Get yourself a C.T. Childers "Rapid Washer"
Best thing since sliced bread for hand laundry. Ask one how one knows..... You can find vintage originals on fleaPay, estate sales, thrifts and other usual sources. They are also made new by the Amish and sold at various outlets including Amazon.com www.amazon.com/C-T-Childe... www.lehmans.com/product/rapid-la... | ||

"Doing laundry by hand or with such things as plungers gets old really fast."
Maybe, but then again maybe not. It really all comes down to several factors. Have three "possers" including a German one as seen in this video. Am here to tell you of the three the C.T. Childers "Rapid Washer" and German posser work a treat. It only takes a few minutes with either for all but the most grimy loads to wash clean. Change to rinse water, few more minutes and *bang, zoom, boom*, am done. Maybe if feeling a bit luxurious will opt for a second rinse before bunging things into spin dryer. My vintage Miele takes about an hour for a load of wash. The two AEG Lavamats 90 minutes or more for just a short cycle. Sometimes one just doesn't have that kind of time. Can bang out small loads in less than 30 minutes from start to getting things out of spin drier. Done and dusted. | ||

Mine is an older "rapid washer" made from tinned steel with a galvanized coating. Spots here and there on outside have a bit of rust and there is some inside, but nothing serious. Nor has any of rust bothered washing done with the thing.
Newer ones are less hardy IIRC and yes will rust if not dried and aired well after using. I just swing mines about to expel any remaining water, then leave it upside down for a bit to drain and air out. When boilers are on for heat will leave it near rads as well. So far nothing has snagged either. Have done fine linens, jeans, shirts, etc.. with no problems. | ||
