Guys, i need an advice.
But before we start another rant about modern appliances let me put some things very clear.
1) I'm desperate for a washing machine that can wash my uniform at once. Up to the moment i'm using a Brastemp Eggo (Eco-Egg) that washes no more than a shirt or 4 pairs of socks at a time. I work all day long and when i arrive back home super tired i need to run 4 cycles only to do my uniform (pants, shirt, apron and vest). Then i squeeze everything by hand and sleep with the thermostat set to 90F to dry the clothes for the next morning (i sleep roasting and wake up with my bed soaking because i sweat like a pig.
2) My budget is low. I'm trying to keep it as cheap as possible. Also, the hotel manager won't authorize me to have a full size washer. I already talked to him. He authorized me to have one of those very small ones.
3) I did some research. the two models that fit my budget and my needs are the following:
Haier 1 cu ft - http://www.walmart.com/ip/Haier-1.0-Cubic-Foot-Portable-Washing-Machine/13346456
RCA 0.9 cu ft - http://www.walmart.com/ip/RCA-0.9-cu-ft-Portable-Washer-White/38193253
I don't care if they won't last too long of if they are too small or if there are better options that are full size or if they are not speed queen or not made in USA, or sold by Walmart, or whatever. I know both machines are crappy but that's what i can afford now and what the hotel manager will allow me to have here. This will be temporary and I'm going to use this little washer until i move to an apartment and be able to buy a decent full size washer.
They spin, so no matter if the spin speed is poor or not, it will definitely be better than squeeze by hand.
Now, the question number 1:
Which of them is better? The haier is a little bigger, but the RCA has more cycles and I think it has extra rinse options. The Haier lid looks too fragile, the RCA lid also looks fragile, but a little better than the Haier.
On the other hand, the haier is more "famous". Probably some members have or had them. opinions please?
Question number 2:
Is there any member that has any of those washers willing to sell it? Please message me, i can buy it if the price/distance is reasonable.
I have to buy everything for my new home, from mattress to plates and flatware, so a dollar not spent is a big thing for me.
Please let me know your answers asap. My payday is on Friday morning and I'll ask Darryl to order a washer as soon as I talk to him tonight.
