- Does it need to be hooked up to plumbing?
- No. You fill it with a hose or by hand and drain it with the built-in pump into a sink, tub or standpipe. It does need a nearby drain and a power outlet.
- Is it fully automatic?
- No. It is semi-automatic: you set the water level and wash time on the knob, then move clothes to the spin side and drain manually.
- How much can it wash at once?
- The 26 lb total capacity covers a small-to-medium load, such as a few days of clothes or a blanket. Split heavy items across loads to avoid overloading the spin tub.
- Does it have a hot water connection?
- No. It has no hot-fill valve, so you add warm water yourself if you want a warmer wash.
- How wide is it?
- Listings give the width inconsistently, around 26.5 inches in one place. Measure your intended space and leave clearance for the lid and hoses.
- Is it Energy Star certified?
- Yes, and it uses about 5 gallons or less per load, which is low for its capacity.
