Here's a close up glimpse on how this model of Kuppet washes clothes czcams.com/video/Q1yUx7m-pEI/video.html
I ordered the blue one off Amazon a few months ago and I love it. I can’t get a washer or dryer in my apartment and I got tired of going to my parents every week to do laundry. I recommend this thing very strongly for anyone living the apartment life.
I ordered the blue one too. I'm in same situation. This washer is amazing! I hope it lasts!
The machine packs a punch. It's so much easier than going to the laundromat daily! I'm glad you like it.
@@waltervega8730 Update, I’ve now had mine for almost a year now (ordered it last October) and have had no issues whatsoever. Not even mold or mildew because I leave the lids open when not in use. I think it’s gonna be around for a long time

Good morning my daddy
Yesterday
I've has this one in blue for years now and use it all the time it's a lifesaver living in a apartment
They're awesome machines. It doesn't take long for them to pay for themselves over the cost of a laundromat either.
I LOVE that you are doing this outdoors! It's good to know it will work like this.
Mrs. Gayle
I pray you and your family is safe during these times. Thank you for being so detail, i appreciate it!!!
Thank you for your video! I've seen others and they skip the spin cycle to get rid of the suds. I do it like you do it. However, i add some water while it's spinning to help with the suds. The machine is amazing!
This was a cool gadget to see in action. I think my uncle got something similar for my grandmother to use since she can no longer easily go down into the basement to dry clothes and her washer was too large for just her clothes. She despises it though and says she refuses to waste her precious energy in learning a new device. lol. She's 95. So, we'll give her that. Bless her. Sparkle on! ✨
Glad you liked the video. The washer has been super helpful. It is labor intensive though. I can see why your grandmother might not care for it. Otherwise, if you don't mind the labor, it's a good item to have.
I love these portable washers I had a della for about 4 years then it finally died in me .. it served my household well! But this time I'm waiting for the same one u have to come to my doorstep! So excited. And also got a portable heater dryer too. Got tired of the spin dry thing. But now that this heated dryer is in the mix, clothes will get so dry! I thank God for these machines
That's awesome! I hope you like it as well as I do. Having a washer makes life much easier. May I ask which dryer you chose? I just looked at a couple of models earlier. Tight and compact are keys.
Is it like a clothes rack with the dryer under it ?
I am getting this exact twin tub. So happy to see a demonstration.. Thank you! 😊
You are welcome! I'm glad it helped and hope you enjoy the machine.
@@BeBodacious I will let you know how i got on, after my first wash. 😊
I think it’s so cool that you’re a camper. Thank you for sharing your portable washer and dryer❤
Thanks! I love being out there. Gizmos like this make it much easier.
I just started looking for one of those.
I'm moving into an apartment that doesn't have washer/dryer hook ups.
Thanks, great video.
TC🤠🇺🇲
I learned something new. I don't camp so I wasn't aware of this but it is pretty fascinating.
Thanks for coming over. I always learn from your channel as well. The unit is nice for camping but also can be used in apartments that don't have connections for a washer.
What a cool little machine- very impressive! :)
This is a strong little washer. I have been using it for two years.
Isn't it impressive? The motor is more powerful than I expected. The spinner works well also.
Leave the tops open to air dry so they won't get mold & mildew.
Thank you I never thought of that I will try that.
Great! Keep us posted
So useful video before purchasing it. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the review. 🙂
Nice I didn’t even know this existed!
My daughter just bought one. We live in an apartment. I think it’s gonna work out just fine. 💕
They're a big help. I hope you enjoy it and get lots of good use out of it.
It’s wonderful for apartment living. I’ve had mine since October and I love it. I hated having to go to my parents or the laundry Matt every week lol
IV been living doing it by hand and remember my daughter got one and it's been in storage for 2 years this whole time I thought it was a toy lol I'm using it for the first time I can't believe I never used it lol
Thank you for the amazing tutorial it's not difficult but I little things that you pointed out like that plastic peace I would not have known what to do
Thank you very much this was very helpful for this old man
Your comment made my day! I'm glad it helped.
Very cool, thanks for sharing
Just picked up this exact model to clean my window cleaning cloths and such don't much like the idea of them in with clothing especially with the things left behind weekly on windows 🙂
Great invention
I have one and I Love it
Just Received My Washing Machine.
Love it!
Hope it lasts 2+ years, are spares parts available
I really like your video :) and I like the Kuppet, thank you for Sharing.
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you liked the video and hope it helps.
