An alternative to a manual washing machine?

I received this product hoping to use it to twist fabric mermaid tails when I go camping so they don't get wet day after day. I ran a test spin cycle on a woven blanket that I had to hand wash anyway and it worked really well! For anyone thinking of using it this way, I *strongly* recommend loading it as evenly as possible. It'll still bounce and you'll get a good workout holding it, so you can start your daily arm workout with this as a warm-up if you like! XD I placed it at chest level for a better grip considering I'm only 5ft 2" tall and holding it by the handles doesn't happen. Start slow and pull a little harder as it comes. around to help pick up speed instead of pushing. I did about 15 turns of the handle and emptied about 4-5 rounds each time. What you spin may vary depending on these quantities. much water. For use as a manual washing machine: maybe? I haven't tried using it that way. You have to clog the drain somehow. , The pillar can interfere. FIRST PHOTO: Some reviewers said small flakes of plastic fell out when wringing them out. I think I found the reason. If the basket wobbles it will inevitably hit the rubber against the brake, resetting it, meaning normal use of the brake will also reset. I didn't use it at all as it stopped spinning on its own after a few laps, so I decided to remove the rubber piece entirely. SECOND PHOTO: I put my Mertailor Whimsy 3 tail in to see if it would fit and it does! I look forward to using it for its intended purpose! ADVANTAGES: - Looks well made - Handle, connection/locking point and basket post are all metal. It rotates on a ball bearing below the handle's locking point. - The cover is easy to put on (twist the knob a little to put it in place. CONS: - Brake pads are poor quality and come off - It's a bit pricey for what it is (I got $129.99 I probably would have capped the price closer to $90. Maybe the cost will help offset the shipping, which would be understandable then. Would I buy again? Yes!
