I use this for delicate clothes/cold washing clothes. Everything else I wash in a normal washing machine that is shared at 95 degrees. Here are the things I noticed: You need of course some extensions for the drainage. You should preferably put it on a higher surface so it drains better. The machine is around 60 cm * 40 cm area, in case you need a table. The machine does not tolerate extremely warm water. You should not put it in the bathroom or in a wet floor, cause there is ventilation for the electric motor when its on, be careful otherwise. The lids are delicate, particularly the one of the centrifuge, close them slowly. Knobs and overall function: 1. There is a washing timer knob up to 15 minutes. 2. There are 2 washing choices in another knob : soft and strong washing (to be honest I don't see much difference between them) and this knob also is for drainage. Took me some time to figure it out and a bit of flooding. lol 3. The centrifuge knob is pretty much time based (5 min). Other things: There is a plastic cap, that comes inside the washing machine, you should pay attention when you open the box cause you might ask yourself what's this plastic for, but you just put it on top of the drying clothes in the centrifuge compartment, so that they don't "fly away". Washing instructions that have worked for me: I only put one heavy item per wash with few other items, I would say a sweater/towel is a heavy item. I put bunch of socks and underwear and light shirts with no problem. If you feel the washing machine is having difficulties moving the clothes around, then remove one of the items, but put more water first cause sometimes is just a bit of water missing, but don't go above the line cause it splashes everywhere. So I leave overnight a small load of clothes with water and a desinfectant (sagrotan, dettol or impresan), then in the morning I rinse that water and use a normal soap, I do 15 minutes and then I repeat that cycle to do half an hour, but I wait some 15 minutes doing other stuff cause the small motor of the machine gets warm and I don't want it to get overheated. I think for items that are relatively clean I would say 15 minutes are enough. Then I rinse that water and put water with desinfectant again and rinse. So in total 2 washes and a rinse. The water that comes out comes with a bit of threads and fabric stuff/color. So put a small filter in the end of your drainage tube. Clean the machine between uses, cause there will also be some threads at the bottom. I wash: whites, beiges/yellow, pinks/reds/oranges, brown and greens, light blues/light grays, only dark blues, only blacks, only dark grays. Soft fabrics with soft fabrics. Strong fabrics with strong fabrics. I like to keep the colors vivid, so I don't mix so much the colors, that's why I prefer this washing machine cause it is small and I have small loads of different colors. I Centrifuge the weight of one female shirt and 2 socks for 5 minutes, 2x. And then I let the small motor get colder and finish all the clothes. I usually do other stuff in between. If it sounds weird it is unbalanced and you need to open it and place the clothes better. I put a heavy bag of rice on top sometimes to keep it steady, or if I have time I wait there holding it. The clothes are relatively dry and then I iron them or hang them next to a radiator. The most important thing, is not to overload it and not overheat the centrifuge. Some people complained their machine was dirty, mine wasn't, but just do an empty initial wash.
To uporabljam za občutljiva oblačila/hladno pranje oblačil. Vse ostalo perem v navadnem pralnem stroju, ki ga delim na 95 stopinj. Tukaj so stvari, ki sem jih opazil: Potrebujete seveda nekaj podaljškov za drenažo. Po možnosti ga postavite na višjo površino, da bolje odteče. Stroj je velik okoli 60 cm * 40 cm, če potrebujete mizo. Stroj ne prenaša izjemno tople vode. Ne postavljajte ga v kopalnico ali na mokra tla, ker je elektromotor vklopljen, bodite previdni. Pokrovi so občutljivi, še posebej tisti na centrifugi, zaprite jih počasi. Gumbi in splošna funkcija: 1. Na voljo je gumb s časovnikom za pranje do 15 minut. 2. V drugem gumbu sta 2 možnosti pranja: mehko in močno pranje (če sem iskren, ne vidim velike razlike med njima) in ta gumb je tudi za odvajanje vode. Potreboval sem nekaj časa, da sem ugotovil, in malo poplave. lol 3. Gumb centrifuge je v veliki meri odvisen od časa (5 min). Druge stvari: v pralnem stroju je plastični pokrovček, bodite pozorni, ko odprete škatlo, ker se boste morda vprašali, čemu je ta plastika namenjena, vendar ste jo samo dali na perilo za sušenje v predelu centrifuge , da ne "odletijo". Navodila za pranje, ki so pri meni delovala: na pranje sem dal le en težak kos z nekaj drugimi kosi, rekel bi, da je pulover/brisača težak kos. Brez problema dam kup nogavic in spodnjega perila ter lahkih majic. Če menite, da ima pralni stroj težave s premikanjem oblačil, odstranite enega od kosov, vendar najprej nalijte več vode, ker včasih manjka le malo vode, vendar ne prekoračite črte, ker brizga povsod. Tako čez noč pustim majhno količino oblačil z vodo in razkužilom (sagrotan, dettol ali impresan), nato pa zjutraj to vodo sperem in uporabim običajno milo, naredim 15 minut in nato ponovim ta cikel, da naredim polovico uro, vendar počakam kakšnih 15 minut in počnem druge stvari, ker se majhen motor stroja segreje in nočem, da se pregreje. Mislim, da je za predmete, ki so relativno čisti, dovolj 15 minut. Nato to vodo sperem in spet dam vodo z razkužilom ter sperem. Torej skupaj 2 pranji in izpiranje. Voda, ki priteče ven, vsebuje malo niti in blaga/barve. Zato postavite majhen filter na konec drenažne cevi. Očistite stroj med uporabo, ker bo na dnu tudi nekaj niti. Perem: belo, bež/rumeno, roza/rdeče/oranžno, rjavo in zeleno, svetlo modro/svetlo sivo, samo temno modro, samo črno, samo temno sivo. Mehke tkanine z mehkimi tkaninami. Močne tkanine z močnimi tkaninami. Rada imam žive barve, zato ne mešam toliko barv, zato mi je ta pralni stroj ljubši, ker je majhen in imam majhne količine različnih barv. Centrifugiram težo ene ženske majice in 2 nogavic 5 minut, 2x. In potem pustim, da se mali motor ohladi in dokončam vsa oblačila. Ponavadi vmes počnem še kaj drugega. Če se sliši čudno, je neuravnotežen in ga morate odpreti ter bolje namestiti oblačila. Včasih na vrh položim težko vrečko riža, da ostane pri miru, ali če imam čas, tam počakam in jo držim. Oblačila so razmeroma suha in jih nato zlikam ali obesim ob radiator. Najpomembnejša stvar je, da je ne preobremenite in ne pregrejete centrifuge. Nekateri ljudje so se pritoževali, da je njihov stroj umazan, moj ni bil, ampak samo prvo pranje na prazno.
