoothest twin tub to move although bigger and heavier than both the Hoovermatic and HP Supermatic. |

But yes, my older WP portable/convertible was very easy to shift about. More so than my Hoover TT. Then again the latter needed new casters (the originals were not only worn but marking up my floors), and the replacements are not Hoover.
With all portable laundry appliances must say in terms of shifting it really does come down to the casters, IMHO. If they are worn or dodgy then moving things about probably won't be easy. |
