Brilliant! 
What makes economic washers like this possible is the use of a PSC motor, which eliminates the need for a transmission, and other complex drives. The motor can be stopped and started several times a minute without over heating via a simple SPDT timer contact.
The positioning of the impeller to the right with a slight tilt helps reduce tangling I think as its trying to mimic a front load. Ideally I'd like to see the same but fully automatic- adding a water valve, drain pump and pressure switch. Fill wash drain, fill rinse drain, fill rinse drain over the course of a 35 minute cycle. A GE filter flo out tub sized wash basket would be ideal in a 27(?) inch model. US Manufacturers aren't listening, there is a growing market for low cost BOL and economy washers. | ||

Unbelievable
This sets washing machine building back to the middle ages.
There’s absolutely no quality control these machines would be lucky to last a few months. There’s no demand for this type of machine in the United States we have plenty of plastic things from laundry alternatives that are made in China that would far out do these machines. I won’t even go into worker safety etc., but I guess everyone has to start somewhere but this factory has been badly surpassed in just about any part of the world. John L | ||

You Know You Want To
I don't blame you. Follow your heart. If the wiring diagram is on the back or in the use and care manual you know the manufacturer cares about their design and the washer will be great.
I want an automatic version of this washer, preferably full size, but the one above is the next best thing. The impellar will do an excellent job of cleaning and provide loads fun to watch action. Timer gives you up to 15 minutes of wash, and you can select a vigorous two way wash action or a one way pulse wash. All fabrics are cared for this way. Quiet operation. Home Depot sells several versions and sizes of this washer, both single and twin tub: www.homedepot.com/p/VIVOH... Use and care manual: images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdf... While these are not automatic, you'd be be surprised just how much these washer accomplish for their price. | ||

The ones made for the US market are of excellent quality. Powerful, quiet, durable and all around great for a semi automatic. Users often say how little detergent you need.
(I know, I wish parents would give their kids privacy, but its the only two vids that go into concise detail on how to use these washers) | ||
