Does it need to be hooked up to plumbing?

No. You fill the tub with a hose or by hand and the drain hose empties by gravity, so it only needs a drain lower than the machine.

How much clothes does a 20 lb capacity hold?

About a small family's daily load of shirts, pants and underwear. Bulky items like comforters fill the tub quickly and are better split into smaller loads.

Do clothes come out dry?

No. The spin tub removes excess water but leaves clothes damp, so they still need line or rack drying.

Can I use it in an RV?

Yes. It is built for RVs, campers and small apartments, and two people can lift it. Secure it while traveling and check that the drain hose reaches your gray water outlet.

How do I move clothes from washing to spinning?

By hand. After the wash cycle you lift the wet clothes into the separate spin tub, then run the spin cycle.

No. It uses the water you put in, so fill it with warm water from your tap or heater if you want a warm wash.

Our take on the Himimi 20 lbs Portable Washing Machine with Tempered Glass Lid

The Himimi 20 lbs Portable Washing Machine is a twin-tub washer with a wash drum and a separate spin dryer, built for RVs, apartments, dorms and small homes without a laundry hookup. Its tempered glass lid lets you watch the wash cycle, and the 20 lb rating covers a small family's daily load of clothes. It fills from a hose or by hand and drains by gravity, so it needs no plumbing. Against compact front-loaders it costs far less and needs no installation, but it washes smaller loads, spins less dry and skips the heated wash and automatic cycles full-size machines have.