I need this!!! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Ooh after looking at this video, I've went on Amazon and ordered me one for the apartment that I stay in since I have no traditional washer and dryer even though the hookups for one of each is in the apartment I just moved in 3 months ago, the other one I was staying in did not have a hookup at all. I hope to enjoy it when I get it and begin to use it to get good use from out of it, I do not like to have to go to coin laundry to wash and dry my clothes
How exciting! I hope you love the machine. It makes life much simpler. Mine paid for itself quickly too.
@@BeBodacious I have not got it yet, but I sure hope I do love it when I get my hands on it and start learning how to use it the more I look at this video over and over. I bet it did pay for itself
Well Guess what I finally just got me a portable washer and dryer, got delivered to me yesterday on Sunday 4-18-21, wow oh wow, it is so small, I got the blue color, got it off of a website called Wayfair got it for $106 and taxes made it be $115 and change, shipping was free, took me a couple of days to get it, very fast prompt shipping, I now look forward to trying it out and like it I hope. the spin dryer side sure is smaller than the washer side I see, I got a brand called zokop, and I did not get no service plan while ordering it at the time,
Thanks for the great video my friend 👍
Awesome review and tutorial. ❤️
Thank you. I'm glad it was helpful.
I have the same one to save you time. You can keep clothes in spinner and just poor water on clothes while spinning to rinse.
That's true. I'll have to try that more often.
Is it easy to hook it up?
There really aren't hook ups like with a regular washer.
That's what I do
I just bought one..a different name but it's same machine. It's called Zeny, and ita blue..it's fantastic! I live in a small studio apartment in the City and i just got it today and probably washed 4 loads. It actually fits quite a lot of items. I pour water over the spin cycle and it really helps a lot . I than only have to rinse it once. This machine is amazing. The spinner practically leaves the clothes almost dry. I already made my money back on these 4 loads.
My mum always used a hotpoint twin tub, wash in one, spin part put water in an spin, rinse, n drain same time, not washer part, then dry..
wow nice one so amazing washing machine, i like your hat
Mine arrives in 2 days I’m so excited 😃to finally wash at home with out going to the laundry mat that aren’t so clean in my area 😔
Congratulations! The washer made my life easier. I hope you enjoy having yours.
@@BeBodacious thank you 😊
@@purejoy1985 I’m in love with my wash/spin from Kuppet. Works great in my tiny apartment. I don’t mind the small loads either because it’s still a pretty good amount that fits inside! The biggest thing I washed so far was my daughter’s blankets and big beach towels. I had to spin the towels one bye one but all worth it when they dry hanging up the same day.
You won't regret it! I just got mine. And it's amazing! How did i not know this? Could have been doing my own laundry instead of dropping off at laundromat.
It’s so cute I want one
Thanks for sharing 😊
Great video
I'm soooooo in love with mine! I'm telling you if you're thinking about ordering it, DO IT! IT will change your life!
Yes indeed! It is a very helpful piece of equipment. The spinner is awesome!
I just got mine today! For the 1st time I'm actually looking 4ward 2doing laundry! Lol I'm soo glad cuz I Can't Stand doing laundry in my building complex-gotta wait for a free machine sometimes or I step away n someone took my stuff out the machine cuz they couldn't wait a few min 4me 2get back! Dont touch my stuff bish how dare u? Ooh I'm soo glad that's over!
Mine came today, can't wait to use it 😁
How are you liking yours so far??
@@marylinramos4300 I love it! She is still going strong!!
Started using mine a couple days ago.(had it packed away) LOVE it!!
Some trials and errors, nothing major. Careful w/soap, lighter loads gd I could do 4/5 shirts. Leggings/socks/ undies/sheets/ sm towels not all together...split ups. I squeezed out heavier items before spin. It's really easy. Follow you tubers use. The instruction booklet ??? I had one issue w/water drips from under back of spin side. ? Unlevel clothes in spinner bounced around until rearranged. Anyone else have under drain hose water leak? I think it's a great little item. Done 10-15 loads. Only laundry runs for certain stuff.
Yes, you definitely have to be careful with the soap. My favorite is Dropps that I order from Amazon but I use a tiny bit of liquid if I'm out of those. I haven't had any problems with the water leak. Is the hose broken? If so, you might be able to pick general purpose hose up at Lowe's or Home Depot.
the latest version is a single tub that can wash in the tub then spin the tub, its saves space, but you obviously cant wash and spin at the same time. we run ours off a modified sine wave inverter but no doubt it would like a pure sine wave more. our inverter says ours runs at like 160w/200w. theres no real 'better than any other brand' of these there all one factory that makes them for resellers from the cheap ones to the (even) panasonic branded ones, so if you have never heard of kuppet, dont be put off or think its a lower quality, its the same as the rest so its worth a buy just the same. if you have the space, they are great addition!
