Our take on the Costway Portable Washing Machine 18 LBS 8 LBS Spinner Combo

The Costway Portable Washing Machine is a twin-tub unit with an 18 lb wash drum and a separate 8 lb spin tub, built for renters, small apartments and anyone without a washer hookup. It runs on a standard outlet and fills from a faucet or hose, so no plumbing work is needed. Compared with compact front-loaders it washes faster per load and costs far less, but it is manual: you move clothes from wash to spin and drain the tubs yourself. Owners like it for small daily loads and delicates; heavy bedding and large family loads overwhelm it.

Pros

Cons
  • Manual cycle: you transfer wet clothes to the spin tub yourself
  • Spin tub holds only 8 lb, so large loads need two spin batches

What reviewers say

Owners treat it as a practical stopgap for apartments, dorms and RVs. They praise how much it washes for its size and how little setup it needs. Complaints center on the manual transfer between tubs, weak spinning of thick items and the drain hose setup.

Questions and answers

How does the twin-tub design work?
You wash in the 18 lb tub, then move the clothes by hand into the 8 lb spin tub to extract water. The two tubs run on separate timers, so you can wash one load while spinning another.
Does it need to be hooked up to plumbing?
No. It fills from a faucet using the included hose and drains into a sink, bathtub or floor drain. You do need a nearby water source and somewhere for the drain hose to empty.
Can it wash blankets and bedding?
Small blankets and throws fit, but a queen comforter is too bulky for the 18 lb drum and will not spin dry well. It suits clothes, delicates and small household items.
How dry do clothes come out?
Damp, not dry. The spin tub removes most water from thin fabrics, but thick items like jeans and towels need air drying or a dryer afterward.
Is it good for an apartment without a washer hookup?
Yes, that is its main use. It stores in a closet or corner and runs on a standard outlet, though you will handle the water hookup and draining each time.
What comes in the box?
The washer unit, a fill hose and a drain hose. A faucet adapter is usually included; check that it fits your tap before setup.