The specs escape me right now but they're probably similar to what yours is reading. We use a PWM right now. I suspect you're right on the factory. Thanks for telling me about the newer model. I've used this one over a year and a half and didn't know. The other sounds like a real space saver.
@@BeBodacious I must make a video on ours it was a dumpster find lol.
What a find!!
I've had a Kuppet for over 2 years and spinner broke at lid, a connection issue I think. Ready to buy another one!!!
That's so cool! Did you get the same style?
Thanks for the useful information. I noticed u mentioned using the detergent pods do u have to cut in half or does the water get too sudsy?
The Dropps brand that I use is low sudsing. They work much better in this type of washing machine than liquid, powder or other pods. Liquid is a good back up if I run out or forget to bring the Dropps with me on the road. You just don't need to use much of the liquid because it creates suds so easily.
This would help very much washing clothes
It's a pad and is to protect your clothes from flying out while spin drying. Other wise ur clothes could wind up out side the tub and at the bottom, and getting it's a pain in the neck to retrieve.
That does sound like a nightmare! I'm glad the pad works so well.
@@BeBodacious it really is. I’ve gotten 2 socks stuck in mine and I still haven’t been able to get them out. I didn’t know what the gizmo (as you referred to it) was for so I just didn’t use it at first lol
I have that same one I love it I just don’t over fill mine but I fill it with water to make sure the clothes get clean and I drain the water then I add clean water again with soap and rewash again then drain it and rinse twice I know it might be to much but my clothes is clean..
These are definitely helpful machines! I sometimes use two rinses also. It kind of depends on how dirty the clothes are.
Which size is this one, I missed it.
Kust gotmmine 3.days ago.and kow.the washer won't turn...find my manual or.anythingnonlinenon how tonfix it. :'(
When washing, does it start to wash then stop then wash (agitate) then stop all though the wash cycle and then all throught rinse cycle or does it start then stop then start and then keep agitating all through wash cycle as a full-size would do?
Hi @gary ranieri It changes direction. I did a shorts video of the washing action of the machine. Hope it helps! czcams.com/video/Q1yUx7m-pEI/video.html
I love mine! However the spin dryer stopped working. By any chance do you have the manual or know where can I find it? TIA
Ouch. That's a shame. I am not sure if mine even came with a manual. Have you tried contacting them on Instagram?
I want one I like the purple one
It's a great color!
I had a machine like this in 1983. I lived in an apartment and no washer hookup, my daughter was only one and going to the laundry was difficult, mine was much bigger but same set up. It could wash 7 big bath towels or 5 adult size jeans. I used it for years until the pump started leaking so bad and I could no longer get parts. I Hooke it to the kitchen sink as it had wheels so you could push to where needed. The hung clothes on the line to dry. The best thing I could do an extra spin so they would dry quicker. I even did full size set of sheets with the pillow cases in it. It was awsome.
I purchased one recently and I think I’m using it wrong. When I turn the select button to drain it gets crooked. I have water underneath the spinner and I don’t know what those other hose hookups are for and how to use them.
I'm sorry to have just now seen your comment. Did it get worked out?
It’s cute.
Thanks! It's a big help when we go camping.
Where can I get the white thing for ringing my clothes
Amazon has them. eBay also has the spin caps amzn.to/3mdg70W
Do any of the campgrounds have washer / dryer areas?
Many of the private campgrounds and state parks have laundromats. Not all though. Some have zero facilities. That's the case when boondocking as well.
How much and where to buy?
Measuring a tiny bit of detergent for that small machine is going to save you money on Dropps because it only uses a little bit of detergent. And just use your pods for the home large machine.
You're right. It's likely cheaper to use a small amount of detergent. I try to minimize liquids in the van to prevent spills or leaks. Even small leaks can be a big problem in a van. Very good point about cost though.
I would add my soap to my water before putting clothes into the washer.
Good idea. 👍🏻
Good point. It seems to work better to put it in last if I'm using a bucket. If I'm using a garden hose, I'll add the detergent first.
I fill mines up with water first, 🧼 and then add my clothes.
The Gizmo is called a spin cap
this washing machine really have many brands , they tend to overheat when ran on too many 15min programs programs in sequence
Ty!!!
You are right. I over heated it one time.
I have one but i don't have the gizmo do youu have a link?
No, I'm sorry I don't. Let me try to local my paperwork to see if there's contact information.
I have a question to ask about this, let's say if I wanted to use liquid fabric softener after I be done wash my load of clothes, can I then refill the washer again with water and just use the liquid fabric softener to make my clothes smell like fabric softener and then put them in the spin dryer to spin dry and then hang them to let them air dry, I see that Walmart carries some clothes drying rack that I can let'em hang on in my small apartment and that way it'll leave my apartment smelling good with that fabric softener off my clothes,
Yes, you can. Just add less than you usually do. I use a scant tablespoon.
@@BeBodacious Awwww ok then thank you so much and another thing can I also use bleach for my white clothes at the time of using laundry 🧺 detergent to wash the white clothes and is it good to wash dark clothes separate from light clothing so that the dark clothes do not make the bright clothes look kind of dark or fade type
Yes. Just don't use a lot of it. You only need a little of anything in these machines. That means less detergent, bleach and fabric softener and smaller loads.
Separating clothes will keep your colors brighter longer and your whites brighter. Reds and other bright colors should be washed by themselves a few times until you know they won't fade. It's always a good idea to separate colors no matter what type of machine you use.
@@BeBodacious ok then I will take that into consideration and so just that what you said, with the colors from bright to dark colors and small amounts of laundry detergent and bleach and liquid fabric softener. I like the portable washer and spin dryer, as it spin dry my clothes they do not take that long to get dry at all when I hang them on my new dryer rack that I got from Walmart,
I’ve had this in my RV for a year, works great, however, my drive belt is wearing out. Kuppett does not even have a part number or dealer to order from! Terrible customer service! Does anyone know of a replacement belt?
Any chance an auto parts store or Grainger Supply would have a replacement part? Or, McMaster maybe?
Buy lubricant spray and put it on the belt, it works wonders.
Does the washer machine have to be plugged in ???
Yes. It needs electricity.
Fof all the Brits in here who are 50 plus I bet you remember twin tubs! Servis super twin lll, hotpoint and hoovermatic.
Mine will not wash a small pair of ladies jeans it stalls and won’t turn anyone have this problem. Only one pair of jeans. Thanks
It may be out of balance. Is there anything of similar weight that you could put in with the jeans?
Does the dryer part work like a salad spinner?
Yes, only it has much more force.
There are A LOT Of snob's on social media making FUN Of these washing machines but they WORK QUITE WELL.
The skeptics can be converted. A friend saw me using the washer while I was testing it on solar and came over. We lived at the edge of Dixie Alley (Tornado Alley of the south). She was hugely skeptical about van life, the washer, my solar on the van etc. I explained that what she called weird would let me have clean clothes even in a disaster. She was a believer when she left.
Mines didn't come with a filter : (
Neither did mine ☹️
What about Washing jeans ?
I'm a size 22 and can wash a pair of jeans and couple of t-shirts. The spinner does a pretty good job. Jeans take extra time to dry though. I'd allow at least overnight in a bathroom or room with good air flow.
It could be me but it doesn't look like u have enough water in there👀
It doesn’t fill up the whole way. There’s a hole in the plastic that separates the two sides so you can’t over fill it. But you don’t really need a lot of water, honestly.
Anybody have one of these and have water stuck inside? Like my dryer has water in it rn 😭
Is anything caught in your drainage line?
Who else’s dryer is not spinning no more anyone got a solution ?
Maybe check to see if anything is caught around it that you can get out? Otherwise I have no idea.
LOL, just because you are camping out, doesn't give us an excuse to not wash clothes. LOL
I agree. I hate it but I agree. lol
I wished we could have this kind of machine in our apartment We are not allowed
Ask your landlord or apartment manager before using this machine. Check your rental lease as well to see what it says. My lease says I can't install a washer and dryer in my apartment. Plugging in a machine is not an installation; if that was an installation, I couldn't have a fridge or oven or microwave. Maybe you could have it since this machine is meant for apartments.
Ashame its no longer available
I had not realized that. They all seem to be having supply issues. From what I can tell, this ZenStyle seems to be the same down to the RPM. amzn.to/3p1mF13 Thank you so much for telling me. I appreciate it and hope the link helps.
@@BeBodacious my husband found a blue version and bought it off Walmart and we were able to purchase a 3 year protection plan just incase. We live out in the country and this will seriously help us since we only have a hand water pump. The laundry matt is expensive and keeps putting holes in our clothes.Cant wait!

I just go to the reiver and find a big rock and wash my clothes and then hang dry them outside this is cheapest way 💀💄👄💋
Yeah, but those rocks get awfully heavy.
